[0002] Flip-chip packaging is one of the main packaging forms for large-scale semiconductor devices and an important means of achieving high-density integrated packaging of semiconductors. Due to the high power density of these devices, a metal heat sink is often mounted on top, which is in contact with the back of the chip through thermally conductive adhesive for heat dissipation. Typical flip-chip devices use a ceramic substrate or organic substrate as the carrier, and the chip is mounted using a flip-chip bonding method. The metal heat sink is bonded to the top with thermally conductive adhesive, and the heat sink material is generally copper or aluminum-based silicon carbide. In the process of conducting destructive physical analysis, structural analysis, and failure analysis of components, it is necessary to remove the metal heat sink on the top of the device to expose the chip for inspection.
