[0043] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 , which is a flow chart of a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device according to some embodiments of the present application. The method for manufacturing a semiconductor device comprises the following steps:

[0045] Step S101: A wafer to be thinned is fixed to a hard carrier using a temporary bonding layer, wherein the wafer to be thinned includes a first surface and a second surface facing each other, the first surface facing the hard carrier, and the hard carrier includes a hard supporting surface facing the wafer to be thinned, the first surface being provided with a first concave-convex structure, and the hard supporting surface being provided with a second concave-convex structure engaging with the first concave-convex structure; and

[0046] Step S102: performing a thinning process on the second surface of the wafer to be thinned to obtain a thinned wafer.

[0047] In the semiconductor device manufacturing methods of some embodiments of the present application, during the thinning process, a rigid carrier provides rigid support for the wafer to be thinned, and in conjunction with a temporary bonding layer, secures and cushions the wafer. This reduces the thickness differences between different regions of the thinned wafer, meeting the requirements of high-density packaging processes and reducing the risk of wafer breakage, thereby improving the yield rate of semiconductor device manufacturing. Furthermore, during the thinning process, the second concave-convex structure on the rigid carrier supports the first concave-convex structure of the wafer, further reducing the risk of wafer breakage and further improving the yield rate of semiconductor device manufacturing.

[0048] However, in the related art, the wafer to be thinned needs to be fixed on a back grinding tape (BG Tape) before being thinned. The thickness fluctuation of the grinding tape will cause the thickness of the thinned wafer to vary greatly in different areas. For example, the thickness difference is maintained in the range of ±5um to ±10um, resulting in the stacked chips prepared from the thinned wafer being difficult to meet the requirements of high-density packaging.

[0049] It should be noted that, in this application, "a first surface provided with a first concavo-convex structure" means that the first surface of the wafer to be thinned is provided with opposing raised and recessed structures, and the raised and recessed structures are not coplanar. Similarly, "a hard supporting surface provided with a second concavo-convex structure" means that the hard supporting surface is provided with opposing raised and recessed structures that are not coplanar.

[0050] The manufacturing process of the semiconductor device described above is described in detail below in conjunction with some specific embodiments. Where compatible, some of the embodiments below may be arbitrarily combined.

[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, step S101 is executed. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a structure in which a temporary bonding layer is used to fix a wafer to be thinned on a hard carrier in some embodiments provided in this application. Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the structure of fixing the wafer to be thinned on a hard carrier using a temporary bonding layer according to some other embodiments provided in the present application.

[0052] In some embodiments, the thickness of the wafer 12 to be thinned can be greater than or equal to 900 microns. Since the thickness of the wafer 12 to be thinned is relatively large, it is necessary to thin the wafer 12 to facilitate stacking of multiple wafers. Using stacked wafers, a semiconductor device including multiple stacked chips can be manufactured.

[0053] In some embodiments, the wafer to be thinned 12 may include one or more bonded wafers. In the case where the wafer to be thinned 12 is one wafer, the wafer to be thinned 12 may include a memory wafer, a logic wafer, or a wafer of an integrated logic circuit and a memory array. In a specific embodiment, the wafer to be thinned 12 may include a memory wafer. In the case where the wafer to be thinned 12 includes multiple bonded wafers, the multiple bonded wafers may include multiple wafers of the same type, or may include multiple wafers of different types. For example, the multiple bonded wafers may include multiple bonded memory wafers, or may include bonded memory wafers and logic wafers. In a specific embodiment, the wafer to be thinned 12 may include bonded logic wafers and memory wafers.

[0054] The second surface 12b of the wafer 12 to be thinned may be a surface of the semiconductor substrate of the wafer 12 to be thinned where no wafer circuitry is provided. This allows the thickness of the wafer 12 to be thinned to be reduced while reducing the impact of the thinning process on the thinned wafer. In some embodiments, the first surface 12a of the wafer 12 to be thinned may be provided with wafer circuitry. In other embodiments, the first surface 12a of the wafer 12 to be thinned may also be a surface of the semiconductor substrate where no wafer circuitry is provided.

[0055] The rigid carrier 13 possesses significant rigidity, resulting in minimal or no deformation under grinding pressure and unaffected by wafer warpage. The rigid support surface 13a of the rigid carrier 13 can be highly precise. This high-precision rigid carrier 13 provides stable, rigid support for the wafer 12 to be thinned, minimizing variations in thickness across different regions of the thinned wafer. Furthermore, the rigid carrier 13 is reusable.

[0056] In some embodiments, the hard carrier 13 includes at least one of a metal material, a glass, a ceramic material, and a composite material. In this way, the hard carrier 13 can be processed from a hard material, and the hard carrier 13 can have a higher dimensional accuracy, which can improve the effect of the processing error of the thick adhesive layer and the base layer of the grinding tape in the related art on the thickness difference of the thinned wafer. In a specific embodiment, the hard carrier 13 includes a metal material to reduce the risk of static electricity generated during the thinning process and affecting the thinned wafer. In another specific embodiment, the hard carrier 13 may include quartz glass, so that the hard carrier 13 has rigidity while also being light-transmissive, so as to facilitate the formation of a temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 by light irradiation.

[0057] The temporary bonding layer 11 is viscous and can secure the wafer 12 to be thinned to the rigid carrier 13, thereby positioning the wafer 12. The flexibility of the temporary bonding layer 11 allows it to act as a buffer between the rigid support surface 13a of the rigid carrier 13 and the wafer 12 to be thinned. It also acts as a buffer against the polishing pressure applied to the wafer 12 to be thinned, reducing the risk of damage to the wafer 12 from the rigid carrier 13 and the polishing pressure.

[0058] The hard carrier 13 and the temporary bonding layer 11 work together to fix the wafer 12 to be thinned. This can improve the problem of damage caused by direct contact between the circuit surface of the wafer and the vacuum suction cup of the thinning machine, while also reducing the thickness difference of the thinned wafer. For example, the total thickness difference of the thinned wafer can be optimized to ±3 microns or less, which can also reduce the risk of breakage of the thinned wafer and improve the yield rate of manufacturing semiconductor devices.

[0059] In some embodiments, the thickness of the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 is greater than or equal to 1 micron and less than or equal to 10 microns. In this way, the thickness of the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 can ensure that it performs good bonding, cushioning, and protection functions while reducing the risk of the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 being too thick, resulting in large thickness differences in the thinned wafer. Optionally, the thickness of the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 is greater than or equal to 1 micron and less than or equal to 8 microns. Optionally, the thickness of the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 is greater than or equal to 2 microns and less than or equal to 6 microns.

[0060] In some embodiments, the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 may include at least one of a thermoplastic material, a thermosetting material, and a light-curable material. For example, the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 may be made of a natural resin, a synthetic resin, liquid wax, or glue. In a specific embodiment, the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 may include a light-cured material.

[0061] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 As shown, the first concave-convex structure 121 may include an annular groove 122 provided along the edge of the wafer to be thinned 12, and the annular groove 122 is sunken in the direction away from the hard supporting surface 13a. Correspondingly, the second concave-convex structure 131 includes an annular protrusion 132 engaged with the annular groove 122, and the annular protrusion 132 protrudes in the direction close to the first surface 12a. In this way, the annular protrusion 132 of the hard carrier 13 plays a hard supporting role for the surface of the wafer to be thinned 12 that defines the annular groove 122, and the thinner temporary bonding layer 11 is also located between the annular protrusion 132 and the annular groove 122, thereby reducing the risk of cracking at the edge of the wafer to be thinned 12 during the thinning process and reducing the difference in thickness between the edge of the thinned wafer and the thickness of other areas.

[0062] In some embodiments, when two wafers of different sizes are bonded, for example, a logic wafer and a memory wafer of different sizes are bonded, a step is formed at the edge of the bonded structure, and an annular groove 122 is formed at the step. The annular groove 122 may be in the shape of a ring.

[0063] It should be noted that in the related art, when using abrasive tape to secure the wafer to be thinned, the thickness of the adhesive layer at the edge of the abrasive tape is generally greater than the thickness of the adhesive layer in other areas. The thicker adhesive layer at the edge provides support and protection for the grooves at the edge of the wafer to be thinned 12. However, variations in the thickness of the thicker adhesive layer at the edge of the abrasive tape can result in significant variations in the thickness of the resulting thinned wafer.

[0064] In other embodiments, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the first concave-convex structure 121 may include a groove 123 located in the cutting path area, and the groove 123 is sunken in the direction away from the hard bearing surface 13a. Correspondingly, the second concave-convex structure 131 includes an opposing protrusion 133 that engages with the groove 123, and the opposing protrusion 133 protrudes in the direction close to the first surface 12a. In this way, the opposing protrusion 133 of the hard carrier 13 plays a role of hard support for the surface of the wafer to be thinned 12 that defines the groove 123, and the thinner temporary bonding layer 11 is located between the opposing protrusion 133 and the groove 123, reducing the risk of the wafer to be thinned 12 being broken due to uneven stress during the thinning process, and reducing the difference in thickness between the area corresponding to the groove 123 and the thickness of other areas of the final thinned wafer.

[0065] In some embodiments, a groove 123 has different depths in at least two regions. Accordingly, the heights of the opposing protrusions 133 engaging with the groove 123 also differ in at least two corresponding regions. The depth and height are the dimensions of the groove 123 and the opposing protrusion 133, respectively, in the direction from the rigid carrier toward the wafer 12 to be thinned.

[0066] It should be noted that a test pad (not shown) is provided in the cutting path area of ​​the wafer to be thinned, and the groove 123 is formed by removing the insulating layer on the test pad. The groove 123 exposes the test pad so that a test voltage can be applied to the test pad. Moreover, after the thinned wafer is obtained, it can be cut along the cutting path area to obtain a plurality of chips. In order to perform the cutting process in the cutting path area, part of the insulating layer in the cutting path area is thinner than the thickness of the same insulating layer in the chip area 12c. Therefore, the insulating layer removed from the test pad and the insulating layer with a thinner thickness cause the cutting path area to be recessed relative to the chip area 12c, thereby forming a groove 123, and the recessed depth of a groove 123 in at least two areas may be different.

[0067] In a specific embodiment, the groove 123 may include a plurality of first grooves extending along a first direction and a plurality of second grooves extending along a second direction, wherein the first direction intersects with the second direction. The plurality of first grooves intersect with the plurality of second grooves, respectively, and two adjacent first grooves and two adjacent second grooves define the chip area 12c. The opposing protrusions 133 may include a plurality of first opposing protrusions extending along the first direction and a plurality of second opposing protrusions extending along the second direction. The plurality of first opposing protrusions intersect with the plurality of second opposing protrusions. The first opposing protrusions and the first grooves intersect with each other, and a temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 is provided between the two. The second opposing protrusions and the second grooves intersect with each other, and a temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 is provided between the two.

[0068] In other embodiments, continue to refer to Figure 3 As shown, the first concave-convex structure 121 includes multiple chip concave-convex structures 124 located in multiple chip regions 12c of the wafer to be thinned 12. Correspondingly, the second concave-convex structure 131 also includes multiple opposing concave-convex structures 134 that respectively engage with the multiple chip concave-convex structures 124. In this way, the opposing concave-convex structures 134 on the hard carrier 13 can provide rigid support for the uneven surface of the chip region 12c formed by the circuit, and the thin temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 is located between the opposing concave-convex structures 134 and the chip concave-convex structures 124, which can reduce the risk of damage to the chip concave-convex structures 124 due to uneven stress.

[0069] In some embodiments, step S101 may include: forming an initial colloid layer on a hard supporting surface 13a; attaching the first surface 12a of the wafer 12 to be thinned to the initial colloid layer; and heating the initial colloid layer to form a temporary bonding adhesive layer 11. Thus, compared to the adhesive application and removal processes, which can generate static electricity and affect the performance of devices on the wafer 12 to be thinned, some embodiments of the present application form the initial colloid layer by coating, etc., and then heat the initial colloid layer to form the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11, thereby reducing the risk of the formation of the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 adversely affecting the wafer 12 to be thinned.

[0070] In some embodiments, the heating temperature for the initial colloidal layer is less than or equal to 350° C. This reduces the risk of the heating process affecting the performance of the thinned wafer 12. Optionally, the heating temperature for the initial colloidal layer is greater than or equal to 60° C. This ensures that the initial colloidal layer disposed between the first concave-convex structure 121 and the second concave-convex structure 131 is sufficiently heated, thereby reducing the difference between the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 between the first concave-convex structure 121 and the second concave-convex structure 131 and the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 in other areas.

[0071] In some embodiments, before step S101, the method for manufacturing a semiconductor device further includes step S100. Step S100 includes securing the rigid carrier 13 to the carrier 14 using vacuum suction. Thus, by securing the rigid carrier 13 to the carrier 14 using vacuum suction, and securing the wafer 12 to be thinned to the rigid carrier 13 using the temporary bonding layer 11, the risk of movement of the wafer 12 to be thinned during the thinning process is reduced, as well as the risk of damage to the wafer 12 due to direct contact between the wafer 12 and the carrier 14.

[0072] Next, please refer to Figure 4 As shown, execute the above step S102. Figure 4 This is a structural diagram of thinning the second surface of the wafer to be thinned.

[0073] In some embodiments, step S102 may include: processing the second surface 12b of the wafer 12 to be thinned using a grinding process until the thickness of the resulting thinned wafer 15 is less than or equal to 50 microns. In this way, the thickness of the thinned wafer 15 is relatively thin, and multiple thinned wafers 15 are stacked to obtain a stacked wafer, and the stacked wafer is cut to obtain a stacked chip. From a functional perspective, a stacked chip can be more diverse than a single chip. In the case where the stacked chip includes multiple memory chips, the storage capacity of the stacked chip can be larger.

[0074] Finally, after step S102 , the method for manufacturing the semiconductor device further includes: separating the thinned wafer 15 and the temporary bonding adhesive layer 11 to obtain a thinned wafer 15 .

[0075] In some embodiments, heating can be used to achieve separation between the thinned wafer 15 and the temporary bonding layer 11, reducing the risk of damage to the thinned wafer 15 during the separation process. In other embodiments, laser irradiation can be used to achieve separation between the thinned wafer 15 and the temporary bonding layer 11, so as to achieve separation quickly and efficiently. In other embodiments, multiple separation processes can also be used to achieve separation between the thinned wafer 15 and the temporary bonding layer 11 to optimize the separation process. For example, the temperatures of the multiple heatings are different, or the energies of the multiple laser irradiations are different, or heating and laser irradiation are combined.

[0076] In some embodiments, after the thinned wafer 15 is obtained, a dicing process may be performed along the scribe line region of the thinned wafer 15 to obtain a plurality of semiconductor devices 100 .

[0077] This application also provides a hard carrier 13, which can be found in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , and refer to the above-mentioned related content, which will not be repeated here.

The controller 300 is connected to the memory 200 and is used to control the memory 200. The memory 200 includes the semiconductor device 100 according to any of the above embodiments.
