Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and in particular to a semiconductor temperature measuring device and its manufacturing method. Background Technology

[0002] Temperature is a crucial process parameter in integrated circuit manufacturing. Especially as chip dimensions continue to shrink, the temperature uniformity of the wafer surface has an increasingly significant impact on process parameters such as etching rate and thin film deposition quality. Therefore, temperature measurement and control of the wafer surface are extremely important, necessitating real-time measurement of wafer temperature changes during processing using semiconductor temperature sensing devices (e.g., wafer temperature sensing devices). However, traditional wired semiconductor temperature sensing devices require connection to external circuitry, are limited in application range due to wiring length constraints, can introduce contamination, and are difficult to integrate with different process chambers. Wireless temperature sensing technology has emerged to address this issue. However, semiconductor temperature sensing devices used for wireless temperature sensing are subject to interference from complex electromagnetic environments such as high-voltage DC and multi-frequency radio waves within process chambers (e.g., etching process chambers), significantly impacting the accuracy of temperature measurements.

[0003] In view of this, it is urgent to improve semiconductor temperature measurement devices to enhance their anti-interference performance and achieve real-time and accurate monitoring of wafer temperature, thereby optimizing process parameters and improving product yield.

[0037] In the above figures (which are not necessarily drawn to scale), similar reference numerals may describe similar parts in different views. Similar reference numerals with different letter suffixes may indicate different examples of similar parts. The figures illustrate, by way of example and not limitation, the various embodiments discussed herein. Detailed Implementation

[0038] Exemplary embodiments disclosed herein will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] It should be understood that when a component or layer is referred to as being "on," "adjacent to," "connected to," or "coupled to" other components or layers, it may be directly on, adjacent to, connected to, or coupled to other components or layers, or there may be intervening components or layers. Conversely, when a component is referred to as being "directly on," "directly adjacent to," "directly connected to," or "directly coupled to" other components or layers, there are no intervening components or layers.

[0040] It should be understood that references to "some embodiments" or "an embodiment" throughout the specification mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic relating to an embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of this disclosure. Furthermore, these particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0041] In some etching, vapor deposition, or epitaxial wafer systems, wafers are transported into the process cavity and fixed on a wafer carrier tray, which can be held by electrostatic adsorption, vacuum adsorption, or mechanical grippers. Within the process cavity, the wafer undergoes etching, deposition, and other processes. Temperature control components on the wafer carrier tray can heat or cool the wafer to provide and maintain the process temperature, improving process yield. In some embodiments, factors such as defects in the temperature control performance of the wafer carrier tray, deviations in the adjustment or setting of the temperature control components, or misalignment of the wafer on the wafer carrier tray may lead to uneven temperature distribution on the wafer, resulting in reduced process yield. For example, this may cause uneven etching rates or uneven deposition rates in different areas of the wafer. Detecting or measuring the temperature in different areas of the wafer allows for adjustments to the temperature control components or the wafer position to ensure that the temperature in each area of ​​the wafer meets the process control standards.

[0042] In some embodiments, to accurately simulate and measure the temperature distribution in different regions of a wafer, this disclosure provides a semiconductor temperature measuring device, the shape and size of which are the same as the product wafer, or a temperature measuring component including but not limited to temperature measuring devices, set on the wafer. This semiconductor temperature measuring device can also be called a temperature measuring wafer. The semiconductor temperature measuring device or temperature measuring wafer is transferred to a wafer carrier disk in the process cavity and adsorbed, the process is started, and the test signals of the temperature measuring devices distributed in different positions of the semiconductor temperature measuring device are obtained. This can simulate the temperature distribution of the product wafer in the relevant process, thereby realizing in-situ temperature testing of different regions of the product wafer in the process.

[0043] In some embodiments, the test signal for the semiconductor temperature measuring device or the temperature-measuring wafer can be transmitted via wired or wireless transmission. For example, the test signal characterizing the temperature value can be transmitted to an external host or processing unit for data processing via a transmission line; or a wireless transmission module, such as a Bluetooth module or a Wi-Fi module, can transmit the signal through an antenna and have it received by an external host for data processing. In some embodiments, the semiconductor temperature measuring device may be equipped with a memory device, such as a non-volatile memory device including a flash memory card, SSD, or hard disk, to store test data. After the test is completed, the semiconductor temperature measuring device is removed from the process chamber, and the memory device is read to retrieve the test data.

[0044] In some embodiments, taking process equipment with a plasma environment as an example, such as a plasma etching machine or a plasma chemical vapor deposition (PCVD) machine, process gases form plasma within the process chamber to etch or deposit onto the product wafer. These process chambers are equipped with plasma generators or plasma deflectors, and have power supply devices such as high-voltage DC and multi-frequency radio frequency, which can cause significant interference to semiconductor temperature measuring devices. For example, high-voltage DC and multi-frequency radio frequency can cause spike currents in the semiconductor temperature measuring device, or plasma or charges accumulated on the surface of the semiconductor temperature measuring device can generate current, causing electrical interference to the temperature measuring components within the semiconductor temperature measuring device, or even breakdown of some devices, or generating interference noise that reduces signal transmission stability.

[0045] As mentioned above, the uniformity of wafer surface temperature has become a key factor affecting process parameters (e.g., etching accuracy and thin film deposition quality), making real-time temperature measurement increasingly urgent. Although wireless technology overcomes spatial limitations, signal interference in complex electromagnetic environments such as etching chambers leads to a significant increase in temperature measurement errors, becoming a technical bottleneck restricting the accuracy of process control.

[0046] In view of this, the present invention discloses a shielding structure covering part of the temperature measuring component is provided between the first wafer and the second wafer in the semiconductor temperature measuring device, and further provides an antenna between the second wafer and the temperature measuring component and couples the antenna to the part of the temperature measuring component not covered by the shielding structure. While providing effective electromagnetic shielding for the temperature measuring component to reduce interference, it also enables independent control of the antenna to ensure that the antenna's performance is not affected by the shielding structure.

[0047] It should be noted that, here and below, the first direction is parallel to the thickness direction of the wafer, and the second and third directions are both parallel to the plane on which the wafer lies. The second and third directions are both perpendicular to the first direction, and the second and third directions intersect each other. In some specific embodiments, the second direction is perpendicular to the third direction. For example, the first direction may be the extension direction of the Z-axis shown in the figures, the second direction may be the extension direction of the X-axis shown in the figures, and the third direction may be the extension direction of the Y-axis shown in the figures; these will not be elaborated further below.

[0048] Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of a semiconductor temperature measuring device provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 and Figure 3 To and Figure 1 A top view of the corresponding semiconductor temperature measuring device, as shown below. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the semiconductor temperature measuring device 100 includes: a first wafer 102 and a second wafer 104 stacked along a first direction; a temperature measuring component 103 located between the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104; the temperature measuring component 103 includes an interconnect circuit 126, a temperature measuring device 114 coupled through the interconnect circuit 126, a power supply 116, and a main controller 120; a shielding structure 108 located between the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 and covering a portion of the temperature measuring component 103; and an antenna 124 located between the second wafer 104 and the temperature measuring component 103 and coupled to a portion of the temperature measuring component 103 not covered by the shielding structure 108.

[0049] It should be noted that, Figure 3 exist Figure 2 A shielding structure 108 was set up on the basis of this, and... Figure 3 The diagram uses perspective to illustrate the shielding structure and demonstrate the positional relationships between the various components. Additionally, it should be noted that... Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The document illustrates different structural examples of interconnect circuits. In practical applications, the specific structure of the interconnect circuit can be set according to requirements to achieve coupling between various structures in a semiconductor temperature measuring device.

[0050] In this embodiment, on the one hand, the shielding structure provides effective electromagnetic shielding for a portion of the temperature measuring component, improving the anti-interference performance and temperature measurement accuracy of the semiconductor temperature measuring device. On the other hand, by configuring the antenna to be coupled to the portion of the temperature measuring component not covered by the shielding structure, the antenna can be independently controlled to ensure that its performance is not affected by the shielding structure. The semiconductor temperature measuring device of this embodiment can block radio frequency interference through the shielding structure when performing temperature measurement in a radio frequency environment, and can independently control the antenna's switching on and off when microwave communication signals need to be transmitted to the outside world.

[0051] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, both the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 have a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other along a first direction. The first sublayer 1081 of the shielding structure 108 can extend and lie flat on the first surface of the first wafer, at least covering a portion of the first surface; the second sublayer 1082 of the shielding structure 108 can extend and lie flat on the second surface of the second wafer, at least covering a portion of the second surface. The materials of the first sublayer 1081 and the second sublayer 1082 of the shielding structure 108 can be the same or different; the constituent materials of the first sublayer 1081 and the second sublayer 1082 of the shielding structure 108 can include conductive materials with high magnetic permeability, and can be a single-layer or multi-layer structure, including but not limited to: conductive materials such as silver, copper, aluminum, tungsten, gold, silver, platinum, nickel, titanium, tin, etc., or easily curable materials including the above-mentioned conductive metal materials, such as organosilicon, polymers, etc., which include conductive metal materials. Taking the first sublayer 1081 of the shielding structure 108 as an example, the first sublayer 1081 of the shielding structure 108 can be a metal material layer formed by processes such as physical and chemical deposition, sputtering, and electroplating.

[0052] It should be noted that, Figure 4 To illustrate the positional relationships between the first wafer 102, the second wafer 104, the shielding structure 108, the antenna 124, and the main control and power supply components in the temperature measurement assembly, details are omitted. Figure 3 Other structures in the circuit (e.g., interconnect circuit 126).

[0053] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the portion of the interconnection circuit between the antenna 124 and the temperature sensing assembly not covered by the shielding structure 108 ( Figure 4 In the case of coupling (not shown), the antenna 124 is located between the outer edge of the temperature measuring component and the plurality of conductive posts 122.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first sublayer 1081 of the shielding structure 108 can be formed by curing a conductive paste. The conductive paste may include metal microspheres, metal powder, or other conductive materials with microstructures and an easily curable substrate; it may include, but is not limited to, powders such as gold, silver, copper, and aluminum, and may also include non-metallic microstructure materials such as graphite powder or carbon nanotubes; for example, the conductive paste may be a conductive gold paste, a conductive silver paste, or a conductive copper paste. By selecting the particle size and solid content of the conductive silver paste, a high-density first sublayer 1081 with good conductivity can be formed.

[0055] In some embodiments, a conductive paste is uniformly coated on the first surface of the first wafer 102. The conductive material (such as metal powder) in the conductive paste has a particle size of less than 0.3 micrometers and a solid content of more than 80%, which enables the first sublayer 1081 to form a shielding structure that shields against external electromagnetic noise interference with a thickness of micrometers.

[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the interconnect circuit 126 is located between the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104. The interconnect circuit 126 may include a single layer or multiple layers of wiring layers. The wiring layers may include multiple interconnect lines. The interconnect lines of adjacent wiring layers may extend in the same direction, intersect, or be perpendicular. The interconnect circuit 126 may include a strip interconnect circuit 126 (e.g., the first interconnect circuit 1261) and a ring interconnect circuit 1262. The interconnect circuit 126 may be carried on a printed circuit board (PCB) or a flexible printed circuit (FPC).

[0057] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the semiconductor temperature measuring device may include a first wafer 102, a temperature measuring component 103, and a second wafer 104 sequentially arranged in a first direction (z-direction). The first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 serve as carriers or cover plates for the temperature measuring component, providing protection and simulating the temperature distribution of the product wafer. The first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 are aligned or substantially aligned in the first direction. The temperature measuring component is adapted to the shape of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 and is located between them. The temperature measuring component 103 includes multiple temperature measuring devices 114 distributed in different areas of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 to obtain temperature values ​​in different areas. The temperature measuring devices 114 may include various temperature sensors, which collect temperature signals and convert them into electrical signals for output. The first wafer 102 can serve as the bottom wafer of the semiconductor temperature measuring device, and is used to contact wafer fixing devices such as wafer carrier trays. The temperature measuring component is supported on the first wafer 102, and the second wafer 104 serves as a cover layer to protect the temperature measuring component.

[0058] In some embodiments, the positions of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 can be interchanged.

[0059] here, Figure 1 To illustrate the overall positional relationship of the first wafer 102, the second wafer 104, and the temperature sensing component 103, as well as the specific type of interconnection circuit, other structures (such as the main controller and power supply) are omitted.

[0060] Reference Figure 2 The temperature sensing component is shown in the XOY plane layout diagram. The temperature sensing component may include at least: a temperature sensing device 114, a power supply 116, a main controller 120, and an interconnecting circuit 126 (e.g., a first interconnecting circuit 1261) that couples the various parts. The interconnecting circuit 126 may be disposed on a circuit board or a flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board facilitates the flexible layout of leads and devices and is adaptable to various installation spaces.

[0061] This disclosure does not limit the number of layers or wiring on the circuit board, but it may include at least a power supply circuit and a data transmission circuit. The temperature sensing component 103 may include multiple strip-shaped or arc-shaped interconnecting circuits 126 to achieve coupling between different devices, power supply in series or parallel, and communication interconnection in serial or parallel modes. Alternatively, the temperature sensing component 103 may be mounted on a circular PCB board and interconnected through the interconnecting circuits 126 on the PCB board.

[0062] The first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 can be stacked and fixed using bonding adhesive, hot-temperature adhesive, resin, or other adhesive media, or they can be stacked using thermo-press bonding. During testing, the internal temperature of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 is measured by the temperature measuring device 114. The obtained temperature data is uploaded by the main controller to an external host or the cloud, or stored in the memory device in the temperature measuring component. The power supply can be a battery or a wired power supply connected to an external power source, which powers the main controller and the temperature measuring device.

[0063] The main controller of the semiconductor temperature measuring device can be connected to an external host via a data cable for wired transmission, or the semiconductor temperature measuring device has a wireless transmission module that can be coupled to an antenna to transmit wireless signals to send test data to an external host or cloud server. The power source in a semiconductor temperature measuring device using wireless transmission can be an energy storage device such as a battery; there are no restrictions on the battery type, and it can be a rechargeable lithium-ion battery or other types of batteries. This eliminates some of the pollution associated with wired temperature measurement and avoids the need for through-holes in the processing chamber, reducing manufacturing difficulty and improving temperature measurement performance.

[0064] In some embodiments, the shielding structure covers the electrical components of the temperature sensing component and a portion of the interconnecting circuitry; the electrical components of the temperature sensing component include at least one of the temperature sensing device, the power supply, and the main controller.

[0065] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the shielding structure 108 covers the electrical components of the temperature sensing assembly and part of the interconnecting circuit 126; specifically, the shielding structure 108 covers the temperature sensing device 114, the main controller 120, and part of the interconnecting circuit 126 of the temperature sensing assembly.

[0066] It should be noted that, Figure 3 The shielding structure 108 shown can cover all the electrical components of the temperature measuring component, or it can cover some of the electrical components of the temperature measuring component.

[0067] The main controller 120 may include various computing units, including but not limited to: a microcontroller unit (MCU). The temperature sensing component 103 may also include an ADC acquisition chip coupled to the temperature sensing device 114, which converts the analog signal from the temperature sensing device 114 into a digital signal and transmits it to the main controller 120. Alternatively, the temperature sensing device 114 may be a digital sensor with analog-to-digital conversion capabilities, which can directly convert analog signals into digital signals and transmit them to the main controller 120.

[0068] Here, the shielding structure can also cover other structures of the temperature sensing component, such as the power supply.

[0069] In some embodiments, the electrical appliances and interconnecting circuits in the temperature sensing component are significantly affected by external electromagnetic interference, thus the shielding structure 108 is used to partially shield the electrical appliances and some interconnecting circuits in the temperature sensing component, thereby improving the anti-interference performance and temperature sensing accuracy of the semiconductor temperature sensing device. Simultaneously, the shielding structure 108 exposes at least some of the interconnecting circuits in the temperature sensing component, serving as a window for coupling with the antenna to enable independent control of the antenna.

[0070] In some embodiments, the distance between the antenna and the center of the first wafer is less than the distance between the antenna and the side of the first wafer.

[0071] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the distance between the antenna 124 and the center of the first wafer 102 is less than the distance between the antenna 124 and the side of the first wafer 102. In some embodiments, the electrical components of the temperature sensing assembly are located near the center of the first wafer 102. The closer the distance between the antenna 124 and the center of the first wafer 102, the better it is for the antenna 124 to transmit signals.

[0072] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the semiconductor temperature measuring device further includes: a radio frequency switch 110, and the antenna 124 is connected to the interconnect circuit of the temperature measuring component that is not covered by the shielding structure 108 through the radio frequency switch 110. Figure 4 (not shown in the image) Coupling.

[0073] It should be noted that, in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The intermediate antenna 124 is also coupled to the unshielded portion of the interconnect circuit in the temperature sensing assembly via the RF switch 110. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the example, since the part of the interconnect circuit coupled to the RF switch 110 in the XOY plane is blocked by the RF switch 110, the coupling relationship between the RF switch 110 and the part of the interconnect circuit is not illustrated.

[0074] In some embodiments, the radio frequency switch includes a PIN switch.

[0075] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the temperature measurement component also includes a wireless transmission module 118 coupled to the main controller. The wireless transmission module 118 may include, but is not limited to, a Bluetooth module, a Wi-Fi module, a ZigBee module, etc. The wireless transmission module 118 may be coupled to an antenna 124 to transmit wireless signals.

[0076] In some embodiments, the antenna selection must be adapted to the microwave signal transmission of Bluetooth and maintain normal operation in low-frequency, mid-frequency, and high-frequency radio frequency bands. Ceramic antennas, patch antennas, and printed circuit board antennas are all selectable antenna types.

[0077] For example, in one antenna design, an inverted F-shaped board-printed antenna is used to match the 2.45 GHz frequency of Bluetooth.

[0078] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, antenna 124 is a ring coil located at the center of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104, and may include multiple nested coils, such as, but not limited to, RF coils. Multiple temperature sensing devices 114 may also be disposed within the internal region of antenna 124. In other embodiments, antenna 124 may be located near the center of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104, including a horizontally positioned antenna 124.

[0079] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the semiconductor temperature measuring device further includes: a plurality of conductive pillars 122 located between the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104, the plurality of conductive pillars 122 being located between the outer edge of the temperature measuring component and the side edge of the first wafer 102; each of the conductive pillars 122 penetrating the shielding structure 108 along the first direction and coupled to the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104.

[0080] Here, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first sublayer 1081 and the second sublayer 1082 of the shielding structure 108 respectively cover a portion of the first surface S1 and a portion of the second surface S2 of the temperature measuring component along the first direction; the top of each of the conductive pillars 122 penetrates the second sublayer 1082 of the shielding structure 108, the bottom of each of the conductive pillars 122 penetrates the first sublayer 1081 of the shielding structure 108, and the bottom and top of each of the conductive pillars 122 are coupled to the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 respectively.

[0081] For example, the conductive pillar 122 can be formed by coating a conductive paste and then curing it. There is no limitation on the shape of the conductive pillar 122; it can be cylindrical or spherical. The cross-sectional shape of the conductive pillar in the XOY plane can be rectangular, circular, or elliptical, or an irregular arc, polygon, or other irregular shape.

[0082] In some embodiments, the first surface of the first wafer 102 is coupled to the bottom of the conductive pillar 122, and the second surface of the second wafer 104 is coupled to the top of the conductive pillar 122. Ion implantation can be performed on the landing site of the conductive pillar 122 on the first surface of the first wafer to form a first doped region coupled to the conductive pillar 122, thereby reducing the contact resistance between the first wafer 102 and the conductive pillar 122. Ion implantation can be performed on the landing site of the conductive pillar 122 on the second surface of the second wafer to form a second doped region coupled to the conductive pillar 122, thereby reducing the contact resistance between the second wafer 104 and the conductive pillar 122.

[0083] In some embodiments, the conductive post 122 is located on the side of the antenna 124 away from the center of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104.

[0084] In some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The conductive pillar 122 is located at or near the edges of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104. The conductive pillar 122 can be located as close as possible to the sides of the first wafer and the second wafer, or on the sides of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104, provided that the manufacturing process allows. Figure 2 and Figure 3As exemplified, the temperature sensing assembly may include multiple devices and interconnecting circuits 126, such as a main controller, power supply, voltage regulator, and multiple temperature sensing components disposed on the first wafer 102. The outer edge of the temperature sensing assembly is the device closest to the wafer side on the XOY plane, which may be multiple devices, or the edge of the outermost device closest to the wafer side. To facilitate temperature measurement of different areas of the wafer, multiple temperature sensing devices are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction around the center of the first wafer. Multiple rings of temperature sensing devices 114 are arranged sequentially from the inside to the outside of the first wafer radially. The outer edge of the temperature sensing assembly is the outermost ring of temperature sensing devices 114, and the conductive post 122 is located outside the outermost ring of temperature sensing devices 114, that is, the conductive post 122 is located outside all the devices in the temperature sensing assembly.

[0085] In other embodiments, other devices may be disposed on the outer edge of the temperature sensing component, such as a main controller or a voltage regulator, and are not limited to temperature sensing devices.

[0086] In this embodiment, the conductive pillar is located between the outer edge of the temperature sensing component and the side edge of the first wafer. This allows the conductive pillar to be positioned outside all components of the temperature sensing component, enabling peak currents, accumulated charges, or plasma from the first and second wafers to flow from the outside of the temperature sensing component or from the edge of the wafer without being conducted through the interior of the component. This reduces interference and damage to the various components of the temperature sensing component. Furthermore, the conductive pillar penetrating the shielding structure avoids affecting its conductivity, contributing to improved overall performance of the semiconductor temperature sensing device.

[0087] In some embodiments, a plurality of conductive pillars 122 are distributed at intervals on the inner side of the first wafer and the second wafer and along the circumferential direction of the side of the first wafer. The plurality of conductive pillars can be connected to form a circle, an ellipse or other irregular polygon or arc shape. The plurality of conductive pillars can be connected to surround the outer edge of the temperature measuring component, surround the outermost part of the temperature measuring component, or in other words, the plurality of conductive pillars can be connected to surround all the components of the temperature measuring component.

[0088] In some embodiments, the semiconductor temperature measuring device further includes a sealing layer 112, in which the temperature measuring component is wrapped and fixed in a corresponding groove by the sealing layer 112, and the first sub-layer 1081 and the second sub-layer 1082 of the shielding structure 108 are separated by the intermediate sealing layer 112.

[0089] In some embodiments, the sealing layer 112 has good electrical insulation, temperature resistance, processability, ductility, and curing temperature. Exemplarily, the sealing layer 112 can be an epoxy resin sealant, and the material of the sealing layer 112 includes, but is not limited to, bisphenol-based materials, silicone resins, or polyurethane adhesives.

[0090] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4As shown, the semiconductor temperature measuring device further includes an adhesive layer 106, which is located between the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104, for bonding and fixing the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104. The adhesive layer 106 can be a bonding adhesive, a heat-sensitive adhesive, a resin, or other adhesive medium. The adhesive layer 106 may include a curable dielectric material, such as resin.

[0091] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, the adhesive layer 106 includes a first portion 1061 located between the plurality of conductive pillars 122 and the second wafer, and a second portion 1062 surrounding the covering sealing layer 112.

[0092] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the semiconductor temperature measuring device further includes: a capacitor structure 105 located between the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104; as Figure 6 As shown, the capacitor structure 105 includes a first electrode 1051, a second electrode 1052, and a dielectric layer 1055, wherein the dielectric layer 1055 is located between the first electrode 1051 and the second electrode 1052; both the first electrode 1051 and the second electrode 1052 of the capacitor structure 105 penetrate the shielding structure 108 along the first direction and are coupled to the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104, respectively.

[0093] It should be noted that, Figure 5 To illustrate the position of the capacitor structure in the semiconductor temperature measuring device, only a portion of the structure in the semiconductor temperature measuring device is shown in the diagram.

[0094] In some embodiments, the capacitor structure 105 may include a first electrode 1051, a second electrode 1052, and a dielectric layer 1055 located between the first electrode 1051 and the second electrode 1052. The capacitor structure 105 may include, but is not limited to, a parallel plate capacitor, a columnar capacitor, or other physical structures. Figure 5 In the capacitor structure, the first electrode is coupled to the first surface of the first wafer, or to the first sublayer 1081 on the first surface; the second electrode is coupled to the second surface of the second wafer, or to the second sublayer 1082 on the second surface, with the first and second surfaces facing each other in the first direction. The first electrode 1051 of the capacitor structure 105 is provided with contact points, pins, and other connection structures to be coupled to the first wafer 102, and the second electrode 1052 of the capacitor structure 105 is provided with contact points, pins, and other connection structures to be coupled to the second wafer 104. The coupling can be a direct contact electrical connection or an electrical connection through other conductive structures.

[0095] When using a semiconductor temperature measuring device for temperature testing, if the first wafer 102 or the second wafer 104 experiences a spike current, the spike current from the first wafer 102 or the second wafer 104 charges the capacitor structure 105. The spike current is absorbed by the capacitor structure 105, reducing interference to the temperature measuring components. For example, when the first wafer 102 is in contact with the wafer carrier disk and the second wafer 104 is exposed to the process cavity, a spike current is generated or plasma accumulates on the second wafer 104 during plasma generation. The spike current flows from the second wafer 104 to the first wafer 102 and is absorbed by the capacitor structure 105, reducing interference and damage to the semiconductor temperature measuring device and the wafer carrier disk. The fact that the capacitor structure penetrates the shielding structure prevents any impact on the absorption of spike current by the capacitor structure, thus contributing to improved overall performance of the semiconductor temperature measuring device.

[0096] In some embodiments, the capacitor structure 105 may include a first electrode 1051, a second electrode 1052, and a dielectric layer 1055 that electrically isolates the two electrodes; the capacitor structure 105 may also include a multilayer electrode capacitor, such as a multilayer ceramic capacitor, wherein the dielectric layer 1055 is a ceramic dielectric material; while realizing the miniaturization of the capacitor structure 105, the carrying voltage or carrying current of the capacitor structure 105 may be increased.

[0097] In some implementations... Figure 5 The second sublayer 1082 of the middle shielding structure covers part of the interconnect circuit, and the antenna ( Figure 5 (Not shown) is coupled to a portion of the interconnect circuitry covered by the second sublayer 1082 of the unshielded structure in the temperature sensing assembly.

[0098] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 6 As shown, the capacitor structure 105 includes a plurality of alternately arranged first electrodes 1051 and second electrodes 1052; a first connection structure 1053 coupled to the plurality of first electrodes 1051; and a second connection structure 1054 coupled to the plurality of second electrodes 1052. The first connection structure 1053 is coupled to a first sublayer 1081, and the second connection structure 1054 is coupled to a second sublayer 1082. The first electrodes 1051 and second electrodes 1052 can be internal electrodes, and the first connection structure 1053 and second connection structure 1054 can serve as external electrodes for connecting to external structures.

[0099] like Figure 6 As illustrated, the first electrode 1051 and the second electrode 1052 can be rectangular, circular, or elliptical, or irregularly polygonal or arc-shaped. The first electrode 1051 and the second electrode 1052 can be, for example... Figure 6As shown, extending along the XOY plane, the first electrode and the second electrode partially overlap in the Z direction. The first electrode 1051 and the second electrode 1052 are offset from each other in the electrode extension direction, as shown in... Figure 6 The first electrode 1051 and the second electrode 1052 are misaligned in the Z direction, with the first side (left side) of the first electrode 1051 in the X direction not aligned with the first side of the second electrode 1052 in the X direction; or, in other words, the dimensions of the first electrode 1051 and the second electrode 1052 are equal or substantially equal in the X direction, with only partial overlap between the first electrode 1051 and the second electrode 1052. The first connecting structure 1053 is located on one side of the electrode extension direction of the first electrode 1051 and is coupled to a plurality of spaced-apart first electrodes 1051. The second connecting structure 1054 is located on one side of the electrode extension direction of the second electrode 1052 and is coupled to a plurality of spaced-apart second electrodes 1052. The first connecting structure 1053 and the second connecting structure 1054 are arranged opposite each other in the extension direction of the first electrode 1051 and are electrically isolated.

[0100] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 6 As shown, the first electrode 1051 has a first end and a second end disposed opposite to each other in the electrode extension direction. The first end of the first electrode 1051 is coupled to the first connecting structure 1053, and the second end is floating or not connected to electricity. The second electrode 1052 also has a first end and a second end disposed opposite to each other in the electrode extension direction. The first end of the first electrode 1051 is coupled to the second connecting structure 1054, and the second end is floating or not connected to electricity. The first end of the first electrode 1051 and the second end of the second electrode 1052 are not aligned in the perpendicular electrode direction (z-direction), and the second end of the second electrode 1052 is away from the first connecting structure 1053. The first end of the second electrode 1052 and the second end of the first electrode 1051 are not aligned in the z-direction, and the second end of the first electrode 1051 is away from the second connecting structure 1054.

[0101] The first connection structure 1053 is coupled to a first sublayer on the first wafer 102, and the second connection structure 1054 is coupled to a second sublayer on the second wafer 104, thereby achieving coupling and conduction between the capacitor structure 105 and the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104. This disclosure embodiment does not limit the connection method of the first connection structure 1053 and the second connection structure 1054; for example, the first wafer 102 can be... Figure 7 Below the capacitor structure 105, the second wafer 104 can... Figure 7Above the capacitor structure 105, the bottom of the first connection structure 1053 is in contact with the first sublayer 1081, and the top of the first connection structure 1053 is electrically isolated from the second sublayer 1082 without contact; the top of the second connection structure 1054 is in contact with the second sublayer 1082, and the bottom of the second connection structure 1054 is electrically isolated from the first sublayer 1081 without contact.

[0102] In some embodiments, a first sublayer or a second sublayer may be disposed on either the first wafer 102 or the second wafer 104, or a first sublayer and a second sublayer may be disposed on both wafers respectively. (Refer to...) Figure 7 As shown, it can be Figure 6 The capacitor structure 105 shown is rotated and positioned between the first sub-layer 1081 and the second sub-layer 1082.

[0103] like Figure 8 As exemplified, a first sublayer 1081 is formed on the surface of the first wafer 102, extending to the inner wall of the first recess 1201. A capacitor structure 105 is coupled to the first sublayer 1081 and the second wafer 104. In other examples, referring to the arrangement of the first sublayer 1081 in the first recess 1201, a second sublayer 1082 is formed on the surface of the second wafer 104, extending to the inner wall of the second recess 1202. The capacitor structure 105 is coupled to the second sublayer 1082 and the second wafer 104.

[0104] In some embodiments, it is possible to Figure 8 A second sublayer 1082 is further disposed on the surface of the second wafer 104, and the capacitor structure 105 is coupled to the first sublayer and the second sublayer. The first wafer 102, the first sublayer 1081, the first connection structure 1053, the second connection structure 1054, the second sublayer 1082, and the second wafer 104 are stacked in the Z direction. The first connection structure 1053 is in contact with the first sublayer 1081, and the second connection structure 1054 is in contact with the second sublayer 1082. This reduces the lead distance of the capacitor structure and facilitates the reduction of the thickness of the semiconductor temperature measuring device.

[0105] It should be noted that at least one of the second sublayers 1082 in the first sublayer 1081 will expose part of the interconnect circuitry of the temperature sensing component as a window coupled to the antenna to enable independent control of the antenna.

[0106] In some embodiments, at least one of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 has a groove for accommodating at least a portion of the temperature sensing component; the first sublayer extends into the inner wall of the groove; the capacitor structure is located in the corresponding groove, and the first electrode is coupled to the first sublayer on the inner wall of the groove.

[0107] In some embodiments, a groove can be formed in either the first wafer 102 or the second wafer 104, and the depth of the groove can be greater than or equal to the thickness of the corresponding temperature sensing component. The other wafer, after being thinned to serve as a capping layer, may not have a groove formed. Figure 8 As shown, a first groove 1201 is formed in the first wafer 102 to accommodate the temperature measuring component, and the second wafer 104 is thinned to serve as a cover layer to cover the temperature measuring component and the first wafer 102.

[0108] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the first wafer 102 has a first groove 1201, and the second wafer 104 has a second groove 1202. The first groove 1201 and the second groove 1202 are aligned to form a cavity, and at least a portion of the temperature measuring component is located in the cavity.

[0109] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 8 As shown, grooves are provided in both the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104, and the depth of the grooves is less than the device thickness of the temperature sensing component 103. The grooves of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 are aligned. A portion of the temperature sensing component is located in the groove of the first wafer 102, and another portion is located in the groove of the second wafer 104, thereby reducing the thickness of the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104. For example, taking a temperature sensing device as an example, the bottom of a temperature sensing device is located in the first groove 1201 of the first wafer 102, and the upper part of the temperature sensing device is located in the second groove 1202 of the second wafer 104. The first groove 1201 and the second groove 1202 are aligned in the Z direction. A portion of the interconnect circuit 126 connecting the temperature sensing device is disposed within the first recess 1201, specifically extending along the sidewall and bottom of the first recess 1201. The contacts at the bottom of the temperature sensing device are coupled to the interconnect circuit 126 at the bottom of the first recess 1201. This portion of the interconnect circuit 126 extends from the bottom of the first recess 1201 along the sidewall and is coupled to other devices within the first recess 1201, such as the main controller 120, the power supply 116, or a voltage regulator. The first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104 may have corresponding recesses to accommodate the interconnect circuit 126, or some portions of the interconnect circuit 126 may be disposed on the surface of the first wafer 102, with another portion located within the first recess 1201 of the first wafer 102 to couple to the corresponding devices.

[0110] In some embodiments, Figure 8The capacitor structure 105 shown can be disposed in the cavity formed by the first groove 1201 and the second groove 1202. The first connection structure 1053 of the capacitor structure 105 can be directly coupled to the first wafer 102, or a contact can be provided on the first connection structure 1053 to be coupled to the first wafer 102. The second connection structure 1054 can be directly coupled to the second wafer 104, or a contact can be provided on the second connection structure 1054 to be coupled to the second wafer 104.

[0111] Taking the first wafer 102 as an example, a first groove 1201 can be formed in the first wafer 102. A first sub-layer 1081 extends on the first surface of the first wafer 102 and extends to the sidewalls and bottom of the first groove 1201 below the first surface. A capacitor structure 105 is disposed in the first groove 1201. A first electrode 1051 or a first connection structure 1053 is coupled to the first sub-layer 1081 at the bottom of the first groove 1201. The second wafer 104 may not have a groove. A second sub-layer 1082 extends on the second surface of the second wafer 104. After the second wafer 104 is thinned, it covers the temperature sensing component. The second sub-layer 1082 is coupled to the second electrode 1052 or the second connection structure 1054.

[0112] In some embodiments, the second wafer 104 may be provided with a second groove 1202, a second sub-layer 1082 extends on a second surface of the second wafer 104 and extends on the sidewall and bottom of the second groove 1202, a capacitor structure 105 is disposed in the cavity formed by aligning the first groove 1201 and the second groove 1202, and a second electrode 1052 or a second connection structure 1054 is coupled to the second sub-layer 1082 at the bottom of the second groove 1202.

[0113] In some embodiments, the first sublayer 1081 extends into the inner wall of the first groove 1201, and the second sublayer 1082 extends into the inner wall of the second groove 1202. The temperature sensing device 114 or main control device 120 of the temperature sensing component may be located within the first groove 1201. The interconnect circuit 126 or a circuit board including the interconnect circuit 126 is located on the first sublayer 1081 within the first groove 1201. The contacts of the temperature sensing device 114 or main control device 120 are coupled to the interconnect circuit 126, and a fixed connection between the contacts or pins and the interconnect circuit 126 can be achieved through soldering. The circuit board carrying the interconnect circuit 126 may be a flexible circuit board with a strip, arc, or other irregular shape adapted to the wafer groove and lead layout; the shape of the circuit board is not limited.

[0114] In some embodiments, the capacitor structures are symmetrically distributed on the outside of the electrical appliance of the temperature measuring component; and / or, the capacitor structures are spaced apart around the circumferential direction of the electrical appliance.

[0115] In some embodiments, a capacitor structure 105 is provided between the first wafer 102 and the second wafer 104. The capacitor structure 105 may be part of the temperature sensing component or not. The capacitor structure 105 may be provided near electrical appliances such as temperature sensing devices, power supplies, main controllers, voltage regulators, and wireless transmission components. It may be arranged symmetrically or asymmetrically, or arranged around the circumferential direction of the electrical appliance, such as near the contacts or pins where the electrical appliance is connected to the interconnection circuit 126, in order to reduce the interference of peak current on the electrical appliance.

[0116] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the temperature sensing component 103 further includes: a voltage regulator 117 coupled to the interconnection circuit 126; capacitor structures 105 symmetrically distributed outside the electrical components of the temperature sensing component 103; and / or, the capacitor structures 105 are spaced apart around the circumferential direction of the electrical components; wherein, the electrical components of the temperature sensing component 103 include at least one of the following: a temperature sensing device 114, a power supply 116, a main controller 120, and a voltage regulator 117. The input terminal of the voltage regulator 117 is coupled to the power supply 116, and the output terminal of the voltage regulator 117 is coupled to the main controller 120, the temperature sensing device 114, the wireless transmission module, and other electrical components for power supply. Multiple voltage regulators 117 may be included to provide separate power supply for different branches in parallel. The voltage regulator 117 is connected to the power supply 116 and outputs a relatively stable power supply.

[0117] In some embodiments, a voltage regulator 117 supplies power to multiple temperature sensing devices 114, which can constitute a temperature sensing circuit 119 or at least a portion of a temperature sensing circuit 119; the multiple temperature sensing devices 114 can be divided into multiple temperature sensing circuits 119, and each circuit can be powered by a separate voltage regulator 117 to improve power supply stability. For example, the multiple temperature sensing devices 114 can be powered by... Figure 3 The dashed line divides the area into multiple sector-shaped regions, each equipped with a voltage regulator 117 to power multiple temperature measuring devices 114 within the sector-shaped region. Figure 3 The division of the power supply area for the temperature sensing device 114, as well as the setting and number of voltage regulators 117, are merely examples and do not limit other division methods or the number and arrangement of voltage regulators 117. For example, voltage regulators 117a, 117b, 117c, and 117d supply power to the temperature sensing devices 114 in four sector areas, respectively; voltage regulator 117e supplies power to the main controller 120. A voltage regulator, such as voltage regulator 117b, supplying power to multiple temperature sensing devices 114 can constitute a temperature sensing circuit 119 or at least a part of a temperature sensing circuit 119. Multiple temperature sensing devices 114 belonging to a temperature sensing circuit 119 can... Figure 3 The fan-shaped region distribution is shown.

[0118] Reference Figure 3As shown, the interconnect circuit 126 of the temperature sensing circuit 119 may include a plurality of first interconnect circuits 1261 spaced apart in the circumferential direction along the outer periphery of the antenna 124, the plurality of first interconnect circuits 1261 being radially spaced along the first wafer 102, and including a plurality of branches such as second interconnect circuits 1263 on the first interconnect circuits 1261, the second interconnect circuits 1263 intersecting or perpendicular to the first interconnect circuits 1261; the plurality of second interconnect circuits 1263 located on the same first interconnect circuit 1261 have different lengths, and from the center of the first wafer 102 outwards, the size of the second interconnect circuits 1263 gradually increases to meet the electrical interconnection requirements of the temperature sensing device 114 being uniformly distributed radially. The interconnect circuit 126 may include a power supply circuit and a data transmission circuit.

[0119] The electrical appliance in this embodiment can be any device other than the interconnecting circuit 126. The voltage regulator 117 can include, but is not limited to, a low dropout regulator (LDO). The input terminal of the voltage regulator 117 is coupled to the output terminal of the power supply 116, and the output terminal of the voltage regulator 117 is coupled to electrical appliances such as the main controller 120 and the temperature measuring device 114. The voltage regulator 117 can filter power supply noise, regulate voltage output, and provide a stable power supply voltage.

[0120] The arrangement and quantity of capacitor structure 105 can be set according to the interference tolerance and withstand level of the electrical appliance. Capacitor structure 105 needs to be placed near appliances with high power supply stability. Taking the main controller 120 as an example, the main controller 120 operates by default in a circuit environment with a stable voltage supply. Its input voltage window is narrow. If a surge current occurs, it may cause the entire semiconductor temperature measuring device to shut down, or even cause irreversible damage to the main controller 120. A surge current in the voltage regulator 117 may cause breakdown of the electrical appliance, resulting in irreversible damage. Figure 3 As shown, a capacitor structure 105 can be set near the pins or contacts of electrical appliances such as the main controller 120 and the voltage regulator 117.

[0121] In some embodiments, capacitor structures 105 can be symmetrically arranged near the pins or contacts of electrical appliances such as the main controller 120 and the voltage regulator 117. There can be two, three, four, or more capacitor structures 105. Multiple capacitor structures 105 can be arranged at intervals around the circumference of the electrical appliance, and can be symmetrically or asymmetrically distributed, such as four capacitor structures 105. The four capacitor structures 105 form a rectangle or other quadrilateral to enhance the absorption of peak currents and improve the anti-interference performance of the electrical appliance.

[0122] This disclosure also provides a method for manufacturing a semiconductor temperature measuring device. Figure 9This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for manufacturing a semiconductor temperature measuring device according to an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 9 As shown, the manufacturing method of the semiconductor temperature measuring device provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0123] Step S10: Provide the first wafer;

[0124] Step S20: Form a temperature sensing component on the first side of the first wafer; the temperature sensing component includes an interconnect circuit, a temperature sensing device coupled through the interconnect circuit, a power supply, and a main controller;

[0125] Step S30: Form a shielding structure, the shielding structure covering part of the temperature measuring component;

[0126] Step S40: Form an antenna, which is coupled to the portion of the temperature measuring component that is not covered by the shielding structure;

[0127] Step S50: Provide a second wafer and bond the second wafer to a first side of the first wafer; the antenna is located between the second wafer and the temperature measuring component.

[0128] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 8 The manufacturing process of a semiconductor temperature measuring device is described, and the manufacturing method of the semiconductor temperature measuring device includes:

[0129] A first wafer 102 is provided, and a plurality of first grooves 1201 are formed on a first surface of the first wafer 102;

[0130] A first sublayer 1081 is formed on the first surface of the first wafer 102, and the first sublayer 1081 extends into the sidewall and bottom of the first groove 1201;

[0131] Align the temperature measuring component with the first groove 1201, and place each component of the temperature measuring component in the corresponding first groove 1201;

[0132] A sealing layer 112 is formed on the first surface of the first wafer 102, and the sealing layer 112 can be filled into the first groove 1201;

[0133] A second wafer 104 is provided, and a plurality of second grooves 1202 are formed on the second surface of the second wafer 104 corresponding to the distribution position of the first grooves 1201 on the first wafer 102.

[0134] A second sublayer 1082 is formed on the second surface of the second wafer 104, and the second sublayer 1082 extends into the sidewall and bottom of the second groove 1202;

[0135] The second wafer 104 is aligned with the first wafer 102, and the second wafer 104 is bonded to the first wafer 102, so that the second groove 1202 is aligned with the first groove 1201. The first sublayer 1081 and the second sublayer 1082 constitute the shielding structure 108.

[0136] In some embodiments, the methods for forming the first groove 1201 and the second groove 1202 may include, but are not limited to, dry etching, wet etching, or a combination thereof. Taking the fabrication method of the first sublayer 1081 as an example, a conductive paste is uniformly coated on the surface of the first wafer 102 having the first groove 1201, and the first sublayer 1081 is formed after the conductive paste is cured. Alternatively, the first sublayer 1081 can be formed by physical or chemical deposition, sputtering, or electroplating on the surface of the first wafer 102 having the first groove 1201.

[0137] It should be noted that during the fabrication of the shielding structure, the shielding structure 108 can be formed by first forming an initial shielding structure that completely covers the temperature measuring component and then exposing some interconnecting circuits or non-electrical appliances by drilling holes. Alternatively, a mask layer can be used to cover devices that do not require shielding structure coverage (such as some interconnecting circuits, conductive pillars, capacitor structures, etc.) to directly form a shielding structure that covers part of the temperature measuring component.

[0138] It should be understood that the phrases "some embodiments," "one embodiment," or "an embodiment" throughout the specification mean that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic related to an embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of this disclosure.
