[0002] With the rapid development of information technology and the sharp increase in data traffic, integrated circuit packaging technology is developing towards low cost, high reliability, fast transmission and high-density circuits. The demand for data center interconnection bandwidth will continue to grow exponentially. It is predicted that by 2030, the power consumption of data centers will continue to grow, and the global data center power consumption will exceed 3PWh, and the worst case may be as high as 8PWh. In order to meet the demand for Internet traffic, the bandwidth of data center nodes needs to reach 10Tb / s. In order to slow down the trend of increasing energy consumption of data centers, it is necessary to find ways to reduce the power consumption of systems and devices.
[0003] The number of input / output (I / O) pins of each packaging structure is almost doubled every 6 years, and the total I / O bandwidth is doubled every 3-4 years. To solve the difference between the number of pins and the bandwidth, the bandwidth of I / O needs to be increased. Light has the performance of small signal attenuation, low energy consumption, high bandwidth and compatibility with CMOS, which can directly affect the bandwidth and energy consumption of I / O. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce silicon optical technology to increase the I / O bandwidth and maximize the reduction of energy consumption.

[0118] The following will be combined Figures 3 to 17 , detailing the various steps of the method for preparing the 3DIC optoelectronic integrated semiconductor packaging structure of the present invention.
[0119] First see Figure 3 , perform step S1: provide a TSV substrate 21, form a first redistribution layer 23 on the first surface of the TSV substrate 21, a TSV metal column 22 is provided in the TSV substrate 21, the first surface of the TSV substrate 21 exposes the top of the TSV metal column 22, and the first redistribution layer 23 is electrically connected to the TSV metal column 22.
[0120] As an example, the TSV substrate 21 may include a wafer-level substrate of a size of 4 inches, 6 inches, 8 inches, 12 inches, etc., to further improve process efficiency, but the size of the TSV substrate 21 is not limited thereto.
[0121] As an example, the first rewiring layer 23 may be a rewiring layer using a Damascus process, including a dielectric layer and metal wiring embedded in the dielectric layer, wherein the material of the dielectric layer may include silicon oxide or silicon nitride, etc., and the material of the metal wiring may include copper, aluminum, etc. A smaller line width and line spacing can be obtained through the first rewiring layer 23 to meet subsequent high-density connection requirements. The material, number of layers, layout, preparation method, etc. of the first rewiring layer 23 can be selected as needed and are not excessively restricted here.
[0122] Please refer to Figure 4 , perform the step S2: provide a first electrical chip 24 and a second electrical chip 25, and bond the first electrical chip 24 and the second electrical chip 25 to the first rewiring layer 23 so that the first electrical chip 24 and the second electrical chip 25 are electrically connected to the first rewiring layer 23 respectively.
[0123] As an example, the first electrical chip 24 includes an ASIC chip, and the ASIC chip can be used to stack the subsequent 3D chips 218 (such as Figure 15 ) is converted into an optical signal, but the type of the first electrical chip 24 is not limited thereto and can be selected according to specific needs.
[0124] As an example, the bonding replaces traditional bump or solder ball interconnection through direct copper-to-copper connection, which can simplify the bonding interconnection process, reduce the size of the stack and package, reduce the power of the interconnection channel, and improve the heat dissipation capability.
[0125] As an example, see Figure 5After bonding the first electric chip 24 and the second electric chip 25 to the first rewiring layer 23, the step of thinning the first electric chip 24 and the second electric chip 25 is also included. Mechanical grinding, chemical mechanical grinding, plasma dry chemical etching and other processes can be used to thin the first electric chip 24 and the second electric chip 25 to facilitate subsequent processes. There is no excessive limitation here. In this embodiment, a mechanical grinding process is used to achieve a smooth grinding surface. The thinning of the first electric chip 24 and the second electric chip 25 can shorten the transmission distance and reduce the thickness of the package.
[0126] See also Figure 6 , performing the step S3 : forming a dielectric layer 26 covering the first electrical chip 24 and the second electrical chip 25 on the first rewiring layer 23 .
[0127] As an example, the material of the dielectric layer 26 may be silicon oxide, but is not limited thereto. Inorganic materials such as silicon nitride or aluminum oxide may also be used as needed, and no further restrictions are imposed herein.
[0128] See also Figures 7 to 8 , performing the step S4: forming a conductive pillar 27 in the dielectric layer 26, the conductive pillar 27 penetrating the dielectric layer 26 to be electrically connected to the first redistribution layer 23, thinning the dielectric layer 26 to expose the conductive pillar 27, the first electrical chip 24 and the second electrical chip 25, wherein, Figure 7 It is a schematic diagram showing the structure obtained after forming the conductive pillar 27. Figure 8 It is a schematic diagram showing the structure obtained after thinning the dielectric layer 26 .
[0129] As an example, forming the conductive pillars 27 may include forming through-holes (not shown) penetrating the dielectric layer 26 and filling the through-holes with metal. The drilling method may include laser drilling or mechanical drilling, which can be selected based on specific needs. The metal filling method may include electroplating. The specific steps for preparing the conductive pillars 27, the dimensions of the conductive pillars 27, and the distribution of the conductive pillars 27 are not overly limited and can be selected based on specific needs. The conductive pillars 27 may be made of copper, but are not limited thereto. Other conductive metal materials may also be used.
[0130] As an example, mechanical grinding, chemical mechanical grinding, plasma dry chemical etching or other suitable processes can be used to thin the dielectric layer 26 to expose the conductive pillars 27, the first electrical chip 24 and the second electrical chip 25. There is no excessive limitation here. In this embodiment, a chemical mechanical grinding process is used to obtain a relatively flat surface to facilitate subsequent processes.
[0131] See also Figure 9 , performing the step S5: forming a second redistribution layer 28 on the dielectric layer 26 , wherein the second redistribution layer 28 is electrically connected to the top of the conductive pillar 27 .
[0132] As an example, the second rewiring layer 28 may be a rewiring layer using a Damascus process, including a dielectric layer and metal wiring embedded in the dielectric layer, wherein the material of the dielectric layer may include silicon oxide or silicon nitride, etc., and the material of the metal wiring may include copper, aluminum, etc. The material, number of layers, layout, preparation method, etc. of the second rewiring layer 28 can be selected according to needs and are not excessively restricted here.
[0133] As an example, before forming the second rewiring layer 28 on the dielectric layer 26, a step of forming a first heat dissipation layer 29 on the upper surface of the first electric chip 24 and / or forming a second heat dissipation layer 210 on the upper surface of the second electric chip 25 can be performed to improve the heat dissipation capability and reduce power consumption. In this embodiment, a metal layer, preferably a copper layer, is electroplated on the invalid area (area without electrical connection) on the back of the first electric chip 24 and the second electric chip 25 to conduct heat for the first electric chip 24 and the second electric chip 25.
[0134] See also Figure 10 , performing step S6: providing a first supporting substrate 211 , and bonding the second rewiring layer 28 to the first supporting substrate 211 .
[0135] As an example, the first supporting substrate 211 may include a glass substrate, a metal substrate, a semiconductor substrate, etc., so that the first supporting substrate 211 can provide support for the subsequent preparation process. In order to facilitate the subsequent removal of the first supporting substrate 211, in this embodiment, a first separation layer 212 is preferably formed on the surface of the first supporting substrate 211. The first separation layer 212 includes but is not limited to one of a tape and a polymer layer. For example, the first separation layer 212 can optionally use a photothermal conversion layer, so that the first separation layer 212 can be subsequently heated by, for example, a laser to separate the first supporting substrate 211 from the second rewiring layer 28, thereby improving operational convenience.
[0136] See also Figure 11 , performing step S7: thinning the TSV substrate 21 to expose the bottom end of the TSV metal pillar 22, forming a third redistribution layer 213 on the second surface of the TSV substrate 21, and the third redistribution layer 213 is electrically connected to the TSV metal pillar 22.
[0137] As an example, a chemical mechanical polishing process can be used to expose the bottom end of the TSV metal column 22 and provide the TSV substrate 21 with a relatively flat surface to facilitate subsequent processes. Of course, only a process such as mechanical polishing can be used to expose the TSV metal column 22, and no further restrictions are given here.
[0138] As an example, the third rewiring layer 213 may be a rewiring layer using a Damascus process, including a dielectric layer and metal wiring embedded in the dielectric layer, wherein the material of the dielectric layer may include silicon oxide or silicon nitride, etc., and the material of the metal wiring may include copper, aluminum, etc. The material, number of layers, layout, preparation method, etc. of the third rewiring layer 213 can be selected according to needs and no excessive restrictions are imposed here.
[0139] See also Figure 12 , executing step S8: forming a metal bump 214 on the third redistribution layer 213 , wherein the metal bump 214 is electrically connected to the third redistribution layer 213 .
