In some embodiments, semiconductor die 21 and semiconductor die 22 are disposed on the interposer structure 100 (interconnection structure), or on the core substrate 102 within the device region DV. For example, the semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22 are placed on the first surface 102a of the interposer structure 100. The semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22 are individual dies singulated from a wafer. In some embodiments, the semiconductor die 21 contains the same circuitry, such as devices and metallization patterns, or the semiconductor die 21 is the same type of die. In some embodiments, the semiconductor die 22 contains the same circuitry, or the semiconductor die 22 is the same type of die.

In some embodiments, semiconductor die 21 may be a logic die, including a central processing unit (CPU) die, a graphics processing unit (GPU) die, a system-on-a-chip (SoC) die, a microcontroller, or the like. In some embodiments, semiconductor die 21 is a power management die such as a power management integrated circuit (PMIC) die. In some embodiments, semiconductor die 22 may be a memory die, including a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) die, a static random access memory (SRAM) die, or a high bandwidth memory (HBM) die. The present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the number, size, and type of semiconductor dies disposed on core substrate 102 may be appropriately adjusted based on product requirements.
[0063] In the illustrated embodiment, semiconductor die 21 includes a body 210 and connection pads 212 formed on an active surface 211 of body 210. In certain embodiments, connection pads 212 may further include pillar structures for bonding semiconductor die 21 to other structures.

In other embodiments, connection pads 222 may further include pillar structures for bonding die 22 to other structures.
[0064] In some embodiments, the semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22 are attached to the first surface 102a of the core substrate 102, for example, by flip chip bonding with the aid of conductive bumps 110. Through the reflow process, the conductive bumps 110 are formed between the connection pads 212, the connection pads 222 and the conductive pads 106, so that the semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22 are electrically connected and physically connected to the core substrate 102 of the interposer structure 100. In some embodiments, the conductive bumps 110 are positioned between the semiconductor die 21, the semiconductor die 22 and the interposer structure 100 (or the interconnect structure). In certain embodiments, the semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22 are electrically connected to the through-holes 104 and the conductive pads 106 through the conductive bumps 110. In one embodiment, the conductive bumps 110 are micro-bumps, for example, micro-bumps having copper metal pillars. In another embodiment, the conductive bump 110 is a solder bump, a lead-free solder bump, or a microbump, such as a controlled collapse chip connection (C4) bump or a microbump containing a copper pillar. In some embodiments, the bond between the semiconductor die 21, the semiconductor die 22 and the core substrate 102 may be a solder bond. In some embodiments, the bond between the semiconductor die 21, the semiconductor die 22 and the core substrate 102 may be a direct metal-to-metal bond, such as a copper-to-copper bond.

In some embodiments, the bottom filler structure 112 further covers the sidewalls of the semiconductor die 21, the semiconductor die 22 and is positioned in the device region DV. After the semiconductor die 21, the semiconductor die 22 are arranged and the bottom filler structure 112 is formed to protect the conductive bumps 110, the first trench TR1 is formed on the first surface 102a of the interposer structure 100 (internal wiring structure) in the segmentation region DR. In an exemplary embodiment, the first trench TR1 surrounds the semiconductor die 21, the semiconductor die 22. For example, from a top view (not shown) of the interposer structure 100, the semiconductor die 21, the semiconductor die 22 may be confined in the space surrounded by the first trench TR1. In some embodiments, the first trench TR1 may be formed by a laser cutting process, a mechanical sawing process, or other suitable processes. The present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0066] refer to Figure 1C After forming the first trench TR1, an insulating sealant 114 is formed over the device region DV and the segmentation region DR on the first surface 102a of the interposer structure 100 (internal wiring structure). For example, the insulating sealant 114 is formed over the interposer structure 100 to seal the semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22, and fills into the first trench TR1. The insulating sealant 114 may further cover the bottom filler structure 112. In some embodiments, the insulating sealant 114 may have a first portion 114-1 surrounding the semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22, and a second protruding portion 114-2 surrounding the first portion 114-1 and partially surrounding the interposer structure 100. In some embodiments, the first portion 114-1 is positioned in the device region DV, and the second portion 114-2 is positioned in the segmentation region DR and fills into the first trench TR1.
[0067] In addition, in some embodiments, the insulating seal 114 is formed by, for example, a compression molding process or a transfer molding process. In one embodiment, a curing process is performed to cure the insulating seal 114. In some embodiments, the semiconductor die 21, the semiconductor die 22, and the conductive bump 110 are sealed by the insulating seal 114. In some embodiments, a planarization process including grinding or polishing may be performed to partially remove the insulating seal 114, thereby exposing the back side surfaces 21S and 22S of the semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22. Therefore, the back side surfaces 21S and 22S of the semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22 are flush with the surface 114a of the insulating seal 114. The surface 114a is opposite to the surface 114b of the insulating seal 114, wherein the surface 114b is in contact with the core substrate 102.
[0068] In some embodiments, the material of the insulating seal 114 includes a polymer (e.g., epoxy resin, phenolic resin, silicone resin or other suitable resin), a dielectric material with low dielectric constant (Dk) and low loss tangent (Df) properties, or other suitable materials. In alternative embodiments, the insulating seal 114 may include an acceptable insulating sealing material. In some embodiments, the insulating seal 114 may further include an inorganic filler or an inorganic compound (e.g., silicon dioxide, clay, etc.) that can be added thereto to optimize the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of the insulating seal 114. The present disclosure is not limited thereto.

Figure 1C As shown in FIG. 1 , at this process stage, the interposer structure 100 (interconnect structure) has not been thinned and has a thickness T1 . In other words, the through-holes 104 are not exposed and are embedded in the core substrate 102 of the interposer structure 100 .
[0070] refer to Figure 1E , a thinning process is performed on the interposer structure 100 to partially remove or thin the core substrate 102 of the interposer structure 100 until the through hole 104 is exposed and the second surface 102b of the core substrate 102 is formed. In some embodiments, the thinning process may include a back grinding process, a polishing process, or an etching process. In some embodiments, after the thinning process, the interposer structure 100 is thinned to a thickness T2. In some embodiments, the ratio of the thickness T2 to the thickness T1 is in the range of about 0.1 to about 0.5.
[0071] refer to Figure 1F In the next step, a first segmentation process is performed by removing a portion of the interposer structure 100 (interconnect structure) and a portion of the insulating sealant 114 to form a second trench TR2 on the second surface 102b of the interposer structure 100 in the segmentation region DR. In some embodiments, the second protruding portion 114-2 of the insulating sealant 114 and the corner of the core substrate 102 are partially removed to form the second trench TR2. Figure 1F, the second trench TR2 is a bevel groove having a V-shaped profile (when viewed from a cross section). In some embodiments, the corner of the core substrate 102 is removed so that the core substrate 102 includes a bevel portion BVP. In addition, the second protruding portion 114-2 of the insulating seal 114 is removed so that the insulating seal 114 has a bevel top surface 114-2S. For example, the bevel top surface 114-2S is aligned with the surface of the bevel portion BVP. In some embodiments, the first portion 114-1 of the insulating seal 114 has a planar top surface 114-1S in contact with the first surface 102a (or backside surface) of the interposer structure 100.
[0072] refer to Figure 1G After forming the second trench TR2, a protective layer 116 is formed above the device region DV and the segmentation region DR on the second surface 102b (or top surface) of the interposer structure 100. In an exemplary embodiment, the protective layer 116 includes a polymer layer or a dielectric material layer 116A. For example, the polymer layer or the dielectric material layer 116A fills the second trench TR2 and is in physical contact with the insulating seal 114. In some embodiments, the polymer layer or the dielectric material layer 116A covers the bevel portion BVP of the core substrate 102 and covers the second protruding portion 114-2 (bevel top surface 114-2S) of the insulating seal 114. The polymer layer or the dielectric material layer 116A may be a polyimide layer, a polybenzoxazole (PBO) layer, a benzocyclobutene (BCB) layer, or other suitable polymer or dielectric layer. In some embodiments, the polymer layer or the dielectric material layer 116A and the core substrate 102 are made of different materials. In some embodiments, the polymer layer or dielectric material layer 116A may be formed by spin coating or deposition, including chemical vapor deposition (CVD), plasma-enhanced CVD (PECVD), high-density plasma CVD (HDP-CVD), or the like.
[0073] refer to Figure 1HIn the next step, the polymer layer or dielectric material layer 116A may be patterned using photolithography and one or more etching processes to form openings that expose the through-holes 104. Subsequently, a plurality of conductive patterns 116B may be filled in the openings and electrically connected to the through-holes 104. Any excess conductive material on the dielectric material layer 116A may be removed, for example, by using a chemical mechanical polishing process. In an exemplary embodiment, the dielectric material layer 116A and the conductive pattern 116B together constitute the protective layer 116. In some embodiments, the conductive pattern 116B is embedded in the dielectric material layer 116A. In some embodiments, the conductive pattern 116B includes copper, aluminum, tungsten, silver, or a combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the electrical connector 118 is placed on the top surface of the protective layer 116 and is electrically connected to the through-hole 104 through the conductive pattern 116B in the device region DV. In certain embodiments, the electrical connector 118 is located on the conductive pattern 116B and is physically attached to the conductive pattern 116B. In some embodiments, the electrical connector 118 includes a lead-free solder ball, a solder ball, a ball grid array package (BGA) ball, a bump, a C4 bump, or a microbump. In some embodiments, the electrical connector 118 may include a conductive material such as solder, copper, aluminum, gold, nickel, silver, palladium, tin, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the electrical connector 118 is formed by forming a solder paste on the protective layer 116 by, for example, evaporation, electroplating, printing, or solder transfer and then reflowing into a desired bump shape. In some embodiments, the electrical connector 118 is placed on the protective layer 116 by ball planting or the like. In other embodiments, the electrical connector 118 is formed by forming a solder-free metal pillar (e.g., a copper pillar) by sputtering, printing, electroless plating or electroplating or CVD and then forming a lead-free cap layer by electroplating on the metal pillar. The electrical connector 118 can be used to bond to external devices or additional electrical components. In some embodiments, the electrical connector 118 is used to bond to a circuit substrate, a semiconductor substrate, or a packaging substrate.
[0075] like Fig. 1I As shown in FIG, in a subsequent step, the carrier CR is peeled off. For example, the peeling process includes projecting light (such as laser or UV light) on a peeling layer (such as a light-to-heat conversion release layer) (not shown) attached to the carrier CR so that the carrier CR can be easily removed together with the peeling layer. Figure 1J As shown in FIG. , after the carrier CR is peeled off, Fig. 1IThe structure shown in FIG. 1 is attached to a tape TP (e.g., a dicing tape) supported by a frame FR. Subsequently, a second dicing process is performed to cut through the protective layer 116 and the insulating seal 114 in the dicing region DR. In some embodiments, the dicing process or singulation process generally involves dicing with a rotating blade or a laser beam. In other words, the dicing or singulation process is, for example, a laser cutting process, a mechanical sawing process, or other suitable process. After the second dicing process, the Figure 1K The individualized semiconductor component SM1 shown in FIG.

In some embodiments, the contact pad 310 and the contact pad 320 may include a metal pad or a metal alloy pad. In some embodiments, the material of the metallization layer 330 and the vias may be substantially the same or similar to the material of the contact pads 310 and 320 .

In some embodiments, the circuit substrate 300 is, for example, an organic flexible substrate or a printed circuit board. In such embodiments, the electrical connector 118 is, for example, a chip connector. In some embodiments, a plurality of conductive balls 340 are respectively formed on the substrate 300. For example, as Figure 4A As shown in , the conductive balls 340 are connected to the contact pads 320 of the circuit substrate 300. In other words, the conductive balls 340 are electrically connected to the circuit substrate 300 through the contact pads 320. Some of the conductive balls 340 are electrically connected to the semiconductor device SM1 (e.g., the semiconductor die 21 and the semiconductor die 22 included in the semiconductor device SM1) through the contact pads 310 and the contact pads 320. In some embodiments, the conductive balls 340 are, for example, solder balls or BGA balls. In some embodiments, the semiconductor device SM1 is bonded to the circuit substrate 300 by physically connecting the electrical connectors 118 and the contact pads 310 of the circuit substrate 300 via a chip on wafer on substrate (CoWoS) packaging process.

In some embodiments, the bottom filler structure 410 further covers and physically contacts the sidewalls of the insulating seal 114. In addition, the bottom filler structure 410 is physically separated from the interposer structure 100. In other words, the interposer structure 100 (or the interconnect structure) is isolated from the semiconductor device SM1 by the protective layer 116 and the insulating seal 114, and is not exposed at the outer surface of the semiconductor device SM1.

On the other hand, in some embodiments, when the interposer structure 100 is protected by at least a protective layer 116 (e.g., a polyimide having a CTE of 20 ppm / °C to 100 ppm / °C), since the bottom filler structure 410 is in contact with the protective layer 116 having a similar CTE, delamination problems and cracks on the bottom filler structure 410 caused by CTE mismatch can be solved.

In some embodiments, the bottom filler structure 410 further covers and physically contacts the sidewalls of the insulating seal 114. In a similar manner, the bottom filler structure 410 is physically separated from the interposer structure 100. In other words, the interposer structure 100 (or the interconnect structure) is isolated from the semiconductor device SM2 by the protective layer 117 and the insulating seal 114, and is not exposed at the outer surface of the semiconductor device SM2.
