In some embodiments, Figures 11 to 14 A schematic enlarged cross-sectional view of Fig.10 The area outlined in the dotted box A is shown.

[0076] See also Figure 1, in some embodiments, a wafer 1000 is provided. Wafer 1000 may be a semiconductor wafer. In some embodiments, if a top view along direction Z is considered, wafer 1000 is in the form of a wafer or panel. In other words, wafer 1000 is processed in the form of a reconstructed wafer / panel. Wafer 1000 may be in the form of a wafer size having a diameter of about 4 inches or more. Wafer 1000 may be in the form of a wafer size having a diameter of about 6 inches or more. Wafer 1000 may be in the form of a wafer size having a diameter of about 8 inches or more.

In some embodiments, wafer 1000 includes a plurality of device regions R1 arranged in an array along direction X and direction Y, wherein each device region R1 is a predetermined position of a semiconductor device (die or chip) to be subsequently formed. Direction X, direction Y, and direction Z may be different from each other. For example, direction X is perpendicular to direction Y, and direction X and direction Y are respectively perpendicular to direction Z, such as Figure 1 In the present invention, direction Z may be referred to as a stacking direction, and an XY plane defined by direction X and direction Y may be referred to as a plan view or a top view.

[0077] On the wafer 1000, along a plurality of scribe lines SL (such as Figures 1 to 3 Before the wafer sawing or cutting process is performed (as shown by the dotted lines in FIG. 1 ), the device regions R1 of the wafer 1000 are physically connected to each other, for example, Figure 1 As shown. Figure 1 In the figure, for the purpose of illustration, only four device regions R1 are shown, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the wafer 1000 includes a semiconductor substrate 110, an interconnect structure 120 disposed on the semiconductor substrate 110, a plurality of conductive pads 130 disposed on the interconnect structure 120, a plurality of conductive vias 140 disposed on and connected to the conductive pads 130, a plurality of solder regions 150 disposed on and connected to the vias 140, a plurality of conductive vias 170 formed in the semiconductor substrate 110 and connected to the interconnect structure 120, and a plurality of liners 160 separating the vias 170 from the semiconductor substrate 110.

[0078] In some embodiments, the semiconductor substrate 110 includes a bulk semiconductor that may be doped or undoped, a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate, other supporting substrates (such as quartz, glass, etc.), combinations thereof, or similar substrates. In some embodiments, the semiconductor substrate 110 includes an elemental semiconductor (e.g., silicon or germanium in a crystalline, polycrystalline, or amorphous structure), a compound semiconductor (e.g., silicon carbide, gallium arsenide, gallium phosphide, indium phosphide, indium arsenide, and / or indium antimonide, etc.), an alloy semiconductor (e.g., silicon germanium (SiGe), gallium arsenic phosphide (GaAsP), aluminum indium arsenide (AlInAs), aluminum gallium arsenide (AlGaAs), gallium indium arsenide (GaInAs), gallium indium phosphide (GaInP), etc.), combinations thereof, or other suitable materials. The compound semiconductor substrate may have a multilayer structure, or the substrate may include a multilayer compound semiconductor structure. The alloy SiGe may be formed on a silicon substrate. The SiGe substrate may be strained. In some embodiments, in the direction Z, the thickness T110a of the semiconductor substrate 110 is greater than or substantially equal to 400 μm. For example, the thickness T110a of the semiconductor substrate 110 is in the range of about 400 μm to about 1500 μm. In some embodiments, the thickness T110a of the semiconductor substrate 110 is 775 μm. In such a case, the thickness T180a of the dielectric layer 180a is in the range of about 3 μm to about 15 μm.

[0079] In some embodiments, the semiconductor substrate 110 includes a plurality of semiconductor components formed therein or thereon, wherein the semiconductor components include active components (e.g., transistors, diodes, etc.) and / or passive components (e.g., capacitors, resistors, inductors, etc.), or other suitable electrical components. In some embodiments, the semiconductor components are formed at an active surface 110s1 of the semiconductor substrate 110 near the interconnect structure 120. In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the semiconductor substrate 110 has an active surface 110s1 and a rear surface 110s2 opposite to the active surface 110s1 along a direction Z, and the interconnect structure 120 is disposed on and covers the active surface 110s1 of the semiconductor substrate 110. For non-limiting examples, the interconnect structure 120 may cover the semiconductor substrate 110 and may be electrically connected to a semiconductor component formed inside or on the semiconductor substrate 110.

[0080] The semiconductor substrate 110 may include a circuit system (not shown) formed in a front-end-of-line (FEOL) manufacturing process of the wafer 1000 to provide a routing function for the semiconductor components (if any) for internal connection, and the interconnect structure 120 may be formed in a back-end-of-line (BEOL) manufacturing process of the wafer 1000 to provide a further routing function for the semiconductor components (if any) and the vias 170 for external connection. In some embodiments, in such a BEOL manufacturing process, the interconnect structure 120 includes an inter-layer dielectric (ILD) layer formed above the semiconductor substrate 110 and covering the semiconductor components (if any) and the vias 170, and an inter-metallization dielectric (IMD) layer formed above the ILD layer. In some embodiments, the ILD layer and the IMD layer are composed of a low-K dielectric material or an extreme low-K (ELK) dielectric material, such as oxide, silicon dioxide, borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG), phosphosilicate glass (PSG), fluorinatedsilicate glass (FSG), SiOxCy (x>0, y>0), spin-on glass, spin-on polymer, silicon carbide material, compounds thereof, composites thereof, combinations thereof, or the like. The ILD layer and the IMD layer may include any suitable number of dielectric material layers, and the number of dielectric material layers is not limited thereto.

[0081] In some embodiments, the interconnect structure 120 includes one or more dielectric layers 122 and one or more metallization layers 124 alternately along the direction Z. The metallization layer 124 may be embedded in the dielectric layer 122. In some embodiments, the interconnect structure 120 is electrically coupled to semiconductor components (if any) formed in or on the semiconductor substrate 110 and is electrically coupled to external components (e.g., test pads, bonding conductors, etc.) formed on the interconnect structure 120, and / or is electrically coupled to vias 170 formed in the semiconductor substrate 110 and is electrically coupled to external components (e.g., test pads, bonding conductors, etc.) formed on the interconnect structure 120. For example, the metallization layer 124 in the dielectric layer 122 routes electrical signals between semiconductor components (if any) of the semiconductor substrate 110 and between semiconductor components of the semiconductor substrate 110 and external components, and / or routes electrical signals between vias 170 formed in the semiconductor substrate 110 and between vias 170 and external components. In some embodiments, the semiconductor components (if any) and the metallization layer 124 are interconnected to perform one or more functions, including memory structures (e.g., memory cells), processing structures (e.g., logic cells), input / output (I / O) circuits (e.g., I / O cells), etc. In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the outermost layer of the dielectric layer 122 (also referred to as the outermost dielectric layer) has a plurality of openings (not shown) exposing portions of the uppermost layer of the metallization layer 124 for further electrical connection.

[0082] The dielectric layer 122 may be a polyimide (PI), polybenzoxazole (PBO), benzocyclobutene (BCB), a nitride (e.g., silicon nitride), an oxide (e.g., silicon oxide), phosphosilicate glass (PSG), borosilicate glass (BSG), boron-doped phosphosilicate glass (BPSG), a combination thereof, or the like, which may be patterned using photolithography and / or etching processes. In some embodiments, the dielectric layer 122 is formed by a suitable fabrication technique such as spin coating, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), or the like. The dielectric layer 122 may be collectively referred to as a dielectric structure of the interconnect structure 120.

[0083] The metallization layer 124 may be made of a conductive material such as copper, copper alloy, aluminum, aluminum alloy, or a combination thereof formed by electroplating or deposition, which may be patterned using photolithography and etching processes. In some embodiments, the metallization layer 124 is a patterned copper layer or other suitable patterned metal layer. The metallization layer 124 may be a metal line, a metal via, a metal pad, a metal trace, or a combination thereof. For example, each layer of the metallization layer 124 includes a horizontal portion (or line portion) extending along a direction X and / or a direction Y and a vertical portion (or via portion) extending along a direction Z, wherein each horizontal portion is electrically connected to one or more vertical portions. Throughout the description, the term "copper" is intended to include substantially pure elemental copper, copper containing unavoidable impurities, and copper alloys containing small amounts of elements such as tantalum, indium, tin, zinc, manganese, chromium, titanium, germanium, strontium, platinum, magnesium, aluminum, or zirconium. The number of dielectric layers 122 and metallization layers 124 is not limited in the present invention and can be selected and specified according to requirements and design layout / needs. The metallization layers 124 can be collectively referred to as a redistribution structure of the interconnect structure 120, wherein the redistribution structure is embedded in the dielectric structure.

[0084] In some embodiments, Figure 1As shown, the conductive pad 130 is disposed on the interconnect structure 120 and electrically connected to (e.g., physically contacted (physical contact)) the exposed portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 124 through an opening formed in the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 122, and the via 140 is disposed on the conductive pad 130 and electrically connected to (e.g., physically contacted) the conductive pad 130 contacting the topmost layer of the metallization layer 124 of the interconnect structure 120. The conductive pad 130 contacting the topmost layer of the metallization layer 124 of the interconnect structure 120 may be referred to as under bump metallurgy (UBM). The conductive pad 130 may be omitted. In some alternative embodiments, if the conductive pad 130 is omitted, the via 140 is disposed on the interconnect structure 120 and electrically connected to the exposed portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 124 through an opening formed in the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 122. In some embodiments, the solder region 150 is disposed on and electrically connected to (eg, physically contacts) the via 140 , wherein the via 140 is between the solder region 150 and the conductive pad 130 , and the conductive pad 130 is between the via 140 and the interconnect structure 120 .

[0085] For example, the formation of the conductive pad 130, the via 140, and the solder region 150 includes, but is not limited to, conformally and completely forming a seed layer (not shown) on the interconnect structure 120 and extending into the opening to contact the topmost layer of the metallization layer 124. In some embodiments, the seed layer is a metal layer, which can be a single layer or a composite layer including multiple sub-layers formed of different materials. In some embodiments, the seed layer can include a titanium layer and a copper layer located on the titanium layer, or include two titanium layers and a copper layer sandwiched therebetween. The seed layer can be formed using, for example, sputtering or a similar process.

[0086] Then, for example, a photoresist (not shown) is formed and patterned on the seed layer. The photoresist can be formed by spin coating or similar processes and can be patterned by exposure to light. In some embodiments, the material of the photoresist includes a positive resist material or a negative resist material suitable for patterning processes such as a photolithography process with a mask or a photolithography process without a mask (e.g., electron beam (e-beam) (e-beam) writing or ion beam writing). In the present utility model, the photoresist can be referred to as a photoresist layer or a resist layer. In some embodiments, the pattern of the photoresist corresponds to the positioning position of the via 140. For example, the photoresist is patterned to obtain a pattern of multiple through holes with a seed layer exposed below, wherein the via 140 is formed in the through hole in a subsequent step.

[0087] For example, a conductive material (not shown) is formed in the patterned through holes of the photoresist and on the exposed portion of the seed layer to form a plurality of vias 140 on the exposed portion of the seed layer, wherein the exposed portion of the seed layer contacts the topmost layer of the metallization layer 124. In other words, the vias 140 are electrically connected to the interconnect structure 120 through the seed layer below. In some embodiments, some of the vias 140 are used to electrically connect to other semiconductor components (if any), vias 170, or are electrically grounded. The present invention is not limited thereto.

[0088] The conductive material can be formed in the patterned through hole of the photoresist by plating (e.g., electroplating or chemical plating) or similar processes. The conductive material may include metals such as copper, aluminum, gold, nickel, silver, palladium, tin, etc. In some embodiments, the via 140 may be high lead or lead-free. The via 140 may be a controlled collapse chip connection (C4) bump, a microbump, a bump formed by electroless nickel-immersion gold technique (ENIG), a bump formed by electroless nickel-electroless palladium-immersion gold technique (ENEPIG), or a similar bump. The utility model is not limited to this. In some embodiments, the spacing D1 between two adjacent adjacent vias 140 is in the range of about 6 μm to about 25 μm, although other suitable thicknesses may be used instead.

[0089] The solder material can be formed on the via hole 140 located in the patterned through hole of the photoresist, and a reflow process can be subsequently performed to shape the solder material into a desired bump shape on the via hole 140 to form a solder area 150. For example, the solder material is disposed on the via hole 140 by printing or a similar process. The material of the solder area 150 may include eutectic solder or non-eutectic solder. The solder may include lead or lead-free, and may include Sn-Ag, Sn-Cu, Sn-Ag-Cu, or the like. For example, as shown, the material of the solder area 150 may include a lead-free (LF) solder material (e.g., a tin-based material), and may or may not have additional impurities (e.g., Ni, Bi, Sb, Ag, Cu, Au, or the like). In the present invention, as Figure 3As depicted in FIG. 1 , a via 140 and a corresponding solder region 150 directly disposed thereon may be collectively referred to as a conductive terminal of the semiconductor device 100A. The conductive terminal of the semiconductor device 100A may be referred to as a conductor, a conductive connection, or a conductive input / output terminal of the semiconductor device 100A, which is used to electrically connect to an external component or device (e.g., an additional semiconductor package / device, a circuit substrate or structure, an interposer, a capacitor, a power source, or the like).

[0090] After forming the plurality of vias 140 and the plurality of solder regions 150, the photoresist is removed by an ashing or stripping process, for example, using oxygen plasma or the like. Once the photoresist is removed, the portion of the seed layer not covered by the vias 140 and the solder regions 150 is removed using an etching process to form the conductive pad 130. In some embodiments, the etching process may be wet etching or dry etching. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the portion of the seed layer not covered by the vias 140 and the solder regions 150 is removed, and a self-aligned patterning process is performed using the vias 140 and the solder regions 150 as a mask to form the conductive pad 130. In such a case, the vias 140 share the same pattern with the conductive pad 130 thereunder. For example, as Figure 1 As shown, the sidewall of the via 140 and the sidewall of the conducting pad 130 thereunder are substantially aligned.

[0091] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the vias 140 share the same lateral width (or diameter), and the solder areas 150 share the same lateral width (or diameter), wherein the lateral width of the vias 140 is equal to the lateral width of the solder areas 150. However, the present invention is not limited thereto; alternatively, the vias 140 (partially or entirely) have different lateral widths. The solder areas 150 (partially or entirely) have different lateral widths. For the sake of illustration and simplicity, Figure 1 Only six vias 140, six solder areas 150 and four vias 170 are shown in each device region R1 depicted in the figure, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The number of vias 140, solder areas 150 and vias 170 is not limited to the present invention and can be selected and specified according to requirements and design layout / needs.

[0092] Continue Figure 1 In some embodiments, the via 170 is embedded in the semiconductor substrate 110. For example, the via 170 is formed in the semiconductor substrate 110 and extends from the active surface 110s1 to the rear surface 110s2 along the direction Z. Figure 1As shown, for example, the top surface 170s1 of the via 170 is substantially coplanar with the active surface 110s1 of the semiconductor substrate 110 to contact the bottommost layer of the metallization layer 124 exposed through the bottommost layer of the dielectric layer 122 of the interconnect structure 120. In some embodiments, the via 170 cannot be exposed in a touchable manner by the back surface 110s2 of the semiconductor substrate 110. In some embodiments, the via 170 can taper from the interconnect structure 120 to the back surface 110s2. Alternatively, the via 170 has a substantially vertical sidewall. In the cross-sectional view along the direction Z, the shape of the via 170 can depend on the design requirements, and the utility model is not limited thereto. On the other hand, in the top (planar) view of the XY plane, the shape of the via 170 is circular. However, according to the design requirements, the shape of the via 170 can be elliptical, rectangular, polygonal or a combination thereof; the utility model is not limited thereto.

[0093] In some embodiments, the via 170 physically contacts the bottommost layer of the metallization layer 124 of the interconnect structure 120 at the active surface 110s1 and is exposed through the bottommost layer of the dielectric layer 122 of the interconnect structure 120, such as Figure 1 That is, the via 170 is electrically connected to the semiconductor device (if any) in the semiconductor substrate 110 through the interconnect structure 120, is electrically connected to the via 140 through the interconnect structure 120 and the conductive pad 130, and is electrically connected to the solder area 150 through the interconnect structure 120, the conductive pad 130 and the via 140. The via 170 can be formed of a conductive material, such as copper, tungsten, aluminum, silver, or a combination thereof. The utility model does not limit the number of vias 170, which can be selected and specified according to demand and design layout / needs.

[0094] In some embodiments, each of the vias 170 is covered by a liner 160. For example, the liner 160 is formed between the via 170 and the semiconductor substrate 110. The liner 160 may be formed of a barrier material, such as TiN, Ta, TaN, Ti, or the like. In some alternative embodiments, a dielectric liner (not shown) (e.g., silicon nitride, oxide, polymer, a combination thereof, etc.) may be optionally formed between the liner 160 and the semiconductor substrate 110. In some embodiments, the via 170, the liner 160, and the optional dielectric liner may be formed by forming a plurality of recesses in the semiconductor substrate 110, depositing a dielectric material, a barrier material, and a conductive material in the plurality of recesses, respectively, and removing excess material on the semiconductor substrate 110. For example, the recesses of the semiconductor substrate 110 are lined with a dielectric liner to laterally separate the liner 160 lining the sidewalls of the via 170 from the semiconductor substrate 110. In some embodiments, the via 170 is formed by using a via first method. In such embodiments, the via 170 is formed before the interconnect structure 120. Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the via 170 is separated from the semiconductor substrate 110 by at least the liner 160. Alternatively, the liner 160 may be omitted. Figure 1 As shown, for example, a top surface 160s1 of the liner 160 is substantially coplanar with a top surface 170s1 of the via 170 and an active surface 110s1 of the semiconductor substrate 110. In some embodiments, the liner 160 is not accessible through the back surface 110s2 of the semiconductor substrate 110.

[0095] refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, a dielectric material 180m is formed on the wafer 1000. For example, the dielectric material 180m is disposed on the interconnect structure 120 (e.g., the dielectric material 180m is in physical contact with the interconnect structure 120) and laterally covers the conductive pad 130 and the via 140. In such a case, the solder region 150 does not contact the dielectric material 180m. Figure 2 As shown. Alternatively, the dielectric material 180m may further partially cover the solder region 150, wherein the solder region 150 may still be exposed in a touchable manner through the dielectric material 180m. For example, the dielectric material 180m is formed on the wafer 1000 by a compression molding process or a similar process. However, the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0096] In some embodiments, the dielectric material 180m may include an organic dielectric material such as a polymer (such as an epoxy resin, a phenolic resin, a silicon-containing resin, a rubber-based resin, an acrylic polymer, or other suitable resin) or other suitable organic dielectric material. In some embodiments, the dielectric material 180m may further include an inorganic filler or an inorganic compound (e.g., silica, clay, alumina, etc.) that may be added to the dielectric material 180m to optimize the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of the dielectric material 180m. In this case, the amount of the inorganic filler or inorganic compound present in the dielectric material 180m (in weight percentage) is about 70 wt% to about 90 wt%, for example: 70 wt%, 75 wt%, 80 wt%, 85 wt%, or 90 wt%. In some embodiments, the ratio of the CTE of the semiconductor substrate 110 to the CTE of the dielectric material 180m is approximately in the range of 25:70 to 8:15.

[0097] Also refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, a sawing (or singulation) process is then performed along the sawing lines SL to saw through the dielectric material 180m, the interconnect structure 120, and the semiconductor substrate 110, thereby forming a plurality of individual and separate semiconductor devices 100A corresponding to the device region R1, wherein each semiconductor device 100A includes the semiconductor substrate 110, the interconnect structure 120, a plurality of conductive pads 130, a plurality of vias 140, a plurality of solder regions 150, a plurality of pads 160, a plurality of vias 170, and a dielectric layer 180a. In such a case, the dielectric material 180m is segmented into a plurality of discrete segments, such as the dielectric layer 180a included in the plurality of individual and separate semiconductor devices 100A corresponding to the device region R1. In some embodiments, the thickness T180a (along the direction Z) of the dielectric layer 180a is about 3 μm to about 15 μm, although other suitable thicknesses may be used instead. The dielectric layer 180a may be referred to as an organic dielectric layer of the semiconductor device 100A. The details of the dielectric layer 180a are similar to those described above. Figure 2 The details of the dielectric material 180m are similar or substantially the same and are not repeated here.

[0098] In one embodiment, the cutting (or singulation) process is a wafer cutting process including mechanical blade sawing or laser cutting. The present invention is not limited thereto. Figure 3As shown, for each semiconductor device 100A, the sidewalls of the dielectric layer 180a, the sidewalls of the interconnect structure 120, and the sidewalls of the semiconductor substrate 110 are substantially aligned in the direction Z. In the present invention, for each semiconductor device 100A, the sidewalls of the dielectric layer 180a, the sidewalls of the interconnect structure 120, and the sidewalls of the semiconductor substrate 110 together constitute the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100A. In such a case, the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100A are substantially vertical sidewalls. In some embodiments, each semiconductor device 100A is referred to as a bridge device, a bridge die, a bridge chip, or a bridge, which provides electrical communication between two or more other semiconductor devices (or dies / chips) in the package structure PS1.

[0099] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments, a carrier 50 is provided. In some embodiments, the carrier 50 may be a glass carrier, a ceramic carrier, or any suitable carrier for carrying a semiconductor wafer or a reconstituted wafer for a method of manufacturing a (semiconductor) package structure, for example Fig.10 . In some alternative embodiments, carrier 50 may be a reclaim wafer or a reconstructed wafer for a method of manufacturing a (semiconductor) packaging structure. As a non-limiting example, when the material of carrier 50 is a Si substrate, carrier 50 may serve as a heat dissipation device for packaging structure PS1. In such an embodiment, carrier 50 may be further used for warpage control during the manufacturing process of packaging structure PS1. For another non-limiting example, when carrier 50 is a glass carrier, carrier 50 may be removed after manufacturing packaging structure PS1. In one embodiment, carrier 50 may serve as a temporary support structure that may be removed during or after the method of manufacturing packaging structure PS1. Alternatively, carrier 50 may serve as a mechanical support structure that is not removed after the method of manufacturing packaging structure PS1.

[0100] In some embodiments, the carrier 50 is coated with a release layer 52 (eg, Figure 4). The material of the peeling layer 52 may be any material suitable for bonding and peeling the carrier 50 relative to the upper layer or any wafer disposed thereon. In some embodiments, the peeling layer 52 includes a dielectric material layer composed of a dielectric material, wherein the dielectric material includes any suitable polymer-based dielectric material (e.g., BCB, PBO). As a non-limiting example, the peeling layer 52 includes a dielectric material layer made of an epoxy-based thermal release material such as a light-to-heat-conversion (LTHC) release coating film that loses its adhesive properties when heated. For another non-limiting example, the peeling layer 52 includes a dielectric material layer made of a UV glue that loses its adhesive properties when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light. The peeling layer 52 may be dispensed as a liquid and cured on the carrier 50, may be a laminate film laminated to the carrier 50, or may be formed on the carrier 50 by any suitable method. For example, as Figure 4 As shown, the top surface of the peeling layer 52 (which is opposite to the bottom surface contacting the carrier 102) is flattened and has a high degree of coplanarity. In a specific embodiment, the peeling layer 52 is a LTHC release layer with good chemical resistance, and such a layer can be peeled off from the carrier 50 at room temperature by applying laser irradiation, but the utility model is not limited thereto.

[0101] In an alternative embodiment, a buffer layer (not shown) is coated on the peeling layer 52, wherein the peeling layer 52 is sandwiched between the buffer layer and the carrier 50, and the top surface of the buffer layer can further provide a high degree of coplanarity. In some embodiments, the buffer layer can be a dielectric material layer. In some embodiments, the buffer layer can be a polymer layer made of polyimide (PI), PBO, BCB, or any other suitable polymer-based dielectric material. In some embodiments, the buffer layer can be an Ajinomoto Buildup Film (ABF), a Solder Resist Film (SRF), or a similar film. In other words, the buffer layer is an optional dielectric layer that can be omitted based on demand; the utility model is not limited thereto. For example, the buffer layer can be formed by suitable manufacturing techniques such as spin-coating, lamination, deposition, or similar techniques.

[0102] In some embodiments, at least one semiconductor device 200 is provided on the peeling layer 52 and above the carrier 50. For example, Figure 4As shown, for the purpose of illustration, two semiconductor devices 200 are shown, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the semiconductor device 200 is picked up and placed on the peeling layer 52 and the carrier 50. Figure 4 As shown, for convenience of explanation, the semiconductor device 200 on the left hand side in the drawing may be denoted as the semiconductor device 200 - 1 , and the semiconductor device 200 on the right hand side in the drawing may be denoted as the semiconductor device 200 - 2 .

[0103] In some embodiments, each semiconductor device 200 includes a semiconductor substrate 210, a device layer 220 formed with a plurality of semiconductor elements (not shown) and formed on the semiconductor substrate 110, an interconnect structure 230 formed on the device layer 220 and above the semiconductor substrate 210, a plurality of connection pads 240 formed on the interconnect structure 230, a plurality of connection vias 250 formed on the connection pads 240, and a protective layer 260 covering the interconnect structure 230, the connection pads 240, and the connection vias 250. In some embodiments, the semiconductor substrate 210 includes a bulk semiconductor substrate that may be doped or undoped, a semiconductor on insulator (SOI) substrate, other supporting substrates (e.g., quartz, glass, etc.), combinations thereof, or the like. In some embodiments, the semiconductor substrate 210 includes an elemental semiconductor (e.g., silicon or germanium in a crystalline, polycrystalline, or amorphous structure), a compound semiconductor (e.g., silicon carbide, gallium arsenide, gallium phosphide, indium phosphide, indium arsenide, and / or indium antimonide), an alloy semiconductor (e.g., silicon germanium (SiGe), gallium arsenic phosphide (GaAsP), aluminum indium arsenide (AlInAs), aluminum gallium arsenide (AlGaAs), gallium indium arsenide (GaInAs), gallium indium phosphide (GaInP), etc.), combinations thereof, or other suitable materials. The compound semiconductor substrate may have a multilayer structure, or the substrate may include a multilayer compound semiconductor structure. Alloy SiGe may be formed on a silicon substrate. The SiGe substrate may be strained.

[0104] In some embodiments, the device layer 220 includes a plurality of semiconductor components formed on the semiconductor substrate 210 (and / or partially formed in the semiconductor substrate 210), wherein the semiconductor components include active components (e.g., transistors, diodes, memories, etc.) and / or passive components (e.g., capacitors, resistors, inductors, jumpers, etc.), or other suitable electrical components. The device layer 220 may be disposed in the semiconductor substrate 210 at an active surface AS near the interconnect structure 230, such as Figure 4In some embodiments, the semiconductor substrate 210 has an active surface AS and a bottom surface (or inactive surface) BS opposite to the active surface AS along a stacking direction Z of the interconnect structure 230, the device layer 220, and the semiconductor substrate 210. In some embodiments, the device layer 220 is between the active surface AS of the semiconductor substrate 210 and the interconnect structure 230.

[0105] The device layer 220 may include a circuit (not shown) formed in the FEOL, and the interconnect structure 230 may be formed in the BEOL. In some embodiments, the interconnect structure 230 includes an ILD layer formed above the device layer 220 and an IMD layer formed above the ILD layer. In some embodiments, the ILD layer and the IMD layer are composed of a low-k dielectric material or an extremely low-k dielectric material, such as oxide, silicon dioxide, BPSG, PSG, FSG, SiOxCy (x>0, y>0), spin-on glass, spin-on polymer, silicon-carbon material, compounds thereof, composites thereof, combinations thereof, etc. The ILD layer and the IMD layer may include any suitable number of dielectric material layers, and the number of layers of the dielectric material layers is not limited thereto.

[0106] In some embodiments, the interconnect structure 230 alternately includes one or more dielectric layers 232 and one or more metallization layers 234. The metallization layers 234 may be embedded in the dielectric layers 232. In some embodiments, the interconnect structure 230 electrically couples the semiconductor components of the device layer 220 to each other and to external components (e.g., test pads, bonding conductors, etc.) formed thereon. For example, the metallization layers 234 in the dielectric layers 232 route electrical signals between the semiconductor components of the device layer 220. The semiconductor components in the device layer 220 and the metallization layers 234 are interconnected to implement one or more functions including memory structures (e.g., memory cells), processing structures (e.g., logic cells), input / output (I / O) circuit systems (e.g., I / O cells), or the like. The topmost layer of the interconnect structure 230 may be a passivation layer made of one or more suitable dielectric materials such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, low-k dielectric, polyimide (PI), combinations of these materials, or the like. Figure 4 As shown, the passivation layer (eg, the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 232 ) of the interconnect structure 230 has a plurality of openings that expose at least a portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 234 for further electrical connection.

[0107] The dielectric layer 232 may be PI, PBO, BCB, nitride (e.g., silicon nitride), oxide (e.g., silicon oxide), PSG, BSG, BPSG, combinations thereof, or similar materials that can be patterned using photolithography and / or etching processes. The etching process may include dry etching, wet etching, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the dielectric layer 232 is formed by a suitable fabrication technique such as spin coating, CVD, PECVD, or a similar process.

[0108] The metallization layer 234 may be made of a conductive material such as copper, copper alloy, aluminum, aluminum alloy, or a combination thereof, formed by electroplating or deposition, which may be patterned using photolithography and etching processes. The etching process may include dry etching, wet etching, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the metallization layer 234 is a patterned copper layer or other suitable patterned metal layer. For example, the metallization layer 234 may be a metal line, a metal via, a metal pad, a metal trace, etc. The number of layers of the dielectric layer 232 and the number of layers of the metallization layer 234 are not limited in the present invention and may be selected and specified based on requirements and design layout.

[0109] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown in , the connection pad 240 is disposed on and electrically coupled to a portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 234 of the interconnect structure 230 that is exposed by the passivation layer of the interconnect structure 230 (e.g., the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 232) for testing and / or further electrical connection. The connection pad 240 may be made of aluminum, copper, or an alloy thereof, or a similar material, and may be formed by an electroplating process. The utility model is not limited thereto. Some of the connection pads 240 may be test pads, and some of the connection pads 240 may be conductive pads for further electrical connection. In some alternative embodiments, the connection pad 240 may be optional for the sake of simple structure and cost-effectiveness. In such an alternative embodiment, the connection via 250 may be directly connected to the topmost metallization layer 234.

[0110] In some embodiments, the connecting vias 250 are respectively disposed on the connecting pads 240 and electrically connected to the connecting pads 240 to provide external electrical connections for the circuit system and semiconductor components of the device layer 220. In one embodiment, the connecting vias 250 may be formed of conductive materials such as copper, gold, aluminum, similar materials or combinations thereof, and may be formed by electroplating processes or similar processes. The connecting vias 250 may be bonding vias, bonding pads or bonding bumps or combinations thereof. The utility model is not limited thereto. The connecting vias 250 may be used as bonding conductive members for further electrical connection, and may be formed on the connecting pads 240 (used as conductive pads for further electrical connection). The connecting vias 250 may be electrically coupled to the semiconductor components of the device layer 220 through the internal wiring structure 230 and the connecting pads 240.

[0111] Alternatively, both the connection pad 240 and the connection via 250 can be formed on the interconnect structure 230. For example, the connection via 250 is disposed on the topmost layer of the metallization layer 234 of the interconnect structure 230 exposed by the passivation layer (e.g., the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 232) of the interconnect structure 230 and is electrically connected to the topmost layer. That is, the connection via 250 and the connection pad 240 can both be disposed in a side-by-side manner on the topmost layer of the metallization layer 234 of the interconnect structure 230 exposed by the passivation layer. In such an embodiment, the connection pad 240 can be a test pad for testing, and the connection via 250 can be a bonding conductive member for further electrical connection. The connection via 250 can be electrically coupled to the semiconductor component of the device layer 220 through the interconnect structure 230.

[0112] In some embodiments, the protection layer 260 is formed on the interconnect structure 230 to cover the interconnect structure 230, the connection pad 240, and the connection via 250. That is, the protection layer 260 prevents any possible damage from occurring on the connection pad 240 and the connection via 250 during the transfer of the semiconductor device 200. In addition, in some embodiments, the protection layer 260 is further used as a passivation layer to provide better planarization and evenness. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 2 , the top surface of the connecting via 250 is not exposed in an accessible manner from the surface S0 of the protection layer 260 .

[0113] The protective layer 260 may include one or more layers of dielectric materials, such as silicon nitride, silicon oxide, high-density plasma (HDP) oxide, tetra-ethyl-ortho-silicate (TEOS), undoped silicate glass (USG), silicon oxynitride, PBO, PI, silicon carbide, silicon oxycarbon nitride (SiOCN), diamond like carbon (DLC), and the like, or a combination thereof. It should be understood that, depending on the process requirements, the protective layer 260 may include an etch stop material layer (not shown) sandwiched between dielectric material layers. For example, the etch stop material layer is different from the overlying dielectric material layer or the underlying dielectric material layer. The etch stop material layer may be formed of a material having a high etch selectivity relative to the overlying dielectric material layer or the underlying dielectric material layer so as to be used to stop etching the dielectric material layer.

[0114] In some embodiments, the semiconductor device 200 is picked up and placed on the carrier 50 and disposed on the peeling layer 52. In some embodiments, the semiconductor device 200 is face-up and placed on the peeling layer 52 on the carrier 50. Figure 4 As shown, the surface S0 of the protective layer 260 of the semiconductor device 200 is disposed away from the peeling layer 52, wherein the bottom surface BS of the semiconductor device 200 is, for example, disposed on the shown top surface of the peeling layer 52. In this case, the surface S0 of the protective layer 160 of the semiconductor device 200 faces upward and is exposed in an accessible manner.

The type of semiconductor device 200 may be selected and specified based on needs and design requirements, and thus is not particularly limited in the present invention.

[0116] According to some embodiments of the present invention, some semiconductor devices 200 are of different types, while some semiconductor devices 200 are of the same type. In alternative embodiments, all semiconductor devices 200 are of different types. In further alternative embodiments, all semiconductor devices 200 are of the same type. According to some embodiments of the present invention, some semiconductor devices 200 are of different sizes, while some semiconductor devices 200 are of the same size. In alternative embodiments, all semiconductor devices 200 are of different sizes. In further alternative embodiments, all semiconductor devices 200 are of the same size. According to some embodiments of the present invention, some semiconductor devices 200 are of different shapes, while some semiconductor devices 200 are of the same shape. In alternative embodiments, all semiconductor devices 200 are of different shapes. In further alternative embodiments, all semiconductor devices 200 are of the same shape. The type, size, and shape of each of the semiconductor devices 200 are independent of each other and may be selected and specified based on requirements and design layout, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0117] Despite Figure 4 For illustrative purposes, only two semiconductor devices 200 are presented. However, it should be noted that the number of semiconductor devices 200 (e.g., semiconductor devices 200-1 and / or 200-2) may be one, two, three, or more than three, and the present invention is not limited thereto. The semiconductor devices 200 may be arranged side by side with each other along direction X. The semiconductor devices 200 may be arranged side by side with each other along direction Y. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, the semiconductor devices 200 are arranged in a matrix form, such as an NxN array or an NxM array (N, M>0, N may be equal to M or may not be equal to M). The present invention is not limited thereto.

[0118] Continue Figure 4In some embodiments, an encapsulation material 300m is formed over the peeling layer 52 and on the carrier 50 to encapsulate the semiconductor device 200. For example, the semiconductor device 200 is embedded in the encapsulation material 300m, and the peeling layer 52 exposed by the semiconductor device 200 is covered by the encapsulation material 300m. In other words, the connection vias 250 and the protective layer 260 of the semiconductor device 200 may not be exposed in a touchable manner and are well protected by the encapsulation material 300m. In some embodiments, the encapsulation material 300m is a molding compound, a molding underfill, a resin (such as an epoxy resin), or the like. The encapsulation material 300m can be formed by a molding process such as a compression molding process or a transfer molding process. In some embodiments, the encapsulant material 300m may further include an inorganic filler or inorganic compound (e.g., silica, clay, etc.) that can be added to the encapsulant material 300m to optimize the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of the encapsulant material 300m. The present invention is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the encapsulant material 300m is different from the dielectric material 180m and the dielectric layer 180a.

[0119] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the encapsulation material 300m is planarized to form an insulating encapsulation 300 exposing the semiconductor device 200. For example, the insulating encapsulation 300 is disposed on the peeling layer 52 to laterally encapsulate the semiconductor device 200, such as Figure 5 As shown. In some embodiments, the encapsulant material 300m is planarized by a mechanical grinding process, a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process, an etching process, and / or a combination thereof. The etching process may include dry etching, wet etching, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, during the planarization process of the encapsulant material 300m, the protective layer 260 of the semiconductor device 200 is planarized to expose the connecting via 250 of the semiconductor device 200 in a touchable manner. In some embodiments, a portion of the connecting via 250 of the semiconductor device 200 is also slightly planarized. As shown Figure 5As shown, for example, the surface 300s1 of the insulating encapsulation body 300 is substantially flush with the surface 250s of the connection through hole 250 and the surface 260s of the protection layer 260 of each of the semiconductor devices 200. In some embodiments, the surface 300s1 of the insulating encapsulation body 300 and the surface 250s of the connection through hole 250 and the surface 260s of the protection layer 260 of the semiconductor device 200 are substantially coplanar with each other. The surface 250s of the connection through hole 250 and the surface 260s of the protection layer 260 of each semiconductor device 200 may be collectively referred to as the front surface FS of the semiconductor device 200. For example, in the direction Z, the front surface FS of the semiconductor device 200 is opposite to the bottom surface BS of the semiconductor device 200, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 In some embodiments, the insulating encapsulation body 300 encapsulates the sidewall of the semiconductor device 200 , wherein the connecting vias 250 of the semiconductor device 200 can be exposed by the insulating encapsulation body 300 in an accessible manner.

[0120] In some embodiments, after the planarization process, a cleaning step may be optionally performed to clean and remove residues generated from the planarization process. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the planarization process may be performed by any other suitable method.

[0121] Continue Figure 5 In some embodiments, after the insulating enclosure 300 is formed, a redistribution wiring structure 400 is formed on the insulating enclosure 300, and the redistribution wiring structure 400 is electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200. In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 400 is disposed on the surface 300s1 of the insulating enclosure 300 and the front surface FS of the semiconductor device 200 (for example, in physical contact with the surface 300s1 of the insulating enclosure 300 and the front surface FS of the semiconductor device 200). In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 400 is manufactured to be electrically connected to one or more connectors thereunder. In the present utility model, the connector may be a connecting through hole 250 of the semiconductor device 200 embedded in the insulating enclosure 300. In other words, the redistribution wiring structure 400 is electrically and physically connected to the connecting through hole 250 of the semiconductor device 200.

[0122] In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 400 includes a plurality of dielectric layers 402 and a plurality of metallization layers 404 stacked alternately, and the metallization layers 404 are electrically connected to the connection vias 250 of the semiconductor device 200 embedded in the insulating package 300. Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, the surface 250s of the connection via 250 of the semiconductor device 200 is in physical contact with the redistribution wiring structure 400. In such embodiments, the surface 250s of the connection via 250 of the semiconductor device 200 contacts the bottommost layer of the metallization layer 404 that is exposed by the bottommost layer of the dielectric layer 402. In some embodiments, the surface 250s of the connection via 250 of the semiconductor device 200 is partially covered by the bottommost layer of the dielectric layer 402.

[0123] The dielectric layer 402 may be PI, PBO, BCB, nitride (e.g., silicon nitride), oxide (e.g., silicon oxide), PSG, BSG, BPSG, combinations thereof, or similar materials that can be patterned using photolithography and / or etching processes. The etching process may include dry etching, wet etching, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the dielectric layer 402 is formed by appropriate manufacturing techniques such as spin coating, CVD, PECVD, or similar processes. In some embodiments, the material of the dielectric layer 402 is different from the material of the dielectric layer 180a. The metallization layer 404 may be made of a conductive material such as copper, copper alloy, aluminum, aluminum alloy, or a combination thereof formed by electroplating or deposition, which may be patterned using photolithography and etching processes. The etching process may include dry etching, wet etching, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the metallization layer 404 is a patterned copper layer or other suitable patterned metal layer. For example, the metallization layer 404 may be a metal line, a metal via, a metal pad, a metal trace, or the like. The number of dielectric layers 402 and metallization layers 404 is not limited in the present invention and can be selected and specified according to requirements and design layout / needs. In addition, multiple seed layers can be further included in the redistribution structure 400.

[0124] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, a plurality of conductive pillars 500 are formed above the redistribution wiring structure 400. For example, the conductive pillars 500 are electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive pillars 500 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-1 through the redistribution wiring structure 400, and some of the conductive pillars 500 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-2 through the redistribution wiring structure 400. In addition, some of the conductive pillars 500 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 100A through the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, the conductive pillars 500 are arranged along a cutting line (not shown) between two package structures PS1, but are not arranged on a cutting line (not shown) between two package structures PS1. The material of the conductive pillars 500 may include a metal material such as copper or a copper alloy. For simplicity, in Figure 5Only eight conductive pillars 500 are shown for illustration, but it should be noted that the conductive pillars 500 may be formed as more than eight; the present invention is not limited thereto. The number of conductive pillars 500 may be selected and specified according to requirements and design layout / needs, and is not limited thereto.

[0125] The conductive pillar 500 is, for example, disposed above the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 that is exposed by the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 (for example, physically contacting the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 that is exposed by the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400), such as Figure 5 The formation of the conductive pillar 500 may include, but is not limited to, forming another photoresist (not shown) on the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 exposed by the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400, wherein the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 exposed by the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 is used as a seed layer; patterning the another photoresist to form a photoresist that penetrates the another photoresist and exposes at least a plurality of portions of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 exposed by the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400. A plurality of openings (not shown) are formed in the plurality of openings, the plurality of openings corresponding to predetermined positions of the conductive pillars 500 (e.g., overlapping with predetermined positions of the conductive pillars 500); a conductive material (not shown) is formed in the plurality of openings (e.g., by plating (such as electroplating or chemical plating) or a similar process) to (physically) contact the exposed portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 that is exposed by the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 to form the conductive pillars 500; and the patterned photoresist is removed (e.g., by an acceptable ashing process and / or a photoresist stripping process (such as using oxygen plasma or the like)). Formation, patterning and materials of photoresist Figure 1 The formation, patterning and materials of the photoresist are similar or substantially the same and will not be described in detail herein.

[0126] continue Figure 5 In some embodiments, one or more semiconductor devices 100A are provided, and the one or more semiconductor devices 100A are bonded to the redistribution wiring structure 400. For the purpose of illustration, for simplicity, Figure 5 Only one semiconductor device 100A is shown in the figure; the present invention is not limited thereto. The number of semiconductor devices 100A may be one, two, three, or more than three, and the present invention is not limited thereto. The details of the semiconductor device 100A have been previously described in Figures 1 to 3In some embodiments, the semiconductor device 100A is picked up and placed on the redistribution structure 400. For example, Figure 5 As shown, semiconductor device 100A is arranged to overlap semiconductor device 200 (e.g., semiconductor devices 200-1 and 200-2) in vertical projection along direction Z. In this case, in the cross-sectional view, semiconductor device 100A extends from semiconductor device 200-1 to semiconductor device 200-2. In some embodiments, semiconductor device 100A is placed on redistribution structure 400 by a pick-and-placing process for bonding.

[0127] For example, the semiconductor device 100A is bonded to the redistribution wiring structure 400 by a bonding process, wherein the bonding process includes metal-to-metal bonding and dielectric-to-dielectric bonding. For example, the semiconductor device 100A is disposed on the redistribution wiring structure 400 (e.g., in physical contact with the redistribution wiring structure 400) and is electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, Figure 5 and Fig.11 As shown, the solder region 150 of the semiconductor device 100A and the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 abut against each other and are bonded by direct metal-to-metal bonding (eg, 'solder'-to-'copper' bonding). Figure 5 and Fig.11As shown, the topmost layers of dielectric layer 180a of semiconductor device 100A and dielectric layer 402 of redistribution wiring structure 400 abut against each other and are bonded by direct dielectric-to-dielectric bonding (e.g., 'organic dielectric'-to-'inorganic dielectric' bonding), for example. In such an embodiment, bonding interface IF1 (e.g., a metal-to-metal bonding interface such as 'solder'-to-'copper' bonding interface) and bonding interface IF2 (e.g., a dielectric-to-dielectric bonding interface such as 'organic dielectric'-to-'inorganic dielectric' bonding) coexist between semiconductor device 100A and redistribution wiring structure 400, which is considered to be the bonding interface between semiconductor device 100A and redistribution wiring structure 400. Due to the presence of dielectric layer 180a, the mismatched CTE is greatly suppressed, thereby ensuring the reliability of package structure PS1. The bonding process may include thermo-compression bonding (TCB) involving pressurization and heating steps; however, the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0128] It should be noted that the above bonding method is only an example and does not constitute a limitation. There may be an offset between the sidewall of the solder region 150 and the sidewall of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 located thereunder, see Fig.11 . Since one of the solder region 150 and the corresponding portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 may have a larger bonding surface than the other, even if misalignment occurs, direct metal-to-metal bonding can still be achieved, thereby ensuring the reliability of the electrical connection between the semiconductor device 100A and the redistribution wiring structure 400. Thus, for some embodiments, the dielectric layer 180a adjacent to the solder region 150 is bonded to a portion of each corresponding portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 (e.g., dielectric-to-metal bonding), or alternatively, the dielectric layer 402 adjacent to the corresponding portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 is bonded to a portion of each of the solder regions 150 (e.g., dielectric-to-metal bonding).

[0129] In some embodiments, the semiconductor device 100A is electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200 via the redistribution wiring structure 400 to provide electrical communication between the semiconductor devices 200. In other words, the semiconductor devices 200 are electrically coupled and electrically communicate with each other via the semiconductor device 100A. Figure 5As shown, for example, in the cross-sectional view, the semiconductor device 100A overlaps with two semiconductor devices 200. In other words, in a vertical projection along the direction Z onto the carrier 50, the semiconductor device 100A is positioned at an overlapped position with the semiconductor devices 200.

[0130] In some embodiments, the conductive pillar 500 is disposed above the redistribution wiring structure 400 before the semiconductor device 100A is bonded to the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some alternative embodiments, the conductive pillar 500 is disposed above the redistribution wiring structure 400 after the semiconductor device 100A is bonded to the redistribution wiring structure 400. The present invention is not limited thereto. Figure 5 As shown, for example, the overall thickness of the semiconductor device 100A is significantly greater than the thickness of the conductive pillar 500 .

[0131] Also refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, a pre-thinning process is performed on the semiconductor device 100A, for example, a pre-thinning process is performed on the back surface 110s2 of the semiconductor substrate 110. For example, the semiconductor substrate 110 of the semiconductor device 100A is thinned to have an active surface 110s1 and a back surface 110s2' opposite to the active surface 110s1 along the direction Z, wherein the back surface 110s2' is close to but cannot expose the pad 160 and the via 170. In some embodiments, after the pre-thinning, the thickness T110b of the semiconductor substrate 110 is greater than or substantially equal to 100 μm in the direction Z. In some embodiments, the thickness T110b of the semiconductor substrate 110 is in a range from about 25 μm to about 35 μm. In some embodiments, the overall thickness of the semiconductor device 100A is still (slightly) greater than the thickness of the conductive pillar 500. Alternatively, the overall thickness of the semiconductor device 100A may be (slightly) smaller than the thickness of the conductive pillar 500. Alternatively, the overall thickness of the semiconductor device 100A may be substantially equal to the thickness of the conductive pillar 500. The present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the pre-thinning process may include a chemical mechanical polishing process, a mechanical polishing process, a combination thereof, or other suitable removal processes.

[0132] refer to Figure 7 In some embodiments, an encapsulation material 600m is formed above the redistribution wiring structure 400 to encapsulate the semiconductor device 100A and the conductive pillars 500 and cover the redistribution wiring structure 400 exposed by the semiconductor device 100A and the conductive pillars 500. The semiconductor device 100A and the conductive pillars 500 are completely embedded in the encapsulation material 600m. Figure 7 The formation and material of the encapsulation material 600m are the same as those described above. Figure 4The formation and material of the encapsulant material 300m in the embodiment are similar or substantially the same, and are not described in detail herein. In one embodiment, the encapsulant material 600m is the same as the encapsulant material 300m. In another embodiment, the encapsulant material 600m is different from the encapsulant material 300m. In some embodiments, the encapsulant material 600m is different from the dielectric material 180m and the dielectric layer 180a. In some embodiments, the ratio of the CTE of the encapsulant material 600m to the CTE of the dielectric material 180m (or dielectric layer 180a) is in the range of about 25:70 to about 8:15.

[0133] refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the encapsulation material 600m is planarized to form an insulating encapsulation 600 exposing the semiconductor device 100A and the conductive pillar 500. For example, the insulating encapsulation 600 is disposed above the redistribution wiring structure 400 to laterally encapsulate the semiconductor device 100A and the conductive pillar 500. Figure 8 As shown. In some embodiments, the encapsulant material 600m is planarized by a mechanical polishing process, a chemical mechanical polishing process, an etching process, and / or a combination thereof. The etching process may include dry etching, wet etching, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, during the planarization process of the encapsulant material 600m, the semiconductor substrate 110 and the liner 160 of the semiconductor device 100A are planarized, and the via 170 of the semiconductor device 100A is exposed in an accessible manner. Figure 8 As shown, the semiconductor substrate 110 has an active surface 110s1 and a rear surface 110s3 opposite to the active surface 110s1 along the direction Z, wherein the rear surface 110s3 can expose the pad 160 and the via 170 in an accessible manner. In some embodiments, after the insulating encapsulation 600 is formed, the thickness T110 of the semiconductor substrate 110 is greater than or substantially equal to 25 μm in the direction Z. For example, the thickness T110 of the semiconductor substrate 110 is in the range of about 25 μm to about 35 μm. In some embodiments, the via 170 and / or the portion of the conductive pillar 500 of the semiconductor device 100A are also slightly planarized. As shown in FIG. Figure 8As shown, for example, the surface 600s1 of the insulating encapsulation 600 is substantially flush with the surface 160s2 of the liner 160, the surface 170s2 of the via 170, the rear surface 110s3 of the semiconductor substrate 110 of the semiconductor device 100A, and the surface 500s1 of the conductive pillar 500. In some embodiments, the surface 600s1 of the insulating encapsulation 600 is substantially coplanar with the surface 160s2 of the liner 160, the surface 170s2 of the via 170, the rear surface 110s3 of the semiconductor substrate 110 of the semiconductor device 100A, and the surface 500s1 of the conductive pillar 500. The surface 160s2 of the liner 160, the surface 170s2 of the via 170, and the rear surface 110s3 of the semiconductor substrate 110 of the semiconductor device 100A may be collectively referred to as the bottom surface BS of the semiconductor device 100A. In some embodiments, the insulating encapsulation body 600 encapsulates the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100A and the sidewalls of the conductive pillars 500 , wherein the vias 170 and the conductive pillars 500 of the semiconductor device 100A may be exposed in an accessible manner through the insulating encapsulation body 600 .

[0134] In some embodiments, after the planarization process, a cleaning step may be optionally performed to clean and remove residues generated from the planarization process. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the planarization process may be performed by any other suitable method.

[0135] refer to Fig. 9 In some embodiments, after the insulating enclosure 600 is formed, a redistribution wiring structure 700 is formed above the insulating enclosure 600, and the redistribution wiring structure 700 is electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 100A and the conductive pillar 500. In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 700 is disposed above (e.g., physically contacting) the surface 600s1 of the insulating enclosure 600, the surface 500s1 of the conductive pillar 500, and the bottom surface BS of the semiconductor device 100A (e.g., the surface 170s2 of the via 170). In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 700 is manufactured to be electrically connected to one or more connectors thereunder. In the present invention, the connectors may be the vias 170 and the conductive pillars 500 of the semiconductor device 100A embedded in the insulating enclosure 600. In other words, the redistribution wiring structure 700 is electrically and physically connected to the via 170 and the conductive pillar 500 of the semiconductor device 100A. Fig. 9As shown, for example, the semiconductor device 200 is electrically coupled to the redistribution wiring structure 700 through the conductive pillar 500. In some alternative embodiments, the semiconductor device 200 is electrically coupled to the redistribution wiring structure 700 through the semiconductor device 100A. The present invention is not limited thereto.

[0136] In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 700 includes a plurality of dielectric layers 702 and a plurality of metallization layers 704 alternately stacked, the metallization layers 704 being electrically connected to the vias 170 of the semiconductor device 100A and the conductive pillars 500 embedded in the insulating package 600. In such an embodiment, the surface 500s1 of the conductive pillar 500 and the surface 170s2 of the via 170 of the semiconductor device 100A contact the bottommost layer of the metallization layer 704 exposed by the bottommost layer of the dielectric layer 702. In some embodiments, the surface 500s1 of the conductive pillar 500 and the surface 170s2 of the via 170 of the semiconductor device 100A are partially covered by the bottommost layer of the dielectric layer 702. In addition, a plurality of seed layers may be further included in the redistribution wiring structure 700. The formation of the dielectric layer 702 and the metallization layer 704 in the redistribution wiring structure 700 and the materials thereof are similar to those described above. Figure 5 The formation and materials of the dielectric layer 402 and the metallization layer 404 in the medium-reinforcement wiring structure 400 are similar or substantially the same, and are not described in detail herein. In some embodiments, the material of the dielectric layer 702 is different from the material of the dielectric layer 180a.

[0137] Continue Fig. 9In some embodiments, after forming the redistribution wiring structure 700, a plurality of conductive terminals 800 are formed above the redistribution wiring structure 700. For example, the conductive terminals 800 are disposed on the redistribution wiring structure 700 (e.g., in physical contact with the redistribution wiring structure 700) and are electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 700. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the conductive pillars 500 through the redistribution wiring structure 700. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 100A through the redistribution wiring structure 700. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-1 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, some of the conductive pillars 500, and the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-1 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, the semiconductor device 100A, and the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-2 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, some of the conductive pillars 500, and the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-2 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, the semiconductor device 100A, and the redistribution wiring structure 400.

[0138] For example, each conductive terminal 800 includes a via hole 802 and a solder area 804 disposed thereon. In this case, the solder area 804 is physically connected to the via hole 802 and electrically connected to the via hole 802, respectively. However, the utility model is not limited thereto; alternatively, each conductive terminal 800 includes only a via hole 802. Alternatively, each conductive terminal 800 includes only a solder area 804. For example, the via hole 802 of the conductive terminal 800 includes a microbump, a metal column, a controlled collapse chip connection (C4) bump (for example, it may have a size of but not limited to about 80 μm), a ball grid array (BGA) bump (for example, it may have a size of but not limited to about 400 μm), a bump formed by electroless nickel immersion gold technology (ENIG), a bump formed by electroless nickel palladium immersion gold (ENEPIG), etc. The utility model is not limited thereto. The solder area 804 includes, for example, a solder cap. The material of the solder region 800 may include a eutectic solder or a non-eutectic solder. The solder may include lead or lead-free, and may include Sn-Ag, Sn-Cu, Sn-Ag-Cu, or the like. For example, the material of the solder region 800 may include a lead-free (LF) solder material (e.g., a Sn-based material), and may or may not have additional impurities (e.g., Ni, Bi, Sb, Ag, Cu, Au, or the like). The number of conductive terminals 800 is not limited to the drawings of the embodiments, and may be selected and specified according to requirements and design layout / needs. In addition to the size, the formation of the via 802 and the solder region 804 is the same as described above. Figure 3 The formation of the via hole 140 and the solder area 150 are similar or substantially the same, and will not be repeated here.

[0139] refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In some embodiments, after the conductive terminal 800 is formed, the carrier 50 is peeled off from the peeling layer 52 thereon, so that the semiconductor device 200 and the insulating encapsulation body 300 are separated from the carrier 50. In the embodiment where the peeling layer 52 is an LTHC release layer, ultraviolet laser irradiation can be used to promote the peeling of the carrier 50 from the semiconductor device 200 and the insulating encapsulation body 300. In some embodiments, the semiconductor device 200 (e.g., the bottom surface BS) and the insulating encapsulation body 300 (e.g., the surface 300s2 relative to the surface 300s1 in the direction Z) are exposed, such as Fig.10 As shown. Fig.10 As shown, for example, the surface 300s2 of the insulating encapsulation 300 is substantially flush with the bottom surface BS of the semiconductor device 200. In this case, the surface 300s2 of the insulating encapsulation 300 is substantially coplanar with the bottom surface BS of the semiconductor device 200.

[0140] In some embodiments, before peeling off the carrier 50 and the peeling layer 52, a cutting (single-forming) process is first performed to cut a plurality of interconnected package structures PS1 into individual and separate package structures PS1. In one embodiment, the cutting (single-forming) process is a wafer cutting process including mechanical blade sawing or laser cutting. The utility model is not limited to this. At this point, the production of the package structure PS1 is completed. In some embodiments, the height of the conductive column 500 (measured in the direction Z) is in the range from about 80 μm to about 100 μm, although other suitable thicknesses may be used instead.

[0141] In some embodiments, before peeling off the peeling layer 52 and the carrier 50, Fig. 9 The entire structure depicted in the figure together with the carrier 50 is flipped (turned upside down), wherein the conductive terminal 800 is placed in a holding device (not shown) to fix the package structure PS1 before separating the carrier 50 and the peeling layer 52, and then the carrier 50 is separated from the semiconductor device 200 and the insulating encapsulation body 300. In some embodiments, the holding device may include a polymer film, wherein the conductive terminal 800 is installed in the polymer film. For example, the material of the polymer film may include a polymer film having elasticity sufficient to enable the conductive terminal 800 to be embedded therein. In some embodiments, the holding device may be a parafilm or a film made of other suitable soft polymer materials, etc. In some alternative embodiments, the holding device may be an adhesive tape, a carrier film, or a suction pad. The utility model is not limited to this.

[0142] like Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, in the package structure PS1, the semiconductor device 100A is mounted on the redistribution wiring structure 400 and electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400, wherein the sidewall 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a is substantially vertical. In some embodiments, the sidewall 110SW of the semiconductor substrate 110, the sidewall 120SW of the interconnect structure 120, and the sidewall 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a are substantially aligned with each other, such as Fig.11 In other words, the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100A included in the package structure PS1 are substantially vertical sidewalls. However, the present invention is not limited thereto; alternatively, the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100A included in the package structure PS1 may be curved sidewalls. As a non-limiting example, Fig.12As shown, the sidewall 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a is curved (e.g., non-planar). For example, after the semiconductor device 100A is mounted on the redistribution wiring structure 400 and electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400, the dielectric layer 180a further includes an extended portion 180ap, wherein the sidewall 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a protrudes from the sidewall 110SW of the semiconductor substrate 110 and the sidewall 120SW of the interconnect structure 120 with a lateral dimension W1, as shown in FIG. Fig.12 In such a case, the ratio of the thickness T1 (of the dielectric layer 180a overlapping the interconnect structure 120) to the lateral dimension W1 (of the extension portion 180ap) is between about 1:1 and about 1:4.

[0143] In some alternative embodiments in which the topmost layer of dielectric layer 402 of redistribution wiring structure 400 is omitted, after semiconductor device 100A is mounted above redistribution wiring structure 400, dielectric layer 180a of semiconductor device 100A may further extend onto and laterally cover the sidewalls of the topmost layer of metallization layer 404 exposed from dielectric layer 402 of redistribution wiring structure 400, wherein sidewalls 180aSW of dielectric layer 180a may be substantially vertical, for example, as shown in FIG. Fig.13 In some embodiments, the sidewall 110SW of the semiconductor substrate 110, the sidewall 120SW of the interconnect structure 120, and the sidewall 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a are substantially aligned with each other. Fig.13 As shown. In other words, the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100A included in the packaging structure are substantially vertical sidewalls. However, the present invention is not limited to this; in a further alternative embodiment in which the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 is omitted, after the semiconductor device 100A is installed above the redistribution wiring structure 400, the dielectric layer 180a of the semiconductor device 100A can further extend to the sidewalls of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 exposed by the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 and laterally cover the sidewalls of the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 exposed by the metallization layer 404, wherein the sidewalls 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a can be substantially arc-shaped (e.g., non-planar), for example, as Fig.14 In some embodiments, after the semiconductor device 100A is mounted on the redistribution wiring structure 400 and electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400, the dielectric layer 180a further includes an extension portion 180ap, wherein the sidewall 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a protrudes from the sidewall 110SW of the semiconductor substrate 110 and the sidewall 120SW of the interconnect structure 120 with a lateral dimension W1, as shown in FIG. Fig.14In such a case, the ratio of the thickness T1 (of the dielectric layer 180a overlapping the interconnect structure 120) to the lateral dimension W1 (of the extension portion 180ap) is between about 1:1 and about 1:4.

Figure 20 to Figure 22 Schematic cross-sectional views respectively illustrate various architectures of the bonding between the semiconductor device and the redistribution wiring structure included in the packaging structure according to some alternative embodiments of the utility model. In some embodiments, Figures 19 to 22 A schematic enlarged cross-sectional view of Fig.18 The area outlined in the dashed box B is shown. Devices similar to the above devices or with substantially the same reference numerals, as well as certain details or descriptions of the same devices (eg, formation and materials) and their relationships (eg, relative positioning structure and electrical connections) are not repeated here.

[0145] See also Fig.15 In some embodiments, a wafer 1000 is provided. Details of the wafer 1000 are described in Figure 1 In some embodiments, a pre-cutting process (or step) is performed along the scribe line SL of the wafer 1000, so that a plurality of trenches TH are formed on the front surface of the wafer 1000 and penetrate the interconnect structure 120 and partially penetrate the semiconductor substrate 110. In some embodiments, the pre-cutting process is performed by a mechanical cutting process using a blade. In other words, the pre-cutting process is a contact cutting process. For example, Fig.15 As shown, the bottom surface of the trench TH is located below the bottom surface of the liner 160 and the via 170. Alternatively, the bottom surface of the trench TH is substantially coplanar with the bottom surface of the via 170. In some embodiments, each trench TH has a planar sidewall. Fig.15 As shown, the sidewalls of the trench TH are substantially vertical plane sidewalls. However, the present invention is not limited thereto; alternatively, the sidewalls of the trench TH may be substantially inclined plane sidewalls. In some embodiments, each trench TH has an arc-shaped bottom surface. The bottom surface of the trench TH is a convex surface relative to the plane where the rear surface 110s2 is located. However, the present invention is not limited thereto; alternatively, the bottom surface of the trench TH may be substantially flat and have a rounded corner connected to the sidewall.

[0146] Before the pre-cutting process, in some embodiments, the wafer 1000 is placed on a holding device (not shown). The rear surface 110s2 of the semiconductor substrate 110 of the wafer 1000 is attached to the holding device, so that the wafer 1000 is fixed during the pre-cutting process. For example, the holding device can be an adhesive tape, a carrier film, or a suction pad. The utility model is not limited thereto.

[0147] refer to Fig.16 In some embodiments, a dielectric material 180m is formed over the wafer 1000 to fill the trench TH. For example, the dielectric material 180m is disposed over the interconnect structure 120 (i.e., the sidewalls exposed by the trench TH and the top surface exposed by the via 140 and the solder region 150) (e.g., in physical contact with the interconnect structure 120) and laterally covers the conductive pad 130 and the via 140. In such a case, the solder region 150 is not in contact with the dielectric material 180m, and the trench TH is filled with the dielectric material 180m, as shown in FIG. Fig.16 As shown. Alternatively, the dielectric material 180m may further partially cover the solder area 150, wherein the solder area 150 may still be exposed in a touchable manner through the dielectric material 180m. For example, the dielectric material 180m is formed on the wafer 1000 by a compression molding process or a similar process. However, the utility model is not limited thereto. The details of the dielectric material 180m are described in Figure 2 The description is omitted here.

[0148] Also refer to Fig.16 and Fig.17In some embodiments, a cutting (or singulation) process is sequentially performed on the trench TH along the cutting line SL to cut through the dielectric material 180m, the interconnect structure 120 and the semiconductor substrate 110, thereby forming a plurality of individual and separated semiconductor devices 100B corresponding to the device region R1, wherein each semiconductor device 100B includes a semiconductor substrate 110, an interconnect structure 120, a plurality of conductive pads 130, a plurality of vias 140, a plurality of solder regions 150, a plurality of pads 160, a plurality of vias 170 and a plurality of dielectric layers 180a, 180b. In such a case, the dielectric material 180m is divided into a plurality of discrete segments, each of which includes one dielectric layer 180a (also referred to as a horizontal dielectric layer above the top surface of the interconnect structure 120) and two dielectric layers 180b (also referred to as vertical dielectric layers below the top surface of the interconnect structure 120) included in the individual and separate semiconductor devices 100B corresponding to the device region R1, wherein the dielectric layers 180b are respectively connected to two opposite ends of the surface of the dielectric layer 180a. In other words, the dielectric layer 180a and the dielectric layer 180b are formed integrally. The dielectric layers 180a and 180b can be referred to as organic dielectric layers of the semiconductor device 100B. The details of the dielectric layers 180a and 180b are the same as those described above. Figure 2 The details of the dielectric material 180m described in are similar or substantially the same and are not repeated here.

[0149] In some embodiments, the thickness T180a of the dielectric layer 180a (along the direction Z) is in the range of about 3 μm to about 15 μm, although other suitable thicknesses may be used instead. In some embodiments, the thickness T180b1 of the dielectric layer 180b (along the direction Z) is in the range of about 30 μm to about 50 μm, although other suitable thicknesses may be used instead. In some embodiments, the width W180b of the dielectric layer 180b is in the range of about 15 μm to about 35 μm, but other suitable thicknesses may also be used. In one embodiment, the cutting (or singulation) process is a wafer cutting process including mechanical blade sawing or laser cutting. The utility model is not limited to this.

[0150] like Fig.17As shown, for each semiconductor device 100B, the semiconductor substrate 110 has a sidewall in a stepped form, the sidewall having a first sidewall S1 and a second sidewall S2 that is retracted from the first sidewall S1, wherein the first sidewall S1 is substantially aligned with the sidewalls of the dielectric layer 180a and the sidewalls of the dielectric layer 180b, and the second sidewall S2 is substantially aligned with the sidewalls of the interconnect structure 120, for example, the dielectric layer 180b covers the second sidewall S2 and the interconnect structure 120. In the present invention, for each semiconductor device 100B, the sidewalls of the dielectric layer 180a, the sidewalls of the dielectric layer 180b, and the sidewalls of the semiconductor substrate 110 (for example, the first sidewall S1) together constitute the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100B. In such a case, the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100B are substantially vertical sidewalls. In some embodiments, each semiconductor device 100B is referred to as a bridge device, a bridge die, a bridge chip, or a bridge, providing electrical communication between two or more other semiconductor devices (or dies / chips) in the package structure PS2.

[0151] refer to Fig.18 In some embodiments, the semiconductor device 100B is used to perform Figures 4 to 10 In some embodiments, the package structure PS2 includes two or more semiconductor devices 200, an insulating package 300, a redistribution wiring structure 400, a semiconductor device 100B, a plurality of conductive pillars 500, an insulating package 600, a redistribution wiring structure 700, and a plurality of conductive terminals 800. The details of the semiconductor device 200, the insulating package 300, the redistribution wiring structure 400, the conductive pillars 500, the insulating package 600, the redistribution wiring structure 700, and the conductive terminals 800 are described in detail. Figures 4 to 10 The details of the semiconductor device 100B are described in Figures 15 to 17, and will not be repeated here. For example, the semiconductor device 200 is laterally encapsulated in the insulating enclosure 300, wherein the bottom surface BS of the semiconductor device 200 is exposed by the insulating enclosure 300 in a touchable manner. In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 400 is electrically connected to the semiconductor device 200 through a metallization layer 404 embedded in the dielectric layer 402. In this case, the via 140 is connected to the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 through the solder region 150, and the semiconductor device 100B is bonded to the redistribution wiring structure 400 and electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400, wherein the semiconductor devices 200 electrically communicate with each other through the semiconductor device 100B. In some embodiments, the conductive pillars 500 stand on the redistribution wiring structure 400 and are electrically connected thereto, and are arranged next to the semiconductor device 100B. For example, some of the conductive pillars 500 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-1 through the redistribution wiring structure 400, and some of the conductive pillars 500 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-2 through the redistribution wiring structure 400. In addition, some of the conductive pillars 500 may be electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 100B through the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, the conductive pillars 500 and the semiconductor device 100B are laterally encapsulated in the insulating enclosure 600. In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 700 is disposed above the conductive pillars 500 and the semiconductor device 100B and is electrically connected to the conductive pillars 500 and the semiconductor device 100B, and the conductive terminals 800 are disposed above the redistribution wiring structure 700 and are electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 700. For example, the redistribution wiring structure 700 is disposed between the conductive terminals 800 and the insulating enclosure 600. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-1 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, some of the conductive pillars 500, and the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-2 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, some of the conductive pillars 500, and the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 100B through the redistribution wiring structure 700 and some of the conductive pillars 500. In some embodiments, the material of the dielectric layers 402, 702 is different from the material of the dielectric layer 180a. Due to the dielectric layer 180a, the mismatch of CTE is greatly suppressed. In addition, due to the dielectric layer 180b, the adhesion between the semiconductor device 100B and the insulating encapsulation body 600 is further improved. Therefore, the reliability of the package structure PS2 is ensured.

[0152] like Fig.18 and Fig.19For example, the semiconductor device 100B includes substantially vertical sidewalls, wherein the substantially vertical sidewalls include substantially vertical sidewalls 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a and substantially vertical sidewalls 180bSW of the dielectric layer 180b, wherein a portion of the semiconductor substrate 110 (corresponding to the first sidewall S1) included in the semiconductor device 100B is subjected to the step of performing Figure 5 In some cases, a portion of the semiconductor substrate 110 (corresponding to the second sidewall S2), the liner 160 and / or the via 170 included in the semiconductor device 100B are also partially removed.

[0153] In some alternative embodiments, the semiconductor device 100B may include curved sidewalls, including curved sidewalls 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a and substantially vertical sidewalls 180bSW of the dielectric layer 180b, such as Fig. 20 For example, after the semiconductor device 100B is mounted on the redistribution wiring structure 400 and electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400, the dielectric layer 180a further includes an extension portion 180ap, wherein the sidewall 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a protrudes from the sidewall 180bSW of the dielectric layer 180b with a lateral dimension W2, as shown in FIG. Fig. 20 In such a case, the ratio of the thickness T2 of the dielectric layer 180a to the lateral dimension W2 of the extension portion 180ap is between about 1:1 and about 1:4.

[0154] However, the present invention is not limited thereto; alternatively, when the topmost layer of dielectric layer 402 of redistribution wiring structure 400 is omitted and after semiconductor device 100B is mounted on redistribution wiring structure 400, dielectric layer 180a of semiconductor device 100A may further extend onto and laterally cover the sidewalls of the topmost layer of metallization layer 404 exposed from dielectric layer 402 of redistribution wiring structure 400. In one non-limiting example, sidewall 180aSW of dielectric layer 180a may be substantially vertical, wherein the sidewalls of semiconductor device 100B (including sidewall 180aSW and sidewall 180bSW) are substantially vertical, for example, as shown in FIG. Fig.21 In other non-limiting examples, the sidewall 180aSW of the dielectric layer 180a may be substantially curved when it protrudes (e.g., with a lateral dimension W2) from the sidewall 180bSW of the dielectric layer 180b, wherein the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100B (including the sidewall 180aSW and the sidewall 180bSW) are curved, for example, Fig. 22 shown.

Fig.28 Shown in Fig. 27 FIG. 4 is a schematic enlarged cross-sectional view of the architecture of the bonding between the semiconductor device and the redistribution wiring structure included in the package structure PS3 depicted in FIG. Figure 29 to Figure 31 Schematic cross-sectional views respectively show various structures of the connection between the semiconductor device and the redistribution wiring structure included in the packaging structure according to alternative embodiments of the present utility model. In some embodiments, Figure 28 to Figure 31 A schematic enlarged cross-sectional view of Fig. 27 The area outlined in the dashed box C is shown. Devices similar to the above devices or with substantially the same reference numerals, as well as certain details or descriptions of the same devices (eg, formation and materials) and their relationships (eg, relative positioning structure and electrical connections) are not repeated here.

[0156] See also Fig.23 In some embodiments, a wafer 2000 is provided. It should be understood that the wafer 2000 is similar to the wafer 1000, except that the wafer 2000 is provided without a solder region pre-set thereon. In some embodiments, the wafer 2000 includes a semiconductor substrate 110, an interconnect structure 120, a plurality of conductive pads 130, a plurality of vias 140, a plurality of liners 160, and a plurality of vias 170. The details of the semiconductor substrate 110, the interconnect structure 120, the conductive pads 130, the vias 140, the liners 160, and the vias 170 are described in detail in Figure 1 It has been described in , so I will not repeat it here. For example, Fig.23 As shown, the interconnect structure 120 is electrically connected to the semiconductor device (if any) / conducting hole 170 and the conductive pad 130 and is disposed between the semiconductor device (if any) / conducting hole 170 and the conductive pad 130, and the conductive pad 130 is electrically connected to the interconnect structure 120 and the conductive hole 140 and is disposed between the interconnect structure 120 and the conductive hole 140. In some embodiments, the wafer 2000 includes a plurality of device regions R2 arranged in an array along the direction X and the direction Y, wherein each device region R2 is a predetermined position of a semiconductor device (die or chip) to be formed subsequently. For example, along the dicing line SL (such as Figure 23 to Figure 26 Before a wafer sawing or cutting process is performed on the wafer 2000 (as shown by the dotted lines in FIG. 1 ), the device regions R2 of the wafer 2000 are physically connected to each other. Fig.23In the figure, for the sake of illustration and simplicity, only four device regions R2 are shown and only six vias 140 and four vias 170 are shown in each device region R2, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The number of device regions R2, vias 140 and vias 170 is not limited to the present invention and can be selected and specified according to requirements and design layout / needs.

[0157] refer to Fig.24 In some embodiments, a dielectric material 180m is formed on the chip 2000 to cover the conductive pad 130, the via 140, and the interconnect structure 120 exposed by the conductive pad 130 and the via 140. For example, the dielectric material 180m is disposed on the interconnect structure 120 (e.g., in physical contact with the interconnect structure 120) and buries the conductive pad 130 and the via 140. In other words, the conductive pad 130 and the via 140 cannot be exposed in a touchable manner through the dielectric material 180m. For example, the dielectric material 180m is formed on the chip 2000 by a compression molding process, an over-molding process, or the like. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. The details of the dielectric material 180m have been described in detail. Figure 2 The description is omitted here.

[0158] refer to Fig.25 In some embodiments, a planarization process is performed on the dielectric material 180m to form a dielectric material 180m' that exposes the via 140 in a tangible manner. During the planarization process (e.g., a CMP process), the illustrated top surface of the dielectric material 180m' is above the illustrated top surface of the via 140, wherein the via 140 is tangibly exposed by the dielectric material 180m' due to over-dishing during the CMP process. For such an architecture, the height difference D2 between the illustrated top surface of the dielectric material 180m' and the illustrated top surface of the via 140 ranges from about 0 μm to about 0.04 μm, but other suitable thicknesses may be used instead. For example, the height difference D2 may range from 0.001 μm to 0.01 μm.

[0159] Also refer to Fig.25 and Fig.26In some embodiments, a sawing (or singulation) process is sequentially performed along the sawing lines SL to cut through the dielectric material 180m', the interconnect structure 120, and the semiconductor substrate 110, thereby forming a plurality of individual and separated semiconductor devices 100C corresponding to the device region R2, wherein each semiconductor device 100C includes the semiconductor substrate 110, the interconnect structure 120, a plurality of conductive pads 130, a plurality of vias 140, a plurality of liners 160, a plurality of vias 170, and a dielectric layer 180c. In such a case, the dielectric material 180m' is divided into a plurality of discrete segments, such as the dielectric layer 180c included in the plurality of individual and separated semiconductor devices 100C corresponding to the device region R2. In some embodiments, the thickness T180c of the dielectric layer 180c (along the direction Z) is about 1 μm to about 20 μm, although other suitable thicknesses may be used instead. The dielectric layer 180c may be referred to as an organic dielectric layer of the semiconductor device 100C. The details of the dielectric layer 180c are similar to those described above. Figure 2 The details of the dielectric material 180m described in are similar or substantially the same and are not repeated here.

[0160] In one embodiment, the cutting (or singulation) process is a wafer cutting process including mechanical blade sawing or laser cutting. The present invention is not limited thereto. Fig.26 As shown, for each semiconductor device 100C, the sidewalls of the dielectric layer 180c, the sidewalls of the interconnect structure 120, and the sidewalls of the semiconductor substrate 110 are substantially aligned in the direction Z. In the present invention, for each semiconductor device 100C, the sidewalls of the dielectric layer 180c, the sidewalls of the interconnect structure 120, and the sidewalls of the semiconductor substrate 110 together constitute the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100C. In such a case, the sidewall of the semiconductor device 100C is a substantially vertical sidewall. In some embodiments, each semiconductor device 100C is referred to as a bridge device, a bridge die, a bridge chip, or a bridge, and provides electrical communication between two or more other semiconductor devices (or die / chips) in the package structure PS3.

[0161] refer to Fig. 27 In some embodiments, the semiconductor device 100C is used to perform Figures 4 to 10 The process of forming the package structure PS3 is to form the package structure PS3. In some embodiments, the package structure PS3 includes two or more semiconductor devices 200, an insulating package 300, a redistribution wiring structure 400, a semiconductor device 100C, a plurality of conductive pillars 500, an insulating package 600, a redistribution wiring structure 700, and a plurality of conductive terminals 800. The details of the semiconductor device 200, the insulating package 300, the redistribution wiring structure 400, the conductive pillars 500, the insulating package 600, the redistribution wiring structure 700, and the conductive terminals 800 are described in detail. Figures 4 to 10The details of the semiconductor device 100C are described in Figure 23 to Figure 26 , and will not be repeated here. For example, the semiconductor device 200 is laterally encapsulated in the insulating enclosure 300, wherein the bottom surface BS of the semiconductor device 200 is exposed by the insulating enclosure 300 in a touchable manner. In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 400 is electrically connected to the semiconductor device 200 via a metallization layer 404 embedded in the dielectric layer 402. In this case, the semiconductor device 100C is bonded to the redistribution wiring structure 400 and electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400 by directly connecting the conductive via 140 to (e.g., physically / physically contacting) the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400, wherein the semiconductor devices 200 electrically communicate with each other through the semiconductor device 100C. In some embodiments, the conductive pillars 500 stand on and are electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400, and are arranged next to the semiconductor device 100C. For example, some of the conductive pillars 500 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-1 through the redistribution wiring structure 400, and some of the conductive pillars 500 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-2 through the redistribution wiring structure 400. In addition, some of the conductive pillars 500 may be electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 100C through the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, the conductive pillars 500 and the semiconductor device 100C are laterally encapsulated in the insulating enclosure 600. In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 700 is disposed above the conductive pillars 500 and the semiconductor device 100C and is electrically connected to the conductive pillars 500 and the semiconductor device 100C, and the conductive terminals 800 are disposed above the redistribution wiring structure 700 and are electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 700. For example, the redistribution wiring structure 700 is disposed between the conductive terminals 800 and the insulating enclosure 600. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-1 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, some of the conductive pillars 500, and the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-2 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, some of the conductive pillars 500, and the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 100C through the redistribution wiring structure 700 and some of the conductive pillars 500. In some embodiments, the material of the dielectric layers 402, 702 is different from the material in the dielectric layer 180c.

[0162] For example, the semiconductor device 100C is bonded to the redistribution wiring structure 400 by a bonding process, wherein the bonding process includes metal-to-metal bonding and dielectric-to-dielectric bonding. For example, the semiconductor device 100C is disposed on the redistribution wiring structure 400 (e.g., in physical contact with the redistribution wiring structure 400) and is electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, Fig. 27 As shown, the via 140 of the semiconductor device 100C and the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 abut against each other and are bonded by direct metal-to-metal bonding (eg, 'copper'-to-'copper' bonding). Fig. 27 As shown, the dielectric layer 180c of the semiconductor device 100C and the topmost layer of the dielectric layer 402 of the redistribution wiring structure 400 abut against each other and are bonded by direct dielectric-to-dielectric bonding (e.g., 'organic dielectric' to 'inorganic dielectric' bonding). In such an embodiment, a bonding interface IF3 (e.g., a metal-to-metal bonding interface such as a 'copper' to 'copper' bonding interface) and a bonding interface IF2 (e.g., a dielectric-to-dielectric bonding interface such as an 'organic dielectric' to 'inorganic dielectric' bonding interface) coexist between the semiconductor device 100C and the redistribution wiring structure 400, which is considered to be the bonding interface between the semiconductor device 100C and the redistribution wiring structure 400. Due to the presence of the dielectric layer 180c, the mismatched CTE is greatly suppressed, thereby ensuring the reliability of the package structure PS3. It should be noted that the above-mentioned bonding method is only an example and does not constitute a limitation. There may be an offset between the sidewalls of the via 140 and the sidewalls of the portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 located therebelow, see Fig. 27 . Since one of the corresponding portions of the topmost layer of the via 140 and the metallization layer 404 may have a larger bonding surface than the other, direct metal-to-metal bonding may be achieved even if misalignment occurs, thereby ensuring the reliability of the electrical connection between the semiconductor device 100C and the redistribution wiring structure 400. Thus, for some embodiments, the dielectric layer 180c adjacent to the via 140 is bonded to a portion of each corresponding portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 (e.g., dielectric-to-metal bonding), or alternatively, the dielectric layer 402 adjacent to the corresponding portion of the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 is bonded to a portion of each of the vias 140 (e.g., dielectric-to-metal bonding).

[0163] like Fig. 27 and Fig.28 As shown, in the package structure PS3, the semiconductor device 100C is mounted on the redistribution wiring structure 400 and electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400, wherein the sidewall 180cSW of the dielectric layer 180c is substantially vertical. In some embodiments, the sidewall 110SW of the semiconductor substrate 110, the sidewall 120SW of the interconnect structure 120, and the sidewall 180cSW of the dielectric layer 180c are substantially aligned with each other, such as Fig.28In other words, the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100C included in the package structure PS3 are substantially vertical sidewalls. However, the present invention is not limited thereto; alternatively, the sidewalls of the semiconductor device 100C included in the package structure PS3 may be curved sidewalls. As a non-limiting example, Fig.29 As shown, the sidewall 180cSW of the dielectric layer 180c is curved (e.g., non-planar). For example, after the semiconductor device 100C is mounted on the redistribution wiring structure 400 and electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400, the dielectric layer 180c further includes an extension portion 180cp, wherein the sidewall 180cSW of the dielectric layer 180c protrudes from the sidewall 110SW of the semiconductor substrate 110 and the sidewall 120SW of the interconnect structure 120 with a lateral dimension W3, as shown in FIG.

Devices similar to the above devices or with substantially the same reference numerals, as well as certain details or descriptions of the same devices (eg, formation and materials) and their relationships (eg, relative positioning structure and electrical connections) are not repeated here.

[0166] See also Fig.32 In some embodiments, a wafer 2000 is provided. Details of the wafer 2000 are described in Fig.23 In some embodiments, a pre-cutting process (or step) is performed along the scribe line SL of the wafer 2000, so that a plurality of trenches TH are formed on the front surface of the wafer 1000 and penetrate the interconnect structure 120 and partially penetrate the semiconductor substrate 110. In some embodiments, the pre-cutting process is performed by a mechanical cutting process using a blade. In other words, the pre-cutting process is a contact cutting process. For example, Fig.32 As shown, the bottom surface of the trench TH is located below the bottom surface of the liner 160 and the via 170. Alternatively, the bottom surface of the trench TH is substantially coplanar with the bottom surface of the via 170. In some embodiments, each trench TH has a planar sidewall. Fig.32As shown, the sidewalls of the trench TH are substantially vertical plane sidewalls. However, the present invention is not limited thereto; alternatively, the sidewalls of the trench TH may be substantially inclined plane sidewalls. In some embodiments, each trench TH has an arc-shaped bottom surface. The bottom surface of the trench TH is a convex surface relative to the plane where the rear surface 110s2 is located. However, the present invention is not limited thereto; alternatively, the bottom surface of the trench TH may be substantially flat and have a rounded corner connected to the sidewall.

[0167] Before the pre-cutting process, in some embodiments, the wafer 2000 is placed on a holding device (not shown). The rear surface 110s2 of the semiconductor substrate 110 of the wafer 2000 is attached to the holding device, so that the wafer 2000 is fixed during the pre-cutting process. For example, the holding device can be an adhesive tape, a carrier film, or a suction pad. The utility model is not limited thereto.

For example, the dielectric material 180m is disposed above the interconnect structure 120 (i.e., the sidewall exposed by the trench TH and the top surface exposed by the via 140) (e.g., in physical contact with the interconnect structure 120) and buries the conductive pad 130 and the via 140. In such a case, the conductive pad 130 and the via 140 cannot be exposed in an accessible manner through the dielectric material 180m, and the trench TH is filled with the dielectric material 180m, as shown in FIG. Fig.32 As shown. For example, the dielectric material 180m is formed on the wafer 2000 by a compression molding process, an overmolding process, or a similar process.

[0169] refer to Fig.34 In some embodiments, a planarization process is performed on the dielectric material 180m to form a dielectric material 180m' that exposes the via 140 in a tangible manner. During the planarization process (e.g., a CMP process), the illustrated top surface of the dielectric material 180m' is above the illustrated top surface of the via 140, wherein the via 140 is tangibly exposed by the dielectric material 180m' due to over-recessing during the CMP process. For such an architecture, the height difference D2 between the illustrated top surface of the dielectric material 180m' and the illustrated top surface of the via 140 ranges from about 0 μm to about 0.04 μm, but other suitable thicknesses may be used instead. For example, the height difference D2 may be in the range of 0.001 μm to 0.01 μm.

[0170] Also refer to Fig.34 and Fig.35 In some embodiments, a cutting (or singulation) process is sequentially performed on the trench TH along the cutting line SL to cut through the dielectric material 180m', the interconnect structure 120 and the semiconductor substrate 110, thereby forming a plurality of individual and separated semiconductor devices 100D corresponding to the device region R2, wherein each semiconductor device 100D includes a semiconductor substrate 110, an interconnect structure 120, a plurality of conductive pads 130, a plurality of vias 140, a plurality of pads 160, a plurality of vias 170 and a plurality of dielectric layers 180b, 180c.

In other words, the dielectric layers 180b and 180c are integrally formed. The dielectric layers 180b and 180c can be referred to as organic dielectric layers of the semiconductor device 100D. The details of the dielectric layers 180b and 180c are the same as those described above. Figure 2 The details of the dielectric material 180m described in are similar or substantially the same and are not repeated here.

[0171] In some embodiments, the thickness T180c of the dielectric layer 180c (along the direction Z) is in the range of about 1 μm to about 20 μm, although other suitable thicknesses may be used instead. In some embodiments, the thickness T180b1 of the dielectric layer 180b (along the direction Z) is in the range of about 30 μm to about 50 μm, although other suitable thicknesses may be used instead. In some embodiments, the width W180b of the dielectric layer 180b is approximately in the range of 15 μm to 30 μm, but other suitable thicknesses may also be used. In one embodiment, the cutting (or singulation) process is a wafer cutting process including mechanical blade sawing or laser cutting. The present invention is not limited to this.

For example, the semiconductor device 200 is laterally encapsulated in the insulating enclosure 300, wherein the bottom surface BS of the semiconductor device 200 is exposed by the insulating enclosure 300 in a touchable manner. In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 400 is electrically connected to the semiconductor device 200 via a metallization layer 404 embedded in the dielectric layer 402. In this case, the semiconductor device 100D is bonded to the redistribution wiring structure 400 and electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 400 by directly connecting the via 140 to (e.g., physically / physically contacting) the topmost layer of the metallization layer 404 of the redistribution wiring structure 400, wherein the semiconductor devices 200 electrically communicate with each other through the semiconductor device 100D.

In addition, some of the conductive pillars 500 may be electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 100D through the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, the conductive pillars 500 and the semiconductor device 100D are laterally encapsulated in the insulating enclosure 600. In some embodiments, the redistribution wiring structure 700 is disposed above the conductive pillars 500 and the semiconductor device 100D and is electrically connected to the conductive pillars 500 and the semiconductor device 100D, and the conductive terminals 800 are disposed above the redistribution wiring structure 700 and are electrically connected to the redistribution wiring structure 700.

In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-1 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, some of the conductive pillars 500, and the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 200-2 through the redistribution wiring structure 700, some of the conductive pillars 500, and the redistribution wiring structure 400. In some embodiments, some of the conductive terminals 800 are electrically coupled to the semiconductor device 100D through the redistribution wiring structure 700 and some of the conductive pillars 500. In some embodiments, the material of the dielectric layers 402, 702 is different from the material in the dielectric layer 180c. Due to the dielectric layer 180c, the mismatch of CTE is greatly suppressed. In addition, due to the dielectric layer 180b, the adhesion between the semiconductor device 100D and the insulating encapsulation body 600 is further improved. Therefore, the reliability of the package structure PS4 is ensured.
