Definitions

  • the field relates to structures with through-substrate vias and methods for forming the same.
  • a semiconductor element such as integrated device dies or chips, may be mounted or stacked on other elements.
  • a semiconductor element can be mounted to a carrier, such as a package substrate, an interposer, a reconstituted wafer or element, or other semiconductor element.
  • a semiconductor element can be stacked on top of another semiconductor element, e.g., a first integrated device die can be stacked on a second integrated device die.
  • a through-substrate via can extend vertically through a thickness of the semiconductor element to transfer electrical signals through the semiconductor element, e.g., from a first surface of the semiconductor element to a second opposing surface of the semiconductor element.
  • FIG. 1A-1F show conventional processing steps for forming TSVs in an element.
  • Figure 2 shows an etch depth map of a processed wafer.
  • Figures 3A and 3B are example wafer maps of etched wafers.
  • Figures 4A-4I illustrate a method for forming a microelectronic structure, according to various embodiments.
  • Figures 5A-I illustrate a method for forming a microelectronic structure, according to various embodiments.
  • Figures 6A-6H illustrate a method for forming a microelectronic structure, according to various embodiments.
  • FIGS 1A-F illustrate various conventional processing steps for forming TSVs in a microelectronic structure.
  • the formation of TSVs can be performed using via-middle or front side via-last processing methods. Both of these methods are high volume manufacturing processes for different dies, including e.g. 40 um thick dies. Both of these processes involve etching through the TSVs into the bulk silicon after integrated circuit fabrication.
  • Technical challenges of these processes increase with a reduction in the die thickness. These challenges can include TSV etch uniformity, die thickness uniformity, and the overall quality of the backside dielectric layer that is formed.
  • the microelectronic structure comprises a portion of a semiconductor wafer 102.
  • the illustrated via structures comprise via-middle structures in which active circuitry 106, e.g., transistors or other active circuit elements, can be formed on or in the active surface of a bulk semiconductor portion 102, one or more insulating layers 112 and 113 can be formed over the active circuitry 106, and an opening 104 for the TSV can be formed through the one or more insulating layers 112 and 113 and a portion of the bulk semiconductor portion 102.
  • a metallization layer 110 for instance a back-end-of line (BEOL) or redistribution layer (RDL), can be provided over or within one or more insulating layers.
  • BEOL back-end-of line
  • RDL redistribution layer
  • a via structure 108 can be provided.
  • the via structure 108 can extend into the opening and over insulating layers 112 and 113.
  • a conductive pad 114 can be provided over one or more of the insulating layers and electrically connected to the metallization layer 110.
  • Conductive overburden from electroplating the via structure 108 in Figure IB can be removed (e.g., polished away) in Figure 1C.
  • a conductive pad 117 can be provided over the one or more insulating layers 112 and 113 and electrically connected to the via structure 108.
  • the conductive pad 117 can also be configured to electrically connect to another element.
  • the conductive pad 117 can be part of a BEOL or RDL.
  • a frontside of the microelectronic structure 114 can be attached to a carrier 120 by way of an adhesive 118.
  • the carrier 120 can comprise a temporary handle wafer that is used to support the microelectronic structure 114 during processing.
  • the adhesive 118 can comprise an organic adhesive and can be sensitive to high temperatures. Accordingly, the use of the adhesive 118 to attach the carrier 120 to the microelectronic structure 114 may limit the temperatures that can be applied during processing. In other embodiments, however, the carrier 120 can be directly bonded to the frontside of the microelectronic structure 114 without an adhesive 118.
  • a dielectric layer 122 may be deposited on the back side surface of the semiconductor 124.
  • a backside metallization layer 116 for instance a back-end-of line (BEOL) or redistribution layer (RDL), can be provided over the dielectric layer 122 and can be configured to electrically connect to the via structure 108.
  • BEOL back-end-of line
  • RDL redistribution layer
  • the conventional via formation process has several problems that lead to non-uniform via lengths.
  • the etch process used to form the openings for the vias is non-uniform across the substrate, e.g., wafer, particularly for the high aspect ratio openings used for vias, which leads to via openings having different depths.
  • This nonuniformity in produced vias causes yield loss during the TSV reveal process.
  • dielectric deposition which is part of the TSV reveal process, may be limited by the temporary bond material used to adhere the die to a carrier. The adhesive limits the backside dielectric deposition temperature and can cause various processing complications.
  • temporary bond layer thickness non-uniformity can add to the thinned silicon wafer thickness uniformity.
  • the etch process that is used to form the via openings can have a non-uniformity of approximately 7 microns.

Wafer thickness variation can also cause some TSVs to be rendered ineffective and lead to lower levels of process control.
  • the lengths of the TSVs may vary considerably across the wafer after grinding the backside of the semiconductor portion to reveal the TSVs. Accordingly, as the backside of the bulk semiconductor portion is ground or otherwise thinned, the exposed vias may protrude from the backside of the thinned semiconductor portion by varying lengths and some vias, as explained above, may remain unexposed and buried in the semiconductor portion.
  • one or more backside dielectric layers can be provided over the backside of the semiconductor portion and over the TSVs.

  • TSV can have a typical depth variation of 2 to 4 um over a 300 mm wafer out of a total of a 55 um depth. This variation in depth may create challenges for achieving uniform surface bonding. Moreover, non uniform TSVs can cause breakage during processing leading to lower yields. Silicon wafers may be planarized using chemical mechanical processing (CMP) planarization. Some TSVs may be broken off during CMP planarization. This breaking may be in part caused by excessive TSV reveal which often is caused by the depth variation in TSVs.

  • backside TSV processing has not been used for direct bonding in high volume manufacturing.
  • Conventional procedures for planarizing TSVs on the back side of wafers may also rely on patterning copper pads and adding solder bumps to the wafers.
  • Conventional backside processing also does not protect against breaking off of TSVs and may not achieve planarity suitable for direct bonding.
  • These processes may not be suitable for high volume manufacturing because of the length of polishing time, the number of polish cycles - which may range from 4 to 6 cycles and take up to 2 hours of machine time, the amount of material that is deposited (5 um), the amount of material removed (2-4 um depending on the oxide deposited), and the total annealing time used between polishes (3-5 one hour annealing cycles).
