Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of chip packaging technology, and more specifically, to a method for preparing a co-packaging optical structure and the co-packaging optical structure itself. Background Technology

[0002] Existing chiplet technology can package chips with different functions together, such as photonic engine chips, memory chips, and / or processing chips, to form a heterogeneous integrated co-packaged optical structure. However, as chip input / output density increases and the number of chips integrated into a single package increases significantly, multi-chip packaging solutions typically improve their transmission performance through multi-layer wiring processes.

[0003] In conventional techniques, wiring processes typically require etching openings across the entire circuit layer before electroplating around these openings on the wafer. This electroplating process often results in poor uniformity, leading to inconsistent wiring layer thickness and consequently affecting conductivity and interlayer adhesion. Furthermore, traditional electroplated wiring layers require connecting leads around the wafer periphery to form a metal layer. Finally, micro-etching is used to remove these leads, but this process can lead to over-etching, causing uneven thickness and again impacting conductivity and interlayer adhesion.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0032] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the invention.

[0033] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0034] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that if terms such as "upper," "lower," "inner," or "outer" are used to indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship in which the product of this invention is usually placed, they are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this invention.

[0035] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be interpreted as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0036] As disclosed in the background section, existing chiplet technology can package chips with different functions together, such as photonic engine chips, memory chips, and / or processing chips, to form a co-packaged optoelectronic structure. However, existing wiring processes typically require etching openings across the entire wiring layer before electroplating the wafer pattern openings. This electroplating uniformity is poor, leading to inconsistent wiring layer thickness, which affects conductivity and interlayer adhesion. Furthermore, traditional electroplated wiring layers require lead wires designed around the wafer periphery to connect the plating points, forming a metal layer. Finally, micro-etching is used to remove the electroplated lead wires. This micro-etching process is prone to over-etching, easily causing the wiring layer to be eroded, resulting in uneven thickness, which also affects conductivity and interlayer adhesion.

[0037] Furthermore, conventional etching processes for opening are costly and energy-intensive. Additionally, etching solution residue is easily left after etching, causing irregular ripples at the edge of the dielectric layer at the opening due to the residual liquid. This can lead to uneven stress on the sidewalls of the dielectric layer and the formation of brittle points from moisture, making it prone to fracture.

[0038] To address the aforementioned problems, embodiments of the present invention provide a novel method for preparing a co-encapsulated optical structure and the co-encapsulated optical structure itself. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0039] First Embodiment Please see Figure 1 This invention provides a method for preparing a co-encapsulated optical structure 100. This method can use novel opening and electroplating processes to significantly improve the uniformity of the wiring layer, making the electroplated metal layer thickness consistent, thereby ensuring the conductivity and interlayer bonding of the wiring layer.

[0040] The method for fabricating the co-encapsulated optical structure 100 provided in this embodiment of the invention includes the following steps: S1: Form a substrate dielectric layer on the substrate.

[0041] See also Figure 2 Specifically, a substrate 200 can be taken first, and a liquid dielectric material can be directly spin-coated onto the surface of the substrate 200 using a coating machine. Then, the substrate can be soft-baked and shaped into a film using a hot plate to form a base dielectric layer 110. The substrate 200 can be made of materials such as glass, silicon oxide, or metal, and the dielectric material can be silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, polyimide, benzocyclobutene, etc.

[0042] S2: Use a cutting fixture to punch and cut the substrate medium layer to form a substrate pattern opening on the substrate medium layer.

[0043] See Figure 3 The surface of the cutting fixture 300 is provided with a cutting head protrusion 310 for cutting to form a base pattern opening 111. The cutting head protrusion 310 is also provided with an electroplating opening 311, and the electroplating opening 311 is movably sealed with a cap 313.

[0044] Specifically, the cutting fixture 300 with the blade protrusion 310 can be pressed together with the substrate medium layer 110 to achieve stamping and cutting. Then the cutting fixture 300 can be separated to form a substrate pattern opening 111 on the substrate medium layer 110.

[0045] It should be noted that after the stamping and cutting are completed, the substrate pattern opening 111 also needs to be cleaned. Specifically, the cover 313 can be opened, and the substrate pattern opening 111 can be chemically cleaned, wherein the cleaning solution flows into the substrate pattern opening 111 corresponding to the electroplating opening 311; wherein, a receiving cavity 312 is formed in the cutting fixture 300, the receiving cavity 312 is connected to the electroplating opening 311, and is used to receive the cleaning solution or electroplating solution. It is worth noting that the depth of the substrate pattern opening 111 here is less than the thickness of the substrate dielectric layer 110, thereby preventing the substrate pattern opening 111 from penetrating the substrate dielectric layer 110.

[0046] In actual preparation, a stamping and cutting method can be used first to press the protruding blade 310 towards the substrate dielectric layer 110 to form a substrate pattern opening 111. Then, a cleaning process is performed. First, a cleaning solution is filled into the receiving cavity 312. Then, the cap 313 is opened, and the cleaning solution is injected into the substrate pattern opening 111 through the electroplating opening 311 to achieve cleaning, removing residues and foreign matter from the substrate pattern opening 111. The cleaning solution can be a combination of triethanolamine, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, benzotriazole, chloride, surfactants, and other alcohol-based cleaning solutions. Because multiple electroplating openings 311 are used to clean the substrate pattern openings 111 at different locations, cleaning of a single opening is achieved, the cleaning solution distribution is more uniform, and the degree of saponification and emulsification reactions is significantly improved, thus greatly enhancing the cleaning effect.

[0047] S3: Electroplating is performed in the opening of the substrate pattern using a cutting fixture to form a base metal layer.

[0048] See Figure 4 The electroplating solution flows into the substrate pattern opening 111 through the electroplating opening 311. Specifically, the cutting fixture 300 is first attached to the substrate dielectric layer 110, so that the cutting head protrusion 310 extends into the substrate pattern opening 111. Then, the cap 313 is opened, and the electroplating solution is injected into the substrate pattern opening 111 for electroplating. Finally, the cutting fixture 300 is separated, so that a substrate metal layer 120 is formed in the substrate pattern opening 111. This electroplating method can directly perform multi-point electroplating at the location of the substrate pattern opening 111, which greatly improves the uniformity of the metal layer.

[0049] It should be noted that the cutting fixture 300 here is made entirely of conductive material, so there is no need to arrange additional electroplating leads.

[0050] It is worth noting that after the electroplating of the substrate metal layer 120 is completed, the thickness of the substrate metal layer 120 can be measured. Specifically, the thickness of the substrate metal layer 120 can be measured using a cutting fixture 300, wherein the cap 313 contacts the substrate metal layer 120, and the thickness of the substrate metal layer 120 is obtained by measuring the resistivity of the substrate metal layer 120. In actual measurement, the cap 313 can contact the substrate metal layer 120, and the resistivity of the substrate metal layer 120 is measured under power-on conditions to determine its thickness. Here, the thickness measurement of a single substrate metal layer 120 can be achieved separately, greatly improving the measurement accuracy. Traditional measurement methods select and measure multiple areas to determine the thickness of the wiring metal, which has measurement errors and omissions. Specifically, in existing processes, the wiring of the substrate 200 to be measured needs to be placed on a separate inspection machine for thickness measurement, such as generating a three-dimensional outline of the circuit through 3D scanning and directly reading the height (thickness) of the copper wiring protrusion, which has a large measurement error.

[0051] It should be noted that the thickness of the electroplated layer can be measured by resistivity, and it satisfies the following formula: t = ρ * L / R * W; Where t: copper wiring thickness (cm), converted to μm; ρ: copper resistivity, pure copper at 20℃: ρ = 1.72 × 10⁻⁶ 6 Ω cm; L: Actual length of the trace (cm); W: Trace width (cm); R: Actual DC resistance (Ω).

[0052] See also Figure 5 The cutting fixture 300 is described in detail below: The cutting fixture 300 has an internal receiving cavity 312, which communicates with an electroplating opening 311 and can hold cleaning solution or electroplating solution. Multiple blade protrusions 310 are integrally formed on one side surface of the cutting fixture 300, and each blade protrusion 310 has an electroplating opening 311 on its surface. A cover 313 is also movably disposed at the electroplating opening 311, and the cover 313 can open or close the electroplating opening 311.

[0053] In practical use, the substrate dielectric layer 110 can first be punched and cut using the protrusion 310 of the cutting head to form a substrate pattern opening 111. Then, a cleaning process is performed, with the cleaning solution entering the substrate wiring opening through the electroplating opening 311 to remove residues and foreign matter from the substrate pattern opening 111. Next, the electroplating solution is replaced in the receiving cavity 312, and injected directly into the substrate pattern opening 111 through the electroplating opening 311. Electroplating is then performed at the substrate pattern opening 111 to form a substrate metal layer 120, significantly improving the uniformity of the electroplated metal layer. Finally, the thickness of the substrate metal layer 120 is measured, improving measurement accuracy and enabling timely detection of whether the thickness and thickness uniformity are up to standard.

[0054] S4: Form a wiring assembly layer on the substrate dielectric layer.

[0055] See Figure 6 The wiring assembly layer 130 is electrically connected to the substrate metal layer 120. Specifically, the wiring assembly layer 130 includes a multilayer wiring dielectric layer 131 and a multilayer wiring metal layer 132, wherein the multilayer wiring metal layer 132 is disposed within the multilayer wiring dielectric layer 131. In actual fabrication, the wiring dielectric layer 131 can be formed on the substrate dielectric layer 110, and then the wiring metal layer 132 can be formed by opening, cleaning, and electroplating using a cutting fixture 300. This process is repeated to form the multilayer wiring dielectric layer 131 and the multilayer wiring metal layer 132. Alternatively, conventional wiring processes can be used to form the multilayer wiring dielectric layer 131 and the multilayer wiring metal layer 132.

[0056] S5: Multiple heterogeneous chips are mounted on the wiring assembly layer.

[0057] See Figure 7 Specifically, the plurality of heterogeneous chips 140 includes a first chip 141 and a second chip 142. In actual mounting, the first chip 141 and the second chip 142 can be mounted on the wiring combination layer 130, with the second chip 142 located on both sides of the first chip 141. Preferably, the first chip 141 and the second chip 142 can be flip-chip bonded to the structural pads of the wiring combination layer 130, and then an underfill adhesive can be applied to form a filler adhesive layer to protect the soldering structure of the flip-chip.

[0058] S6: Form a molding layer on the wiring assembly layer.

[0059] See Figure 8 The molding compound 150 covers multiple heterogeneous chips 140. Specifically, the molding compound 150 can be formed by printing or pressure injection molding. The molding compound 150 can cover the first chip 141 and the second chip 142, and also cover the filler adhesive layer, thus providing protection.

[0060] In some other preferred embodiments, the molding compound 150 can be thinned by grinding to expose the back sides of the first chip 141 and the second chip 142, thereby improving heat dissipation characteristics and reducing package height.

[0061] S7: Grind to remove the substrate and expose the base dielectric layer.

[0062] See Figure 9 Specifically, the substrate 200 can be polished first, using the substrate dielectric layer 110 as a polishing stop layer, until the substrate dielectric layer 110 is exposed. Then, the substrate dielectric layer 110 is further polished to thin it. It should be noted that the substrate dielectric layer 110 does not expose the substrate metal layer 120 after planarization. By removing the substrate 200 through chemical polishing, and using the substrate dielectric layer 110 as a polishing stop layer to continue polishing to a certain thickness, excessive polishing can be avoided to prevent damage to the substrate metal layer 120.

[0063] It should be noted that the substrate 200 is removed here by a grinding process, which avoids the debonding removal process in traditional technology, thus avoiding the generation of residual adhesive.

[0064] S8: Form solder balls on the substrate dielectric layer.

[0065] See Figure 10The solder ball 112 is electrically connected to the base metal layer 120. Specifically, an opening can be made on the back side of the base dielectric layer 110 through a stamping and cutting process to expose the base metal layer 120. Then, a solder ball 112 is formed in the opening through an electroplating process. The solder ball 112 can be at least one of Ti, Wu, Ni, Sn, Ag, and Cu, which can improve solderability. Furthermore, the stamping and cutting method used here can avoid damage to the base metal layer 120 by laser opening or traditional etching opening, and can ensure consistent opening depth, thereby ensuring uniform electroplating. Finally, it is cut into individual products.

[0066] See Figure 11a and Figure 12 This invention also provides a co-packaged optical structure 100, fabricated using the aforementioned method. The co-packaged optical structure 100 includes a substrate dielectric layer 110, a substrate metal layer 120, a wiring assembly layer 130, multiple heterogeneous chips 140, and a molding compound layer 150. One surface of the substrate dielectric layer 110 has a substrate pattern opening 111, and the other surface has solder balls 112. The substrate metal layer 120 is disposed in the substrate pattern opening 111 and electrically connected to the solder balls 112. The wiring assembly layer 130 is disposed on the substrate dielectric layer 110 and electrically connected to the substrate metal layer 120. Multiple heterogeneous chips 140 are mounted on the wiring assembly layer 130. The molding compound layer 150 is disposed on the wiring assembly layer 130 and encapsulates the multiple heterogeneous chips 140.

[0067] In this embodiment, the wiring combination layer 130 includes a multilayer wiring dielectric layer 131 and a multilayer wiring metal layer 132, with the multilayer wiring metal layer 132 correspondingly disposed in the multilayer wiring dielectric layer 131.

[0068] In this embodiment, the plurality of heterogeneous chips 140 includes a first chip 141 and a second chip 142, with the second chip 142 located on both sides of the first chip 141. The first chip 141 and the second chip 142 can be any combination of control chips, logic chips, or memory chips.

[0069] See Figure 11b In actual use, the co-packaged optical structure 100 can be mounted on a substrate 400. An optical module 143 and an optical fiber module 410 can be disposed on the substrate 400. The optical module 143 is spaced apart from the co-packaged optical structure 100, and the optical fiber module 410 is coupled to the optical module 143.

[0070] In summary, the fabrication method and the co-packaged optical structure 100 provided in this embodiment of the invention first form a substrate dielectric layer 110 on a substrate 200, and then use a cutting fixture 300 to punch and cut the substrate dielectric layer 110, thereby forming a substrate pattern opening 111 on the substrate dielectric layer 110. The cutting fixture 300 has a protruding cutting head 310 on its surface, which also has an electroplating opening 311, and a cap 313 is movably sealed to the electroplating opening 311. Then, the cutting fixture 300 directly electroplats a substrate metal layer 120 in the substrate pattern opening 111, wherein the electroplating solution flows into the substrate pattern opening 111 through the electroplating opening 311. Next, a wiring assembly layer 130 is formed on the substrate metal layer 120, and multiple heterogeneous chips 140 are mounted on the wiring assembly layer 130, forming a molding compound 150 covering the multiple heterogeneous chips 140. Finally, the substrate 200 is removed by grinding, and solder balls 112 are formed on the substrate dielectric layer 110. Compared with the prior art, this embodiment of the invention uses a specially designed cutting fixture 300 to punch and cut the substrate dielectric layer 110, thereby forming a substrate pattern opening 111. This novel opening process replaces the conventional etching opening process, resulting in lower costs and avoiding the negative impact of etching solution. At the same time, electroplating solution can be directly injected into the substrate pattern opening 111 using the electroplating opening 311 on the cutting fixture 300 to form a substrate metal layer 120. This novel electroplating process achieves multi-point injection while making the electroplating solution distribution more uniform, significantly improving wiring uniformity, effectively avoiding incomplete plating, and ensuring a consistent thickness of the electroplated metal layer, thereby guaranteeing the conductivity and interlayer bonding of the wiring structure.

[0071] Second Embodiment See Figure 13 This embodiment of the invention provides a co-encapsulated optical structure 100, whose basic structure, principle and technical effects are the same as those of the first embodiment. For the sake of brevity, any parts not mentioned in this embodiment can be referred to the corresponding content in the first embodiment.

[0072] The co-packaged optical structure 100 includes a substrate dielectric layer 110, a substrate metal layer 120, a wiring assembly layer 130, multiple heterogeneous chips 140, and a molding compound layer 150. One surface of the substrate dielectric layer 110 has a substrate pattern opening 111, and the other surface has solder balls 112. The substrate metal layer 120 is disposed in the substrate pattern opening 111 and electrically connected to the solder balls 112. The wiring assembly layer 130 is disposed on the substrate dielectric layer 110 and electrically connected to the substrate metal layer 120. Multiple heterogeneous chips 140 are mounted on the wiring assembly layer 130. The molding compound layer 150 is disposed on the wiring assembly layer 130 and encapsulates the multiple heterogeneous chips 140.

[0073] In this embodiment, the plurality of heterogeneous chips 140 include a first chip 141, a second chip 142 and an optical module 143. The second chip 142 is located on one side of the first chip 141 and the optical module 143 is located on the other side of the first chip 141.

[0074] Among them, see Figure 14a The optical module 143 includes a photonic chip 144, an electron chip 145, and a transparent adhesive layer 146. The photonic chip 144 has a photosensitive area 147. The electron chip 145 is disposed on the photonic chip 144 and offset from the photosensitive area 147. The transparent adhesive layer 146 is disposed on the photonic chip 144 and covers the photosensitive area 147. A groove is formed in the molding compound 150 to create an clearance notch 151, which is configured to expose the transparent adhesive layer 146.

[0075] Furthermore, an optical fiber module 410 (FAU) can be installed in the clearance notch 151 to achieve optical fiber coupling. During the process of creating the clearance notch 151, the transparent adhesive layer 146 can protect the photosensitive area 147 and prevent it from being damaged. At the same time, the slot can increase the heat dissipation area, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect. The optical fiber module 410 can be installed in the clearance notch 151, which can reduce the overall packaging height.

[0076] The following is a detailed description of the specific fabrication process of the optical module 143: First, such as Figure 14b A wafer can be provided, on which the transistor fabrication of the photonic die 144 is pre-done. The wafer has pads and optical areas formed on its front side, and electrical connection bumps formed on its back side. The pads on the front side and the electrical connection bumps on the back side are electrically connected. The back side of the wafer is then mounted on a carrier 500, and a transparent adhesive layer 146 is attached to the front side of the wafer. Then, grooves are cut into the transparent adhesive layer 146 to expose the pads. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 14c Then, the electron die 145 is flip-mounted and bonded to the pad in the slot, and filler adhesive is applied to the bottom of the electron die 145. Then, a molding compound 148 is formed, and the transparent adhesive layer 146 is ground to expose it. Finally, the carrier 500 is removed and cut to form a single optical module 143.

[0077] Of course, the encapsulation 148 can be omitted here, and a single optical module 143 can be directly cut. In other preferred embodiments of the present invention, the transparent adhesive layer 146 can be omitted, and the electron chip 145 can be directly mounted on the surface of the photonic chip 144. Alternatively, in other preferred embodiments of the present invention, the bottom of the electron chip 145 can be protected directly by the encapsulation 148 without the filler adhesive.

[0078] See Figure 15aIn other preferred embodiments of the present invention, the molding layer 150 may also expose the transparent adhesive layer 146 by grinding.

[0079] See Figure 15b In other preferred embodiments of the present invention, another optical module 143 is provided, which includes a photonic chip 144, an electron chip 145, a transparent adhesive layer 146, a molding compound 148, and a structural substrate 149. The photonic chip 144 has a photosensitive area 147 extending to the sidewall of the photonic chip 144. The electron chip 145 is disposed on the photonic chip 144 and offset from the photosensitive area 147. The transparent adhesive layer 146 is disposed on the photonic chip 144 and covers the photosensitive area 147, thereby enabling side light emission. The structural substrate 149 is disposed on the transparent adhesive layer 146. The molding compound 148 is disposed on the photonic chip 144 and encapsulates the electron chip 145. The molding compound 148 also includes an electrical post 1481. One end of the electrical post 1481 is connected to a pad on the surface of the photonic chip 144, while the other end is exposed outside the molding compound 148 and forms a solder ball at the end, thus achieving electrical connection between the photonic chip 144 and the outside. Unlike the aforementioned optical module 143, this module is mounted in an inverted manner, with the back of the electron chip 145 facing the wiring assembly layer 130, thereby achieving electrical connection between the photonic chip 144 and the wiring assembly layer 130 through the electrical post 1481.

[0080] Furthermore, the molding compound 148 here can improve its heat dissipation performance and reduce the package height by grinding to expose the back side of the die 145 and the surface of the structural substrate 149.

[0081] The structural substrate 149 may include elemental semiconductors such as silicon and germanium and / or compound semiconductors such as silicon-germanium, silicon carbide, gallium arsenide, indium arsenide, gallium nitride, or indium phosphide, or the structural substrate 149 may also include metals (such as copper / aluminum).

[0082] It should be noted that the first chip 141 can be high-bandwidth memory (HBM), DRAM, HBF (High-bandwidth Flash) flash memory, DDR random access memory, etc.; the second chip 142 can be a central processing unit (CPU) chip, a graphics processing unit (GPU) chip, etc.; and the optical module 143 can be a photonic engine chip, whose photonic integrated circuit design is used to utilize the unique properties of light, providing advantages such as high bandwidth, low power consumption and faster data transmission speed compared to its electronic counterpart.

[0087] S4: A wiring assembly layer 130 is formed on the substrate dielectric layer 110.

[0088] S5: Attach multiple heterogeneous chips 140 on the wiring combination layer 130.

[0092] S8: Solder balls 112 are formed on the substrate dielectric layer 110.

[0093] It should be noted that the molding layer 150 partially exposes the optical module 143, thus facilitating coupling with the external fiber optic module 410. By integrating the optical module 143 onto the wiring assembly layer 130, a CPO packaging structure can be achieved, realizing the optical module function and improving the functional characteristics and integration of the heterogeneous packaging structure.

[0098] It should be noted that the basic structure of the optical module 143 here is the same as in the second embodiment, except that the transparent adhesive layer 146 can be relatively thicker, thereby increasing the size of the photosensitive cavity, reducing the curvature of the light wave propagation, and avoiding strong bending radiation loss in small-radius waveguides. Simultaneously, it can increase the natural convection heat dissipation channel, increase the contact area between the upper and lower surfaces of the waveguide and the air, enhance convection heat transfer, and significantly reduce the peak temperature of hot spots. Furthermore, it can improve the sidewall bonding strength and enhance the photosensitivity of the photosensitive area 147 and the waveguide efficiency of the transparent adhesive layer 146.
