Abstract
Description

[0002] Through Silicon Via (TSV) can be used to connect wafers in 3D integrated packaging.

[0003] In some semiconductor structure formation methods, since the thickness of the stacked wafer is relatively thick (usually tens of microns), the height of the TSV is also relatively high, which results in a thicker film thickness between the metal wiring layer and the RDLs in the stacked wafer, and thus the through hole connecting the metal wiring layer and the RDLs has a higher aspect ratio (usually greater than 6, while only about 1-2 is required in conventional logic processes), which is difficult for current photolithography processes.

[0028] refer to Figure 1 As shown, a substrate 100 is provided, which includes a stacked first wafer 110 and a second wafer 120 and a through silicon via 140 that penetrates the second wafer 120 and electrically connects the first redistribution layer 115 in the first wafer 110, and a second metal wiring layer 123 is formed in the second wafer 120.
[0029] Continue to refer Figure 1 As shown, the first wafer 110 includes a first substrate 111 and a first interlayer dielectric layer 112. The material of the first substrate 111 includes (i) elemental semiconductors, such as silicon or germanium, etc.; (ii) compound semiconductors, such as silicon carbide, gallium arsenide, gallium phosphide or indium phosphide, etc.; (iii) alloy semiconductors, such as silicon germanium carbide, silicon germanium, gallium arsenide phosphide or indium gallium phosphide, etc.; or (iv) a combination of the above. The material of the first interlayer dielectric layer 112 includes silicon oxide or silicon nitride, etc.
[0030] In some embodiments of the present application, the first wafer 110 further includes a first metal wiring layer 113, which is located in the first interlayer dielectric layer 112 and is used to electrically connect active devices (not shown in the figure) in the first substrate 111.

[0031] The second wafer 120 includes a second substrate 121 and a second interlayer dielectric layer 122. The material of the second substrate 121 includes (i) elemental semiconductors, such as silicon or germanium; (ii) compound semiconductors, such as silicon carbide, gallium arsenide, gallium phosphide or indium phosphide; (iii) alloy semiconductors, such as silicon germanium carbide, silicon germanium, gallium arsenide phosphide or indium gallium phosphide; or (iv) a combination of the above.

The material of the second metal wiring layer 123 includes copper or aluminum.
[0032] In some embodiments of the present application, the material of the through silicon via 140 includes copper or tungsten.
[0033] In some embodiments of the present application, the semiconductor structure further includes an intermediate dielectric layer 130 located between the first wafer 110 and the second wafer 120 for bonding the first wafer 110 and the second wafer 120. The through silicon via 140 also penetrates the intermediate dielectric layer 130.
[0034] In the 3D packaging process of the semiconductor structure, the stacked first wafer 110 and the second wafer 120 need to be electrically connected, so the second metal wiring layer 123 also needs to be electrically connected to the through silicon via 140. It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application only takes two wafers as an example, and the process of the present application can also be applied to the stacking process of more than two wafers.
[0035] refer to Figure 2 As shown, a barrier layer 150 and a dielectric layer 160 are sequentially formed on the surface of the through silicon via 140 and the surface of the second wafer 120. The barrier layer 150 is mainly used to block the diffusion of metal ions in the through silicon via 140, for example, diffusing into the dielectric layer 160 to affect device performance. The dielectric layer 160 is used to form a second rewiring layer.
[0036] In some embodiments of the present application, the material of the barrier layer 150 includes silicon nitride. The thickness of the barrier layer 150 is, for example, 1 micron to 8 microns, such as 2 microns, 4 microns, 5 microns or 6 microns. The method of forming the barrier layer 150 includes a chemical vapor deposition process or a physical vapor deposition process.
[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, the material of the dielectric layer 160 includes silicon oxide. The method of forming the dielectric layer 160 includes a chemical vapor deposition process or a physical vapor deposition process.
[0038] refer to Figure 3As shown, at least one auxiliary layer 170 is formed on the surface of the dielectric layer 160. The auxiliary layer 170 is used to improve the effect of subsequent photolithography to form the second through hole. Specifically, on the one hand, it can improve the clarity of the photolithography pattern, and on the other hand, it can serve as an etching stop layer for photolithography.
[0039] In some embodiments of the present application, the method for forming the at least one auxiliary layer 170 includes a chemical vapor deposition process. The process for forming the auxiliary layer 170 can be compatible with conventional processes and will not cause additional burden.
[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, the auxiliary layer 170 includes a stacked amorphous carbon layer 171 and a capping layer 172. The auxiliary layer 170 is used to assist the photolithography process, so it is necessary to select a suitable material to improve the pattern clarity and precision of the photoresist after exposure and development, such as amorphous carbon. The amorphous carbon layer can also be replaced with other suitable materials, such as anti-reflective materials. The capping layer 172 can also be used as an etching stop layer for photolithography, and its material is, for example, oxide.
[0041] In some embodiments of the present application, the thickness of the amorphous carbon layer is 1000 angstroms to 9000 angstroms, such as 2000 angstroms, 4000 angstroms, 6000 angstroms or 8000 angstroms, etc., and the thickness of the capping layer is 1000 angstroms to 9000 angstroms, such as 2000 angstroms, 4000 angstroms, 6000 angstroms or 8000 angstroms, etc. The thickness of the amorphous carbon layer 171 and the capping layer 172 can be set according to process conditions and photolithography requirements.
[0042] In some embodiments of the present application, the at least one auxiliary layer 170 has one to three layers. In actual processes, when the required auxiliary layer thickness is thicker, it may not be possible to form an auxiliary layer of sufficient thickness at one time due to process limitations, so multiple auxiliary layers may be formed to achieve the required thickness.
[0043] refer to Figures 4 to 6 As shown, a first trench 180 penetrating the auxiliary layer 170 is formed, and the first trench 180 is located above the second metal wiring layer 123 .
[0044] refer to Figure 4 As shown, a photoresist layer 1810 is formed on the surface of the at least one auxiliary layer 170. In order to control the cost, the material of the photoresist layer 181 can be selected from common materials in the process. When the photoresist layer is used alone, the current photolithography accuracy may not meet the requirements for etching a high aspect ratio groove, so it needs to be used together with the auxiliary layer 170.
[0045] refer to Figure 5As shown, the photoresist layer 181 is exposed and developed to form a patterned photoresist layer 181, and the patterned photoresist layer 181 defines the position of the first groove 180. Due to the role of the auxiliary layer 170, specifically the role of the amorphous carbon layer 171, the clarity and precision of the patterned photoresist layer 181 are better than when the auxiliary layer 170 is not used, thereby improving the photolithography effect.
[0046] refer to Figure 6 As shown, the at least one auxiliary layer 170 is etched using the patterned photoresist layer 181 as a mask to form the first groove 180. The etching includes wet etching or dry etching.
[0047] refer to Figure 7 As shown, etching is performed along the first groove 180 until the second metal wiring layer 123 is exposed. Since the etching thickness is relatively thick, the entire photoresist layer 181 and even part of the auxiliary layer 170 can be consumed. Of course, the photoresist layer 181 can also be removed separately before etching.
[0048] In some embodiments of the present application, the first groove 180 can also be formed by one etching, that is, Figure 6 and Figure 7 The step can be one step.
[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, the aspect ratio of the first trench 180 is greater than or equal to 6. The aspect ratio refers to the ratio of the trench diameter to the trench depth. The number of the first trench 180 can be multiple.
[0050] refer to Figure 8 As shown, the at least one auxiliary layer 170 is removed. The method of removing the auxiliary layer 170 includes wet etching or ashing.
[0051] refer to Fig. 9 As shown, a second trench 190 is formed in the dielectric layer 160 and the barrier layer 150, a first portion of the second trench 190 exposes the through silicon via 140, and a second portion of the second trench 190 is connected to the first trench 180. The second trench 190 is used to form a second rewiring layer.
[0052] In some embodiments of the present application, a method of forming the second trench 190 includes wet etching or dry etching.
[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, a first trench for making a second through hole is first formed, and then a second trench for making a second redistribution layer is formed, which can further improve the ability to make a through hole with a high aspect ratio.
[0054] refer to Fig.10As shown, a second redistribution layer 125 is formed in the second trench and a second through hole 124 is formed in the first trench.
[0055] In some embodiments of the present application, the aspect ratio of the second through hole 124 is greater than 6. The aspect ratio refers to the ratio of the through hole diameter to the through hole depth. The number of the second through hole 124 can be multiple.
[0056] In some embodiments of the present application, the method of forming the second redistribution layer 125 and the second through hole 124 includes: filling the first trench 180 and the second trench 190 with conductive material; and grinding away the conductive material above the surface of the second trench 190 .
[0057] In the method for forming a semiconductor structure described in an embodiment of the present application, a photolithography process is used to form a second through hole with a high aspect ratio, wherein an auxiliary layer is used to improve the photolithography effect, so that a through hole with a high aspect ratio of better quality can be produced. In addition, the selected photoresist layer material and auxiliary layer material and the corresponding formation process can be compatible with conventional processes to reduce costs.
