[0035] Figure 1 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of the packaging structure provided in one embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, one embodiment of this application provides a packaging structure 100, which includes: a cover plate 110; an outer wall 120 stacked on one side of the cover plate 110, the orthographic projection of the outer wall 120 on the cover plate 110 being a closed annular region; a wafer 130 stacked on the side of the outer wall 120 facing away from the cover plate 110, the cover plate 110, the outer wall 120 and the wafer 130 forming a cavity structure O, an electronic device 140 being disposed on the surface of the wafer 130 near the cover plate 110, the electronic device 140 being located within the cavity structure O, the wafer 130 including a first through-hole; and a wiring layer 150 filling the first through-hole.

[0036] Specifically, the packaging structure 100 can be an acoustic filter, and the electronic device 140 can be an interdigital transducer. The outer wall 120 can be an insulating layer, such as an organic dry film.

[0037] In one embodiment of the related technology, the wiring layer is led out through through-holes in the cover plate. However, making through-holes in the cover plate can easily lead to cracks in the cover plate, greatly increasing the risk of contaminating electronic devices and resulting in poor sealing and reliability.

[0038] In this embodiment, the wiring layer 150 is led out through the first through hole on the wafer 130, thereby ensuring the integrity of the cover plate 110. The complete cover plate 110, outer wall 120, wafer 130 and wiring layer 150 form a closed cavity structure O, making the electronic device 140 located in the cavity structure O less susceptible to contamination, thereby improving the sealing and reliability of the packaging structure 100.

[0039] refer to Figure 1 In the encapsulation structure 100 provided in this application embodiment, the orthographic projection of the first through hole on the cover plate 110 is located between the annular region and the orthographic projection of the electronic device 140 on the cover plate 110.

[0040] This application embodiment provides the projected positional relationship between the first through hole and the outer wall 120 and the electronic device 140. Since the wiring layer 150 fills the first through hole, it also provides the projected positional relationship between the wiring layer 150 and the outer wall 120 and the electronic device 140, thereby achieving the purpose of leading out the wiring layer 150 through the first through hole to ensure the integrity of the cover plate 110.

[0041] refer to Figure 1 In the packaging structure 100 provided in this application embodiment, the packaging structure 100 further includes: an electrode 160, which is stacked on the side of the wafer 130 near the cover plate 110 and in contact with the wiring layer 150. The electrode 160 is located within the cavity structure O. By setting the electrode 160 and having it in contact with the wiring layer 150, this application embodiment forms an important link in the electrical connection between the packaging structure 100 and the external circuit board.

[0042] Preferably, the orthographic projection of electrode 160 on cover plate 110 is located between the annular region and the orthographic projection of electronic device 140 on cover plate 110, thereby making electrode 160 contact with wiring layer 150.

[0043] Preferably, the orthographic projection of electrode 160 on cover plate 110 covers the orthographic projection of the first through hole on cover plate 110. As described above, the first through hole is filled with wiring layer 150, and the orthographic projection of electrode 160 on cover plate 110 covers the orthographic projection of the first through hole on cover plate 110. This ensures that the orthographic projection of electrode 160 on cover plate 110 covers the orthographic projection of wiring layer 150 in the first through hole on cover plate 110, thereby ensuring that electrode 160 and wiring layer 150 are in full contact, avoiding partial contact that could affect the reliability of the electrical connection and thus affect signal transmission.

[0044] Preferably, the packaging structure 100 further includes: a bump 170, which is stacked on the side of the wiring layer 150 away from the cover plate 110 and in contact with the wiring layer 150.

[0045] Specifically, the shape of the bump 170 can be hemispherical, spherical, elliptical, or cuboid. The shape of the bump 170 can be set according to actual needs, which will not be elaborated further here. Additionally, the material of the bump 170 can be metal, such as nickel-palladium-gold, nickel-gold, or tin-silver solder balls. The bump 170 is used to connect to external devices, such as external circuit boards, so that the package structure 100 transmits signals to and receives signals from the external device through the bump 170.

[0046] Preferably, the wiring layer 150 extends to the surface of the wafer 130 opposite to the cover plate 110, thereby increasing the coverage of the wiring layer 150, providing more options for the placement of the bumps 170, and improving the flexibility of the bump placement.

[0047] In another embodiment of the related technology, the wiring layer is led out from the side of the wafer and spans at least the packaging layer, electrode 160, passivation layer and wafer. This results in a long wiring layer, which increases the signal transmission time and causes adverse consequences such as delayed response.

[0048] In this embodiment, the wiring layer 150 passes directly through the wafer 130 via the first via, with one end contacting the bump 170 and the other end contacting the electrode 160. The wiring layer 150 provided in this embodiment only spans the wafer 130, greatly shortening its length and thus reducing signal transmission time, which is beneficial for rapid response.

[0049] refer to Figure 1 In the packaging structure 100 provided in this application embodiment, the packaging structure 100 further includes a passivation layer 181, which is stacked on the side of the wiring layer 150 facing away from the cover plate 110. The orthogonal projection of the wafer 130 on the cover plate 110 is located within the orthogonal projection range of the passivation layer 181 on the cover plate 110, thereby sealing all sides of the wafer 130 through the cover plate 110 and the passivation layer 181. For the electronic device 140, based on the closed cavity structure O formed by the cover plate 110, outer wall 120, wafer 130 and wiring layer 150, the passivation layer 181 is added as a protective barrier, thereby making the cover plate 110, outer wall 120, wafer 130 and wiring layer 150 less susceptible to water and oxygen corrosion from the external environment, and the electronic device 140 less susceptible to water and oxygen corrosion and less susceptible to contamination. Therefore, the embodiments of this application further improve the sealing performance and reliability of the packaging structure 100.

[0050] refer to Figure 1In the packaging structure 100 provided in this application embodiment, the passivation layer 181 includes a second via, which exposes a bump 170. This application embodiment provides the relative positional relationship between the passivation layer 181 and the bump 170, with the bump 170 passing through the second via of the passivation layer 181 and contacting the wiring layer 150.

[0051] Preferably, the edge of the orthographic projection of the wafer 130 on the cover plate 110 is located between the inner and outer edges of the annular region, so that the passivation layer 181 can completely cover the wafer 130 during the preparation of the passivation layer 181, thereby ensuring the sealing of the package structure 100.

[0052] refer to Figure 1 In the encapsulation structure 100 provided in this application embodiment, the orthographic projection of the outer wall 120 on the cover plate 110 is located within the orthographic projection range of the passivation layer 181 on the cover plate 110. This seals all sides of the outer wall 120 through the cover plate 110 and the passivation layer 181, making the electronic device 140 less susceptible to water and oxygen corrosion and less prone to contamination. Therefore, this application embodiment further improves the sealing performance and reliability of the encapsulation structure 100.

[0053] In another embodiment of this application, reference is made to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of a packaging structure provided in another embodiment of this application. In the packaging structure 100 provided in this embodiment, the packaging structure 100 further includes a passivation layer 181, stacked on the side of the wiring layer 150 facing away from the cover plate 110. The orthogonal projection of the passivation layer 181 on the cover plate 110 coincides with the orthogonal projection of the wafer 130 on the cover plate 110, thereby making the wafer 130 less susceptible to corrosion by water and oxygen in the external environment, and thus making the electronic device 140 less susceptible to water and oxygen corrosion and less prone to contamination. Therefore, this embodiment further improves the sealing performance and reliability of the packaging structure 100.

[0054] refer to Figure 2 In the packaging structure 100 provided in this application embodiment, the passivation layer 181 includes a second via, which exposes a bump 170. This application embodiment provides the relative positional relationship between the passivation layer 181 and the bump 170, with the bump 170 passing through the second via of the passivation layer 181 and contacting the wiring layer 150.

[0055] refer to Figure 2 In the encapsulation structure 100 provided in this application embodiment, the orthographic projection of the outer wall 120 on the cover plate 110 is located within the orthographic projection range of the passivation layer 181 on the cover plate 110.

[0056] In this embodiment, based on the use of a closed cavity structure O to surround the electronic device 140, a passivation layer 181 is added as a protective barrier, thereby further improving the sealing performance and reliability of the packaging structure 100.

[0057] In the encapsulation structure 100 provided in this application embodiment, the cover plate 110 is made of glass. It is understood that glass has good environmental resistance and mechanical stability, resulting in less warping during the manufacturing process. This avoids the problems associated with cover plates 110 made of other materials, such as the release of organic matter at high temperatures and easy collapse that could contaminate the electronic device 140. Therefore, the glass cover plate 110 provided in this application embodiment improves the sealing performance, reliability, and stability of the encapsulation structure 100.

[0058] The above describes in detail the specific contents of the packaging structure 100 provided in this application. Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides a corresponding packaging method. The specific steps of the packaging method are described below.

[0059] Figure 3 The diagram shown is a schematic flowchart of a packaging method provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 As shown, the encapsulation method provided in this application embodiment includes the following steps:

[0060] Step S31, provide wafer 130.

[0061] In step S32, a plurality of outer walls 120 are fabricated on one side of wafer 130. The orthographic projection of the outer wall 120 on wafer 130 is a closed annular region.

[0062] Step S33: Provide a cover plate 110 and bond the cover plate 110 to one side of the wafer 130 with an outer wall 120, so that the cover plate 110, the outer wall 120 and the wafer 130 form a cavity structure O.

[0063] In step S34, the cover plate 110 is cut into units of the outer wall 120 to obtain multiple encapsulation structures 100.

[0064] Among them, an electronic device 140 is disposed on the side surface of the wafer 130 near the cover plate 110. The electronic device 140 is located in the cavity structure O. The wafer 130 includes a first through hole, and the first through hole is filled with a wiring layer 150.

[0065] Figure 4 The diagram shown is a flowchart illustrating a packaging method provided in another embodiment of this application. Figure 4 As shown, after providing the cover plate 110 and bonding the cover plate 110 to one side of the wafer 130 having the outer wall 120, the packaging method further includes the following steps:

[0066] In step S41, a passivation layer 181 is prepared on the side of the wiring layer 150 facing away from the cover plate 110, and a second via is formed within the passivation layer 181. The orthogonal projection of the wafer 130 onto the cover plate 110 lies within the orthogonal projection range of the passivation layer 181 onto the cover plate 110, and the orthogonal projection of the wiring layer 150 onto the cover plate 110 covers the orthogonal projection of the second via onto the cover plate 110.

[0067] Step S42: Prepare a bump 170 in the second through hole, so that the bump 170 fills and protrudes from the second through hole.

[0068] Figures 5a to 5g The image shown is of this application. Figure 1 The diagram shows the process structure of the packaging structure, combined with... Figure 3 , 4 The flowchart of the encapsulation method shown is as follows: Figures 5a to 5g Detailed description Figure 1 The packaging method corresponding to the packaging structure 100 shown.

[0069] like Figure 5a As shown in steps S31 to S33, a wafer 130 is first provided; then an electronic device 140 and at least two electrodes 160 are formed on one side of the wafer 130, and a plurality of outer walls 120 are fabricated on the same side; then a cover plate 110 is provided, and the cover plate 110 is bonded to the side of the wafer 130 with the outer walls 120, so that the cover plate 110, the outer walls 120 and the wafer 130 form a cavity structure O.

[0070] As described above, the outer wall 120 can be an insulating layer. In the preparation process of the outer wall 120, a complete insulating layer is first prepared, and then the insulating layer is exposed and developed to form an opening that exposes the electronic device 140 and the electrode 160, thus forming the outer wall 120.

[0071] In this embodiment, a vacuum molding process is used to bond the cover plate 110 to the wafer 130.

[0072] like Figure 5b As shown, using the cover plate 110 as a carrier plate, the back side of the wafer 130 with the outer wall 120 is thinned so that the thickness of the wafer 130 meets the preset thickness threshold condition.

[0073] During the thinning process, the back side of the wafer 130 with the outer wall 120 is first ground and cleaned so that the thickness of the wafer 130 meets the preset thickness threshold condition; then the residual stress on the back side of the wafer 130 in the previous step is removed by etching or chemical mechanical polishing.

[0074] In this embodiment, the cover plate 110 serves two purposes: firstly, it forms a closed cavity structure O to seal the electronic device 140 within it; secondly, it is reused as a carrier plate for thinning the wafer 130, thus eliminating the need for an additional carrier plate. Therefore, this embodiment simplifies the packaging process, saves packaging materials, and reduces production costs.

[0075] like Figure 5c As shown, the back side of wafer 130 with outer wall 120 is etched to form a first via. The first via exposes electrode 160, and the etching method can be deep reactive ion etching.

[0076] Furthermore, after etching, the wafers 130 originally stacked between adjacent outer walls 120 are etched away to facilitate the subsequent preparation of the passivation layer 181 and the cutting of the cover plate 110.

[0077] like Figure 5d As shown, a seed layer is deposited on the exposed electrode 160, and metal is formed sequentially through sputtering, coating, photolithography, development, electroplating, resist removal, and etching processes to fill the first via and extend the metal to the surface of the wafer 130 opposite to the cover plate 110, thereby forming a wiring layer 150. The seed layer can be made of titanium or copper.

[0078] like Figure 5e As shown in step S41, a passivation layer 181 is prepared on the side of the wiring layer 150 facing away from the cover plate 110, and a second via is formed within the passivation layer 181. The orthogonal projection of the wafer 130 onto the cover plate 110 lies within the orthogonal projection range of the passivation layer 181 onto the cover plate 110, and the orthogonal projection of the wiring layer 150 onto the cover plate 110 covers the orthogonal projection of the second via onto the cover plate 110.

[0079] Specifically, the passivation layer 181 can be made of polymer organic materials, such as PI adhesive, to protect the cover plate 110, the outer wall 120, the wafer 130 and the wiring layer 150 from water and oxygen corrosion in the external environment.

[0080] like Figure 5f As shown in step S42, a bump 170 is prepared in the second through hole, so that the bump 170 fills and protrudes from the second through hole.

[0081] like Figure 5g As shown in step S34, the cover plate 110 is cut into units of the outer wall 120 to obtain multiple encapsulation structures 100.

[0082] The packaging method provided in this application embodiment leads out the wiring layer 150 through the first through hole on the wafer 130, thereby ensuring the integrity of the cover plate 110. The complete cover plate 110, outer wall 120, wafer 130 and wiring layer 150 form a closed cavity structure O, making the electronic device 140 located in the cavity structure O less susceptible to contamination. Furthermore, the passivation layer 181 completely covers the outer wall 120, wafer 130 and wiring layer 150, thereby making the packaging structure 100 have good sealing performance, reliability and stability.

[0083] This application also provides another encapsulation method. Figure 6 The diagram shown is a flowchart illustrating a packaging method provided in another embodiment of this application. Figure 6 As shown, after providing the cover plate 110 and bonding the cover plate 110 to one side of the wafer 130 having the outer wall 120, the packaging method further includes the following steps:

[0084] In step S61, a passivation layer 181 is prepared on the side of the wiring layer 150 facing away from the cover plate 110, and a second via is formed in the passivation layer 181. The orthogonal projection of the passivation layer 181 onto the cover plate 110 coincides with the orthogonal projection of the wafer 130 onto the cover plate 110, and the orthogonal projection of the wiring layer 150 onto the cover plate 110 covers the orthogonal projection of the second via onto the cover plate 110.

[0085] Step S62: Prepare a bump 170 in the second through hole, so that the bump 170 fills and protrudes from the second through hole.

[0086] Figures 7a to 7e The image shown is of this application. Figure 2 The diagram shows the process structure of the packaging structure, combined with... Figure 3 , 6 The flowchart of the encapsulation method shown is as follows: Figures 7a to 7e Detailed description Figure 2 The packaging method corresponding to the packaging structure 100 shown.

[0087] like Figure 7a As shown in step S31, a wafer 130 is first provided; then one side of the wafer 130 is etched to form a blind via; then metal is electroplated into the blind via to fill it; then, as in step S32, an electronic device 140 and at least two electrodes 160 are formed on the same side of the wafer 130, and a plurality of outer walls 120 are fabricated on the same side; then, as in step S33, a cover plate 110 is provided, and the cover plate 110 is bonded to the side of the wafer 130 with the outer walls 120, so that the cover plate 110, the outer walls 120 and the wafer 130 form a cavity structure O.

[0088] like Figure 7bAs shown, using cover plate 110 as a carrier, the back side of wafer 130 with outer wall 120 is thinned to expose metal on the back side of wafer 130 with outer wall 120. Specifically, TSV back-side copper exposure process is used to thin wafer 130.

[0089] like Figure 7c As shown, on the back side of the wafer 130 with the outer wall 120, metal is formed sequentially through sputtering, coating, photolithography, development, electroplating, resist removal and etching processes, so that the metal exposed after thinning extends to the surface of the wafer 130 away from the cover plate 110, thereby forming a wiring layer 150.

[0090] like Figure 7d As shown in step S61, a passivation layer 181 is prepared on the side of the wiring layer 150 facing away from the cover plate 110, and a second via is formed in the passivation layer 181. The orthogonal projection of the passivation layer 181 onto the cover plate 110 coincides with the orthogonal projection of the wafer 130 onto the cover plate 110, and the orthogonal projection of the wiring layer 150 onto the cover plate 110 covers the orthogonal projection of the second via onto the cover plate 110.

[0091] Specifically, the passivation layer 181 can be made of polymer organic materials, such as PI adhesive, to protect the cover plate 110, the outer wall 120, the wafer 130 and the wiring layer 150 from water and oxygen corrosion in the external environment.

[0092] like Figure 7e As shown in step S62, a bump 170 is prepared in the second through hole, so that the bump 170 fills and protrudes from the second through hole. Then, as shown in step S34, the cover plate 110 is cut in units of the outer wall 120 to obtain multiple encapsulation structures 100.

[0093] The packaging method provided in this application embodiment leads out the wiring layer 150 through the first through hole on the wafer 130, thereby ensuring the integrity of the cover plate 110. Thus, the complete cover plate 110, outer wall 120, wafer 130 and wiring layer 150 form a closed cavity structure O, making the electronic device 140 located in the cavity structure O less susceptible to contamination. Furthermore, this application embodiment adopts a method of first forming blind vias and then bonding the cover plate 110 to the side of the wafer 130 with the outer wall 120. This method has a mature process route and is simple and easy to implement.

[0094] Both packaging methods described above involve first forming a closed cavity structure O using a complete cover plate 110, outer wall 120, wafer 130, and wiring layer 150, with the electronic device 140 located within this cavity structure O. Then, the cover plate 110 is cut to obtain multiple package structures 100. It is important to emphasize that both packaging methods enclose and protect the electronic device 140 before cutting the cover plate 110, thus preventing contamination of the electronic device 140 during the cutting process and improving the reliability of the package structure 100. Furthermore, both packaging methods are suitable for mass production with high production efficiency.
