Abstract

The invention discloses a method for inhibiting copper electromigration in hybrid bonding of wafers. The method comprises the following steps of forming metal layers on at least two semiconductor substrates; carrying out chemico-mechanical polishing on the semiconductor substrates to form a plurality of recesses in the metal layers; plating the metal layers with the plurality of recesses with graphene; and carrying out thermal treatment on the at least two semiconductor substrates to bond the metal layers through the graphene. The recesses of specific heights are firstly formed through control, single-layer graphene is accurately transferred into each recess to form a cover coating, wafer bonding is carried out through a hybrid bonding method of the wafers, and thermal treatment is finallycarried out at certain temperature, so that copper electromigration can be inhibited.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a wafer hybrid bonding method, in particular to a method for suppressing copper electromigration in wafer hybrid bonding. Background technique [0002] New improvements for wafer bonding are increasingly important in 3D IC construction. In wafer bonding, two semiconductor wafers are bonded together to form a three-dimensional stack without the need for intervening substrates or devices. In applications requiring two different wafer types, this approach can provide a single device with two functional devices in one package. In one specific application, a CMOS image sensor, a substrate including an image sensor array, can be bonded onto a circuit wafer to provide a 3D IC that includes all the circuitry needed to implement the image sensor in the same circuit board area as the sensor array system that provides a complete image sensing solution in a single packaged integrated circuit device. [0003] Previously known wafer bondi...
