[0031] Hereinafter, the configuration of the through-hole electrode substrate according to the embodiment of the present disclosure and the manufacturing method thereof will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the embodiment shown below is an example of the embodiment of the present disclosure, and the present disclosure is not interpreted as being limited to these embodiments. In addition, in this specification, terms such as "substrate", "substrate", "sheet" and "film" are not distinguished from each other based only on the difference in name. For example, "substrate" and "substrate" are concepts that include members that can be called sheets and films. Furthermore, terms such as "parallel" and "orthogonal" and values ​​of length and angle, which specify the shape and geometric conditions and their degree, used in this specification, are interpreted to include the range in which similar functions can be expected without being bound by strict meaning. In addition, in the drawings referred to in this embodiment, the same or similar symbols are attached to the same parts or parts having similar functions, and repeated explanations thereof may be omitted. In addition, the dimensional ratios of the drawings may differ from the actual ratios for convenience of explanation, and part of the configuration may be omitted from the drawings.

[0032] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIGS.

[0033] Through-hole electrode substrate First, a through electrode substrate 10 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. Fig. 1 is a plan view showing the through electrode substrate 10. Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the through electrode substrate 10 of Fig. 1 cut along the dashed dotted line and viewed from the II-II direction.

[0034] The through electrode substrate 10 includes a substrate 12, a plurality of through holes 20 provided in the substrate 12, and through electrodes 22 provided inside the through holes 20. Each of the components of the through electrode substrate 10 will be described below.

[0035] (substrate) The substrate 12 includes a first surface 13 and a second surface 14 located on the opposite side of the first surface 13. The substrate 12 is made of a material having a certain level of insulating properties. For example, the substrate 12 is a glass substrate, a quartz substrate, a sapphire substrate, a resin substrate, a silicon substrate, a silicon carbide substrate, an alumina (Al2O3) substrate, an aluminum nitride (AlN) substrate, a zirconia oxide (ZrO2) substrate, or a laminate of these substrates. The substrate 12 may include a substrate made of a conductive material, such as an aluminum substrate or a stainless steel substrate.

[0036] The thickness of the substrate 12 is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to use a substrate 12 having a thickness of, for example, 100 μm or more and 800 μm or less. More preferably, the substrate 12 has a thickness of 200 μm or more and 600 μm or less. By making the thickness of the substrate 12 100 μm or more, it is possible to prevent the substrate 12 from bending too much. This makes it possible to prevent the substrate 12 from being difficult to handle in the manufacturing process, or from being warped due to internal stress of a thin film or the like formed on the substrate 12. In addition, by making the thickness of the substrate 12 800 μm or less, it is possible to prevent the time required for the process of forming the through-holes 20 in the substrate 12 from being extended, and thus to prevent the manufacturing cost of the through-hole electrode substrate 10 from increasing.

[0037] (Through hole) The through holes 20 are provided in the substrate 12 so as to extend from the first surface 13 to the second surface 14 of the substrate 12. The dimension S1 of the through holes 20 in the surface direction D1 of the first surface 13 is, for example, within a range of 20 μm or more and 150 μm or less at each position in the thickness direction of the substrate 12. The interval P between two adjacent through holes 20 in the surface direction D1, i.e., the arrangement pitch of the through holes 20, is, for example, within a range of 40 μm or more and 300 μm or less. The dimension S1 of the through holes in the surface direction D1 of the first surface 13 is the maximum value of the opening width of the through holes 20 when the through holes 20 are cut on any plane parallel to the first surface 13. The surface direction D1 is a direction parallel to the first surface 13. In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the symbol S11 represents the dimension of the through holes 20 on the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. In addition, in FIG. 2, reference symbol S11 indicates the dimension of the through-hole 20 on the second surface 14 of the substrate 12.

[0038] (Through electrode) The through electrode 22 is a conductive member provided inside the through hole 20. As shown in Fig. 2, the through electrode 22 has at least a first portion 23 and a second portion 24. The first portion 23 is a portion that spreads along the side wall 21 of the through hole 20 so as to reach the second surface 14 side from the first surface 13 side. The second portion 24 is a portion that is connected to the first portion 23 at an end portion on the first surface 13 side of the first portion 23, and spreads in the planar direction D1 of the first surface 13 so as to contact the side wall 21 of the through hole 20 on the first surface 13 side.

[0039] 2, the through electrode 22 may further include a third portion 25. The third portion 25 is a portion that is connected to the first portion 23 at an end portion of the first portion 23 on the second surface 14 side, and is provided on the second surface 14.

[0040] FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing an enlarged view of the through electrode 22 of the through electrode substrate 10 of FIG. 2. The second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 is preferably located on the same plane as the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. Note that "on the same plane" means that the difference ΔH between the position of the first surface 13 and the position of the outer surface 24a of the second portion 24 in the normal direction of the first surface 13 of the substrate 12 is 1 μm or less. The difference ΔH can be measured using a reflective confocal laser microscope or a stylus step gauge. Note that FIG. 3 shows an example in which the outer surface 24a of the second portion 24 protrudes outward from the first surface 13, but is not limited to this. Although not shown, the outer surface 24a of the second portion 24 may be recessed inward from the first surface 13 as long as the difference ΔH is 1 μm or less.

[0041] As long as the through electrode 22 has conductivity, the method of forming the through electrode 22 is not particularly limited. For example, the through electrode 22 may be formed by a physical film formation method such as a vapor deposition method or a sputtering method, or may be formed by a chemical film formation method or a plating method. The through electrode 22 may be composed of a single layer having conductivity, or may include a plurality of layers having conductivity. Here, an example will be described in which the through electrode 22 includes a first layer 22a and a second layer 22b having conductivity as shown in FIG. 3.

[0042] The first layer 22a is a so-called seed layer, and is a conductive layer that serves as a base for growing the second layer 22b by precipitating metal ions in a plating solution during an electrolytic plating process for forming the second layer 22b by plating. The material of the first layer 22a is preferably a conductive material that has high adhesion to the material of the substrate 12. For example, the material of the first layer 22a may be titanium, molybdenum, tungsten, tantalum, nickel, chromium, aluminum, compounds thereof, alloys thereof, or stacks thereof. The material of the first layer 22a may be a material that suppresses the diffusion of the second layer 22b into the substrate 12. For example, when the second layer 22b contains copper, the material of the first layer 22a may be titanium nitride, molybdenum nitride, tantalum nitride, or stacks thereof. The material of the first layer 22a may be the same as that of the second layer 22b. For example, when the second layer 22b contains copper, the first layer 22a may also contain copper. When the first layer 22a contains copper, a layer of a metal material having high adhesion to the substrate 12, such as titanium or titanium nitride, may be provided between the substrate 12 and the first layer 22a in order to improve adhesion between the substrate 12 and the first layer 22a. Furthermore, when the first layer 22a has sufficient thickness and conductivity, the second layer 22b may not be provided, and the first layer 22a may constitute the through electrode 22.

[0043] When the second layer 22b is provided on the first layer 22a, the thickness of the first layer 22a is, for example, 0.2 μm or less. When the second layer 22b is not provided, the thickness of the first layer 22a is, for example, 1 μm or more and 10 μm or less.

[0044] The second layer 22b is a conductive layer provided on the first layer 22a to increase the conductivity of the through electrode 22. The material of the second layer 22b is preferably a conductive material that has high adhesion to the first layer 22a and high conductivity. For example, the material of the second layer 22b may be metals such as copper, gold, silver, platinum, rhodium, tin, aluminum, nickel, chromium, or alloys using these metals, or laminates of these metals. The thickness of the second layer 22b is, for example, in the range of 1 μm or more and 10 μm or less.

[0045] The thickness of the second layer 22b is determined according to the electrical conductivity required for the through electrode 22. For example, when the through electrode 22 is a member for conducting a power line or a ground line, the second layer 22b having a sufficient thickness is used. When the through electrode 22 is a member for conducting a weak electric signal, the second layer 22b having a small thickness may be used. Alternatively, the through electrode 22 may be configured by providing only the first layer 22a in the through hole 20 without providing the second layer 22b.

[0046] The through electrode 22 is configured to form a hollow portion inside the through hole 20. The hollow portion is a region inside the through hole 20 where no solids such as the first layer 22a or the second layer 22b exist. In other words, the hollow portion 26 is a region inside the through hole 20 between the surfaces 23a of the first portion 23 facing each other inside the through hole 20, as shown in FIG. 3. The surface 23a is a surface of the first portion 23 that is located on the opposite side to the surface on the side of the side wall of the through hole 20. The dimension S5 of the hollow portion 26 in the surface direction D1 of the first surface 13 is, for example, 20% or more and 90% or less of the dimension S1 when measured at the same position in the thickness direction of the substrate 12. By forming the through electrode 22 so that a hollow portion 26 is formed inside the through hole 20, the time required to form the through electrode 22 can be shortened compared to when the inside of the through hole 20 is completely filled with the through electrode 22. Although not shown, an insulating material such as a resin may be provided in the hollow portion 26. This can prevent processing liquids such as a developing solution and a cleaning solution from entering the hollow portion 26 during the manufacturing process of the through hole electrode substrate 10.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 2, preferably, the dimension S1 of the through hole 20 in the surface direction D1 of the first surface 13 of the substrate 12 increases from the first surface 13 to the second surface 14. In other words, the through hole 20 has a tapered shape that becomes narrower toward the first surface 13. This makes it possible to prevent the second portion 24 from being pulled and moving toward the first surface 13 when the sealing layer 17 described later is peeled off from the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22. Note that the through hole 20 does not need to have a tapered shape over the entire area. As long as it is possible to prevent the through electrode 22 from being pulled and moving by the sealing layer 17, various shapes can be adopted as the shape of the through hole 20.

[0048] The dimension S11 of the through hole 20 on the first surface 13 of the substrate 12 is, for example, 10 μm or more and 100 μm or less. The dimension S12 of the through hole 20 on the second surface 14 side of the substrate 12 is, for example, 20 μm or more and 200 μm or less.

[0049] 1, the second portions 24 of the multiple through electrodes 22 are preferably uniformly distributed on the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. For example, when the substrate 12 is virtually divided into N equal parts in the planar direction D1, the number of through holes 20 formed in the N regions falls within a range of an average value ±20%, where N is an appropriate integer, for example, 16.

[0050] (wiring layer) As shown in Fig. 4, the through electrode substrate 10 may further include a wiring layer 30 provided on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12. The wiring layer 30 has at least a conductive layer 31 connected to the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22. In the example shown in Fig. 4, the conductive layer 31 includes an electrode portion 33 provided on the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22. The electrode portion 33 is, for example, a bump connected to a terminal 52 of an element 51 described later. The conductive layer 31 is made of a conductive material such as a metal.

[0051] 5A is a plan view showing the through electrode substrate 10 of the example shown in FIG. 4. As shown in FIG. 5A, both the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 and the electrode portion 33 have a circular shape in a plan view. Moreover, the electrode portion 33 overlaps with the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 when viewed along the normal direction of the substrate 12. Moreover, the electrode portion 33 has an outline surrounded by the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 when viewed along the normal direction of the substrate 12. For example, in the planar direction D1 of the first surface 13, the dimension S3 of the electrode portion 33 is smaller than the dimension S2 of the second portion 24.

[0052] 5B and 5C are plan views showing other examples of the through electrode substrate 10. The shape of the electrode portion 33 in plan view is arbitrary. For example, as shown in FIG. 5B, the electrode portion 33 may have an elliptical shape in plan view. In this case, the dimension S3 of the elliptical electrode portion 33 in the major axis direction may be smaller than the dimension S2 of the second portion 24. 5C, the electrode portion 33 may have a rectangular shape in a plan view. In this case, the dimension S3 of one side of the rectangular electrode portion 33 may be smaller than the dimension S2 of the second portion 24. The shape of the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 in a plan view is also arbitrary.

[0053] Manufacturing method of through-hole electrode substrate An example of a method for manufacturing the through electrode substrate 10 will be described below with reference to FIGS.

[0054] (First resist layer forming process) First, the substrate 12 is prepared. Next, as shown in Fig. 6, a first resist layer 16 is provided on the second surface 14 of the substrate 12. The first resist layer 16 is provided so as to cover an area of ​​the second surface 14 of the substrate 12 where the through holes 20 are not formed. An opening 16a of the first resist layer 16 is located in the area of ​​the second surface 14 of the substrate 12 where the through holes 20 are formed.

[0055] (Through hole formation process) Thereafter, the substrate 12 is processed from the second surface 14 side at the openings 16a of the first resist layer 16 to form a plurality of through holes 20 in the substrate 12 as shown in FIG. 7. Methods for processing the substrate 12 include dry etching methods such as reactive ion etching and deep reactive ion etching, and wet etching. Next, the first resist layer 16 is removed. In this manner, the substrate 12 provided with the through holes 20 can be prepared.

[0056] Preferably, as shown in Fig. 7, the substrate 12 is processed so that the through-hole 20 has a tapered shape that narrows from the second surface 14 side toward the first surface 13 side. For example, the through-hole 20 has a dimension S12 of about 50 µm on the second surface 14 side, and a dimension S11 of about 30 µm on the first surface 13 side.

[0057] When the substrate 12 includes glass, hydrogen fluoride (HF), a mixture of ammonium fluoride (NH4F) and hydrogen fluoride, so-called buffered hydrofluoric acid, etc. can be used as an etching solution for wet etching the substrate 12. When the substrate 12 includes silicon, potassium hydroxide (KH), tetramethyl ammonia hydroxide (TMAH), ethylenediaminepyrocatechol (EDP), hydrazine hydrate (N2H4·H2O), etc. can be used as an etching solution for wet etching the substrate 12.

[0058] As the dry etching method, a dry etching RIE (Reactive Ion Etching) method using plasma, a DRIE (Deep Reactive Ion Etching RIE) method using the Bosch process, a sandblasting method, or the like can be used.

[0059] The through holes 20 may be formed in the substrate 12 by irradiating the substrate 12 with a laser. In this case, the first resist layer 16 does not need to be provided. As a laser for laser processing, an excimer laser, a Nd:YAG laser, a femtosecond laser, or the like can be used. When an Nd:YAG laser is used, a fundamental wave with a wavelength of 1064 nm, a second harmonic with a wavelength of 532 nm, a third harmonic with a wavelength of 355 nm, or the like can be used.

[0060] Laser irradiation and wet etching can also be appropriately combined. Specifically, first, an altered layer is formed in the region of the substrate 12 where the through hole 20 is to be formed by laser irradiation. Then, the substrate 12 is immersed in hydrogen fluoride or the like to etch the altered layer. In this way, the through hole 20 can be formed in the substrate 12.

[0061] 6 and 7 show an example in which the through hole 20 is formed in the substrate 12 by processing the substrate 12 from the second surface 14 side, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the through hole 20 may be formed in the substrate 12 by processing the substrate 12 from the first surface 13 side. Furthermore, the through hole 20 may be formed in the substrate 12 by processing the substrate 12 from both the first surface 13 side and the second surface 14 side.

[0062] (Sealing layer formation process) 8, a sealing layer 17 that seals the through hole 20 is provided on the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. The sealing layer 17 is a layer that serves as a base when the second portion 24 of the above-mentioned through electrode 22 is formed inside the through hole 20. The sealing layer 17 includes, for example, a base layer containing a resin such as polyethylene terephthalate, and an adhesive layer that is laminated on the base layer and attached to the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. The sealing layer 17 is, for example, a dicing tape.

[0063] Preferably, the adhesive layer of sealing layer 17 contains a photocurable resin that is cured by being irradiated with light such as ultraviolet light. In this case, after second portion 24 of through electrode 22 is formed on sealing layer 17, sealing layer 17 is irradiated with light such as ultraviolet light to cure the adhesive layer of sealing layer 17, whereby sealing layer 17 can be easily peeled off from first surface 13 of substrate 12.

[0064] (Electrode formation process) Next, an electrode formation step is performed to form a through electrode 22 inside the through hole 20. In the electrode formation step, first, as shown in Fig. 9, from the second surface 14 side of the substrate 12, a first layer 22a is formed on the second surface 14 of the substrate 12, the side wall 21 of the through hole 20, and a portion of the sealing layer 17 that closes the through hole 20. As a method for forming the first layer 22a, for example, a physical film formation method such as a vapor deposition method or a sputtering method, or a chemical film formation method can be used.

[0065] 10, a second resist layer 18 is formed partially on the first layer 22a on the second surface 14 of the substrate 12. Specifically, the second resist layer 18 is formed so that the region of the second surface 14 where the third portion 25 of the through electrode 22 is not provided is covered with the second resist layer 18.

[0066] 11, the second layer 22b is formed on the first layer 22a by electrolytic plating. Specifically, a plating solution is supplied from the second surface 14 side of the substrate 12, and electricity is passed through the first layer 22a. As a result, the first layer 22a and the second layer 22b that extend along the sealing layer 17 can be formed on the sidewall 21, the sealing layer 17, and the second surface 14. Of the first layer 22a and the second layer 22b, the portion that extends along the sidewall 21 becomes the first portion 23 of the through electrode 22, the portion that extends along the sealing layer 17 becomes the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22, and the portion that extends along the second surface 14 becomes the third portion 25. Preferably, as shown in FIG. 12, the electrolytic plating is continued until the thickness T2 of the first layer 22a and the second layer 22b formed on the sealing layer 17 becomes larger than the thickness T1 of the first layer 22a and the second layer 22b formed on the sidewall 21 of the through hole 20. For example, thickness T2 is at least 1 μm greater than thickness T1.

[0067] Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 13, the second resist layer 18 is removed. Next, as shown in FIG. 14, the first layer 22a covered by the second resist layer 18 is removed. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 15, the sealing layer 17 is removed. For example, first, the sealing layer 17 is irradiated with ultraviolet light to reduce the adhesive force of the adhesive layer of the sealing layer 17. Next, the sealing layer 17 is peeled off from the substrate 12. In this manner, the through electrode 22 including the first layer 22a and the second layer 22b can be formed. The through electrode 22 has a first portion 23 extending along the side wall 21 of the through hole 20, a second portion 24 connected to the first portion 23 and extending in the surface direction D1 of the first surface 13 so as to contact the side wall 21 of the through hole 20 on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12, and a third portion 25 connected to the first portion 23 and provided on the second surface 14. In the above description, an example in which the first portion 23, the second portion 24, and the third portion 25 of the through electrode 22 are formed simultaneously has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, although not shown, the second portion 24, the first portion 23, and the third portion 25 may be formed in this order. Alternatively, after the second portion 24 is formed, the first portion 23 and the third portion 25 may be formed simultaneously. In this case, a step of removing the sealing layer 17 may be performed between the step of forming the second portion 24 and the step of forming the first portion 23. Also, the third portion 25 may be formed after the second portion 24 and the first portion 23 are formed simultaneously.

[0068] The advantages of the method for manufacturing the through electrode substrate 10 according to the present embodiment will be described below.

[0069] According to this embodiment, the through electrode 22 is formed inside the through hole 20 in a state where the through hole 20 is blocked with the sealing layer 17. Therefore, even when a so-called conformal via is adopted in which a hollow portion exists inside the through hole 20, the second part 24 of the through electrode 22 located on the same plane as the first surface 13 of the substrate 12 can be provided in the region overlapping the through hole 20. This allows the through electrode 22 and the conductive layer 31 of the wiring layer 30 to be connected in the region overlapping the through hole 20. Therefore, since there is no need to secure a region for connection with the conductive layer 31 of the wiring layer 30 on the first surface 13 of the substrate 12, the interval P between two adjacent through holes 20 can be made small. This allows the distribution density of the through holes 20 in the through electrode substrate 10 to be increased. In addition, by adopting a conformal via, the time required for the process of forming the through electrode 22 can be shortened compared to the case of a filled via.

[0070] Method for manufacturing through-hole electrode substrate in a comparative embodiment Incidentally, in addition to the method according to the present embodiment described above, a method according to the following comparative embodiment can be considered as a method for forming the through electrode 22 having the first portion 23 and the second portion 24. Hereinafter, a method for manufacturing the through electrode substrate 10 according to the comparative embodiment will be described with reference to Figs. 16 to 18.

[0071] First, as shown in Fig. 16, a conductive layer 71 is provided on the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. Specifically, the conductive layer 71 is provided so as to cover the through hole 20 to be formed later in the substrate 12. Next, as shown in Fig. 17, the through hole 20 is formed in the substrate 12 from the second surface 14 side. For example, the substrate 12 is processed by dry etching, wet etching, laser irradiation, or the like to form the through hole 20. Thereafter, as shown in Fig. 18, a through electrode 22 connected to the conductive layer 71 is formed inside the through hole 20.

[0072] In the comparative embodiment, as described above, after the conductive layer 71 is provided on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12, the through hole 20 is formed from the second surface 14 side of the substrate 12. In this case, when the processing of the substrate 12 proceeds beyond the first surface 13 of the substrate 12 to the conductive layer 71, a recess 71a is formed in the conductive layer 71 as shown in FIG. 17. For this reason, in the comparative embodiment, the thickness of the conductive layer 71 needs to be sufficiently large so that the recess 71a does not penetrate the conductive layer 71, and as a result, the thickness of the entire through electrode substrate 10 becomes large. In addition, when the thickness of the conductive layer 71 becomes large, the through electrode substrate 10 is likely to warp due to the residual stress inside the conductive layer 71. In addition, when the through hole 20 is formed by dry etching or wet etching, if the etching gas or the etching solution remains in the recess 71a of the conductive layer 71, the conductive layer 71 is likely to corrode. As a result, the reliability of the connection between the conductive layer 71 and the through electrode 22 decreases.

[0073] In addition, in the process of processing the substrate 12 from the second surface 14 side to form the through holes 20 in the substrate 12, the position and dimensions of the through holes 20 may deviate from the design due to manufacturing tolerances. Even if the position and dimensions of the through holes 20 deviate from the design, in order to cover the through holes 20 with the conductive layer 71, it is necessary to make the dimensions of the conductive layer 71 in the surface direction of the first surface 13 of the substrate 12 larger than the dimensions of the through holes 20 and the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 by at least the amount of manufacturing tolerance. Therefore, the conductive layer 71 extends to a portion that does not overlap with the through holes 20. In this case, the interval between two adjacent through holes 20 is set in consideration of the portion of the conductive layer 71 that extends to a portion that does not overlap with the through holes 20. For this reason, in the comparative embodiment, it is not easy to increase the distribution density of the through holes 20 in the through electrode substrate 10.

[0074] In contrast, in the present embodiment, after forming the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22, the conductive layer 31 of the wiring layer 30 is formed on the second portion 24. In addition, since the second portion 24 is formed on the surface of the sealing layer 17, the outer surface 24a of the second portion 24 has the same flatness as the surface of the sealing layer 17. Therefore, even if the thickness of the conductive layer 31 is small, the reliability of the connection between the conductive layer 31 and the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 can be ensured. Therefore, the thickness of the entire through electrode substrate 10 can be reduced. In addition, the warping of the through electrode substrate 10 due to the residual stress inside the conductive layer 31 can be suppressed.

[0075] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, since the conductive layer 31 of the wiring layer 30 is formed on the outer surface 24a of the second portion 24, the dimension S3 of the conductive layer 31 in the planar direction of the first surface 13 of the substrate 12 can be made smaller than the dimension of the second portion 24. This makes it possible to reduce the interval P between two adjacent through holes 20. This makes it possible to increase the distribution density of the through holes 20 in the through electrode substrate 10.

[0076] Mounting board Hereinafter, examples of applications of the through electrode substrate 10 according to the present embodiment will be described. Here, an example in which a mounting substrate 50 is formed by mounting an element 51 on the through electrode substrate 10 will be described.

[0077] FIG. 19 is a cross-sectional view showing a mounting substrate 50, and FIG. 20 is a plan view showing the mounting substrate 50 in the example shown in FIG. 19. The mounting substrate 50 includes a through electrode substrate 10 and an element 51 mounted on the through electrode substrate 10 on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12. The element 51 is an LSI chip such as a logic IC or a memory IC. The element 51 may also be a MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) chip. The MEMS chip is an electronic device in which mechanical components, sensors, actuators, electronic circuits, and the like are integrated on one substrate. As shown in FIG. 19, the element 51 has a terminal 52 connected to an electrode portion 33 of a wiring layer 30 of the through electrode substrate 10.

[0078] 21 , the mounting board 50 may further include a circuit board 55 connected to the through electrode board 10 on the second surface 14 side of the board 12. In this case, the through electrode board 10 of the mounting board 50 further includes an electrode portion 38 provided on the third portion 25 of the through electrode 22. The circuit board 55 also includes a base material 56 and an electrode portion 57 provided on the base material 56 and connected to the electrode portion 38 of the through electrode board 10.

[0079] The base material 56 of the circuit board 55 includes an organic material such as polyimide, epoxy, or acrylic. In this case, when the base material 56 is subjected to some kind of heat treatment, it is considered that internal stress occurs in the base material 56 due to thermal expansion. Here, according to the present embodiment, since the substrate 12 of the through electrode substrate 10 includes a material having high rigidity such as glass or silicon, it is possible to suppress the influence of the internal stress of the base material 56 from reaching the element 51 and the wiring layer 30 mounted on the first surface 13 side of the through electrode substrate 10. Therefore, it is possible to ensure the reliability of the connection between the through electrode substrate 10 and the element 51.

[0080] It should be noted that various modifications can be made to the above-described embodiment. Below, the modified examples will be described with reference to the drawings as necessary. In the following description and the drawings used in the following description, the same reference numerals as those used for the corresponding parts in the above-described embodiment will be used for parts that can be configured in the same manner as in the above-described embodiment, and duplicated descriptions will be omitted. Also, if it is clear that the effects obtained in the above-described embodiment can also be obtained in the modified examples, the description may be omitted.

[0081] (First Modification) Fig. 22 is a cross-sectional view showing the through electrode substrate 10 according to the first modification. Fig. 23 is a plan view showing the through electrode substrate 10 according to the first modification as viewed from the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12. As shown in Figs. 22 and 23, the conductive layer 31 of the wiring layer 30 may include a plurality of electrode portions 33 provided on the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22. Since the conductive layer 31 of the wiring layer 30 is formed after the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 of the through electrode substrate 10 is formed, it becomes possible to divide the electrode portion 33 of the conductive layer 31 on the second portion 24 into a plurality of portions.

[0082] (Second Modification) FIG. 24 is a cross-sectional view showing the through electrode substrate 10 according to the second modification. FIG. 25 is a plan view showing the through electrode substrate 10 according to the second modification as viewed from the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12. As shown in FIGS. 24 and 25, the conductive layer 31 of the wiring layer 30 includes a conductor portion 34 that intersects with the contour of the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 when viewed along the normal direction of the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. As shown in FIG. 25, in the planar direction D1 of the first surface 13, the dimension S4 of the conductor portion 34 located on the second portion 24 is smaller than the dimension S2 of the second portion 24. The dimension S4 of the conductor portion 34 is measured in a direction perpendicular to the direction D2 in which the conductor portion 34 located on the second portion 24 extends.

[0083] As described above, the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 of the through electrode substrate 10 is located on the same plane as the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. In other words, there is almost no step between the outer surface 24a of the second portion 24 and the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. Therefore, even if the conductor portion 34 extends so as to straddle the second portion 24 and the first surface 13 as in this modified example, it is possible to suppress stress concentration on a part of the conductor portion 34 due to the step, and it is possible to suppress breakage of the conductor portion 34. Therefore, it is possible to ensure the reliability of the conductor portion 34. In addition, since the thickness of the conductor portion 34 can be reduced, the thickness of the entire through electrode substrate 10 can be reduced.

[0084] (Third Modification) Fig. 26 is a cross-sectional view showing a through electrode substrate 10 according to a third modified example. As shown in Fig. 26, the wiring layer 30 provided on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12 may further include an insulating layer 36 in addition to a conductive layer 31. The insulating layer 36 contains an organic material having insulating properties, for example, polyimide. In this case, the conductive layer 31 includes, for example, an electrode portion 33 that functions as a through electrode penetrating the insulating layer 36, and a conductor portion 34 covered by the insulating layer 36.

[0085] 26, the wiring layer 30 may have a plurality of layers including a conductive layer 31 and an insulating layer 36. For example, the wiring layer 30 has a first wiring layer 41 including the conductive layer 31 and the insulating layer 36 provided on the first surface 13 of the substrate 12, and a second wiring layer 42 including the conductive layer 31 and the insulating layer 36 provided on the first wiring layer 41.

[0086] 26, the layer located on the outermost surface of the wiring layer 30, here the second wiring layer 42, may further include a coating layer 35 provided on the electrode portion 33. The coating layer 35 includes a conductive material having corrosion resistance, such as gold. The coating layer 35 may also include multiple layers. For example, the coating layer 35 may include a gold layer located on the outermost surface and a nickel layer disposed between the gold layer and the electrode portion 33.

[0087] 27, a mounting board 50 may be configured by mounting an element 51 on the wiring layer 30 shown in FIG. 26. The above-mentioned covering layer 35 functions as a pad connected to the terminal 52 of the element 51. Although not shown, the covering layer 35 does not necessarily have to be provided. Even in this case, the mounting board 50 can be configured by connecting the terminal 52 of the element 51 to the electrode portion 33 of the second wiring layer 42 of the wiring layer 30.

[0088] An example of a method for manufacturing the wiring layer 30 according to this modified example will be described below with reference to FIGS.

[0089] First, the through electrode substrate 10 according to the present embodiment described above is prepared. Next, as shown in Fig. 28, an electrode portion 33 is formed on the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 of the through electrode substrate 10. In addition, a conductor portion 34 is formed on the first surface 13 of the substrate 12 of the through electrode substrate 10.

[0090] The electrode portion 33 and the conductor portion 34 may be formed by, for example, the same method as that for forming the through electrode 22 of the through electrode substrate 10. For example, the formation of a first layer functioning as a seed layer, the formation of a resist layer, the formation of a second layer by electrolytic plating, the removal of the resist layer, and the removal of the first layer are performed in this order. In this case, the electrode portion 33 and the conductor portion 34 each include a first layer having conductivity and functioning as a seed layer, and a second layer having conductivity and formed on the first layer by an electrolytic plating process. A layer of a metal material having high adhesion to the through electrode 22 or the substrate 12, such as titanium or titanium nitride, may be provided between the first layer functioning as a seed layer and the through electrode 22 or the substrate 12.

[0091] In the through electrode substrate 10 according to the present embodiment described above, there is almost no step between the outer surface 24a of the second portion 24 and the first surface 13 of the substrate 12. Therefore, even if the thickness of the conductive layer 31 provided on the outer surface 24a of the second portion 24 and the first surface 13 of the substrate 12, such as the electrode portion 33 and the above-mentioned first layer of the conductor portion 34, is small, it is possible to prevent the conductive layer 31 from being broken due to the step.

[0092] Next, a photosensitive and insulating organic material layer is provided on the first surface 13 of the substrate 12 so as to cover the electrode portion 33 and the conductor portion 34. After that, the organic material layer is exposed to light and developed so as to remove the portion of the organic material layer above the electrode portion 33. This makes it possible to form an insulating layer 36 that has an opening 36a that exposes the electrode portion 33 on the through electrode 22 and covers the conductor portion 34, as shown in FIG.

[0093] 30, an electrode portion 33 is further formed on the electrode portion 33, and a conductor portion 34 is formed on the insulating layer 36. For example, similar to the case of forming the electrode portion 33 and the conductor portion 34 on the substrate 12, formation of a first layer that functions as a seed layer, formation of a resist layer, formation of a second layer by electrolytic plating, removal of the resist layer, and removal of the first layer are carried out in this order.

[0094] Next, as shown in Fig. 31, an insulating layer 36 is formed to expose the electrode portion 33 on the through electrode 22 and cover the conductor portion 34. Subsequently, as shown in Fig. 32, an electrode portion 33 is further formed on the already provided electrode portion 33 so that the electrode portion 33 protrudes from the surface of the insulating layer 36. In this manner, a wiring layer 30 including the electrode portion 33 penetrating the insulating layer 36 and the conductor portion 34 covered by the insulating layer 36 can be formed.

[0095] (Fourth Modification) Fig. 33 is a cross-sectional view showing a through electrode substrate 10 according to a fourth modified example. As shown in Fig. 33, a plurality of electrode parts 33 penetrating an insulating layer 36 of a wiring layer 30 may be connected to a second portion 24 of one through electrode 22. Since the conductive layer 31 of the wiring layer 30 is formed after forming the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 of the through electrode substrate 10, it becomes possible to divide the electrode part 33 of the conductive layer 31 on the second portion 24 into a plurality of parts.

[0096] (Fifth Modification) Fig. 34 is a cross-sectional view showing a through hole electrode substrate 10 according to a fifth modified example. As shown in Fig. 34, the wiring layer 30 provided on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12 may further include a stress relaxation layer 37 disposed between the substrate 12 and the insulating layer 36. The stress relaxation layer 37 is a layer for relaxing the internal stress of the insulating layer 36. The stress relaxation layer 37 contains an inorganic material having insulating properties. For example, the stress relieving layer 37 contains a nitrogen compound such as silicon oxide or nitrogen oxide.

[0097] The advantages of providing the stress relaxation layer 37 will be described below. The insulating layer 36 of the wiring layer 30 contains an organic material. When such an insulating layer 36 is provided on a substrate 12 containing glass, internal stress that acts to pull the substrate 12 is likely to occur in the insulating layer 36. Hereinafter, such internal stress is referred to as tensile stress. If the tensile stress becomes large, it is considered that the substrate 12 will bend.

[0098] On the other hand, the stress relaxation layer 37 containing an inorganic material is prone to internal stress that acts to compress the substrate 12. Hereinafter, such internal stress is referred to as compressive stress. According to this modification, by providing the stress relaxation layer 37 between the substrate 12 and the insulating layer 36, the tensile stress of the insulating layer 36 can be relaxed. Therefore, the occurrence of warping in the substrate 12 can be suppressed. 34 shows an example in which the stress relaxation layer 37 is provided between the substrate 12 and the insulating layer 36 of the first wiring layer 41. However, the specific position of the stress relaxation layer 37 is not particularly limited. For example, the stress relaxation layer 37 may be located between the insulating layer 36 of the first wiring layer 41 and the insulating layer 36 of the second wiring layer 42. In this case, a further stress relaxation layer 37 may be present between the substrate 12 and the insulating layer 36 of the first wiring layer 41, or the stress relaxation layer 37 may not be present between the substrate 12 and the insulating layer 36 of the first wiring layer 41.

[0099] The thickness of the insulating layer 36 and the stress relaxation layer 37 are set so that the stresses of the insulating layer 36 and the stress relaxation layer 37 can cancel each other out appropriately. For example, when the insulating layer 36 includes an organic material having insulating properties such as polyimide, epoxy, acrylic, etc., and has a thickness of 5 μm to 20 μm or less, the stress relaxation layer 37 includes an insulating material such as a silicon compound, and has a thickness of 1 μm to 5 μm or less. Examples of silicon compounds include SiO2, SiN, SiOC, SiC, SiOF, SiON, and SiCN.

[0100] (Sixth Modification) In the above-described embodiment, an example has been shown in which sidewall 21 of through hole 20 has a linear shape in a cross-sectional view. However, the shape of through hole 20 is not particularly limited as long as through electrode 22 including first portion 23 and second portion 24 can be provided. For example, as shown in FIG. 35, sidewall 21 of through hole 20 may have a curved shape in a cross-sectional view.

[0101] (Seventh Modification) In the above-described embodiment, an example has been shown in which the through electrode 22 has a first portion 23 extending along the side wall 21 of the through hole 20, a second portion 24 extending in the planar direction D1 of the first surface 13 so as to contact the side wall 21 of the through hole 20 on the first surface 13 side, and a third portion 25 provided on the second surface 14. However, as shown in FIG. 36 , it is sufficient that the through electrode 22 has at least the first portion 23 and the second portion 24.

[0102] [Examples of products equipped with through-hole electrode substrates] 39 is a diagram showing an example of a product in which the through electrode substrate 10 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure can be mounted. The through electrode substrate 10 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure can be used in various products. For example, it is mounted in a notebook personal computer 110, a tablet terminal 120, a mobile phone 130, a smartphone 140, a digital video camera 150, a digital camera 160, a digital clock 170, a server 180, and the like. EXAMPLES

[0103] Next, the present disclosure will be described more specifically with reference to examples. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the description of the following examples as long as it does not depart from the gist of the disclosure.

[0104] Example 1 First, the through electrode substrate 10 shown in FIG. 40 was fabricated based on the manufacturing method of the through electrode substrate 10 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure described above. The through electrode substrate 10 includes a substrate 12 having a through hole 20, a through electrode 22 provided inside the through hole 20 and including a first portion 23, a second portion 24, and a third portion 25, and a wiring layer 30 provided on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12 and including an electrode portion 33 connected to the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22. The wiring layer 30 includes an insulating layer 36 provided on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12 and having an opening corresponding to the electrode portion 33, and a conductor portion 34 provided on the insulating layer 36 and connecting the electrode portions 33 on the second portions 24 of the through electrodes 22 of two adjacent through holes 20 via the opening of the insulating layer 36.

[0105] A temperature cycle test was performed for 1000 cycles while current was flowing between the through electrodes 22 of two adjacent through holes 20. One cycle includes a step of increasing the ambient temperature of the through electrode substrate 10 from -45°C to 125°C, a step of maintaining the ambient temperature at 125°C, a step of decreasing the ambient temperature from 125°C to -45°C, and a step of maintaining the ambient temperature at -45°C. The time required for one cycle is 40 minutes.

[0106] After carrying out the temperature cycle test for 1000 cycles, we checked whether there was any electrical conduction failure. As a result, we confirmed that there was no electrical conduction failure in any of the test points.

[0107] Comparative Example 1 First, a through electrode substrate 70 shown in FIG. 41 was fabricated based on the manufacturing method of the through electrode substrate 70 according to the comparative embodiment described above. The through electrode substrate 70 includes a substrate 12 having a through hole 20, a through electrode 22 provided inside the through hole 20 and including a first portion 23, a second portion 24, and a third portion 25, and a wiring layer 80 provided on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12 and including a conductive layer 71 connected to the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22. The wiring layer 80 includes an insulating layer 36 provided on the first surface 13 side of the substrate 12 and having an opening corresponding to the conductive layer 71, and a conductor portion 34 provided on the insulating layer 36 and connecting the conductive layer 71 on the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 of two adjacent through holes 20 via the opening of the insulating layer 36.

[0108] A temperature cycle test was performed for 1000 cycles in the same manner as in Example 1. As a result, electrical conduction failure occurred in 80% of the test points. In Comparative Example 1, it is considered that a depression 71a was formed in the conductive layer 71, and the electrical connection between the conductive layer 71 and the second portion 24 of the through electrode 22 became unstable due to corrosion of the depression 71a, causing the electrical conduction failure.
