Detailed Implementation
[0038] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0039] As described in the background section, the coherence and gate fidelity of qubits in superconducting quantum chips are highly sensitive to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Therefore, achieving effective electromagnetic shielding is crucial for the performance and reliability of superconducting qubits. Traditional packaging methods for superconducting quantum chips typically use packaging boxes and external magnetic shielding barrels from dilution coolers for EMI shielding. While this can reduce external interference to some extent, it cannot effectively shield against EMI within the chip device itself.
[0040] Based on this, the embodiments of this application provide a packaging method, packaging structure and electronic device for a superconducting quantum chip, which effectively solves the existing technical problems. It not only realizes the electromagnetic shielding function of the superconducting quantum chip, but also realizes the welding interval control between the superconducting quantum chip and the control chip, and realizes the hermetic packaging of the superconducting quantum chip, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the superconducting quantum chip.
[0041] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solutions provided in this application are as follows, in specific combination with... Figures 1 to 14 The technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail.
[0042] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating a packaging method for a superconducting quantum chip provided in this application embodiment. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a packaging structure for a superconducting quantum chip provided in an embodiment of this application. The packaging method for the superconducting quantum chip includes:
[0043] S1. A superconducting quantum chip 100 and a control chip 200 are provided. One surface of the superconducting quantum chip 100 includes a functional circuit region A1 and an edge sealing region A2 surrounding the functional circuit region A1. That is, after the superconducting quantum chip 100 and the control chip 200 are soldered together, the surface of the superconducting quantum chip 100 facing the control chip 200 includes the functional circuit region A1 and the edge sealing region A2.
[0044] S2. A sealing ring 311 is formed on the edge sealing area A2, surrounding the functional circuit area A1.
[0045] S3. A surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 is deposited on the exposed surface of the sealing ring 311, wherein the sealing ring 311 and the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 are combined to form an electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310.
[0046] S4. The superconducting quantum chip 100 and the control chip 200 are welded and fixed relative to each other, forming a sealed cavity 400 between the superconducting quantum chip 100, the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310, and the control chip 200. The welding of the superconducting quantum chip 100 and the control chip 200 involves welding and fixing the solder joint at the functional circuit region A1 of the superconducting quantum chip 100 to the corresponding solder joint of the control chip 200, placing them within the sealed cavity 400; and welding and fixing the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310 of the superconducting quantum chip 100 to the shielding portion 210 of the control chip 200. The solder joint at the functional circuit region A1 is welded and fixed to the corresponding solder joint of the control chip 200, placing them within the sealed cavity 400. Figure 2 The welding post 500 illustrates the welding relationship between the solder joint at functional circuit area A1 and the solder joint of the control chip 200. The welding post 500 is located within the sealed cavity 400. The shielding portion 210 of the control chip 200 includes at least a portion of the ground electrode on the side of the control chip 200 facing the superconducting quantum chip 100, which is welded and fixed to the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310.
[0047] In some embodiments, the solder joints of the superconducting quantum chip 100 (i.e., the solder joints at functional circuit region A1) and the solder joints of the control chip 200 provided in this application can be a soldering area used only to illustrate the soldering connection. When soldering the solder joints at functional circuit region A1 and the solder joints of the control chip 200, solder can be placed at the solder joints at functional circuit region A1, or solder can be placed at both the solder joints at functional circuit region A1 and the solder joints of the control chip 200. Then, the solder joints at functional circuit region A1 and the solder joints of the control chip 200 are aligned and soldered to form a solder pillar 500. Alternatively, the solder joints at functional circuit region A1 and the solder joints of the control chip 200 can not only be a soldering area used to illustrate the soldering connection, but also be substantially provided with solder. During the soldering process, the solder joints at functional circuit region A1 and the solder joints of the control chip 200 can be directly soldered to form a solder pillar 500. This application does not impose specific limitations on this. Optionally, the bonding solder can be In (indium), which is soft and can reduce damage to the chip during soldering.
[0048] Understandably, the technical solution provided in this application forms an electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310 around the functional circuit region A1 on the superconducting quantum chip 100, thereby forming an electromagnetic shielding structure around the functional circuit of the superconducting quantum chip 100 and realizing the electromagnetic shielding function of the superconducting quantum chip 100. Furthermore, a surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 is fabricated on both sides of the sealing ring 311 and on the surface facing away from the superconducting quantum chip 100. Based on the electromagnetic shielding achieved by the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310, the bonding strength between the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310 and the superconducting quantum chip 100 is further improved, thereby enhancing the reliability of the packaging structure. Furthermore, a sealed cavity 400 encapsulating the functional circuit area is formed between the superconducting quantum chip 100, the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310, and the control chip 200. This not only enables control of the welding interval between the superconducting quantum chip 100 and the control chip 200 through the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310, but also achieves hermetic encapsulation of the superconducting quantum chip 100. This prevents oxidation and chemical corrosion of the superconducting material of the superconducting quantum chip 100 in low-temperature environments, improves the long-term stability of the superconducting quantum chip 100 in the dilution refrigerator, enhances the low-temperature performance of the superconducting quantum chip 100, and improves the performance and reliability of the superconducting quantum chip 100.
[0049] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, Figure 3 A flowchart illustrating another packaging method for a superconducting quantum chip provided in this application embodiment. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of another packaging structure for a superconducting quantum chip provided in an embodiment of this application. After forming the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 in step S3, and before welding and fixing the superconducting quantum chip 100 and the control chip 200 relative to each other in step S4, the packaging method further includes:
[0050] S03. An electromagnetic shielding connection portion 320 is formed at the edge sealing area A2, penetrating the superconducting quantum chip 100.
[0051] S04. A back electromagnetic shielding layer 330 is formed on the surface of the superconducting quantum chip 100 opposite to the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310. The electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310 and the back electromagnetic shielding layer 330 are connected through the electromagnetic shielding connection portion 320. Specifically, the back electromagnetic shielding layer 330 and the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310 are formed around the superconducting quantum chip 100, and are connected through the electromagnetic shielding connection portion 320 penetrating the superconducting quantum chip 100. This forms an electromagnetic shielding structure around the functional circuitry of the superconducting quantum chip 100, further improving the electromagnetic shielding function of the packaged superconducting quantum chip 100.
[0052] The following is combined Figures 5 to 13 The encapsulation method provided in the embodiments of this application will be described in more detail. Figures 5 to 9 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the corresponding structure for some of the steps.
[0053] As shown in the figure, corresponding to step S2, a sealing ring 311 surrounding the functional circuit area A1 is formed on the edge sealing area A2. In some embodiments, the formation of the sealing ring 311 surrounding the functional circuit area A1 on the edge sealing area A2 provided in this application embodiment includes: forming a sealing ring 311 made of photoresist on the edge sealing area A2 and surrounding the functional circuit area A1, which improves the performance of the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310 itself and further improves the reliability of the packaging structure of the superconducting quantum chip 100. The sealing ring 311 provided in this application embodiment can be made of negative photoresist, such as SU-8, AZ5214, etc. Firstly, the sealing ring 311 formed by the photoresist can achieve a sealing function due to its dense cross-linked structure. After UV exposure, photoresist forms a three-dimensional cross-linked network structure (epoxy cross-linking). The resulting sealing ring 311, formed after curing, has extremely low porosity, effectively isolating moisture, oxygen, and contaminants. Therefore, the photoresist-formed sealing ring 311 ensures excellent airtightness of the sealed cavity 400. This prevents oxidation and deterioration of the functional circuitry due to contact with the atmospheric environment during the storage phase after the superconducting quantum chip 100 is packaged, thus avoiding changes in operating parameters, performance degradation, and lifespan reduction of the superconducting quantum chip 100. Simultaneously, the excellent airtightness of the sealed cavity 400 composed of the photoresist-made sealing ring 311 also prevents oxidation and chemical corrosion of the superconducting materials (such as niobium or aluminum) of the superconducting quantum chip 100 at low temperatures, improving the long-term stability of the superconducting quantum chip 100 in dilution refrigerators (mK-level temperatures). Secondly, the photoresist-formed sealing ring 311 exhibits low hygroscopicity and high environmental adaptability. The photoresist has a low moisture absorption rate (less than 0.1%), allowing it to maintain stable mechanical and dielectric properties in humid environments and avoiding performance degradation caused by moisture penetration. Combined with the photoresist's thermal stability (heat resistance temperature greater than 200℃), the sealing ring 311 can withstand thermal cycling shocks, reducing the risk of interface cracking caused by thermal stress. Thirdly, the photoresist-formed sealing ring 311 is compatible with low-temperature processes. The photoresist has a low curing shrinkage rate (less than 5%), and by optimizing the baking process, stress accumulation can be further reduced. This mitigates the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the photoresist-formed sealing ring 311 and the superconducting quantum chip 100 during chip bonding, preventing seal failure due to temperature changes.
[0054] The process of forming a photoresist-based sealing ring 311 around the functional circuit area A1 on the edge sealing area A2, as provided in this embodiment, specifically includes:
[0055] Step S21: A first photoresist layer is spin-coated onto one side of the functional circuit region A1 of the superconducting quantum chip 100, and then subjected to a first baking. A negative photoresist such as SU-8 or AZ5214 is selected. The spin-coating equipment is used at 1000-5000 rpm for 60-180 seconds, followed by a resting period of 5-10 minutes to eliminate air bubbles, thus forming a first photoresist layer on the surface of the functional circuit region A1 of the superconducting quantum chip 100. The first photoresist layer is then subjected to a first baking, which can be a soft baking process, specifically baking on a hot plate at 75-95°C for 180-300 seconds.
[0056] Step S22: Expose the first photoresist layer and perform a second baking. Use an LED (light-emitting diode) light source, align with a contact mask, or use a laser direct-write device to expose the first photoresist layer. The exposure dose can be 200-500 mJ / cm². 2 The LED light source is ultraviolet light, such as with a wavelength of 365nm. Then, the first photoresist layer is baked a second time. This second baking is a post-baking process and can be done in stages. Specifically, the second baking involves first baking with a hot plate at 65-95℃ for 60-180 seconds, followed by baking with a hot plate at 95-115℃ for 300-600 seconds.
[0057] Step S23: Develop the first photoresist layer using a developing solution to form a photoresist ring. The photoresist ring is located on the edge sealing area A2 and surrounds the functional circuit area A1, and then undergoes a third baking. The superconducting quantum chip 100 with the first photoresist layer is immersed in the developing solution for 90-180 seconds, and then alternately rinsed with isopropanol until no residue remains, completing the development process. The developing solution can be MR-Dev600. Then, the resulting photoresist ring undergoes a third baking, which is a hard baking, i.e., baking at 180-250℃ for 900-1800 seconds. This three-baking method enhances the mechanical strength of the prepared photoresist ring.
[0058] Step S24: Immerse the superconducting quantum chip in an intermediate solvent to replace the residual developer on the superconducting quantum chip. After rinsing the superconducting quantum chip 100, immerse it in the intermediate solvent for 10-15 minutes. The intermediate solvent can be ethanol or acetone, thereby replacing the residual developer. This replacement step can be performed once or repeated multiple times. That is, one replacement of the residual developer takes 10-15 minutes, and this replacement step can be repeated multiple times, such as three times, to ensure complete replacement of the residual developer.
[0059] Step S25: Perform a critical point drying process on the superconducting quantum chip 100 to form the sealing ring 311, thereby removing residual solution from the superconducting quantum chip 100. Specifically, transfer the superconducting quantum chip 100 to a high-pressure drying chamber and slowly inject liquid CO2 (purity not less than 99.99%), immersing the superconducting quantum chip 100 in the liquid CO2. The CO2 flow rate can be controlled at 0.5 L / min to avoid mechanical impact on the superconducting quantum chip 100 and structural damage. This step can be repeated multiple times. The immersion time of the superconducting quantum chip 100 in liquid CO2 can be controlled to 5 minutes each time. Then, the liquid CO2 is removed and re-injected according to the above steps. This step is repeated 5-8 times to ensure that the residual solution concentration is less than 0.1%.
[0060] like Figure 6 As shown, corresponding to step S3, a surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 is deposited on the exposed surface of the sealing ring 311. The surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 covers the surface of the sealing ring 311 facing away from the superconducting quantum chip 100, and also covers the sidewalls of the sealing ring 311 near and away from the functional circuit region A1. The sealing ring 311 and the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 together form an electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310. That is, after the sealing ring 311 is prepared, a surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 needs to be covered on the surface of the sealing ring 311 facing away from the superconducting quantum chip 100 and on its sidewalls. The deposition of the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 on the exposed surface of the sealing ring 311, as provided in this embodiment, includes:
[0061] Step S31: A surface mask layer is formed on the side of the superconducting quantum chip 100 where the sealing ring 311 is formed. The surface mask layer exposes the surface and sidewalls of the sealing ring 311. The sidewalls of the sealing ring 311 include the sidewalls near the functional circuit region A1 and the sidewalls away from the functional circuit region A1. Optionally, the surface mask layer provided in this embodiment can be formed using a photolithography process. Specifically, it may include: Step S261: A second photoresist layer is spin-coated on the side of the superconducting quantum chip 100 where the sealing ring 311 is formed, and a first baking is performed. A photoresist such as AZ5214 is selected. The spin-coating equipment rotates at 2000-3000 rpm for 60-180 seconds, and then rests for 5-10 minutes to eliminate air bubbles. Then, a second photoresist layer is spin-coated on the side of the superconducting quantum chip 100 where the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310 is formed, and the second photoresist layer covers the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310. Then, the second photoresist layer undergoes a first baking process, which can be a soft baking process, specifically baking on a hot plate at 75-95°C for 180-300 seconds. Step S262: The second photoresist layer is exposed and then baked a second time. An LED light source is selected, and the second photoresist layer is exposed using a contact mask or a laser direct-write device. The exposure dose can be 200-500 mJ / cm². 2 The LED light source is ultraviolet light, such as with a wavelength of 365nm. The second photoresist layer is then baked a second time, which is a post-baking process and can be done in stages. Specifically, the second baking involves first baking at 65-95℃ for 60-180 seconds, followed by baking at 95-115℃ for 300-600 seconds. Step S263: The second photoresist layer is developed using a developer to form a surface mask layer. This surface mask layer exposes the surface and sidewalls of the sealing ring 311, and is then baked a third time. The superconducting quantum chip 100 with the second photoresist layer is immersed in the developer for 90-180 seconds, and then alternately rinsed with isopropanol until no residue remains, completing the development process. The developer can be MR-Dev600 developer. The resulting surface mask layer is then baked a third time, which is a hard bake, specifically baking at 180-250℃ for 900-1800 seconds. This three-baking process enhances the mechanical strength of the prepared surface mask layer.
[0062] Step S32: Control the superconducting quantum chip 100 to rotate along its rotation axis perpendicular to its plane, and / or control the superconducting quantum chip 100 to swing in a direction perpendicular to its plane, while simultaneously depositing a surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 on the exposed surface of the sealing ring 311 based on the surface mask layer. Specifically, after obtaining the superconducting quantum chip 100 carrying the surface mask layer as described above, the corresponding sample of the superconducting quantum chip 100 can first be cleaned with ultrasound, such as by cleaning with acetone and anhydrous ethanol for 15 minutes each, and then dried with nitrogen to ensure that the sample surface is free of particulate contamination. Then, the sample is coated to form the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312.
[0063] In one embodiment, the coating process can employ electron beam thermal evaporation. Before coating, the evaporation chamber of the coating equipment can be evacuated to reduce gas molecule interference during the preparation of the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312, ensuring high coating purity. Then, a high-purity metal target (≥99.99%) such as aluminum is placed in a water-cooled copper crucible to avoid contamination. The electron gun voltage is set to 10-15kV, the current to 150-300A, and the focused spot diameter is controlled at 5-10mm on the target surface to achieve localized high-temperature evaporation. The sample is then fixed on a rotatable and / or tiltable tray, and the angle is continuously adjusted at a frequency of 0.1-1Hz using a servo motor. For example, the rotation of the superconducting quantum chip 100 along a plane perpendicular to its location can be controlled. The superconducting quantum chip 100 can be controlled to rotate along an axis perpendicular to its plane (the rotation can be a periodic oscillation from -45° to 45°); or, the superconducting quantum chip 100 can be controlled to rotate along a rotation axis perpendicular to its plane while simultaneously controlling the superconducting quantum chip 100 to oscillate along a direction perpendicular to its plane, thereby compensating for the "shadowing effect" that occurs during coating, ensuring the uniformity of the coating, and improving the thickness uniformity of each region of the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312; finally, the evaporation rate is adjusted by the electron beam power (e.g., it can be 0.3-0.5 nm / s), and the thickness of the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 is monitored in real time by a quartz crystal oscillator, and the electron gun is automatically shut off after the target thickness is reached.
[0064] Alternatively, in another embodiment, the coating process can employ magnetron sputtering evaporation. Before coating, the coating equipment can be evacuated to below 5 × 10⁻³ Pa, and argon gas (99.999% purity) can be introduced as the working gas, maintaining a pressure of 0.5-1.0 Pa. Then, the target material is installed; specifically, niobium, tantalum, titanium nitride, or other targets (purity ≥ 99.99%) can be fixed on the magnetron sputtering cathode, with a target-to-substrate distance set to 50-80 mm. Next, plasma excitation and control of the superconducting quantum chip 100 are performed, i.e., a DC power supply (voltage 300-500V, current 1-3A) is applied to generate high-density plasma, and argon ions bombard the target material. Metal atoms are sputtered; simultaneously, the superconducting quantum chip 100 is controlled to rotate along a spin axis perpendicular to its plane (rotation can be 5-10 rpm); alternatively, the superconducting quantum chip 100 can be controlled to oscillate along a direction perpendicular to its plane (oscillation can be a periodic oscillation from -45° to 45°); alternatively, the superconducting quantum chip 100 can be controlled to rotate along a spin axis perpendicular to its plane while simultaneously oscillating along a direction perpendicular to its plane; finally, the sputtering rate is controlled at 0.2-0.4 nm / s, and monitored online using an optical interferometer or ellipsometer until the thickness of the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 reaches the target thickness. Optionally, the thickness of the surface electromagnetic shielding layer 312 provided in this embodiment can be 150-500 nm.
[0065] Step S33: Remove the surface mask layer. Optionally, the surface mask layer can be removed using a lift-off process, wherein the superconducting quantum chip 100 after the surface electromagnetic shielding layer has been deposited is placed in an NMP solution, heated in a water bath to a set temperature (e.g., 80°C) and immersed for 1-2 hours to perform a lift-off operation, then the superconducting quantum chip 100 is immersed in an isopropanol solution for 5-10 minutes, then immersed in ultrapure water for 5-10 minutes, and finally the surface of the superconducting quantum chip 100 is dried with nitrogen gas.
[0066] like Figure 7 As shown, corresponding to step S03, an electromagnetic shielding connection portion 320 penetrating the superconducting quantum chip 100 is formed at the edge sealing region A2. Optionally, the formation of the electromagnetic shielding connection portion 320 penetrating the superconducting quantum chip 100 at the edge sealing region A2 provided in this application embodiment specifically includes:
[0067] Step S031: A protective film layer is formed on the side of the superconducting quantum chip 100 where the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310 is formed, and a connection mask layer is formed on the side of the superconducting quantum chip 100 away from the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310. In some embodiments, both the protective film layer and the connection mask layer can be formed using photolithography, that is, a third photoresist layer is formed on the side of the superconducting quantum chip 100 where the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310 is formed, and the third photoresist layer is a protective film layer covering the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310. Furthermore, a fourth photoresist layer is spin-coated on the side of the superconducting quantum chip 100 opposite to the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310, and then soft-baked. The fourth photoresist layer can be made of SU-8 series negative photoresist or PMMA positive photoresist. The spin-coating equipment is used at 500-3000 rpm for 30-60 seconds to achieve a thickness of 10-50 micrometers. After resting for 5-10 minutes to eliminate air bubbles, it is then baked on a hot plate at 90-120℃ for 180-300 seconds. The fourth photoresist layer is then exposed using a stepped temperature increase (e.g., at a heating rate of 1℃ / min) to 95℃ for baking. Electron beam or DUV (deep ultraviolet) lithography can be used for exposure, with an electron beam exposure dose of 300-500 μC / cm². 2 The accelerating voltage is 50-100kV; and the DUV lithography exposure wavelength can be 248nm, with an exposure metering of 100-200mJ / cm2. Finally, the fourth photoresist layer is developed using a developer to form a connecting mask layer, and then baked at 150℃ for 30 minutes. When using SU-8 series photoresist, the developer can be PGMEA (propylene glycol methyl ether acetate), and the development time can be 3-5 minutes; when using positive photoresist, the developer can be TMAH (which can be a 2.38% concentration developer), and the development time can be 60-90 seconds.
[0068] Step S032: Based on the connection mask layer, the superconducting quantum chip 100 is etched to form connection holes, which expose the connection portion of the electromagnetic shielding sealing ring 310. The etching of the connection holes can be carried out using different processes depending on the thickness of the superconducting quantum chip 100. For example, when etching shallow holes (depth-to-width ratio can be less than 5:1), reactive ion etching can be used, where the gas can be selected as SF6 (flow rate of 20-50 sccm) and O2 (flow rate of 5-10 sccm), the power is 100-200W, the gas pressure is 5-10 mTorr, and the etching rate is 200-500 nm / min. For deep vias (with an aspect ratio greater than 10:1), deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) can be used, such as the Bosch process. This involves using an etching gas to etch the superconducting quantum chip 100, and a passivating gas to form a polymeric passivation compound on the sidewalls of the etched via. This process is repeated cyclically. The etching gas can be SF6 (flow rate 50 sccm, power 150 W, cycle time 5 s), and the passivating gas can be C4F8 (flow rate 80 sccm, power 200 W, cycle time 3 s). During the via etching process, a laser interferometer or OES (Optical Emission Spectroscopy) can be used to monitor the etching depth in real time.
