在半导体器件的制作过程中,通过刻孔工艺可在晶圆中形成孔结构(包括通孔和/或盲孔)。During the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices, hole structures (including through holes and/or blind holes) can be formed in the wafer through a hole etching process.

In the process of forming the second blind hole, since the first filling structure is formed in the first blind hole and the first mask structure covers the first filling structure, the first mask structure and the first filling structure can be better protected. The sidewalls and bottom of the first blind hole reduce the probability that the formed first blind hole is exposed to the etching environment, which is beneficial to ensuring a better shape of the sidewall of the first blind hole and reducing the risk of the first blind hole being exposed to the etching environment. The probability of the hole being further etched makes the actual depth of the first blind hole closer to the design depth, which is beneficial to improving the process stability of through-silicon via engraving.
进一步地,若需要在不同的第一晶圆中形成第一盲孔和第二盲孔时,可重复利用包括掩膜开口的第一掩膜结构,即第一掩膜结构可以重复使用。如此,可减少后续加工对第一掩膜结构的用量需求,降低了半导体器件的制作成本。Furthermore, if it is necessary to form the first blind hole and the second blind hole in different first wafers, the first mask structure including the mask opening can be reused, that is, the first mask structure can be reused. In this way, the demand for the first mask structure in subsequent processing can be reduced, and the manufacturing cost of the semiconductor device can be reduced.

随着半导体技术的发展,集成电路的特征尺寸不断缩小,器件互连密度不断提高。传统的二维封装已经不能满足业界的需求,因此基于硅通孔(Through Silicon Via,TSV)垂直互连的转接板封装方式以其短距离互连、高密度集成以及低成本的关键技术优势,逐渐引领了封装技术的发展。With the development of semiconductor technology, the characteristic size of integrated circuits continues to shrink, and the density of device interconnections continues to increase. Traditional two-dimensional packaging can no longer meet the needs of the industry. Therefore, the adapter board packaging method based on through silicon via (TSV) vertical interconnection has its key technical advantages of short-distance interconnection, high-density integration and low cost. , gradually leading the development of packaging technology.
通过执行两次刻孔工艺可在晶圆中形成两种不同深度的硅通孔。在执行第一次刻孔工艺之后,且在执行第二次刻孔工艺之前,形成覆盖晶圆、第一硅通孔侧壁和底部的光刻胶层。通过执行曝光和显影工艺,形成图案化的光刻胶层,根据光刻胶层中的图案执行第二次刻孔工艺,以在晶圆中形成第二硅通孔。Two different depths of through-silicon vias can be formed in the wafer by performing two drilling processes. After performing the first hole etching process and before performing the second hole etching process, a photoresist layer covering the wafer, the sidewalls and the bottom of the first through silicon via is formed. By performing an exposure and development process, a patterned photoresist layer is formed, and a second hole-engraving process is performed according to the pattern in the photoresist layer to form a second through-silicon via in the wafer.
这里,第一硅通孔和第二硅通孔可以用作透光结构,即允许光线通过。或者,可向第一硅通孔和第二硅通孔中填充导电材料,以形成导电的互连结构,互连结构用于实现两个功能结构之间的电连接。Here, the first through silicon via and the second through silicon via can be used as light-transmitting structures, that is, allowing light to pass through. Alternatively, the first through silicon via and the second through silicon via can be filled with conductive material to form a conductive interconnection structure, and the interconnection structure is used to realize electrical connection between two functional structures.
然而,上述在执行第一次刻孔工艺之后形成的第一硅通孔的侧壁几乎垂直于第一硅通孔的底部,覆盖第一硅通孔侧壁的光刻胶可能会脱落,在执行第二次刻孔工艺时,由于第一硅通孔侧壁的光刻胶脱落,第一硅通孔的侧壁暴露于刻蚀环境中,导致第一硅通孔的侧壁损伤。However, the sidewalls of the first through silicon hole formed after performing the first hole etching process are almost perpendicular to the bottom of the first through silicon hole, and the photoresist covering the sidewalls of the first through silicon hole may fall off. When performing the second hole-engraving process, the photoresist on the sidewall of the first through-silicon hole falls off, and the sidewall of the first through-silicon hole is exposed to the etching environment, causing damage to the sidewall of the first through-silicon hole.
相关技术中,通过在第二硅通孔的预设位置处先形成凸点,在执行第一次刻孔工艺之后,去除该凸点以显露晶圆,并对该凸点显露的晶圆执行第二次刻孔工艺。如此,无需涂覆光刻胶层,即避免了覆盖第一硅通孔侧壁的光刻胶的脱落。In the related art, a bump is first formed at a preset position of the second through-silicon via, and after the first hole-engraving process is performed, the bump is removed to expose the wafer, and the wafer with the bump exposed is The second hole engraving process. In this way, there is no need to apply a photoresist layer, which prevents the photoresist covering the sidewall of the first through silicon hole from falling off.
然而,上述去除凸点再执行第二次刻孔工艺的方案中,在执行第一次刻孔工艺之后第一硅通孔达到设计深度时,在执行第二次刻孔工艺的过程中,由于第一硅通孔未受到保护,第一硅通孔暴露于刻蚀环境中,导致第一硅通孔的实际深度增加(即大于第一硅通孔的设计深度),降低了硅通孔刻孔的工艺稳定 性。However, in the above-mentioned solution of removing the bumps and then performing the second hole-engraving process, when the first through-silicon hole reaches the designed depth after the first hole-engraving process is performed, during the second hole-engraving process, due to The first through silicon via is not protected, and the first through silicon via is exposed to the etching environment, causing the actual depth of the first through silicon via to increase (that is, greater than the design depth of the first through silicon via), reducing the cost of through silicon via etching. Hole process stability.
并且,当第一硅通孔用作透光结构时,由于第一硅通孔被进一步刻蚀,可能导致位于第一硅通孔下方的其它结构受到损伤。当向第一硅通孔中填充导电材料时,由于第一硅通孔的实际深度增加,导致填充第一硅通孔的互连结构的实际深度增加,影响信号的传输。例如,出现信号延迟等。Moreover, when the first through silicon hole is used as a light-transmitting structure, other structures located below the first through silicon hole may be damaged because the first through silicon hole is further etched. When the conductive material is filled into the first through silicon hole, since the actual depth of the first through silicon hole increases, the actual depth of the interconnection structure filling the first through silicon hole increases, affecting signal transmission. For example, signal delay occurs, etc.
进一步地,若需要在晶圆中形成两种以上不同深度的硅通孔时,第一硅通孔的实际深度进一步增加,第二硅通孔的实际深度增加,导致硅通孔刻孔的工艺稳定性进一步降低。Furthermore, if it is necessary to form more than two through silicon holes with different depths in the wafer, the actual depth of the first through silicon hole will further increase, and the actual depth of the second through silicon hole will increase, resulting in a through silicon hole engraving process. Stability is further reduced.
在执行第一次刻孔工艺之后第一硅通孔未达到设计深度时,在执行第二次刻孔工艺的过程中,可进一步刻蚀第一硅通孔,以将其刻蚀至设计深度。然而,该方案需要先形成深度深的第一硅通孔,然后再形成深度浅的第二硅通孔,即硅通孔的制作需要按照由深至浅的工序执行,导致硅通孔制作工艺的灵活性较低,并且深度深的第一硅通孔需要执行两次刻孔工艺,导致第一硅通孔侧壁的连续性较差。When the first through silicon hole does not reach the designed depth after performing the first hole etching process, the first through silicon hole can be further etched to the designed depth during the second hole etching process. . However, this solution requires first forming a first through silicon hole with a deep depth, and then forming a second through silicon hole with a shallow depth. That is, the production of the through silicon hole needs to be performed in a process from deep to shallow, resulting in a through silicon hole manufacturing process. The flexibility is low, and the deep first through silicon hole requires two drilling processes, resulting in poor continuity of the sidewalls of the first through silicon hole.
并且,当第一硅通孔用作透光结构时,由于第一硅通孔侧壁的连续性较差,可能导致光线折射的概率增加,影响光线的传输。当向第一硅通孔中填充导电材料时,由于第一硅通孔侧壁的连续性较差,可能影响后续导电材料的填充。Moreover, when the first through-silicon via is used as a light-transmitting structure, the poor continuity of the sidewalls of the first through-silicon via may increase the probability of light refraction, affecting the transmission of light. When the conductive material is filled into the first through silicon hole, due to poor continuity of the sidewalls of the first through silicon hole, subsequent filling of the conductive material may be affected.
有鉴于此,本公开实施例提供一种半导体器件的制作方法。In view of this, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device.
图1是根据本公开实施例示出的一种半导体器件的制作方法的流程图,该制作方法至少包括以下步骤:Figure 1 is a flow chart of a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The manufacturing method at least includes the following steps:
S100:在第一晶圆中形成第一盲孔;S100: Form the first blind hole in the first wafer;
S200:在第一盲孔中形成第一填充结构;S200: Form a first filling structure in the first blind hole;
S300:形成覆盖第一晶圆和第一填充结构的第一掩膜结构;其中,第一掩膜结构包括掩膜开口;S300: Form a first mask structure covering the first wafer and the first filling structure; wherein the first mask structure includes a mask opening;
S400:根据掩膜开口刻蚀第一晶圆,以在第一晶圆中形成第二盲孔;其中,第二盲孔的深度与第一盲孔的深度不同;第二盲孔的位置与第一盲孔的位置不 同;S400: Etch the first wafer according to the mask opening to form a second blind hole in the first wafer; wherein the depth of the second blind hole is different from the depth of the first blind hole; the position of the second blind hole is different from the depth of the first blind hole. The location of the first blind hole is different;
S500:在形成第二盲孔之后,去除第一掩膜结构和第一填充结构。S500: After forming the second blind hole, remove the first mask structure and the first filling structure.
本公开实施例中,通过先在第一盲孔中形成第一填充结构,再形成覆盖第一晶圆和第一填充结构的第一掩膜结构,然后根据第一掩膜结构中的掩膜开口刻蚀第一晶圆,可在第一晶圆中形成与第一盲孔的深度不同的第二盲孔。在形成第二盲孔的过程中,由于第一盲孔中形成有第一填充结构,并且第一掩膜结构覆盖第一填充结构,第一掩膜结构和第一填充结构可较好地保护第一盲孔的侧壁和底部,减小已形成的第一盲孔暴露于刻蚀环境中的概率,有利于保证第一盲孔的侧壁的形貌较好,以及减小第一盲孔被进一步刻蚀的概率,进而使得第一盲孔的实际深度更接近设计深度,有利于提高硅通孔刻孔的工艺稳定性。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by first forming a first filling structure in the first blind hole, and then forming a first mask structure covering the first wafer and the first filling structure, and then according to the mask in the first mask structure By etching the first wafer with the opening, a second blind hole having a different depth from the first blind hole can be formed in the first wafer. In the process of forming the second blind hole, since the first filling structure is formed in the first blind hole and the first mask structure covers the first filling structure, the first mask structure and the first filling structure can be better protected. The sidewalls and bottom of the first blind hole reduce the probability that the formed first blind hole is exposed to the etching environment, which is beneficial to ensuring a better shape of the sidewall of the first blind hole and reducing the risk of the first blind hole being exposed to the etching environment. The probability of the hole being further etched makes the actual depth of the first blind hole closer to the design depth, which is beneficial to improving the process stability of through-silicon via engraving.
并且,由于第一盲孔被进一步刻蚀的概率减小,有利于减小位于第一硅通孔下方的其它结构受到损伤的概率,即可较好地保护位于第一硅通孔下方的其它结构。Moreover, since the probability of the first blind hole being further etched is reduced, it is helpful to reduce the probability that other structures located under the first through silicon hole are damaged, which can better protect other structures located under the first through silicon hole. structure.
此外,由于第二盲孔的刻蚀和第一盲孔的刻蚀各自独立地进行,有利于保证第二盲孔和第一盲孔侧壁的连续性较好。In addition, since the etching of the second blind hole and the etching of the first blind hole are performed independently, it is beneficial to ensure better continuity of the side walls of the second blind hole and the first blind hole.

In another example, referring to Figure 9b, the first bonding glue layer 105' completely fills the first blind hole 104, that is, the first bonding glue layer 105' in Figure 9b is a solid structure.
在一示例中,第一键合胶层105’的顶表面与第一晶圆101的顶表面基本平齐。这里,基本平齐包括第一键合胶层105’的顶表面与第一晶圆101的顶表面完全平齐,或者,第一键合胶层105’的顶表面与第一晶圆101的顶表面之间的距离非常小,可忽略不计。In one example, the top surface of the first bonding glue layer 105′ is substantially flush with the top surface of the first wafer 101.

The distance between the top surfaces is very small and can be ignored.
需要指出的是,向第一盲孔104中涂覆第一键合胶层105’的过程中,由于受实际工艺条件的影响或限制,可能会出现如图9a所示的空隙1051。通过设置第一键合胶层105’的顶表面与第一晶圆101的顶表面基本平齐,即可保证第一晶圆101在加工过程中的平整度,为后续的半导体制程提供相对平坦的表面。It should be pointed out that during the process of coating the first bonding glue layer 105' into the first blind hole 104, due to the influence or limitation of actual process conditions, a gap 1051 as shown in Figure 9a may appear.

For example, thermoplastic resin, etc.
本公开实施例中,通过向第一盲孔中涂覆第一键合胶层,第一键合胶层在 保护第一盲孔的侧壁和底部的同时,还可用于在后续的制程中键合第一晶圆和第二晶圆,键合后的第二晶圆可进一步的保护位于第一盲孔中的第一键合胶层,使得后续第二盲孔的刻蚀独立于第一盲孔进行,有利于减小第一盲孔被进一步刻蚀的概率,提高硅通孔刻孔的工艺稳定性。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by coating the first bonding glue layer into the first blind hole, the first bonding glue layer can protect the side walls and bottom of the first blind hole and can also be used in subsequent processes. The first wafer and the second wafer are bonded, and the bonded second wafer can further protect the first bonding glue layer located in the first blind hole, so that the subsequent etching of the second blind hole is independent of the first blind hole. Performing the process with one blind hole will help reduce the probability of the first blind hole being further etched and improve the stability of the through silicon via etching process.
在一些实施例中,参照图8所示,第一晶圆101包括:第一区域101a和第二区域101b;其中,第一盲孔104位于第一区域101a;上述制作方法还包括:In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 8 , the first wafer 101 includes: a first area 101a and a second area 101b; wherein the first blind hole 104 is located in the first area 101a; the above manufacturing method also includes:

Here, satisfying the preset flat condition includes: the surface of the first bonding glue layer 105 relatively far away from the first wafer 101 is parallel to the horizontal plane, or the surface of the first bonding glue layer 105 relatively far away from the first wafer 101 is parallel to the horizontal plane. The flatness tolerance range includes -20nm to 20nm.

可以理解的是,在本实施例中,第二晶圆106为包括掩膜开口1061的晶圆,掩膜开口1061用于定义后续形成的第二盲孔的位置。第二晶圆106用于在刻蚀形成第二盲孔的过程中保护掩膜开口1061,减小掩膜开口1061发生变形的概率。在其它示例中,第二晶圆106可以是完整的晶圆,将在下文中进行详细说明,此处不再赘述。It can be understood that in this embodiment, the second wafer 106 is a wafer including a mask opening 1061, and the mask opening 1061 is used to define the position of the second blind hole formed subsequently. The second wafer 106 is used to protect the mask opening 1061 during etching to form the second blind hole and reduce the probability of the mask opening 1061 being deformed. In other examples, the second wafer 106 may be a complete wafer, which will be described in detail below and will not be described again here.
在一些实施例中,参照图13所示,第二晶圆106包括:第三区域和第四区域;其中,掩膜开口1061位于第四区域;In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 13 , the second wafer 106 includes: a third area and a fourth area; wherein the mask opening 1061 is located in the fourth area;
在对准并键合第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106之前,上述制作方法还包括:Before aligning and bonding the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106, the above manufacturing method also includes:
形成覆盖第三区域的第二键合胶层;Forming a second bonding glue layer covering the third region;
上述键合第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106,包括:The above-mentioned bonding of the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106 includes:
键合第一键合胶层105和第二键合胶层,以使得第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106键合。The first bonding glue layer 105 and the second bonding glue layer are bonded, so that the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106 are bonded.
示例性地,第四区域可以是第二晶圆106中用于形成掩膜开口1061的区域,第三区域可以是第二晶圆106中除第四区域之外的区域。采用上述涂胶工艺,在第二晶圆106的第三区域涂覆第二键合胶层,倒置第二晶圆106,以使得第三区域涂覆有第二键合胶层的表面朝向第一晶圆101,然后键合第一键合胶层105和第二键合胶层。For example, the fourth region may be a region in the second wafer 106 for forming the mask opening 1061, and the third region may be a region in the second wafer 106 except the fourth region. Using the above glue coating process, a second bonding adhesive layer is coated on the third area of the second wafer 106, and the second wafer 106 is inverted so that the surface of the third area coated with the second bonding adhesive layer faces the third area. A wafer 101 is then bonded with the first bonding adhesive layer 105 and the second bonding adhesive layer.
可以理解的是,在键合第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106之后,第一键合胶层105位于第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106之间,第二键合胶层(图中未示出)位于第一键合胶层105和第二晶圆106之间。It can be understood that after the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106 are bonded, the first bonding glue layer 105 is located between the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106, and the second bonding glue layer ( (not shown in the figure) is located between the first bonding glue layer 105 and the second wafer 106 .
第二键合胶层包括临时键合胶,用于在后续的制程中将第一晶圆和第二晶圆临时键合或者将第一晶圆和第二晶圆解键合。临时键合胶的材质包括激光照射后溶解的聚合物材料,例如,热塑性树脂。本实施例中,第二键合胶层与第一键合胶层相同。在其它实施例中,第二键合胶层与第一键合胶层不同。The second bonding glue layer includes temporary bonding glue, which is used to temporarily bond the first wafer and the second wafer or to debond the first wafer and the second wafer in subsequent processes. Temporary bonding glue is made of polymer materials that dissolve after laser irradiation, such as thermoplastic resins. In this embodiment, the second bonding glue layer is the same as the first bonding glue layer. In other embodiments, the second bonding glue layer is different from the first bonding glue layer.
相较于仅在第一晶圆中涂覆第一键合胶层,本公开实施例中,还通过在第二晶圆的第三区域涂覆第二键合胶层,有利于增大后续键合的第一晶圆与第二晶圆之间的粘附强度,进一步保证第一晶圆与第二晶圆之间通过键合胶方式键合的牢固性,减小因第一晶圆与第二晶圆之间的粘附强度过小而发生偏移或提前解键合的概率,有利于进一步保证后续第二盲孔制作的正常进行。Compared with only coating the first bonding adhesive layer on the first wafer, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second bonding adhesive layer is also coated on the third area of the second wafer, which is beneficial to increase the subsequent The adhesion strength between the bonded first wafer and the second wafer further ensures the firmness of the bonding between the first wafer and the second wafer through the bonding glue and reduces the risk of the first wafer being bonded. The probability of offset or premature debonding due to excessively low adhesion strength to the second wafer is conducive to further ensuring the normal progress of the subsequent production of the second blind hole.
在一些实施例中,结合图10和图13所示,上述步骤S300,包括:In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 13, the above step S300 includes:
键合第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106”;其中,第一填充结构位于第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106”之间;Bonding the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106"; wherein the first filling structure is located between the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106";
形成贯穿第二晶圆106”的掩膜开口1061;其中,掩膜开口1061显露第一晶圆101。A mask opening 1061 is formed through the second wafer 106 ″; wherein the mask opening 1061 exposes the first wafer 101 .
示例性地,形成覆盖第二晶圆106”的第二光刻胶材料层,通过对第二光刻胶材料层执行曝光和显影工艺,形成包括第二光刻图案1071的第二光刻胶层107。这里,第二光刻胶层107的组成材料可与第一光刻胶层103的组成材料相同,不再赘述。Exemplarily, a second photoresist material layer covering the second wafer 106″ is formed, and a second photoresist including a second photoresist pattern 1071 is formed by performing an exposure and development process on the second photoresist material layer. Layer 107. Here, the composition material of the second photoresist layer 107 may be the same as the composition material of the first photoresist layer 103, which will not be described again.
示例性地,通过刻蚀工艺,沿z轴方向向下刻蚀第二晶圆106”,形成包括掩膜开口1061的第二晶圆106。在一示例中,第一键合胶层105仅位于第一盲孔中,掩膜开口1061的底部显露第一晶圆101。在另一示例中,第一键合胶层105还位于第二区域上,掩膜开口1061的底部显露第一键合胶层105,去除掩膜开口1061底部显露的第一键合胶层105,以显露第一晶圆101。Illustratively, through an etching process, the second wafer 106" is etched downward along the z-axis direction to form the second wafer 106 including the mask opening 1061. In an example, the first bonding glue layer 105 only Located in the first blind hole, the bottom of the mask opening 1061 exposes the first wafer 101. In another example, the first bonding glue layer 105 is also located on the second area, and the bottom of the mask opening 1061 exposes the first bond Bond the adhesive layer 105 and remove the first bonding adhesive layer 105 exposed at the bottom of the mask opening 1061 to expose the first wafer 101 .
与图13中第二晶圆106不同的是,在本示例中,第二晶圆106”为完整的晶圆。这里,完整的晶圆表示的是未经光刻、刻蚀和沉积等加工处理的晶圆,或者,未形成有掩膜开口或电路图案的晶圆。Different from the second wafer 106 in Figure 13, in this example, the second wafer 106" is a complete wafer. Here, the complete wafer means that it has not been processed by photolithography, etching, deposition, etc. Processed wafers, or wafers without mask openings or circuit patterns.
在实际的应用中,通常需要对某一批次的第一晶圆进行加工,以在该批次的每个第一晶圆中至少形成第一盲孔和第二盲孔。例如,在第1个第一晶圆中制作第一盲孔时,采用第二晶圆106”对第1个第一晶圆进行加工,形成包括掩膜开口1061的第二晶圆106(如图13所示),在第2个第一晶圆中制作第二盲孔时,可重复利用该第二晶圆106,而无需采用另一个完整的第二晶圆106”,如此,可减少对第二晶圆106”的用量需求,降低了半导体器件的制作成本。In actual applications, it is usually necessary to process the first wafers of a certain batch to form at least a first blind hole and a second blind hole in each first wafer of the batch. For example, when making the first blind hole in the first first wafer, the second wafer 106″ is used to process the first first wafer to form the second wafer 106 including the mask opening 1061 (such as As shown in Figure 13), when making the second blind hole in the second first wafer, the second wafer 106 can be reused without using another complete second wafer 106". In this way, the number of The demand for the second wafer 106″ reduces the manufacturing cost of the semiconductor device.
在一些实施例中,结合图10和图11所示,在键合第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106”之后,且在刻蚀第二晶圆106”之前,上述制作方法还包括:In some embodiments, as shown in conjunction with Figures 10 and 11, after bonding the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106" and before etching the second wafer 106", the above manufacturing method further includes:
减薄第二晶圆106”相对远离第一晶圆101的一侧。Thinning the side of the second wafer 106" relatively away from the first wafer 101.
示例性地,可先对第二晶圆106”相对远离第一晶圆101的一侧执行减薄处理,形成如图11所示的减薄后的第二晶圆106’,再在减薄后的第二晶圆106’上涂布第二光刻胶材料层。这里,减薄处理包括平坦化处理或者刻蚀处理。For example, a thinning process can be performed on the side of the second wafer 106" relatively far away from the first wafer 101 to form the thinned second wafer 106' as shown in Figure 11, and then the thinning process is performed. The second photoresist material layer is coated on the second wafer 106'. Here, the thinning process includes planarization process or etching process.
可以理解的是,第二晶圆106用作制作第二盲孔108的硬掩膜层,通过将第二晶圆106”执行减薄处理,可减小第二晶圆106”的厚度,以使得最终的第二晶圆106的厚度满足用作硬掩膜层的工艺要求。It can be understood that the second wafer 106 is used as a hard mask layer for making the second blind hole 108. By performing a thinning process on the second wafer 106", the thickness of the second wafer 106" can be reduced. The final second wafer 106 has a thickness that meets the process requirements for use as a hard mask layer.
需要强调的是,在实际的应用中,当提供的第二晶圆106”的厚度已满足用作硬掩膜层的工艺需求时,也可不作减薄处理,本公开在此不作限制。It should be emphasized that in actual applications, when the thickness of the provided second wafer 106″ has met the process requirements for use as a hard mask layer, thinning processing may not be performed, and the disclosure is not limited here.
接下来,结合图13和图14所示,执行步骤S400:根据掩膜开口1061刻蚀第一晶圆101,以在第一晶圆101中形成第二盲孔108;其中,第二盲孔108的深度与第一盲孔104的深度不同;第二盲孔108的位置与第一盲孔104的位置不同。Next, as shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 14 , step S400 is performed: etching the first wafer 101 according to the mask opening 1061 to form a second blind hole 108 in the first wafer 101 ; wherein, the second blind hole The depth of 108 is different from the depth of the first blind hole 104; the position of the second blind hole 108 is different from the position of the first blind hole 104.
示例性地,通过刻蚀工艺,沿z轴方向向下刻蚀第一晶圆101,以在第一晶圆101中形成第二盲孔108,第二盲孔108的底部位于第一晶圆101内。刻蚀工艺包括但不限于干法刻蚀、湿法刻蚀或其组合。Exemplarily, through an etching process, the first wafer 101 is etched downward along the z-axis direction to form a second blind hole 108 in the first wafer 101. The bottom of the second blind hole 108 is located on the first wafer. Within 101. The etching process includes, but is not limited to, dry etching, wet etching or combinations thereof.
第二盲孔108可以是位于第一晶圆101内的孔结构,还可以是位于第一晶圆101内的槽结构。第二盲孔108在水平面的投影包括圆形、椭圆形、正方形 或者长方形等。这里,水平面可以是垂直于z轴的平面。The second blind hole 108 may be a hole structure located in the first wafer 101 , or may be a groove structure located in the first wafer 101 . The projection of the second blind hole 108 on the horizontal plane includes a circle, an ellipse, a square or a rectangle, etc. Here, the horizontal plane may be a plane perpendicular to the z-axis.
第二盲孔108的深度与第一盲孔104的深度不同包括:第二盲孔108的深度大于第一盲孔104的深度,或者,第二盲孔108的深度小于第一盲孔104的深度。The difference between the depth of the second blind hole 108 and the depth of the first blind hole 104 includes: the depth of the second blind hole 108 is greater than the depth of the first blind hole 104 , or the depth of the second blind hole 108 is smaller than the depth of the first blind hole 104 . depth.
可以理解的是,由于第一盲孔中形成有第一填充结构,并且第二晶圆覆盖形成有第一填充结构的第一盲孔,在刻蚀形成第二盲孔的过程中,可减小第一盲孔暴露于刻蚀环境中的概率,即减小第一盲孔被进一步刻蚀的概率。因此,本公开实施例提供的制作方法有利于保证已形成的第一盲孔的侧壁形貌较好,并且不会增加已形成的第一盲孔的深度。It can be understood that since the first filling structure is formed in the first blind hole and the second wafer covers the first blind hole formed with the first filling structure, during the process of etching to form the second blind hole, it can be reduced. The probability that the first blind hole is exposed to the etching environment is small, that is, the probability that the first blind hole is further etched is reduced. Therefore, the manufacturing method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is beneficial to ensure that the sidewall morphology of the formed first blind hole is better, and does not increase the depth of the formed first blind hole.
此外,由于第一盲孔的刻蚀和第二盲孔的刻蚀独立进行,硅通孔的制作无需按照由深至浅的工序执行,例如,当第一盲孔的深度h 1和第二盲孔的深度h 2满足:h 1<h 2,可先形成深度浅的第一盲孔,再形成深度深的第二盲孔。又例如,当第一盲孔的深度h 1和第二盲孔的深度h 2满足:h 1>h 2,可先形成深度深的第一盲孔,再形成深度浅的第二盲孔。如此,有利于提高硅通孔制作工艺的灵活性。并且第一盲孔和第二盲孔均是通过一次刻蚀形成,有利于保证第一盲孔侧壁的连续性和第二盲孔侧壁的连续性较好,即第一盲孔的侧壁和第二盲孔的侧壁较为平坦。 In addition, since the etching of the first blind hole and the etching of the second blind hole are performed independently, the fabrication of the through silicon via does not need to be performed in a process from deep to shallow. For example, when the depth of the first blind hole is h 1 and the second blind hole is The depth h 2 of the blind hole satisfies: h 1 <h 2 . The first blind hole with a shallow depth can be formed first, and then the second blind hole with a deep depth can be formed. For another example, when the depth h 1 of the first blind hole and the depth h 2 of the second blind hole satisfy: h 1 > h 2 , the first blind hole with a deep depth can be formed first, and then the second blind hole with a shallow depth can be formed. This will help improve the flexibility of the through silicon via manufacturing process. Moreover, both the first blind hole and the second blind hole are formed through one etching, which is beneficial to ensuring the continuity of the side wall of the first blind hole and the continuity of the side wall of the second blind hole, that is, the side wall of the first blind hole. The wall and the sidewall of the second blind hole are relatively flat.
最后,结合图14至图16所示,执行步骤S500:在形成第二盲孔108之后,去除第一掩膜结构和第一填充结构。Finally, as shown in FIGS. 14 to 16 , step S500 is performed: after forming the second blind hole 108 , remove the first mask structure and the first filling structure.
在一些实施例中,在形成第二盲孔108之后,上述步骤S500,包括:In some embodiments, after forming the second blind hole 108, the above step S500 includes:
对第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106执行解键合处理,以显露第一键合胶层105;Perform a debonding process on the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106 to expose the first bonding glue layer 105;
去除第一键合胶层105。The first bonding glue layer 105 is removed.
示例性地,在形成第二盲孔108之后,通过激光照射第一键合胶层105或者加热第一键合胶层105,以使得第一键合胶层105溶解,从而使得第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106分离,即第一晶圆101和第二晶圆106解键合。在第一晶 圆101和第二晶圆106解键合后,去除第一键合胶层105,从而形成如图16所示的结构。Exemplarily, after the second blind hole 108 is formed, the first bonding glue layer 105 is irradiated with a laser or the first bonding glue layer 105 is heated, so that the first bonding glue layer 105 is dissolved, thereby making the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106 are separated, that is, the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106 are debonded. After the first wafer 101 and the second wafer 106 are debonded, the first bonding glue layer 105 is removed, thereby forming a structure as shown in Figure 16.
在一示例中,参照图16所示,第二盲孔108的深度h 2大于第一盲孔104的深度h 1。在其它示例中,第二盲孔108的深度h 2可小于第一盲孔104的深度h 1,本公开在此不作限制。 In an example, referring to FIG. 16 , the depth h 2 of the second blind hole 108 is greater than the depth h 1 of the first blind hole 104 . In other examples, the depth h 2 of the second blind hole 108 may be smaller than the depth h 1 of the first blind hole 104 , which is not limited by the present disclosure.
本公开实施例中,由于第一晶圆和第二晶圆之间采用物理方式(即临时键合胶)键合,在独立形成第一盲孔和第二盲孔之后,通过解键合的方式即可分离第一晶圆和第二晶圆,而不会对第一晶圆和第二晶圆造成损害,一方面保证了第一晶圆的完整性,另一方面,解键合的第二晶圆可在同一批次中其它的第一晶圆的加工过程中重复使用,提高了第二晶圆的利用率,降低了半导体器件的制作成本。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the first wafer and the second wafer are bonded physically (i.e., temporary bonding glue), after the first blind hole and the second blind hole are independently formed, the debonding method is used. The first wafer and the second wafer can be separated without causing damage to the first wafer and the second wafer. On the one hand, the integrity of the first wafer is ensured, and on the other hand, the debonded second wafer It can be reused during the processing of other first wafers in the same batch, which improves the utilization rate of the second wafer and reduces the manufacturing cost of semiconductor devices.
在一些实施例中,结合图8和图17所示,上述步骤S200,包括:In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 17, the above step S200 includes:
向第一盲孔104中沉积填充材料;其中,填充材料覆盖第二区域101b;Depositing filling material into the first blind hole 104; wherein the filling material covers the second area 101b;
去除位于第一晶圆101之上的填充材料,以形成第一填充结构205;其中,第一填充结构205的顶表面与第一晶圆101的顶表面基本平齐。The filling material located on the first wafer 101 is removed to form the first filling structure 205 ; wherein the top surface of the first filling structure 205 is substantially flush with the top surface of the first wafer 101 .
示例性地,可通过薄膜沉积工艺向第一盲孔104中沉积填充材料。在向第一盲孔104中沉积填充材料的过程中,部分填充材料覆盖在第二区域101b上,通过执行平坦化处理去除位于第一晶圆101之上的填充材料,从而形成如图17所示的第一填充结构205。For example, the filling material may be deposited into the first blind hole 104 through a thin film deposition process. During the process of depositing the filling material into the first blind hole 104, part of the filling material covers the second area 101b, and the filling material located on the first wafer 101 is removed by performing a planarization process, thereby forming a structure as shown in Figure 17 The first filling structure 205 is shown.
在一示例中,第一填充结构205包括空隙,即第一填充结构205为空心结构。在另一示例中,第一填充结构205完全填充第一盲孔104,即第一填充结构205为实心结构。In an example, the first filling structure 205 includes gaps, that is, the first filling structure 205 is a hollow structure. In another example, the first filling structure 205 completely fills the first blind hole 104 , that is, the first filling structure 205 is a solid structure.
在一示例中,第一填充结构205的顶表面与第一晶圆101的顶表面基本平齐。这里,基本平齐包括第一填充结构205的顶表面与第一晶圆101的顶表面完全平齐,或者,第一填充结构205的顶表面与第一晶圆101的顶表面之间的距离非常小,可忽略不计。In one example, the top surface of the first filling structure 205 is substantially flush with the top surface of the first wafer 101 . Here, substantially flush includes that the top surface of the first filling structure 205 is completely flush with the top surface of the first wafer 101 , or the distance between the top surface of the first filling structure 205 and the top surface of the first wafer 101 Very small and can be ignored.
需要指出的是,向第一盲孔104中沉积填充材料的过程中,由于受实际工艺条件的影响或限制,第一填充结构205中可能会出现空隙。通过设置第一填充结构205的顶表面与第一晶圆101的顶表面基本平齐,即可保证第一晶圆101在加工过程中的平整度,为后续的半导体制程提供相对平坦的表面。It should be noted that during the process of depositing the filling material into the first blind hole 104, voids may appear in the first filling structure 205 due to the influence or limitation of actual process conditions. By setting the top surface of the first filling structure 205 to be substantially flush with the top surface of the first wafer 101, the flatness of the first wafer 101 during processing can be ensured and a relatively flat surface can be provided for subsequent semiconductor processes.
第一填充结构205可以是绝缘材料,例如,氧化硅,氮化硅或者氮氧化硅等,第一填充结构205还可以是金属材料,例如,钨、铜、铝或者钛等。本示例中,第一填充结构205为金属。The first filling structure 205 may be an insulating material, such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, or silicon oxynitride. The first filling structure 205 may also be a metal material, such as tungsten, copper, aluminum, or titanium. In this example, the first filling structure 205 is metal.
本公开实施例中,通过在第一盲孔中沉积填充材料,可在第一盲孔中形成第一填充结构,由于第一填充结构的顶表面与第一晶圆的顶表面基本平齐,有利于为后续的半导体制程提供相对平坦的表面,保证后续制作工艺的正常进行。In embodiments of the present disclosure, by depositing the filling material in the first blind hole, the first filling structure can be formed in the first blind hole. Since the top surface of the first filling structure is substantially flush with the top surface of the first wafer, It is beneficial to provide a relatively flat surface for subsequent semiconductor manufacturing processes and ensure the normal progress of subsequent manufacturing processes.
在一些实施例中,结合图17至图20所示,上述步骤S300,包括:In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 17 to 20 , the above step S300 includes:

When the light-transmitting material is filled into the second blind hole 108, a light-transmitting structure may be formed in the second blind hole 108, and the light-transmitting structure allows light to pass through.
在一些实施例中,结合图16所示,在去除第一掩膜结构和第一填充结构之后,上述制作方法还包括:In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 16 , after removing the first mask structure and the first filling structure, the above manufacturing method further includes:

在一示例中,第一导电材料和第二导电材料相同。第一盲孔104和第二盲孔108可同时填充,或者,第一盲孔104和第二盲孔108可先后填充,本公开在此不作限制。在第一盲孔104和第二盲孔108同时填充时,可节约制作工序,同时缩短半导体器件的制作周期。In one example, the first conductive material and the second conductive material are the same. The first blind hole 104 and the second blind hole 108 may be filled at the same time, or the first blind hole 104 and the second blind hole 108 may be filled successively, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

在另一示例中,第一导电材料和第二导电材料不同。可先填充第二导电材 料,再填充第一导电材料。例如,在形成第二盲孔之后,且在去除第一填充结构之前,在第二盲孔中形成第二导电结构。在形成第二导电结构之后,去除第一填充结构,并在第一盲孔中形成第一导电结构。In another example, the first conductive material and the second conductive material are different. The second conductive material can be filled first and then the first conductive material. For example, after forming the second blind hole and before removing the first filling structure, a second conductive structure is formed in the second blind hole. After the second conductive structure is formed, the first filling structure is removed, and the first conductive structure is formed in the first blind hole.
第一导电结构和第二导电结构的组成材料包括导电材料,例如,铜,钛,铝,铂,钨,钽,氮化钛,氮化钨,氮化钽中的任意一种或其组合。The constituent materials of the first conductive structure and the second conductive structure include conductive materials, for example, any one of copper, titanium, aluminum, platinum, tungsten, tantalum, titanium nitride, tungsten nitride, tantalum nitride or a combination thereof.

可以理解的是,通过采用本公开的制作方法,可在晶圆上形成至少两种以上不同深度的硅通孔,同时保证不同深度的硅通孔的工艺稳定性较好。It can be understood that by using the manufacturing method of the present disclosure, at least two or more through silicon holes with different depths can be formed on the wafer, while ensuring good process stability of the through silicon holes with different depths.
在一些实施例中,第三盲孔用作透光结构。当第三盲孔用作透光结构时,无需向该透光结构中填充材料。In some embodiments, the third blind hole is used as a light-transmitting structure. When the third blind hole is used as a light-transmitting structure, there is no need to fill the light-transmitting structure with material.
在一些实施例中,在形成第三盲孔之后,上述制作方法还包括:在第三盲孔中形成透光结构。例如,可通过包括薄膜沉积工艺,向第三盲孔中填充透光材料,以在第三盲孔中形成透光结构,该透光结构允许光线通过。In some embodiments, after forming the third blind hole, the above manufacturing method further includes: forming a light-transmitting structure in the third blind hole. For example, a light-transmitting material may be filled into the third blind hole through a thin film deposition process to form a light-transmitting structure in the third blind hole, and the light-transmitting structure allows light to pass through.
在一些实施例中,在形成第三盲孔之后,上述制作方法还包括:在第三盲孔中形成第三导电结构。In some embodiments, after forming the third blind hole, the above manufacturing method further includes: forming a third conductive structure in the third blind hole.
示例性地,可通过包括薄膜沉积工艺,向第三盲孔中填充第三导电材料,以在第三盲孔中形成第三导电结构。For example, a third conductive material may be filled into the third blind hole to form a third conductive structure in the third blind hole by including a thin film deposition process.

此外,由于第一盲孔的刻蚀、第二盲孔的刻蚀和第三盲孔的刻蚀各自独立进行,硅通孔的制作无需按照由深至浅的工序执行,例如,当第一盲孔的深度h 1、第二盲孔的深度h 2和第三盲孔的深度h 3满足:h 1<h 2<h 3,可先形成深度 最浅的第一盲孔,再形成深度次浅的第二盲孔,最后形成深度最深的第三盲孔。又例如,当第一盲孔的深度h 1、第二盲孔的深度h 2和第三盲孔的深度h 3满足:h 1>h 2>h 3,可先形成深度最深的第一盲孔,再形成深度次浅的第二盲孔,最后形成深度最浅的第三盲孔。如此,有利于提高硅通孔制作工艺的灵活性。并且第一盲孔、第二盲孔和第三盲孔均是通过一次刻蚀形成,有利于保证第一盲孔侧壁的连续性、第二盲孔侧壁的连续性和第三盲孔侧壁的连续性较好,即第一盲孔的侧壁、第二盲孔的侧壁和第三盲孔的侧壁较为平坦。当需要在第三盲孔中形成透光结构或第三导电结构时,有利于透光材料或导电材料的填充。 In addition, since the etching of the first blind hole, the etching of the second blind hole and the etching of the third blind hole are performed independently, the fabrication of the through silicon via does not need to be performed in a process from deep to shallow. For example, when the first blind hole is etched, the through silicon hole is etched. The depth of the blind hole h 1 , the depth of the second blind hole h 2 and the depth of the third blind hole h 3 satisfy: h 1 < h 2 < h 3 , the first blind hole with the shallowest depth can be formed first, and then the depth The second shallowest blind hole finally forms the third blind hole with the deepest depth. For another example, when the depth h 1 of the first blind hole, the depth h 2 of the second blind hole and the depth h 3 of the third blind hole satisfy: h 1 > h 2 > h 3 , the first blind hole with the deepest depth can be formed first. hole, then a second blind hole with the next shallowest depth is formed, and finally a third blind hole with the shallowest depth is formed. This will help improve the flexibility of the through silicon via manufacturing process. Moreover, the first blind hole, the second blind hole and the third blind hole are all formed through one etching, which is beneficial to ensuring the continuity of the side wall of the first blind hole, the continuity of the side wall of the second blind hole and the third blind hole. The continuity of the side walls is good, that is, the side walls of the first blind hole, the side walls of the second blind hole, and the side walls of the third blind hole are relatively flat. When it is necessary to form a light-transmitting structure or a third conductive structure in the third blind hole, it is beneficial to fill the light-transmitting material or the conductive material.
