Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention
[0007] Hereinafter, this embodiment will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. For ease of understanding of the description, the same reference numerals are given to the same components in each drawing as much as possible, and redundant descriptions are omitted.
[0008] FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view for explaining the structure of a semiconductor memory device E in the first embodiment. The semiconductor memory device E includes a base substrate B and chips C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6. A chip C1 is bonded onto the base substrate B. A plurality of metal balls BE are bonded to the surface of the base substrate B opposite to the surface where the chip C1 is bonded.
[0009] On chip C1, chip C2 is bonded to the side opposite to the side bonded to base substrate B. On chip C2, chip C3 is bonded to the side opposite to the side bonded to chip C1. On chip C3, chip C4 is bonded to the side opposite to the side bonded to chip C2. On chip C4, chip C5 is bonded to the side opposite to the side bonded to chip C3. On chip C5, chip C6 is bonded to the side opposite to the side bonded to chip C4. In this way, chips C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, and C6 are stacked on base substrate B.
[0010] A protective film P is provided to cover the sides of chips C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, and C6. The protective film P also covers at least a portion of the base substrate B. In this embodiment, as an example, the protective film P is provided to be relatively thicker on the chip C1 side and relatively thinner on the chip C6 side. The thickness of the protective film P is not limited to this and may be provided to be uniform. The protective film P may be provided to be relatively thicker on the chip C6 side and relatively thinner on the chip C1 side. The protective film P may be removed. A mold resin layer M is provided to cover the protective film P.
[0011] Next, the manufacturing method of semiconductor memory device E will be explained with reference to Figures 2 to 9. Although Figures 2 to 9 show the manufacturing of two semiconductor memory devices E, it is possible to manufacture three or more semiconductor memory devices E simultaneously.
[0012] As shown in Figure 2, a base substrate B is prepared by bonding a support substrate SB to a base substrate B. Alternatively, a wiring layer may be formed on the support substrate SB to create the base substrate B. A predetermined number of individual chips C1 are bonded to predetermined positions on the base substrate B. The silicon C1a is thick in each chip C1. The through-silicon via (TSV) T1 extending from the chip C1 is embedded in the silicon C1a.
[0013] Next, as shown in Figure 3, reactive ion etching (RIE) is performed on silicon C1a to expose the head of the through electrode T1.
[0014] Next, as shown in Figure 4, a protective film P1 is formed to cover the chip C1, silicon C1a, and base substrate B. The protective film P1 is a resin film containing oxides, nitrides, and carbides formed by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). For example, films such as SiO2, SiOC, SiN, and SiCN may be used for the protective film P1. The protective film P1 may also consist of an insulating film that is coated. The insulating film that is coated may consist of an organic film or a polymer material. Spin coating, inkjet printing, screen printing, etc. may be used for coating. Whether coated or chemically deposited, the protective film P1 is formed conformally along the outer shape of the chip C1.
[0015] Next, as shown in Figure 5, the protective film P1 is thinned by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). By performing CMP, the through electrode T1 and the protective film P1 form a single surface. The through electrode T1 and the protective film P1 become the bonding surface. The pitch of the through electrode T1 may be, for example, 10 μm to 50 μm. The diameter of the ferrule electrode T1 may be 5 μm to 30 μm. The through electrode T1 may protrude from the protective film P1 by 0 to several μm. After final polishing, the thickness of the tip C1 becomes several tens of μm. Approximately 20 μm to 70 μm is preferred. The thickness of the protective film P1 on the bonding surface after polishing may be approximately 3 μm to 5 μm.
[0016] Next, as shown in Figure 6, the next chip C2 is bonded to the bonding surface of chip C1. Thereafter, the procedure described with reference to Figures 2 to 5 is repeated to stack chips C3, C4, C5, and C6 to form a chip laminate. As shown in Figure 7, a protective film is formed each time a chip is stacked, so when chip C6 is stacked, the protective film P is thicker on the side of chip C1 than on the side of chip C6. An electrode is formed on the side of chip C2 facing the bonding surface of chip C1, and an insulating film is formed around the electrode. The electrode and the insulating film may be formed on the same surface. The electrode may protrude from the insulating film by about 0 to several μm. The insulating film formed on the side of chip C2 facing the bonding surface of chip C1 may be an organic film or a polymer material, or it may be an inorganic film such as an oxide film or a nitride film. The insulating films formed on the bonding surface of chip C1 and on the side of chip C2 facing the bonding surface of chip C1 may be made of the same material or different materials.
[0017] Figure 8 shows an enlarged view of section XI in Figure 7. As shown in Figure 8, protective films P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, and P6 are stacked in order. Protective film P1 is a stacked film that was stacked when chip C1 was installed, as described above. Protective film P2 is a stacked film that was stacked when chip C2 was installed on chip C1. Protective film P3 is a stacked film that was stacked when chip C3 was installed on chip C2. Protective film P4 is a stacked film that was stacked when chip C4 was installed on chip C3. Protective film P5 is a stacked film that was stacked when chip C5 was installed on chip C4. Protective film P6 is a stacked film that was stacked when chip C6 was installed on chip C5. After chips C6 have been installed, a heat treatment may be performed to strengthen the bond between the contacting electrodes by metal diffusion. The heat treatment may be performed, for example, after stacking chip C2 on chip C1, and then after stacking chip C3 on chip C2. However, in this case, chip C1 would be subjected to multiple heat treatments, so it is preferable to heat all chips once after stacking.
[0018] As shown in Figure 8, six layers of laminated protective films are provided on the side of chip C1. Similarly, six layers of laminated protective films are provided on the base substrate B.
[0019] On the side surface of chip C2, protective film P1 is not formed, and the layers are stacked starting from protective film P2, resulting in a total of five layers of stacked protective films. On the side surface of chip C3, neither protective film P1 nor protective film P2 is formed, and the layers are stacked starting from protective film P3, resulting in a total of four layers of stacked protective films.
[0020] On the side surface of chip C4, protective films P1, P2, and P3 are not formed, and protective film P4 is laminated first, resulting in three layers of laminated protective films. On the side surface of chip C5, protective films P1, P2, P3, and P4 are not formed, and protective film P5 is laminated first, resulting in two layers of laminated protective films. On the side surface of chip C6, protective films P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 are not formed, and protective film P6 is laminated, resulting in one layer of laminated protective films.
[0021] In this case, since there is no connection to the through-electrode T1 on the uppermost chip C6, it may not be necessary to thin chip C6. In this case, no multilayer film is provided on the side surface of chip C6. Therefore, the protective film P6 shown in Figure 8 is not formed. On the side surface of chip C1, five layers of protective film are provided. In this case, five layers of protective film are provided on the base substrate B.
[0022] Next, as shown in Figure 9, a molded resin layer M is formed. After that, the support substrate SB is removed and the semiconductor memory device E shown in Figure 1 is obtained. A portion of the protective film P is exposed from the side of the molded resin M. The exposed protective film P is a laminated film in which SiN is repeated multiple times along a direction perpendicular to the surface of the base substrate B. The number of repetitions may be equal to the number of stacked chips or one less. The protective film P on the base substrate B may be removed before forming the molded resin layer M. In this case, the protective film P is not exposed from the side of the molded resin layer M.
[0023] Next, we will further explain chip C1 with reference to Figure 10. Figure 10 is a cross-sectional view of chip C1, showing the state as described with reference to Figure 2. As shown in Figure 10, chip C1 is a three-dimensional memory in which array chip 1 and circuit chip 2 are bonded together.

[0035] Figure 11 is a cross-sectional view showing the chip C1 bonded to the base substrate B by bonding. The base substrate B includes external terminals 70, a wiring layer 71, a plug 72, and a metal pad 73. Multiple external terminals 70 are provided beneath the base substrate B.

[0039] Figure 13 is a cross-sectional view showing the state in which chip C2 is further bonded to chip C1 shown in Figure 11 by bonding. From the state shown in Figure 11, the through electrode 61 of chip C1 is exposed by the method described with reference to Figures 3 to 6, and chip C2 is placed on chip C1. The through electrode 61 of chip C1 and the metal pad 47 of chip C2 are positioned opposite each other at corresponding positions and are bonded together.

[0040] Let's take the example shown in Figure 14, where the through-electrode 61 of chip C1 and the metal pad 47 of chip C2 are arranged. Figure 14 shows the top surface of chip C1 and the bottom surface of chip C2. In the example shown in Figure 14, the through-electrode 61a corresponds to the metal pad 47a, and the through-electrode 61b corresponds to the metal pad 47b. Bonding is performed by placing chip C2 on chip C1 so that these corresponding parts are arranged facing each other.

[0043] As shown in Figure 16, the metal pads may be arranged in an irregular pattern. Figure 16 shows the top surface of the base substrate BD and the bottom surface of the chip C1D. In the example shown in Figure 16, metal pad 73Da corresponds to metal pad 47Da, and metal pad 73Db corresponds to metal pad 47Db. The chip C1D is placed on the base substrate BD and bonded so that these corresponding parts are arranged facing each other. Note that, as illustrated in Figure 16, the arrangement of the metal pads on chip C1 may be changed according to the arrangement of the metal pads on the base substrate BD, or the arrangement of the metal pads on chip C1 as illustrated in Figure 15 may be changed by rewiring.
[0044] Figure 17 is a diagram illustrating a semiconductor memory device E1 using a base substrate Ba, as described with reference to Figure 12. As shown in Figure 17, the base substrate Ba contains a controller 74 internally. A wiring layer 71 is provided inside the base substrate Ba. Chips C are stacked on the base substrate Ba. The chip C is not limited to a configuration in which a memory substrate and CMOS (Complementary Metal-oxide Semiconductor) are joined, as in the chip C1 described with reference to Figure 10, etc., but may consist of a memory substrate alone, for example. A protective film P is provided on the outer periphery of the stacked multiple chips C. A molded resin layer M is provided around the protective film P.
[0045] Figure 18 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the structure of a semiconductor memory device E2 in a second embodiment. The semiconductor memory device E2 includes a base substrate B and a plurality of chips C. The chips C are held on the base substrate B, supported by adhesive portions 81. The base substrate B and the chips C are electrically connected by connecting electrodes 82. On the base substrate B, a plurality of metal balls BE are bonded to the surface opposite to the surface to which the chips C are bonded.
[0046] Each of the multiple chips C is provided with a through-electrode T. A protective film P is provided to cover the sides of the multiple chips C. The protective film P may be removed. A molded resin layer M is provided to cover the protective film P.
[0047] Next, the manufacturing method of the semiconductor memory device E2 will be explained with reference to Figures 19 to 28. Figures 19 to 28 illustrate an example in which two chips C are mounted.
[0048] As shown in Figure 19, a support substrate SB is prepared. The support substrate SB is a substrate that is removed during the manufacturing process.
[0049] Next, as shown in Figure 20, the chip C is bonded to the support substrate SB using an adhesive or the like. A through electrode T is provided inside the chip C.
[0050] Next, as shown in Figure 21, a protective film P is applied to the chip C bonded to the support substrate SB, exposing the through-electrode T, and the next chip C is bonded. The through-electrodes T of the bonded chips C are bonded to each other. The bonding of the chips C is performed by bonding.
[0051] Next, as shown in Figure 22, a protective film P is applied to the tip C located above, and the tip is exposed to reveal the through electrode T.
[0052] Next, as shown in Figure 23, the control chip CT is connected to the chip C located above. The control chip CT is connected to the through electrode T of the chip C located above.
[0053] Next, a base substrate B is prepared as shown in Figure 24. The base substrate B has a wiring layer (not shown). The base substrate B has a metal pad 83 on its upper side. The support substrate SB and chip C shown in Figure 23 are inverted and bonded to the base substrate B. Bonding is performed by the adhesive portion 81. The adhesive portion 81 also serves as a support that holds the chip C to the base substrate B at a predetermined distance. The chip C and the base substrate B are electrically connected by an electrode 82. The electrode 82 is connected to a through electrode T and a metal pad 83.
[0054] Next, as shown in Figure 25, the support substrate SB is removed. Then, as shown in Figure 26, molding resin is filled to cover the chip C on the base substrate B, forming a molding resin layer M.
[0055] Next, as shown in Figure 27, a metal ball BE is bonded to the underside of the base substrate B. The metal ball BE is bonded to a metal pad 83 provided on the underside of the base substrate B. Subsequently, as shown in Figure 28, it is cut along the cut line L and fragmented to form a semiconductor memory device E2. At this time, the protective film P may be partially exposed from the side surface of the molded resin layer M. Unlike the semiconductor device E in Figure 1, the protective film P is exposed from near the edge of the chip C, which is furthest from the base substrate B. The protective film P may be removed before forming the molded resin layer M. In this case, the protective film P is not exposed from the molded resin layer M.
[0056] The semiconductor devices E, E1, and E2 according to the above embodiment include a base substrate B including a wiring layer and a plurality of chips C stacked on the base substrate B, with electrodes and protective films P provided between the plurality of chips, and protective films P also provided on the sides of the chips C.
[0057] The protective film P comprises at least one of SiO2, SiOC, SiN, and SiCN. The protective film P is an insulating film formed by coating.
[0058] The protective film P provided on the side of chip C has different thicknesses on the base substrate B side and on the upper edge side of chip C. The protective film P provided on the side of chip C consists of multiple layers.
[0059] The manufacturing method for semiconductor devices E, E1, and E2 according to the above embodiment involves preparing a base substrate B including a wiring layer, bonding a chip C including electrodes onto the base substrate B, forming a protective film P on the chip C, thinning the protective film P on the chip C, and exposing the electrode heads on the chip C.
