Description

用於改善堆疊式半導體裝置中功率傳送及發信之方法及系統
本技術一般而言係關於堆疊式半導體裝置。本技術之數項實施例係關於藉由在堆疊中之毗鄰半導體晶粒之間形成電容器來改善至堆疊式半導體裝置之功率傳送。
微電子裝置(諸如記憶體裝置、微處理器及發光二極體)通常包含安裝至一基板且包封於一保護性覆蓋物中之一或多個半導體晶粒。半導體晶粒包含功能特徵,諸如記憶體單元、處理器電路、互連電路等。半導體晶粒製造商在日益增加之壓力下減小由半導體晶粒佔據之體積而增加容量及/或產生經囊封總成之速度。為滿足此等需求,半導體晶粒製造商通常將多個半導體晶粒垂直地堆疊於彼此之頂部上以增加一微電子裝置在半導體晶粒所安裝至之電路板或其他元件上之有限體積內之容量或效能。在某些半導體晶粒堆疊中,半導體晶粒使用矽導通孔(TSV)電互連。TSV使半導體晶粒能夠接近於彼此堆疊使得毗鄰半導體晶粒彼此間隔開僅相對較小垂直距離。此連同TSV之相對較低電感一起達成較高資料傳送速率。並且,由於晶粒係垂直堆疊的,因此堆疊之總佔據面積對應於堆疊中 最大晶粒之佔據面積。
然而,半導體晶粒堆疊之一個問題係功率傳送。舉例而言,當半導體晶粒執行高功率操作時,自堆疊中之半導體晶粒汲取之電流可係巨大的,此可導致至(舉例而言)堆疊中之最上部半導體晶粒之不良功率傳送。用於改善半導體晶粒堆疊中之功率傳送之習用方法包含增加堆疊中之每一半導體晶粒之TSV計數以減小功率網路之電阻。然而,增加半導體晶粒之TSV計數通常需要增加半導體晶粒之大小。因此,此項技術中仍需要用於改善半導體晶粒堆疊中之功率傳送之方法及系統。
本發明係關於一種半導體晶粒總成,其包括:一第一半導體晶粒,其具有一下部表面及與該下部表面對置之一上部表面;一第二半導體晶粒,其具有一下部表面及與該下部表面對置之一上部表面,該第二半導體晶粒堆疊於該第一半導體晶粒上方使得該第二半導體晶粒之該下部表面面向該第一半導體晶粒之該上部表面;及一堆疊中間電容器,其具有位於該第一半導體晶粒之該上部表面上之一第一電容器板,位於該第二半導體晶粒之該下部表面上之一第二電容器板,及位於該第一電容器板與該第二電容器板之間的一介電材料。

下文闡述半導體晶粒及半導體晶粒總成之數項實施例之具體細節。在下文所闡述之數項實施例中,一半導體晶粒總成包含一半導體晶粒堆疊,該半導體晶粒堆疊具有形成於堆疊中之每一毗鄰對之半導體晶粒之間的一電容器。在某些實施例中,電容器係平行板電容器,該等平行板電容器包含:(a)一上部板,其形成於每一毗鄰對之半導體晶粒中之一上部者之一下部表面上;(b)一下部板,其形成於每一毗鄰對中之一下部者之一上部表面上;及(c)一介電材料,其位於該等上部板與下部板之間。平行板電容器可儲存局域地位於半導體晶粒堆疊內之電荷。當一個別半導體晶粒對功率具有一需求尖峰時,個別半導體晶粒可自平行板電容器中之一或多者拉挽功率以解決彼需求。此外,在特定實施例中,平行板電容器之板可在不給製造程序添加大量成本或複雜性之情況下形成為現有金屬化程序之部分以用於形成堆疊式半導體晶粒之間的互連。
如本文中所使用,術語「垂直」、「橫向」、「上部」及「下部」可係指鑒於圖中所展示之定向之半導體晶粒及半導體晶粒總成中之特徵之相對方向或位置。舉例而言,「上部」或「最上部」可係指經定位比另一特徵更接近於一頁之頂部之一特徵。然而,此等術語應廣泛地解 釋為包含具有其他定向之半導體晶粒及半導體晶粒總成,諸如翻轉或傾斜定向,其中頂部/底部、上方/下方、上面/下面、上/下及左/右可取決於定向而互換。
圖1係根據本技術之一實施例組態之一半導體晶粒總成100(「總成100」)之一剖面圖。總成100包含由一封裝基板120載運之半導體晶粒110之一堆疊105。封裝基板120可包含一中介層、一印刷電路板、一介電間隔件、另一半導體晶粒(例如,一邏輯晶粒)或另一適合基板。封裝基板120連接至將總成100電耦合至外部電路(未展示)之電連接器122(例如,焊料球)。在某些實施例中,總成100可在封裝基板120與半導體晶粒110中之一最下部者之間包含一中介層、另一邏輯晶粒或其他適合結構。
半導體晶粒110可各自具有積體電路或組件、資料儲存元件、處理組件及/或製造於半導體基板上之其他特徵。舉例而言,半導體晶粒110可包含積體記憶體電路及/或邏輯電路,該等積體記憶體電路及/或邏輯電路可包含各種類型之半導體組件及功能特徵,諸如動態隨機存取記憶體(DRAM)、靜態隨機存取記憶體(SRAM)、快閃記憶體、其他形式之積體電路記憶體、處理電路、成像組件及/或其他半導體特徵。在某些實施例中,半導體晶粒110可係完全相同的(例如,經製造具有相同設計及規範之記憶體晶粒),但在其他實施例中,半導體晶粒110可彼此不同(例如,不同類型之記憶體晶粒或控制器晶粒、邏輯晶粒及/或記憶體晶粒之一組合)。此外,儘管總成100包含堆疊於封裝基板120上之四個半導體晶粒110,但在其他實施例中總成100可包含少於四個半導體晶粒(例如,2個晶粒或3個晶粒)或多於4個晶粒(例如,5個晶粒,6個晶粒、8個晶粒、12個晶粒、16個晶粒、32個晶粒等)。
如圖1中進一步展示,半導體晶粒110各自具有一上部表面113a及與上部表面113a對置之一下部表面113b(統稱為「表面113a、113b」)。半導體晶粒110中之某些半導體晶粒可進一步包含至少實質上延伸穿過半導體晶粒110(例如,穿過其一半導體基板)之複數個導通體112(例如,矽導通孔(TSV))。在某些實施例中,每一導通體112包含完全穿過一個別半導體晶粒110之一導電材料(例如,銅),及環繞導電材料以將導通體112與其餘半導體晶粒110電隔離之一電絕緣材料。更特定而言,導通體112可完全延伸穿過半導體晶粒110使得每一導通體112之一上部部分暴露在一個別半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a處,且導通體112之一下部部分暴露在個別半導體晶粒110之下部表面113b處。以此方式,導通體112經組態以用於機械連接及/或電連接至堆疊105中之其他半導體晶粒110及/或封裝基板120。如圖1之實施例中所圖解說明,堆疊105中之最上部半導體晶粒110可不具備導通體,此乃因穿過最上部半導體晶粒110之電連接(例如,位於最上部半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a處)可係不必要的。在其他實施例中,最上部半導體晶粒110亦可包含複數個導通體112,(舉例而言)以准許將最上部半導體晶粒110電耦合至最上部半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a處之其他電路(例如,額外半導體晶粒、較高階電路等)。在又其他實施例中,可在不使用TSV之情況下使用熟習此項技術者眾所周知之其他互連方法(包含例如搭迭式線接合、面對面互連等)將半導體晶粒110電耦合在一起。
總成100進一步包含在堆疊105中之毗鄰半導體晶粒110之間延伸且電耦合堆疊105中之毗鄰半導體晶粒110之複數個導電互連件130。互連件130可各自包含一上部金屬化特徵132、一下部金屬化特徵 134及耦合上部金屬化特徵132及下部金屬化特徵134(統稱為「金屬化特徵132、134」)之一導電元件136。導電元件136可包括一焊料材料,舉例而言錫銀、銦或用於在毗鄰半導體晶粒110上之金屬化特徵132、134之間形成一電連接及機械連接之另一適合焊料材料。在其他實施例中,導電元件136可由其他適合材料製成及/或具有不同結構(例如,銅柱、凸塊上氮化物結構等)。
大體而言,金屬化特徵132、134可係如此項技術中已知之任何適合凸塊下金屬(UBM)結構且電耦合至半導體晶粒110之導通體112中之對應者。上部金屬化特徵132形成於堆疊105中之一對毗鄰半導體晶粒110中之一上部半導體晶粒110之下部表面113b上。類似地,下部金屬化特徵134形成於該對毗鄰半導體晶粒中之一下部半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a上。更特定而言,如圖1中所展示,上部金屬化特徵132可形成於導通體112之下部部分上方、在該對毗鄰半導體晶粒中之上部半導體晶粒110之下部表面113b處暴露出。同樣地,下部金屬化特徵134可形成於導通體112之上部部分上方、在該對毗鄰半導體晶粒中之下部半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a處暴露出。因此,互連件130(亦即,上部金屬化特徵132、導電元件及下部金屬化特徵134)可與該對毗鄰半導體晶粒中之一對導通體112軸向對準且電耦合該對導通體。然而,在其他實施例中,互連件130未必與導通體112軸向對準。舉例而言,該對毗鄰半導體晶粒中之下部及/或上部半導體晶粒110上之一重佈層(RDL)或其他導電結構可提供毗鄰半導體晶粒之導通體112與金屬化特徵132、134之間的一不同對準及耦合。
金屬化特徵132、134可包括諸如(舉例而言)銅、鎳、金、 矽、鎢等適合導電材料中之任一者或組合,且可具有約1微米至100微米(例如,小於約10微米)之間的一厚度(例如,高度)。此外,金屬化特徵132、134之形狀及尺寸可變化。舉例而言,在某些實施例中金屬化特徵132、134具有一實質上圓柱形剖面形狀且形成柱狀結構。在其他實施例中,金屬化特徵132、134可具有其他剖面形狀,諸如矩形、正多邊形、不規則多邊形、橢圓形等。
總成100進一步包含複數個上部電容器板142及複數個下部電容器板144(統稱為「電容器板142、144」)。每一上部電容器板142形成於堆疊105中之一對毗鄰半導體晶粒110中之一上部半導體晶粒110之下部表面113b上,且每一下部電容器板144形成於該對毗鄰半導體晶粒中之一下部半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a上。如圖1之實施例中所圖解說明,每一上部電容器板142面向一對應下部電容器板144且至少部分地與對應下部電容器板144對準。舉例而言,如圖1中所展示,每一上部電容器板142疊加於毗鄰下部半導體晶粒110上之對應下部電容器板144上方(例如,電容器板142、144實質上關於在毗鄰半導體晶粒之間延伸之一平面反射對稱)。電容器板142、144中之至少一者電耦合至一電源供應器而另一者電耦合至接地。舉例而言(如圖2A及圖2B中所展示),電容器板142、144可各自經由形成於半導體晶粒110之表面113a、113b上之導電跡線電耦合至互連件130中之一或多者,從而提供一功率或接地信號。在其他實施例中,電容器板142、144可使用其他適合電連接器(諸如線接合)電耦合至電源供應器或接地。因此,可在形成於堆疊105中之每一對毗鄰半導體晶粒110之間的相對電容器板142、144之間提供一電壓差。
如下文參考圖4A至圖4C進一步闡述,電容器板142、144 可作為用於形成金屬化特徵132、134(例如,在相同處理階段處及/或同時)之金屬化程序一擴展而形成。因此,由於其可由相同程序形成,金屬化特徵132、134及電容器板142、144之特性中之至少某些特性可係相同的或實質上類似。舉例而言,金屬化特徵132、134可分別具有與電容器板142、144相同或實質上類似之一厚度。類似地,金屬化特徵132、134可包括與電容器板142、144相同之材料(例如,銅、鎳、金、矽、鎢等)。
總成100可進一步包含圍繞及/或在半導體晶粒110、互連件130及電容器板142、144之間沈積或以其他方式形成以電隔離此等組件及/或增強堆疊105中之半導體晶粒110之間的機械連接之一介電材料150。介電材料150可係一非導電環氧樹脂膏、一毛細管底部填充物、一非導電膜、一模製底部填充物及/或包含其他適合電絕緣材料。
總之,每一對相對電容器板142、144及其間之介電材料150形成一堆疊中間電容器(例如,一平行板電容器),該堆疊中間電容器儲存堆疊105內之電荷。儲存於每一平行板電容器上之電荷與電容器之電容(C)成比例,C=k A/d,其中「k」係板之間的介電材料之相對介電常數,「」係真空介電常數,「A」係電容器板之面積且「d」係電容器板之間的間隔。在某些實施例中,總成100中形成之堆疊中間電容器各自具有10's至100's微微法拉(例如,多於約100微微法拉)之一電容。此外,由於電容(及因此由電容器儲存之電荷)與電容器板142、144之間的距離成反比,因此電容可隨著堆疊105中之半導體晶粒110之間的垂直距離(例如,間隔)減小而增加。堆疊105中之半導體晶粒110之間的間隔很大程度上取決於互連件130之大小。因此,隨著技術發展到減小互連件130之大小且藉此減小總成100之總高度,本文中所闡述之堆疊中間電容器之電容 可相應地增加。此外,在某些實施例中,可基於介電材料150之介電品質(例如,其相對介電常數或其他特性)來選擇介電材料150以便增加堆疊中間電容器之電容。
一般而言,堆疊105中之每一堆疊中間電容器給堆疊105之功率網路添加電容,在需要時該電容可由半導體晶粒110汲取出。舉例而言,當堆疊105中之一個別半導體晶粒110對功率具有一需求尖峰時(例如,當個別半導體晶粒110執行一功率密集型操作(諸如起始一存取、讀取操作等)時),個別半導體晶粒110可自堆疊中間電容器中之一或多者汲取其所需求功率中之某些功率。堆疊中間電容器提供比一外部電源供應器更局域化之一電源,該電源之功率必須路由通過封裝基板120且向上通過導通體112及互連件130。因此,堆疊中間電容器可快速地解決半導體晶粒110之某些短期功率需求,回應於此,電源供應器可取決於堆疊105中之其他半導體晶粒110(例如,堆疊中之下部半導體晶粒)之功率需求而變慢。用以改善一半導體晶粒堆疊之功率傳送之習用方法會增加堆疊中之每一半導體晶粒之TSV計數以包含較多功率及接地連接以藉此減小功率網路之電阻。然而,增加半導體晶粒之TSV計數需要增加半導體晶粒之大小。本技術有利地在不增加TSV計數及/或半導體晶粒110之大小之情況下增加總成100中之功率網路之電容使得總成100可較佳地滿足堆疊105中之半導體晶粒110之功率需求。
此外,給功率網路添加電容可改善傳輸穿過位於導通體112中之一或多者上之堆疊105之信號之信號完整性及/或半導體晶粒110之效能。舉例而言,堆疊中間電容器可充當解耦電容器以分流否則可透過堆疊105載運(例如,電壓尖峰或由堆疊中之其他晶粒導致之接地反射)且可 阻礙半導體晶粒110之效能之雜訊。堆疊中間電容器亦可幫助解決電感響鈴(例如,由於記憶體裝置中之封裝自電感之響鈴)問題。舉例而言,堆疊中間電容器可幫助最小化電源供應器及接地連接之導電路徑藉此改善半導體晶粒110之效能。
如圖1中所展示,一堆疊中間電容器形成於堆疊105中之每一對毗鄰半導體晶粒110之間。堆疊中間電容器可並聯或串聯或者以其某種組合形式電耦合。然而,在某些實施例中,堆疊105可僅具備一個形成於一單個對之毗鄰半導體晶粒110之間的堆疊中間電容器或具備任何其他數目個堆疊中間電容器。在某些實施例中,可藉由以下操作在封裝基板120與堆疊105中之最下部半導體晶粒110之間形成一額外電容器:(a)在封裝基板120上提供一下部電容器板144、(b)在最下部半導體晶粒110之下部表面113b上提供一對應上部電容器板142及(c)在下部電容器板144與上部電容器板142之間提供一介電材料(例如,介電材料150)。類似地,在某些實施例中,一電容器可形成於堆疊105中之最上部半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a與連接至其之任何外部組件之間。
圖2A及圖2B分別係根據本技術之實施例之圖1中所展示之總成100之半導體晶粒110中之一者之一俯視平面圖及仰視平面圖,其中在半導體晶粒110之表面113a、113b中之每一者上具有金屬化特徵及一電容器板。所圖解說明半導體晶粒110可係堆疊105之中間中之半導體晶粒110中之一者(例如,在上面及下面皆具有一毗鄰半導體晶粒110),此乃因堆疊105中之最下部半導體晶粒110及最頂部半導體晶粒110可分別經形成在其下部表面113b及上部表面113a上無一電容器板及/或金屬化特徵(如圖1中所圖解說明)。
更特定而言,圖2A圖解說明具有一或多個周邊區域216(例如,橫向外側區域)及一中心區域218的半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a。下部金屬化特徵134形成於周邊區域216上,且下部電容器板144形成於上部表面113a之中心區域218上。下部電容器板144可經由導電跡線238(個別地展示為導電跡線238a及238b)電耦合至下部金屬化特徵134中之一或多者。舉例而言,如圖2A之實施例中所圖解說明,下部電容器板144可經由導電跡線238a電耦合至一第一下部金屬化特徵134a且經由導電跡線238b電耦合至一第二下部金屬化特徵134b。第一下部金屬化特徵134a及第二下部金屬化特徵134b可電耦合至接地或電耦合至一電源供應器。在某些實施例中,導電跡線238形成為與下部金屬化特徵134及下部電容器板144相同之金屬化程序之部分。
圖2B圖解說明具有一或多個周邊區域226(例如,橫向外側區域)及一中心區域228之半導體晶粒110之下部表面113b。上部金屬化特徵132形成於周邊區域226上,且上部電容器板142形成於下部表面113b之中心區域228上。上部電容器板142可經由導電跡線248(個別地展示為導電跡線248a及248b)電耦合至上部金屬化特徵132中之一或多者。舉例而言,如圖2B之實施例中所圖解說明,上部電容器板142可經由導電跡線248a電耦合至一第一上部金屬化特徵132a且經由導電跡線248b電耦合至一第二上部金屬化特徵132b。第一上部金屬化特徵132a及第二上部金屬化特徵132b可電耦合至接地或電耦合至一電源供應器。在某些實施例中,導電跡線248形成為與上部金屬化特徵132及上部電容器板142相同之金屬化程序之部分。
在某些實施例中,電容器板142、144可電耦合至半導體晶 粒110之相同導通體(圖1)。因此,電容器板142、144可即電耦合至接地又電耦合至電源供應器。在此等實施例中,堆疊105中之每一交替半導體晶粒110可具備電容器板142、144之相同組態使得在形成於堆疊105中之毗鄰對之半導體晶粒110之間的相對電容器板142、144之間存在一電壓差。然而,在其他實施例中,半導體晶粒110上之電容器板142、144可電耦合至導通體112中之不同者(例如,單獨者)使得電容器板142、144中之一者電耦合至接地,而另一者電耦合至電源供應器。舉例而言,在此等實施例中,堆疊105中之每一上部電容器板142可電耦合至電源供應器而每一下部電容器板144電耦合至接地。
一起參考圖2A及圖2B兩者,電容器板142、144可經形成以分別填充尚未由金屬化特徵132、134佔據之表面113b、113a之一實質區。舉例而言,如圖2A及圖2B兩者中所圖解說明,半導體晶粒110可具有在表面113a、113b之周邊區域216、226處配置成列之金屬化特徵132、134。藉由在中心區域218、228上形成電容器板142、144且具有一矩形剖面(例如,一矩形平面形狀),電容器板142、144可佔據未由金屬化特徵132、134(其位置可限制於導通體112之一位置)佔據之表面113a、113b之一實質區。舉例而言,在某些實施例中,電容器板142、144可分別覆蓋大於半導體晶粒110之表面113a、113b之表面面積之約25%之一面積。在某些實施例中,電容器板142、144可覆蓋大於表面113a、113b之表面面積之約50%之一面積。在又其他實施例中,電容器板142、144可覆蓋大於表面113a、113b之表面面積之約75%之一面積。然而,電容器板142、144之覆蓋範圍不受限制且電容器板142、144可覆蓋表面113a、113b之任何適合部分。此外,在特定實施例中,金屬化特徵132、134可形成於半 導體晶粒110之一不同區域上且可具有不同配置。在此等實施例中,電容器板之大小、形狀及定位可經選擇以匹配金屬化特徵132、134之佈局。
舉例而言,圖3A及圖3B分別係根據本技術之另一實施例之總成100之半導體晶粒110中之一者之一俯視平面圖及仰視平面圖,其中在半導體晶粒110之表面113a、113b上具有金屬化特徵與電容器板之一不同配置。一起參考圖3A及圖3B兩者,金屬化特徵132、134分別配置成沿著表面113b、113a均勻地間隔開之列。金屬化特徵132、134可以此方式配置(舉例而言)以匹配半導體晶粒110之導通體(例如,導通體112)之配置。如圖3A中所展示,一下部電容器板344於形成半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a上且經由導電跡線338電耦合至下部金屬化特徵134中之一或多者(例如,對應於功率或接地)。類似地,如圖3B中所展示,一上部電容器板342形成於半導體晶粒110之下部表面113b上且經由導電跡線348電耦合至上部金屬化特徵132中之一或多者(例如,對應於功率或接地)。在某些實施例中,上部電容器板342及下部電容器板344兩者皆電耦合至半導體晶粒110之相同導通體112(圖1)(例如,使得兩個板皆接地或使得兩個板皆連接至一電源供應器),而在其他實施例中,上部電容器板342及下部電容器板344電耦合至導通體112中之不同者(例如,使得該等板中之一者接地而另一者連接至電源供應器)。此外,上部電容器板342及下部電容器板344兩者皆具有一大體直線形狀且圍繞金屬化特徵132、134形成於開口表面面積之一實質部分上。假定金屬化特徵132、134之佈局,此一配置通常可允許上部電容器板342及下部電容器板344具有最大面積。
一般而言,本文中所闡述之電容器板之大小、形狀及定位可經選擇以最大化或幾乎最大化電容器板之面積,以便增加形成於一晶粒 堆疊中之堆疊中間電容器之電容。更特定而言,每一電容器板可形成於尚未由金屬化特徵佔據的一半導體晶粒之開口表面區上。因此,本文中所闡述之電容器板可適用於其形成於上面之半導體晶粒之特定組態(例如,適用於導通體、金屬化特徵及/或其他特徵之配置),同時亦給晶粒總成添加少許或不附加額外負荷(例如,不增加晶粒總成之平面大小或厚度)。
此外,每一半導體晶粒可在其一表面上包含一單個電容器板(如結合上文之數項實施例所闡述)或在其一表面上包含一個以上電容器板。舉例而言,假定現有金屬化結構,如本文中所闡述之一半導體晶粒可包含多個離散電容器板以匹配半導體晶粒之表面上可用之空間。離散電容器板可係電耦合(例如,經由導電跡線)或電隔離的。在某些實施例中,毗鄰半導體晶粒可各自在其面向表面上具有多個離散電容器板以便在毗鄰半導體晶粒之間形成多個離散平行板電容器。多個平行板電容器可獨立於彼此操作,或可並聯連接、串聯連接等。
圖4A至圖4C係根據本技術之實施例之圖解說明製造其上形成有金屬化特徵及電容器板之一半導體晶粒之一方法中之各種階段之剖面圖。在圖4A至圖4C中所圖解說明之實施例中,複數個半導體晶粒110可形成於一基板總成400之離散區處(例如,一半導體晶圓或面板)。基板總成400包含一半導體材料460及半導體材料460之一上部側上之一介電材料462。儘管圖4A至圖4C中僅圖解說明一單個半導體晶粒110,但在實踐中基板總成400通常具有數百個或甚至超過1,000個個別半導體晶粒。
參考圖4A,在此處理階段處,半導體材料460中已形成導通體112。如熟習此項技術者將易於理解,可藉由將一高縱橫比孔蝕刻至半導體材料460中且在一或多個沈積及/或電鍍步驟中用一或多種材料填充 該高縱橫比孔來製成導通體112舉例而言,在圖4A中所展示之實施例中,導通體112包含一介電襯裡464及介電襯裡464內之一導電插塞466。如圖4A中進一步展示,導通體112之上部部分暴露在半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a處。
圖4B圖解說明在導通體112之上部部分上方形成下部金屬化特徵134及在半導體晶粒110之上部表面113a上形成下部電容器板144之後之基板總成400。值得注意地,下部電容器板144可作為用於形成下部金屬化特徵134之金屬化程序之一擴展而形成。金屬化程序可係此項技術中已知之任何適合金屬化程序(例如,一前側金屬化或凸塊下金屬化程序)。舉例而言,在某些實施例中,下部金屬化特徵134係藉由以下操作形成:將一銅晶種結構沈積至介電材料462及導通體112之上部部分上、在具有與導通體112之上部部分對準之開口之銅晶種結構上形成一遮罩、將銅電鍍至晶種結構上、且然後在銅上方電鍍一或多種其他材料以形成下部金屬化特徵134。下部電容器板144可藉由調整遮罩圖案以包含對應於下部電容器板144之一所要形狀、位置及大小之一或多個開口及將下部電容器板144連接至下部金屬化特徵134中之一或多者之任何跡線(例如,圖2A中之跡線238)而形成為此一程序之部分。在某些實施例中,在形成下部金屬化特徵134及下部電容器板144(在某些實施例中,以及導電元件136)之後,移除遮罩且使用一適合濕式蝕刻移除晶種結構之經暴露部分以將下部金屬化特徵134與下部電容器板144隔離。
圖4C圖解說明以下操作之後之基板總成400:(a)將半導體材料460薄化以暴露半導體晶粒110之下部表面113b及導通體112之下部部分(例如,使用背面研磨、乾式蝕刻程序、化學蝕刻程序、化學機械拋光 (CMP)等);(b)在半導體材料460之一下部側上形成一介電材料468;(c)在導通體112之下部部分上方形成上部金屬化特徵132;及(d)在半導體晶粒110之下部表面113b上形成上部電容器板142。上部電容器板142可作為用於形成上部金屬化特徵132之金屬化程序之一擴展而形成,該金屬化程序可係此項技術中已知之任何適合程序(例如,一背側金屬化或凸塊下金屬化程序)。在某些實施例中,用於形成下部金屬化特徵134及下部電容器板144之金屬化程序可係與用於形成上部金屬化特徵132及上部電容器板142相同之金屬化程序。在其他實施例中,該等程序可係不同的。舉例而言,不需要針對堆疊中之最上部晶粒及最下部晶粒執行圖4A至圖4C中所圖解說明之階段中之至少某些階段,該等最上部晶粒及最下部晶粒可經形成在至少一個表面不具有電容器板及/或金屬化特徵。一旦完成對基板總成400之處理,半導體晶粒110便可自基板總成400單粒化且併入至一晶粒總成(例如,圖1中所展示之總成100)中。
值得注意地,可在不給用於形成金屬化特徵132、134之現有方法添加顯著額外成本或複雜性之情況下形成電容器板142、144,此乃因電容器板142、144可作為彼等方法之一擴展而形成。同樣地,導電跡線(例如,圖2A至圖3B中所展示之跡線238/248及338/348)亦可容易地形成為相同方法之部分,以用於將電容器板142、144電耦合至對應金屬化特徵132、134以在板之間提供一適合電壓差。
可將具有上文參考圖1至圖4C所闡述之特徵之半導體裝置中之任一者併入至無數較大及/或較複雜系統中之任何者中,該等系統之一代表性實例係圖5中示意性地展示之系統500。系統500可包含一處理器502、一記憶體504(例如,SRAM、DRAM、快閃及/或其他記憶體裝 置)、輸入/輸出裝置505及/或其他子系統或組件508。上文參考圖1至圖4C所闡述之半導體晶粒總成100及半導體晶粒110可包含於圖5中所展示之元件中之任何者中。所得系統500可經組態以執行各種各樣之適合計算、處理、儲存、感測、成像及/或其他功能中之任何者。因此,系統500之代表性實例包含(但不限於)電腦及/或其他資料處理器,諸如桌上型電腦、膝上型電腦、網際網路器具、手持式裝置(例如,掌上型電腦、隨身電腦、蜂巢式或行動電話、個人數位助理、音樂播放器等)、平板電腦、多處理器系統、基於處理器或可程式化消費性電子器件、網路電腦及小型電腦。系統500之額外代表性實例包含燈、相機、運載工具等。關於此等及其他實例,系統500可裝納於一單個單元中或跨越多個經互連單元分佈(例如,透過一通信網路)。因此,系統500之組件可包含本端及/或遠端記憶體儲存裝置及各種各樣之適合電腦可讀媒體中之任何者。
依據前述內容,將瞭解,雖然本文中已出於圖解說明的目的而闡述本技術之特定實施例,但可在不背離本發明之情況下做出各種修改。因此,本發明不受除所附申請專利範圍以外之任何限制。此外,亦可在其他實施例中組合或消除在特定實施例之內容脈絡中所闡述之新技術之特定態樣。此外,儘管已在本新技術之特定實施例之內容脈絡中闡述與彼等實施例相關聯之優點,但其他實施例亦可展現此等優點且並非所有實施例皆必須展現此等優點以歸屬於本技術之範疇內。因此,本發明及相關聯技術可囊括本文中未明確展示或闡述之其他實施例。
