[0042] The exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the specific embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided in order to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0043] In the following description, a large number of specific details are given to provide a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present disclosure can be implemented without one or more of these details. In other examples, in order to avoid confusion with the present disclosure, some technical features known in the art are not described; that is, all features of actual embodiments are not described here, and well-known functions and structures are not described in detail.

[0044] In the drawings, the sizes of layers, regions, elements and their relative sizes may be exaggerated for clarity. Like reference numerals denote like elements throughout.

[0045] It should be understood that when an element or layer is referred to as "on ...", "adjacent to ...", "connected to" or "coupled to" other elements or layers, it can be directly on, adjacent to, connected to or coupled to other elements or layers, or there can be intervening elements or layers. On the contrary, when an element is referred to as "directly on ...", "directly adjacent to ...", "directly connected to" or "directly coupled to" other elements or layers, there is no intervening element or layer. It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc. can be used to describe various elements, components, regions, layers and / or parts, these elements, components, regions, layers and / or parts should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or part from another element, component, region, layer or part. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the present disclosure, the first element, component, region, layer or part discussed below can be represented as the second element, component, region, layer or part. And when the second element, component, region, layer or part is discussed, it does not indicate that the present disclosure necessarily has the first element, component, region, layer or part.

[0046] Spatially relative terms such as "under", "beneath", "below", "under", "above", "above", etc., may be used here for convenience of description to describe the relationship between an element or feature shown in the figure and other elements or features. It should be understood that in addition to the orientation shown in the figure, the spatial relationship terms are intended to also include different orientations of the device in use and operation. For example, if the device in the accompanying drawings is turned over, then the elements or features described as "under other elements" or "under it" or "under it" will be oriented as "on" other elements or features. Therefore, the exemplary terms "under" and "under" may include both upper and lower orientations. The device can be oriented otherwise (rotated 90 degrees or other orientations) and the spatial descriptors used herein are interpreted accordingly.

[0047] The purpose of the terms used herein is only to describe specific embodiments and is not intended to be a limitation of the present disclosure. When used herein, the singular forms "one", "an" and "said / the" are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the terms "consisting of" and / or "comprising", when used in this specification, determine the presence of the features, integers, steps, operations, elements and / or parts, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, parts and / or groups. When used herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of the relevant listed items.

[0048] In order to enable a more detailed understanding of the features and technical contents of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the implementation of the embodiments of the present disclosure is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The attached drawings are for reference only and are not used to limit the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0049] As the feature size of memory decreases and the interconnection density increases, memory is developing towards three-dimensional direction. Among them, hybrid bonding technology can realize the three-dimensional integration of two different functional chips (also known as tube cores). For example, hybrid bonding of memory array chips and peripheral circuit chips can realize three-dimensional memory with smaller size, higher interconnection density and lower power consumption.

[0050] The hybrid bonding process can be divided into wafer to wafer (W2W) bonding, chip to wafer (C2W) bonding and chip to chip (C2C) bonding according to the bonding object. In the current chip to wafer bonding equipment, it is necessary to separately configure the ejector pin component, the suction nozzle component and the bonding head component. Each component is combined to match the size of a product chip. In other words, when the size of the product chip changes, it is necessary to replace the ejector pin component, the suction nozzle component and the bonding head component of different sizes to lift or take chips of different sizes. Although the automatic change function is currently realized, calibration is required after the replacement, which takes a lot of time and affects the normal operation of the machine. In addition, the number of components that can be installed on the machine is limited. In addition, when the specifications of the product chip change, it is not possible to quickly take different product chips.

[0051] The present disclosure provides a semiconductor device, such as Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, it includes: a ejector pin component 101; the ejector pin component 101 includes a first base 102 and a plurality of ejector pins 103 located on the top of the first base 102; the distribution range of the plurality of ejector pins 103 covers a plurality of chips of different sizes that need to be ejected, and the ejection height of each of the plurality of ejector pins 103 can be individually controlled to eject chips of different sizes.

[0052] In the disclosed embodiment, the distribution range of the plurality of ejector pins 103 covers a plurality of chips of different sizes that need to be ejected, and the ejection height of each of the plurality of ejector pins 103 can be individually controlled, so that the ejector pin structure can be used to eject chips of different sizes, thereby achieving compatibility with chips of different sizes, achieving efficiency of semiconductor equipment or bonding, and effectively improving the hourly chip output rate and normal operating rhythm of semiconductor equipment.

[0053] In some specific examples, the area that the ejector pins 103 need to cover can be calculated according to the sizes of multiple product chips, so that the distribution range of the multiple ejector pins 103 can cover multiple chips of different sizes that need to be lifted. Each chip of the multiple chips of different sizes that need to be lifted has a corresponding length and width. The length of the chip with the largest length among the multiple chips of different sizes that need to be lifted is recorded as the first length, and the width of the chip with the largest width among the multiple chips of different sizes that need to be lifted is recorded as the first width. Exemplarily, the shape of the distribution range of the multiple ejector pins 103 can be a rectangle, the length of the rectangle can be the aforementioned first length, and the width of the rectangle can be the aforementioned first width; or, the length of the rectangle can be a length slightly smaller than the first length, and the width of the rectangle can be a width slightly smaller than the first width; or, the length of the rectangle can be a length slightly larger than the aforementioned first length, and the width of the rectangle can be a width slightly larger than the aforementioned first width. In other specific examples, the shape of the distribution range of the multiple ejector pins 103 can also be a circle, a square, etc., but the size of the circle or the square can cover all chips of different sizes that need to be lifted.

[0054] In some embodiments, the ejector component 101 further includes a plurality of first adjustment structures; the first adjustment structures are located in the first base 102 , each of the first adjustment structures is connected to one of the ejectors 103 , and the first adjustment structures are used to adjust the ejection height of the ejector 103 .

[0055] It is understandable that each ejector pin 103 may be connected to a corresponding first adjustment structure, and the ejection height of the corresponding ejector pin 103 may be adjusted through the first adjustment structure. All of the ejector pins 103 may be ejected, or only a portion of the ejector pins 103 may be ejected, and the ejection height may be adjusted. The ejector pins 103 in the corresponding area may be selected to be ejected according to the size of the chip that currently needs to be ejected.

[0056] The ejector pin 103 in the embodiment of the present disclosure has a function of controllable elasticity, that is, the ejector pin 103 in the embodiment of the present disclosure can adjust the ejection height of the ejector pin 103 through the above-mentioned first adjustment structure. When the ejection height of the ejector pin 103 is 0, it can be considered that the ejector pin 103 is not ejected.

[0057] In some embodiments, the first adjustment structure includes a first cylinder unit and a first motor unit.

[0058] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first cylinder unit can be located below the ejector pin 103, the first motor unit can be located below the first cylinder unit, and the first cylinder unit and the first motor unit are used together to adjust the height of the ejector pin 103; wherein, the first cylinder unit can control the movement of the ejector pin 103, and the first motor unit can control the first cylinder unit.

[0059] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the plurality of ejector pins 103 are arranged in an array along a first direction and a second direction, wherein the first direction intersects with the second direction and are both perpendicular to the thickness direction of the first base 102 .

[0060] Here, the first direction intersects with the second direction. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other as an example for illustrative description, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The first direction can be Figure 1 and Figure 2 The X-axis direction in the second direction can be Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the Y-axis direction, the thickness direction of the first base 102 can be Figure 1 and Figure 2 The Z-axis direction.

[0061] It should be noted that the plurality of ejector pins in the embodiment of the present disclosure are not limited to being arranged in an array along the first direction and the second direction as described in the above embodiment.

[0062] In some embodiments, the distance between adjacent ejector pins 103 among a plurality of ejector pins 103 located in a middle area at the top of the first base 102 is a first distance, and the distance between adjacent ejector pins 103 among a plurality of ejector pins 103 located in an edge area at the top of the first base 102 is a second distance, and the first distance is smaller than the second distance.

[0063] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the distance between adjacent ejector pins 103 among the multiple ejector pins 103 located in the middle area of ​​the top of the first base 102 is smaller than the distance between adjacent ejector pins 103 among the multiple ejector pins 103 located in the edge area of ​​the top of the first base 102. That is to say, the ejector pins 103 located in the middle area of ​​the top of the first base 102 are more densely distributed than the ejector pins 103 located in the edge area of ​​the top of the first base 102. This can ensure that the chip is subjected to more uniform force when it is lifted, thereby improving the problem of chip breakage caused by uneven force when it is lifted, and can prevent the ejector pins 103 from hitting the edge of the chip, thereby avoiding damage to the edge of the chip.

[0064] In some embodiments, the distance between adjacent ejector pins 103 ranges from 1 mm to 3 mm.

[0065] In the disclosed embodiment, the distance between adjacent ejector pins 103 is set to be relatively small, which is beneficial to the adaptability to chips of different sizes.

[0066] It should be noted that the range of the distance between adjacent ejector pins 103 given in the above embodiment is only an example and is not intended to limit the range of the distance between adjacent ejector pins 103 in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0067] In some embodiments, Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 The semiconductor device further includes: a nozzle component 104; the nozzle component 104 includes a second base 106 and a plurality of first annular structures 105 with a common geometric center located at the bottom of the second base 106; a plurality of first holes 112 with a vacuum adsorption function are arranged in the first annular structure 105, and each of the first annular structures 105 can be individually controlled to rise and fall.

[0068] In the disclosed embodiment, the nozzle component 104 includes a second base 106 and a plurality of first annular structures 105 having a common geometric center. The first annular structure 105 is provided with a plurality of first holes 112 having a vacuum adsorption function, and each first annular structure 105 can be individually controlled to extend and contract, so that the nozzle structure can be used to adsorb chips of different sizes, achieving compatibility with chips of different sizes, thereby further improving the efficiency of semiconductor equipment or bonding, and further improving the hourly chip output rate and normal operating rhythm of semiconductor equipment.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the distance between each first ring structure 105 and the geometric center is different. The distance between adjacent first ring structures 105 in the plurality of first ring structures 105 can be set accordingly according to the size of the chip to be adsorbed.

[0070] Figure 4 The shape of the first annular structure 105 given in the specification is circular, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The shape of the first annular structure 105 in the present disclosure may also be rectangular, square or other shapes.

[0071] The disclosed embodiment will be exemplified by taking the first annular structure 105 as a circle. When the first annular structure 105 is a circle, the geometric center of the first annular structure 105 is the center of the circle, multiple first annular structures 105 share the same center of the circle, and the diameter of each first annular structure 105 in the multiple first annular structures 105 is different. Each first annular structure 105 can be individually controlled to rise and fall. According to the size of the chip that currently needs to be adsorbed, the corresponding first annular structure 105 can be selected to be raised to adsorb the chip that currently needs to be adsorbed, while other first annular structures 105 may not be raised, and the raised first annular structure 105 removes the chip by vacuum adsorption.

[0072] like Figures 5 to 10 As shown, when selecting which part of the first annular structures 105 to lift out, the long side of the chip 110 currently required to be adsorbed can be used as a basis for judgment, ensuring that the chip 110 currently required to be adsorbed can be successfully adsorbed and will not slip.

[0073] Here Figure 6 as well as Figure 7 for Figure 5 A top view of the structure. Fig. 9 and Fig.10 for Figure 8 A top view of the structure. Figure 5 It can be seen that part of the first annular structure 105 is not raised; Figure 8 It can be seen that all the first annular structures 105 are lifted up.

[0074] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a plurality of first holes 112 are provided in the first annular structure 105, and the first holes 112 can be used to adsorb the chip. The plurality of first holes 112 can be evenly arranged in the first annular structure 105, so that the force on the chip is more uniform.

[0075] During the bonding process or in the chip sorting process, after the chip is lifted up by the ejector pin component 101, the chip can be taken away by the nozzle component 104. The nozzle component 104 realizes an automatic control function. After the chip is taken away, vacuum release can be used to place the chip in a specified position.

[0076] In some embodiments, the nozzle component 104 further includes a plurality of second motor units; the second motor units are located in the second base 106, and each of the first annular structures 105 is connected to one of the second motor units.

The second annular structure 108 is provided with a plurality of second holes 113 having a vacuum adsorption function. Each second annular structure 108 can be individually controlled to rise and fall, so that the bonding head component 107 can be used to adsorb chips of different sizes to achieve compatibility with chips of different sizes, thereby further improving the efficiency of semiconductor equipment or bonding, and further improving the hourly chip output rate and normal operating rhythm of semiconductor equipment.

[0082] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the distance between each second ring structure 108 and the geometric center is different. The distance between adjacent second ring structures 108 in the plurality of second ring structures 108 can be set accordingly according to the size of the chip to be bonded.

[0083] The shape of the second annular structure 108 in the present disclosure includes but is not limited to circle, rectangle, and square.

[0084] The disclosed embodiment will be exemplified by taking the second annular structure 108 as a circle.

[0085] When selecting which part of the second annular structures 108 to lift out, the long side of the chip currently to be bonded can be used as a basis for judgment, ensuring that the chip currently to be bonded can be successfully adsorbed and will not slip.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a plurality of second holes 113 are provided in the second annular structure 108, and the second holes 113 can be used to adsorb the chip. The plurality of second holes 113 can be evenly arranged in the second annular structure 108, so that the force on the chip is more uniform.

[0087] In some embodiments, the bonding head component 107 further includes a third motor unit; the third motor unit is located in the third base 109, and each of the second annular structures 108 is connected to one of the third motor units.
