Abstract

The invention discloses a method for reducing defects on an aluminum gasket surface. According to the method for reducing the defects on the aluminum gasket surface, an aluminum gasket is divided into two layers and the two layers are respectively deposited. According to first layer aluminum deposition, a thin aluminum layer grows at a low temperature through the method of magnifying target direct current power. Second layer aluminum deposition grows at a high temperature. Due to low reaction temperature, a first aluminum layer is small in grains and smooth in surface, a surface medium layer is effectively controlled, the surface medium layer is easily etched and removed during a follow-up forming process of a metal wire graph, meanwhile, the direct current power is magnified when the aluminum layer grows at the lower temperature, sputtered aluminum ions have large motion energy, and therefore good passivation layer step covering capacity is achieved. When the second aluminum layer grows at high-temperature environment, due to cooling buffering time, temperature of wafer surfaces drops, and due to the fact that the first aluminum layer at the lower layer of the second aluminum layer is smooth in surface, stress can be released easily, and beard-shaped defects are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a process method for producing an aluminum pad, in particular to a method for reducing surface defects of the aluminum pad. Background technique [0002] In the semiconductor manufacturing process, in the passivation layer process in the later stage, a layer of aluminum pad is required to be formed on the upper end of the metal interconnection layer, as a lead terminal for testing electrical connection and packaging. [0003] At present, the industry manufactures aluminum pads, and the generally used process methods are as follows: figure 1 As shown, wherein: 201 is a semiconductor substrate, the surface of the substrate is a metal interconnection layer, 202 is a passivation layer, and the passivation layer is generally composed of silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, etc. The barrier layer 203 is an aluminum layer, and the deposited aluminum is connected to the metal layer that is etched away in the passivation...
