In recent years, the growing demand for miniaturization, higher speeds, wider bandwidths, and lower power consumption and latency has also led to a growing need for packaging technologies for smaller, more innovative semiconductor dies.

[0027] Continue to refer to Figure 1A An interconnect structure 120 is formed on a semiconductor substrate 110. In some embodiments, the interconnect structure 120 includes a plurality of dielectric layers 121, a plurality of conductive patterns 122, and a plurality of etch stop layers 123. In some embodiments, see... Figure 1A Multiple dielectric layers 121 and multiple etch stop layers 123 are alternately formed along a direction Z perpendicular to the top surface of the semiconductor substrate 110, and multiple conductive patterns 122 are embedded in the multiple dielectric layers 121 and multiple etch stop layers 123.

In other words, the interconnect structure 120 provides a redistribution function for routing, repositioning, or reassigning the electrical connection paths of the plurality of devices 112.
[0028] Additionally, a sealing ring 130 with a through-connection structure 120 is formed. For example...

It should be understood that the number and configuration of the plurality of dielectric layers 121, the plurality of etch stop layers 123, and the plurality of conductive patterns 122 are merely exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0029] Continue to refer to Figure 1A A passivation layer 140 is formed on the interconnect structure 120. The material of the passivation layer 140 may include silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, undoped silicon glass (USG), etc. Furthermore, refer to... Figure 1A A redistribution layer 150 is formed, penetrating the passivation layer 140, to be electrically connected to the interconnect structure 120. Specifically, such as Figure 1A As shown, the redistribution layer 150 has a plurality of vias V penetrating the passivation layer 140 for electrical connection to the interconnect structure 120. In some embodiments, the redistribution layer 150 includes a plurality of conductive patterns, such as conductive pads and / or conductive wiring.

In one embodiment, the copper doping concentration is about 0.5%.
[0030] refer to Figure 1BA gap-filling dielectric layer 160 is formed on the passivation layer 140, and the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 covers the redistribution layer 150. In some embodiments, the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 fills the gaps between a plurality of conductive patterns of the redistribution layer 150 to provide a substantially flat top surface. In some embodiments, a planarization process is performed on the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 to provide a substantially flat top surface. The planarization process may include performing a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. In some embodiments, the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 is formed by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) (e.g., plasma-enhanced CVD, high-density plasma CVD (HDPCVD), or metal-organic CVD (MOCVD)) or physical vapor deposition (PVD). In some embodiments, the material of the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 may include a dielectric material, such as SiO, SiN, or SiON.
[0031] After forming the gap-filling dielectric layer 160, a capacitor structure 170 is formed on the gap-filling dielectric layer 160. The following will refer to... Figures 1C to 1F The formation of capacitor structure 170 is described in detail.
[0032] refer to Figure 1C A dielectric material layer DL1 and a conductive material layer CL1 are sequentially formed on the interstitial filling dielectric layer 160. In some embodiments, the dielectric material layer DL1 is made of a high dielectric constant (high k) dielectric material (e.g., a dielectric constant (k) in the range of about 10 to about 20) comprising oxides or other suitable materials including Li, Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Sc, Y, Zr, Hf, Al, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu. In some embodiments, the dielectric material layer DL1 is formed by performing a plasma-enhanced CVD process, a low-pressure CVD process, an atomic layer deposition (ALD) process, a molecular beam deposition (MBD) process, or other suitable processes. In some embodiments, the conductive material layer CL1 is made of a metal.

In some embodiments, a conductive material layer CL1 is formed by performing a deposition process (e.g., CVD, PVD, or ALD).
[0033] refer to Figure 1DThe dielectric material layer DL1 and the conductive material layer CL1 are patterned using photolithography and etching and / or any suitable patterning process to form dielectric layer 171 and electrode layer 172. In some embodiments, the dielectric material layer DL1 and the conductive material layer CL1 are patterned in the same patterning process. In some alternative embodiments, the dielectric material layer DL1 and the conductive material layer CL1 are patterned in different patterning processes. Figure 1D As shown, the sidewalls of the electrode layer 172 are substantially aligned with the sidewalls of the underlying dielectric layer 171.
[0034] refer to Figure 1E A dielectric material layer DL2, a conductive material layer CL2, and a dielectric material layer DL3 are sequentially formed on the gap-filling dielectric layer 160. In some embodiments, the dielectric material layer DL2, the conductive material layer CL2, and the dielectric material layer DL3 are conformally formed on the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 and cover the dielectric layer 171 and the electrode layer 172, as shown below. Figure 1E As shown. The materials and processes used to form dielectric material layers DL2 and DL3 can be similar to or the same as those used to form dielectric material layer DL1, and will not be described further here. The materials and processes used to form conductive material layer CL2 can be similar to or the same as those used to form conductive material layer CL1, and will not be described further here. The material of dielectric material layer DL2 can be the same as or different from the material of dielectric material layer DL1. Furthermore, the material of dielectric material layer DL3 can be the same as or different from the material of dielectric material layer DL2. And, the material of conductive material layer CL2 can be the same as or different from the material of conductive material layer CL1.
[0035] refer to Figure 1F Subsequently, the dielectric material layer DL2, the conductive material layer CL2, and the dielectric material layer DL3 are patterned using photolithography and etching and / or any suitable patterning process to form a dielectric layer 173, an electrode layer 174, and a dielectric layer 175, thereby forming a capacitor structure 170. In some embodiments, the conductive material layer CL2 and the dielectric layer DL3 are patterned in the same patterning process. In some alternative embodiments, the conductive material layer CL2 and the dielectric layer DL3 are patterned in different patterning processes. Further, in some embodiments, the dielectric material layer DL2 and the conductive material layer CL2 are patterned using different patterning processes. Figure 1F As shown, electrode layer 174 partially overlaps with electrode layer 172. Dielectric layer 173 may be located between electrode layer 174 and electrode layer 172. The sidewalls of electrode layer 172 can be separated from electrode layer 174 by dielectric layer 173. In addition, dielectric layer 175 has a sidewall substantially aligned with the sidewall of the underlying electrode layer 174, and the sidewall of dielectric layer 173 intersects with the sidewall of the overlying electrode layer 174, but is substantially aligned with the sidewall of the underlying electrode layer 172.
[0036] like Figure 1F As shown, the capacitor structure 170 includes a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor, comprising an electrode layer 172 as a bottom electrode layer, a dielectric layer 173 as a capacitor dielectric layer, and an electrode layer 174 as a top electrode layer. It should be understood that the number and configuration of the electrode layers and dielectric layers in the capacitor structure 170 are merely exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention. That is, the process for forming the capacitor structure 170 described above is only one method for forming a MIM capacitor, and other methods are fully included within the scope of this embodiment.
[0037] refer to Figure 1G A passivation layer 180 is formed on the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 and covers the capacitor structure 170. The material of the passivation layer 180 may include silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, undoped silicon glass (USG), etc.
[0038] Continue to refer to Figure 1G An opening O is formed through the passivation layer 180 and the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 to expose a portion of the redistribution layer 150. In some embodiments, the opening O in the passivation layer 180 and the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 is formed by any acceptable patterning process. For example, a photoresist is formed on and patterned over the passivation layer 180, and one or more etching processes can be used to remove the portions of the passivation layer 180 and the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 where the opening O needs to be formed. Note that the exposed portion of the redistribution layer 150 is for performing chip probe (CP) testing and / or wafer acceptance testing (WAT). However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, the formation of the opening O is omitted in the method of manufacturing the semiconductor die 100.
[0039] refer to Figure 1H An etch stop layer 182 and a dielectric layer 192 are sequentially formed over the passivation layer 140. In some embodiments, the dielectric layer 192 is configured to be hybrid-bonded or fusion-bonded to another dielectric layer. In such embodiments, the dielectric layer 192 is referred to as a bonding dielectric layer. In some embodiments, the dielectric layer 192 comprises an oxide-based layer. In some embodiments, the dielectric layer 192 comprises silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, or any suitable material configured for hybrid-bonding or fusion-bonding.
[0040] refer to Figure 1IA plurality of bonding conductors 194 are formed to electrically connect to the redistribution layer 150 and the capacitor structure 170. The material of the bonding conductors 194 may be or include copper or other suitable conductive materials. Furthermore, in some embodiments, each bonding conductor 194 may optionally include a barrier layer (not shown) on its outer surface to prevent atomic diffusion between the multiple elements. For example, the material of the barrier layer may be or include tungsten (W), titanium nitride (TiN), titanium (Ti), tantalum (Ta), tantalum nitride (TaN), combinations thereof, or other suitable materials. Additionally, as... Figure 1I As shown, multiple bonding conductors 194 are formed at a level higher than the weight wiring layer 150.
[0041] like Figure 1I As shown, due to the formation of the etch stop layer 182, the plurality of bonding conductors 194 may each include a via 194b and a conductive pad 194a wider than the via 194b. Although in Figure 1I In this embodiment, the bonding conductor 194 is formed having two parts (i.e., a via 194b and a conductive pad 194a), but the present invention is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, the bonding conductor 194 may be formed as a single part with continuous sidewalls.
[0042] In detail, such as Figure 1IAs shown, the conductive pad 194a of each bonding conductor 194 is formed to be embedded in and in physical contact with the dielectric layer 192. A via 194b of one of the bonding conductors 194 is formed to pass through the passivation layer 180, dielectric layer 173, electrode layer 172, dielectric layer 171, and gap-filling dielectric layer 160 and is electrically connected to the redistribution layer 150. A via 194b of another of the bonding conductors 194 is formed to pass through the passivation layer 180, dielectric layer 173, electrode layer 174, dielectric layer 175, and gap-filling dielectric layer 160 and is electrically connected to the redistribution layer 150. In other words, one of the bonding conductors 194 serves as an electrode connector electrically connected to the electrode layer 172 of the capacitor structure 170, while another of the bonding conductors 194 serves as another electrode connector electrically connected to the electrode layer 174 of the capacitor structure 170. In other words, the electrode layer 172 of the capacitor structure 170 is in electrical and physical contact with the sidewall of one of the plurality of bonding conductors 194 (e.g., the sidewall of the via 194b), and the electrode layer 174 of the capacitor structure 170 is in electrical and physical contact with the sidewall of another of the plurality of bonding conductors 194 (e.g., the sidewall of the via 194b). From another perspective, in some embodiments, the capacitor structure 170 laterally surrounds the sidewalls of some of the bonding conductors 194. It should be noted that because the plurality of bonding conductors 194 made of copper are used as the plurality of electrode connections of the capacitor structure 170, the junction resistance between the capacitor structure 170 and the plurality of electrode connections can be reduced. This improves the capacitance efficiency of the capacitor structure 170. In some embodiments, the junction resistance of capacitor structure 170 is less than the resistance of passivation layer 180, gap-filling dielectric layer 160, passivation layer 140, or dielectric layer 121, and greater than or substantially equal to the resistance of bonding conductor 194, redistribution layer 150, or conductive pattern 122.
[0043] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the top surface of the bonding conductor 194 (i.e., the top surface of the conductive pad 194a) is substantially coplanar with the top surface of the dielectric layer 192, such as... Figure 1I As shown. It is worth noting that the top surfaces of the bonding conductor 194 and the dielectric layer 192 are highly coplanar, which is beneficial for subsequent processes (e.g., bonding processes).
[0044] Continue to refer to Figure 1I The monomerization process is performed along multiple scribe lines to form multiple monomerized semiconductor dies 100. It should be noted that the above manufacturing process is part of a wafer-level packaging process, although... Figure 1IThe illustration shows a monomerized semiconductor die 100, but those skilled in the art will understand that multiple semiconductor dies 100 are obtained after the monomerization process. In some embodiments, the monomerization process includes a dicing or sawing process. In subsequent processes, the monomerized semiconductor die 100 may, for example, be disposed on a packaging substrate or other components as needed.
[0045] Although the steps of the method are illustrated and described as a series of actions or events, it should be understood that the illustrated order of these actions or events should not be construed as limiting. Furthermore, not all processes or steps shown are necessary to implement one or more embodiments of this invention.
[0046] like Figure 1I As shown, capacitor structure 170 comprises a five-layer structure (i.e., IMIMI). However, this invention is not limited thereto. It should be understood that... Figure 1I The structure shown is for illustrative purposes only; more than five layers are possible to increase the capacitance of the capacitor, or fewer layers are possible depending on product requirements. The following will refer to... Figure 2 Other embodiments are described.
[0047] Figure 2 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of a semiconductor die 200 according to some alternative embodiments of the present invention. Figure 2 The semiconductor die 200 shown is Figure 1I The semiconductor die 100 shown is similar; therefore, the same reference numerals are used to refer to the same or similar parts, and their detailed description will be omitted here. The differences between semiconductor die 200 and semiconductor die 100 will be described below.
[0048] refer to Figure 2 In the semiconductor die 200, the capacitor structure 270 includes an electrode layer 176 and a dielectric layer 177 sequentially formed on a dielectric layer 175. That is, the capacitor structure 270 includes a seven-layer structure (i.e., 1MIMIMI). More specifically, as... Figure 2 As shown, in the semiconductor die 200, electrode layer 176 and electrode layer 174 partially overlap. Figure 2 As shown, in the semiconductor die 200, the dielectric layer 175 can be located between the electrode layer 176 and the electrode layer 174, and the sidewall of the electrode layer 174 can be separated from the electrode layer 176 by the dielectric layer 173. Additionally, as... Figure 2 As shown, in the semiconductor die 200, the dielectric layer 177 has a sidewall substantially aligned with the sidewall of the underlying electrode layer 176, and the sidewall of the dielectric layer 175 is staggered with the sidewall of the overlying electrode layer 176, but substantially aligned with the sidewall of the underlying electrode layer 174. Further, as... Figure 2As shown, in the semiconductor die 200, the electrode layers 172 and 176 of the capacitor structure 270 are electrically connected to the same bonding conductor 194; while the electrode layer 174 of the capacitor structure 270 is electrically connected to another bonding conductor 194.
[0049] like Figures 1A to 1I As shown, in the semiconductor die 100, the capacitor structure 170 is formed after the redistribution layer 150 is formed. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, the capacitor structure 170 may be formed before the redistribution layer 150 is formed. The following will be combined with... Figure 3 and Figure 4 Other embodiments are described.
[0050] Figure 3 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of a semiconductor die 300 according to some alternative embodiments of the present invention. Figure 3 The semiconductor die 300 shown is Figure 1I The semiconductor die 100 shown is similar; therefore, the same reference numerals are used to refer to the same or similar parts, and their detailed description will be omitted here. The differences between semiconductor die 300 and semiconductor die 100 will be described below.
[0051] refer to Figure 3 In the semiconductor die 300, the capacitor structure 170 is disposed between the interconnect structure 120 and the redistribution layer 150, and is covered by the passivation layer 140. Specifically, as Figure 3 As shown, in the semiconductor die 300, multiple bonding conductors 194, which are electrically and physically in contact with the capacitor structure 170 and serve as multiple electrode connectors of the capacitor structure 170, extend perpendicularly along the Z direction through the gap-filling dielectric layer 160, passivation layer 140, and capacitor structure 170, and sit on multiple conductive patterns 122 of the interconnect structure 120. Furthermore, as... Figure 3 As shown, in the semiconductor die 300, all of the plurality of bonding conductors 194 are situated on and in physical contact with the plurality of conductive patterns 122 of the interconnect structure 120. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, in the semiconductor die 400, some bonding conductors 194 are situated on and physically in contact with the redistribution layer 150. Specifically, as... Figure 4 As shown, in the semiconductor die 400, the bonding conductor 194, which is not used as an electrode connector in the capacitor structure 170, vertically passes through the gap-filling dielectric layer 160 to establish an electrical connection with the redistribution layer 150. Because... Figure 4 The semiconductor die 400 shown is Figure 3The semiconductor die 300 shown is similar, therefore the same reference numerals are used to refer to the same or similar parts, and their detailed description is omitted here.
[0052] In some embodiments, the semiconductor die 100 can be used in a semiconductor package. For example, the semiconductor die 100 can be assembled with other components to form a semiconductor package. In some embodiments, the semiconductor package is a three-dimensional integrated circuit (3D-IC) package. In some embodiments, the semiconductor package is a system-on-integrated circuit (SoIC) package, etc. The manufacturing process of the semiconductor package utilizing the semiconductor die 100 will be described below.

In some embodiments, the dielectric layer 192 of semiconductor die 100 is bonded to the bonding layer 422 of bonding structure 420. In some embodiments, the dielectric layer 192 of semiconductor die 100 is fused to bonding layer 422.

[0068] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5E As shown, the support die 70 can be selectively bonded to the semiconductor die 500. In some embodiments, the support die 70 includes a body portion 710 and a bonding layer 720. The body portion 710 may include a semiconductor substrate, including Si, Ge, SiGe, SiC, or other suitable semiconductor materials.

[0070] refer to Figure 5G A bonding layer 440 is formed or disposed on a bonding layer 410, and a carrier 800B may be formed or disposed on a bonding layer 440. The bonding layer 440 may include an oxide-based layer having an oxide-based bonding surface. In some embodiments, the oxide-based layer of the bonding layer 440 is fused to the oxide-based bonding surface of the bonding layer 410. The carrier 800B may be a semiconductor substrate. (Continue referring to...) Figure 5G A portion of the carrier 800A, bonding layer 430, bonding layer 596, and dielectric structure 620 is removed to expose the bonding conductor 594.
[0071] refer to Figure 5H A passivation layer 900 is formed on the dielectric layer 592 and the bonding conductor 594, and a bump connector 902 is formed that penetrates the passivation layer 900 to electrically connect to the bonding conductor 594. This forms a semiconductor package SP. The passivation layer 900 may include silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, USG, etc. The bump connector 902 may be or may include a controlled collapse chip connection (C4) bump. It should be understood that the number of bump connectors 902 is merely exemplary and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. That is, more than one bump connector 902 may be formed on the redistribution layer 550.
[0072] like Figure 5H As shown, in the semiconductor package SP, the semiconductor die 100 is bonded and electrically connected to the semiconductor die 500 via bonding conductors 194. That is, external electrical connections of the semiconductor die 100 can be achieved through bonding conductors 194. It should be noted that in the semiconductor die 100, the arrangement density of the plurality of bonding conductors 194 (including the plurality of vias 194b) capable of external electrical connections is lower than the arrangement density of the plurality of conductive patterns (including the plurality of vias V) in the redistribution layer 150. That is, as... Figure 6As shown, the opening area of the passivation layer 180 (corresponding to the plurality of vias 194b) is smaller than the opening area of the passivation layer 140 (corresponding to the plurality of vias V). In other words, the opening density of the passivation layer 180 is lower than that of the passivation layer 140. Thus, by arranging the passivation layer 180 with a lower opening density, the arrangement area of the capacitor structure 170 embedded in the passivation layer 180 is increased. From another perspective, since the bonding conductor 194 enables external electrical connections, the bonding conductor 194 is the outermost conductive component of the semiconductor die 100. That is, the surface of the bonding conductor 194 exposed through the top surface of the dielectric layer 192 constitutes part of the outermost surface of the semiconductor die 100.
[0073] like Figure 5H As shown, in the semiconductor package SP, a bonding conductor 594 connects between the redistribution layer 550 and the bump connector 902. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, in the semiconductor package SP1, a bonding conductor 594 connects between a plurality of conductive patterns 522 and bump connectors 902 in the interconnect structure 520. Specifically, as Figure 7 As shown, the bottom portion of the bonding conductor 594 vertically penetrates the gap-filling dielectric layer 560 and passivation layer 540 to establish an electrical connection with the interconnect structure 520.

[0074] In addition, such as Figure 5H As shown, in the semiconductor package SP, there is no capacitor structure in the semiconductor die 500. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, in the semiconductor package SP2, the semiconductor die 500 includes a capacitor structure 570, and a plurality of bonding conductors 594 serve as a plurality of electrode connections for the capacitor structure 570. It should be noted that since the plurality of bonding conductors 594, made of copper, are used as the plurality of electrode connections for the capacitor structure 570, the junction resistance between the capacitor structure 570 and the plurality of electrode connections can be reduced. This improves the capacitance efficiency of the capacitor structure 570. Furthermore, it should be noted that for the semiconductor package (e.g., semiconductor package SP, semiconductor package SP1, semiconductor package SP2) or the semiconductor die 500, external electrical connections can be achieved through the plurality of bonding conductors 594 of the semiconductor die 500. Thus, by using the plurality of bonding conductors 594 that achieve external electrical connections as the plurality of electrode connections for the capacitor structure 570, the capacitance area of the capacitor structure 570 is increased. The capacitor structure 570 can be coupled with… Figures 1C to 1FIt is manufactured using a similar process. Specifically, as...

That is, bonding conductor 194 can achieve external electrical connection through direct metal-to-metal bonding. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, the bonding conductor can achieve external electrical connection through joint terminals or metal wiring. Reference will be made below. Figures 9 to 12 Other embodiments are described.

Figure 5H The semiconductor package 100 shown is similar, and the same reference numerals are used to refer to the same or similar components, and their detailed description is omitted here. The difference between semiconductor die 800 and semiconductor die 100 is that semiconductor die 800 does not have a capacitor structure, and the redistribution layer 150 enables external electrical connection with semiconductor die 500. That is, the conductive pattern of the redistribution layer 150 can be referred to as a bonding conductor. Furthermore, semiconductor die 800 is electrically connected to semiconductor die 500 via a connection terminal 702. For example, the connection terminal 702 is sandwiched between the bonding conductor 424 and the conductive pattern of the redistribution layer 150 to achieve the electrical connection between semiconductor die 800 and semiconductor die 500.

That is, in the semiconductor package SP6, the bonding conductor 594 of the semiconductor die 500 can be externally electrically connected to the semiconductor die 800 through the connection terminal 702. On the other hand, in the semiconductor package SP6, the bump connector 902 is in direct contact with and electrically connected to the bonding conductor 424.
[0083] To increase the capacitance area of the capacitor structure, the above embodiments of this invention use a bonding conductor capable of external electrical connection as the electrode connector of the capacitor structure.
