[0086] The technical solutions of this disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Although exemplary embodiments of this disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of this disclosure and to fully convey the scope of this disclosure to those skilled in the art.
[0087] The present disclosure is described in more detail below by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. The advantages and features of the present disclosure will become clearer from the following description and claims. It should be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions, and are only used to facilitate and clarify the illustration of the embodiments of the present disclosure.
[0088] It is understood that the meanings of “on”, “above” and “above” in this disclosure should be interpreted in the broadest sense, such that “on” means not only that it is “on” something without any intervening feature or layer (i.e., directly on something), but also that it is “on” something with an intervening feature or layer.
[0089] In the embodiments of this disclosure, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.
[0090] In embodiments of this disclosure, the term "layer" refers to a portion of material comprising a region having thickness. A layer may extend over the entirety of a lower or upper structure, or may have a range smaller than that of the lower or upper structure. Furthermore, a layer may be a region of a homogeneous or heterogeneous continuous structure with a thickness less than the thickness of the continuous structure. For example, a layer may be located between the top and bottom surfaces of a continuous structure, or a layer may be located between any horizontal faces at the top and bottom surfaces of the continuous structure. A layer may extend horizontally, vertically, and / or along an inclined surface. A layer may include multiple sublayers.
[0091] It should be noted that the technical solutions described in the embodiments of this disclosure can be combined arbitrarily without conflict.
[0092] Figure 1a and Figure 1b This is a schematic diagram of a semiconductor structure 100 according to an exemplary embodiment. The semiconductor structure 100 includes a logic chip 110 and a plurality of memory chips (such as memory chips stacked on the logic chip) Figure 1a The four memory chips shown are labeled as memory chips 101, 102, 103, and 104, respectively; or, (as shown in the image) Figure 1b The six memory chips shown are labeled as memory chips 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, and 106, respectively.
[0093] In the semiconductor structure 100, the memory chip and the logic chip transmit data signals via wired communication and power and ground signals via wired power supply. For example, the memory chip and the logic chip are physically connected through a through-silicon via (TSV) 120 and a bump 130 for wired communication and wired power supply.
[0094] However, the varying communication distances between different memory chips and logic chips will lead to inconsistent communication latency among them. Furthermore, the more memory chips stacked, the greater the communication distance between the topmost memory chip and the logic chip (e.g., ...). Figure 1b The communication distance between the dashed box ① and the lowest-level memory chip and logic chip (as shown in the middle) is (e.g.) Figure 1b The difference between the two (as shown in the dashed box ②) is significant, resulting in a large difference in communication delay between the top-level memory chip and the bottom-level memory chip and the logic chip, which affects the operating speed of the product.
[0095] In view of this, the present disclosure provides a semiconductor structure and a method for fabricating the same.

[0101] Semiconductor structure 200 may be a memory including logic chips and memory chips, such as high-bandwidth memory, or other memory known in the art.
[0102] The substrate 270 includes a packaging substrate for carrying the chip. For example, a low-temperature co-fired ceramic substrate or a printed circuit board.
[0103] Logic chip 210 may be one or more processors that communicate with the memory chip to access data from the memory chip or to store data in the memory chip. Logic chip 210 includes: a graphics processing unit (GPU), a field-programmable gate array (FPGA), an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a central processing unit (CPU), or other known electronic circuitry used as a processor.
[0104] The communication module 220 is used to realize the transmission of data signals between the logic chip and the memory chip. For example, the communication module 220 is used to transmit data signals sent from the logic chip to the memory chip that will be stored in the memory chip to the memory chip, or to receive data signals accessed from the memory chip and transmit them to the logic chip. The communication module 220 can be a Bluetooth chip, a WIFI chip, or other known wireless communication chip.
[0105] A chip can integrate chips with different functions and / or chips with different process nodes. For example, in this embodiment, the first chip 201 integrates a first memory chip 2011 and a first communication chip 2012, where the process technology of the first memory chip 2011 is less advanced than that of the first communication chip 2012. In a specific example, the first memory chip 2011 can be a DRAM chip, and the first communication chip 2012 can be a Wi-Fi chip. In other embodiments, the first memory chip 2011 can be other known memory chips, the first communication chip 2012 can be other known wireless communication chips, and the first chip 201 can also integrate other functional chips and / or chips with other process nodes.
[0106] In one example, logic chip 210 transmits data signals to be stored in first memory chip 2011 via communication module 220 and first communication chip 2012. In another example, logic chip 210 receives data signals accessed from first memory chip 2011 via first communication chip 2012 and communication module 220.
[0107] In this embodiment, by incorporating a first chip, which includes a first memory chip and a first communication chip, the first memory chip can wirelessly communicate with the logic chip via the first communication chip and a communication module. This allows for the stacking of multiple chips on the logic chip, achieving three-dimensional stacked packaging and improving semiconductor structure integration. Furthermore, compared to wired communication, this embodiment enables wireless communication by incorporating a first communication chip, ensuring minimal differences in communication latency between memory chips within different chips. Moreover, the first memory chip and the first communication chip can be manufactured using different process technologies, which helps reduce chip design complexity and save on process costs.
[0108] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the semiconductor structure 200 includes at least two first chips 201, located on the logic chip 210 and electrically connected to the logic chip 210 respectively; wherein the distance between the first communication chip and the communication module 220 of the first first chip is the same as the distance between the first communication chip and the communication module 220 of the second first chip. For example, as Figure 2 As shown, the distance between the first communication chip 2012 located on the left side of the communication module 220 and the communication module 220 is the same as the distance between the first communication chip 2012 located on the right side of the communication module 220 and the communication module 220. In this way, the communication delay of the first memory chip in each first chip can be basically consistent.
[0109] It should be noted that the number of the first core 201 is not limited to... Figure 2The two shown can also be three or more.
[0110] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating another semiconductor structure 200 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. (Refer to...) Figure 3 As shown, the semiconductor structure 200 also includes:

[0112] Semiconductor structure 200 includes multiple memory stacks, such as Figure 3 As shown, there is a first memory stack 200-1 and a second memory stack 200-2. Taking the first memory stack 200-1 as an example, the first memory stack 200-1 includes at least two cores. The first core 201 may be the lowest core in the first memory stack 200-1, and the second core 204 may be the highest core in the first memory stack 200-1.
[0113] The second chip 204 integrates a second memory chip 2041 and a second communication chip 2042. In this embodiment, the second memory chip 2041 is the same as the first memory chip 2011, and the second communication chip 2042 is the same as the first communication chip 2012; that is, the second memory chip 2041 is a DRAM chip, and the second communication chip 2042 is a WIFI chip. In other embodiments, the second memory chip 2041 and the first memory chip 2011 may be different; and / or, the second communication chip 2042 and the first communication chip 2012 may be different. The second chip 204 may also integrate other functional chips and / or chips from other process nodes.
[0114] In one example, the second storage stack 200-2 may have the same structure as the first storage stack 200-1. In another example, the communication module 220 may be located between the first storage stack 200-1 and the second storage stack 200-2.
[0115] In one example, logic chip 210 transmits data signals to be stored in second memory chip 2041 via communication module 220 and second communication chip 2042. In another example, logic chip 210 receives data signals accessed from second memory chip 2041 via second communication chip 2042 and communication module 220.
[0116] In one example, the distance between the first communication chip 2012 and the communication module 220 in the first storage stack 200-1 is the same as the distance between the first communication chip 2012 and the communication module 220 in the second storage stack 200-2; the distance between the second communication chip 2042 and the communication module 220 in the first storage stack 200-1 is the same as the distance between the second communication chip 2042 and the communication module 220 in the second storage stack 200-2. In this way, the communication latency of storage chips at the same level in different storage stacks can be basically consistent.
[0117] In this embodiment, by providing a second chip, which includes a second memory chip and a second communication chip, the second memory chip can wirelessly communicate with the logic chip via the second communication chip and a communication module. Data signals are transmitted wirelessly between the first and second memory chips and the logic chip, effectively reducing the latency of signal transmission between the memory chips and the logic chip and improving data transmission efficiency. Furthermore, the second memory chip and the second communication chip can be manufactured using different process technologies, which helps reduce chip design complexity and save process costs.
[0118] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the first core 201 also includes:

[0124] The first conductive structure 241a is located in the first dielectric layer 231; wherein, the active surface of the first memory chip 2011 is electrically connected to the logic chip 210 through the first conductive structure 241a.
[0125] The second conductive structure 244a is located in the second dielectric layer 234; wherein, the active surface of the second memory chip 2041 is electrically connected to the logic chip 210 through the second conductive structure 244a, the first path 2014, and the first conductive structure 241a.
[0126] by Figure 3Taking the first memory stack 200-1, which includes two chips (i.e., the first chip 201 and the second chip 204), as an example, power and ground signals are transmitted between the logic chip 210 and the first memory chip 2011 through a first conductive structure 241a. Power and ground signals are transmitted between the logic chip 210 and the second memory chip 2041 through the first conductive structure 241a, a first path 2014, and a second conductive structure 244a. In one example, the second conductive structure 244a is in direct contact with the first path 2014, meaning no other conductive structure is provided between the second conductive structure 244a and the first path 2014. In another example, the second conductive structure 244a and the first path 2014 are electrically connected through other conductive structures, such as... Figure 3 As shown, electrical bonding is achieved through a conductive structure located on the non-active surface (denoted as the back side of the first core) of the first core 201.

In one example, the first via 2014 includes an adhesion layer, a seed layer, and a conductive layer (not shown in the figure) sequentially disposed from the via wall to the via axis. The adhesion layer is used to increase the adhesion between the seed layer and the first molding layer 2013. The seed layer serves as a nucleation center for the conductive layer, which is beneficial for the subsequent deposition of the conductive layer. In a specific example, the seed layer and the conductive layer are made of the same material.
[0129] The materials of the first dielectric layer 231 and the second dielectric layer 234 include dielectric materials, such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, or silicon nitride. The first dielectric layer 231 covers the active surface of the first chip 201 (denoted as the front side of the first chip), and the second dielectric layer 234 covers the active surface of the second chip 204 (denoted as the front side of the second chip). The materials of the first dielectric layer 231 and the second dielectric layer 234 may be the same or different.
[0130] The materials of the first conductive structure 241a and the second conductive structure 244a include conductive materials, such as copper, aluminum, platinum, gold, tungsten, or nickel. The first conductive structure 241a constitutes part of the redistribution layer (RDL) on the front side of the first chip, and the second conductive structure 244a constitutes part of the redistribution layer on the front side of the second chip. The materials of the first conductive structure 241a and the second conductive structure 244a may be the same or different.
[0131] In this embodiment of the disclosure, by setting a first conductive structure, a second conductive structure, and a first passage penetrating the first molding layer, memory chips and logic chips in different chips can be electrically connected, thereby vertically transmitting power signals and ground signals of memory chips in different layers of the memory stack, without the need to fabricate TSVs, which helps to reduce process costs.
[0132] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the semiconductor structure 200 also includes:
[0133] The first electrical connection structure 241b is located in the first dielectric layer 231; wherein the first memory chip 2011 is electrically connected to the first communication chip 2012 through the first electrical connection structure 241b.
[0134] The second electrical connection structure 244b is located in the second dielectric layer 234; wherein the second memory chip 2041 is electrically connected to the second communication chip 2042 through the second electrical connection structure 244b.
[0135] In a specific example, the length of the first electrical connection structure 241b is the same as the length of the second electrical connection structure 244b.
