Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of chip packaging technology, and more specifically, to an apparatus and method for preparing copper sulfate electroplating solution for chip packaging. Background Technology

[0002] Copper plating is a common metal plating process that improves the appearance, performance, and corrosion resistance of metals by depositing a layer of copper onto their surfaces. Copper is considered an excellent metal interconnect material in chips due to its excellent electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity, low melting point, and good ductility. Copper plating is a key technology for metal interconnects in packaging, and it relies heavily on high-quality plating solutions. CuSO4 copper plating solution is a commonly used copper plating solution, composed of copper sulfate (CuSO4) and other auxiliary agents.

[0003] Currently, Damascus copper interconnect technology is widely used in integrated circuit manufacturing processes. Copper deposition technology is a key technology in Damascus copper interconnect technology. Whether the copper deposited in the microgrooves (holes) is dense and free of voids or cracks directly affects the resistivity and anti-migration performance of the copper interconnect lines. The key semiconductor material for realizing Damascus copper interconnect technology is high-purity copper sulfate electroplating solution. The purity requirements of this product are very high; otherwise, the reliability of the copper wiring will be affected. At present, most methods for producing ultra-clean, high-purity copper sulfate electroplating solution for copper interconnects at home and abroad are ordinary chemical methods. This involves using high-purity copper (purity greater than 99.999%) and high-purity sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and hydrogen peroxide (SEMI-CI grade or above) as raw materials to prepare a dilute copper sulfate solution. The solution is then evaporated and concentrated to saturation, cooled, and crystallized to precipitate CuSO4·5H2O crystals. Finally, ultrapure water is used to prepare the solution according to the product's technical requirements. This method has a long process route, high requirements for raw material quality, and cannot control the fluctuation of metal impurity content in the raw materials. After the reaction, H2O2 or HNO3 needs to be removed, resulting in the emission of waste gas and wastewater, which pollutes the environment and has high production costs. For linewidth designs below 65nm, it is difficult to guarantee reliability. Summary of the Invention

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the resin tank is made of aminophosphonic acid chelating resin.

[0012] This invention further discloses a method for preparing a copper sulfate electroplating solution for chip packaging, which uses the aforementioned copper sulfate electroplating solution preparation apparatus for chip packaging and includes the following steps:

[0013] S1: First, add a certain amount of ultrapure water to the copper sulfate solution preparation tank, turn on the self-circulation system of the preparation tank, and the electroplating high-grade pentahydrate copper sulfate is sucked into the feeding volume hopper through the negative pressure feeder. The feeding volume hopper is placed on a high-precision electronic scale, and the weight is connected to the regulating valve at the outlet of the negative pressure feeder. The weight of the pentahydrate copper sulfate is precisely controlled by the combined process of volume and weight. The pentahydrate copper sulfate is slowly added to the preparation tank, and the circulation time is 2-4 hours.

[0014] S2: After the copper sulfate solution is prepared, it passes through a microporous filter and a resin tank to remove particulate matter and some metal ions before entering the electroplating solution preparation tank.

[0022] 3. The electroplating solution preparation tank of the present invention is equipped with an ultrapure water spiral spray head.

[0024] 5.

[0029] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present invention can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the embodiments.

[0030] Example 1:

The copper sulfate pentahydrate feeding pipeline is equipped with a feed volume silo 3 and a pneumatic valve 17. The amount of copper sulfate added is controlled by the feed volume silo 3 and the weighing device.

[0033] The copper sulfate solution preparation tank 5 is connected to the electroplating solution preparation tank 9 via a microporous filter 7 and a resin tank 8. After the copper sulfate solution is prepared in the copper sulfate solution preparation tank 5, it is added to the electroplating solution preparation tank 9 through a preparation pump 6. The electroplating solution preparation tank 9 is equipped with an electronic grade sulfuric acid feeding pipeline 18, an electronic grade hydrochloric acid feeding pipeline 19, an ultrapure water feeding pipeline 15, and an organic additive feeding pipeline 20.

The reagents required for the preparation of the electroplating solution are added in a specific order through the above pipelines to prepare the electroplating solution.

[0034] The electroplating solution preparation tank 9 is equipped with an ultrapure water addition spiral nozzle 10. Since the electroplating solution is produced intermittently, the spiral nozzle 10 is used to spray ultrapure water to clean the inner wall and device of the equipment for each batch of preparation, so as to reduce the interference of organic additives accumulated on the inner lining wall on the next batch of preparation.

[0035] The electroplating solution preparation tank 9, the preparation pump 11, and the heat exchanger 12 form a circulation system, and the electroplating solution is filled through the microporous filter 13.

The feeding volume chamber 3 is placed on the high-precision electronic scale 4, and the weight is connected to the regulating valve at the outlet of the negative pressure feeder 2. The weight of the pentahydrate copper sulfate is precisely controlled by the combined process of volume and weight. The pentahydrate copper sulfate is slowly added to the preparation tank, and the circulation time is 2-4 hours.

[0040] S2: After the copper sulfate solution is prepared, it passes through a microporous filter 7 and a resin tank 8 to remove particulate matter and some metal ions before entering the electroplating solution preparation tank 9. The circulating heat exchange system of the electroplating solution preparation tank 9 is turned on to cool it down. Then, ultrapure water, electronic grade sulfuric acid, and electronic grade hydrochloric acid are added in sequence according to the proportion. The reagents are added while circulating and cooling. The temperature is controlled at 25-35℃ during the preparation process and after preparation.

[0041] S3: Organic additives, including leveling agents, inhibitors, and accelerators, are added sequentially to the electroplating base solution. The amount of organic additives added is controlled by a mass flow meter 16. The diameter of the feeding pipeline is less than 10 mm. The mass flow meter 16 and the pneumatic valve 17 on the organic additive pipeline are both connected to the DCS. Each reagent is added at 5-10 minute intervals.

The fixed-volume silo in S1 is elliptical with a smooth arc to avoid raw material residue. The regulating valve at the outlet of the negative pressure feeder 2 is interlocked with the electronic scale 4. As the weight approaches the target value, the regulating valve automatically closes until it is closed, thus precisely controlling the weight.
