Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This disclosure relates to a hybrid bonding insulating film forming material, a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, and a semiconductor device. Regarding. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, three-dimensional packaging of semiconductor chips has been considered to improve the integration density of LSIs (Large Scale Integrated Circuits). Non-patent document 1 discloses an example of three-dimensional packaging of semiconductor chips.

[0003] When performing three-dimensional mounting of semiconductor chips using C2W (Chip-to-Wafer) bonding, the use of hybrid bonding technology, which is used in W2W (Wafer-to-Wafer) bonding, is being considered in order to achieve fine bonding of the wiring between devices.

[0004] In C2W hybrid bonding, there is a risk of misalignment due to thermal expansion of the substrate, chips, etc., caused by heating during bonding. To address this issue, Patent Document 1 discloses an example of a technology that can lower the bonding temperature by using a cyclic olefin resin. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2019-204818 [Non-patent literature]

[0006] [Non-Patent Document 1] FC Chen et al., “System on Integrated Chips(SoIC TM) for 3D Heterogeneous Integration”, 2019 IEEE 69th Electronic Components and Technology Conference (ECTC), p.594-599(2019) [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0007] In hybrid bonding technology, the practical application of using inorganic materials such as silicon dioxide (SiO2) as the insulating film in C2W bonding methods is being considered. However, because inorganic materials are hard, there is a risk that foreign matter originating from the inorganic material, generated when semiconductor chips are cut for individualization, may adhere to the surface of the insulating film, creating large voids at the bonding interface. As a result, the yield of semiconductor device manufacturing decreases, or manufacturing costs increase because facilities such as cleanrooms with high cleanliness are required to remove foreign matter.

[0008] On the other hand, the method of C2W bonding using hybrid bonding technology with an organic insulating film is still in the investigation stage and has not yet been put into practical use. When using the cyclic olefin resin described in Patent Document 1, the heat resistance of the resulting organic insulating film is insufficient, and there is a risk of bonding defects occurring at the interface between the substrate and the organic insulating film when exposed to high temperatures during C2W bonding. On the other hand, as mentioned above, the method of C2W bonding using hybrid bonding technology with an insulating film requires a low bonding temperature.

[0009] This disclosure has been made in view of the above, and aims to provide a hybrid bonding insulating film forming material that can reduce the bonding temperature while maintaining the heat resistance of the insulating film, a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, and a semiconductor device. [Means for solving the problem]

[0013] The following describes in detail the forms for implementing this disclosure. However, this disclosure is not limited to the following embodiments. In this disclosure, the components (including elemental steps, etc.) are not required unless otherwise explicitly stated. The same applies to numerical values ​​and their ranges, and they do not limit this disclosure. In this disclosure, the term "process" includes not only processes that are independent of other processes, but also processes that cannot be clearly distinguished from other processes, provided that the purpose of such process is achieved. In this disclosure, the numerical range indicated using "~" includes the numbers before and after "~" as the minimum and maximum values, respectively. In numerical ranges described in stages within this disclosure, the upper or lower limit of one numerical range may be replaced with the upper or lower limit of another numerical range described in stages. Furthermore, in numerical ranges described within this disclosure, the upper or lower limit of that range may be replaced with the values ​​shown in the examples. In this disclosure, each component may contain multiple types of the corresponding substance. If multiple types of the substance corresponding to each component are present in the composition, the content or amount of each component means the total content or amount of the multiple types of substances present in the composition, unless otherwise specified. In this disclosure, the terms “layer” or “film” include cases where, when the region in which the layer or film exists is observed, it is formed not only over the entire region but also over only a portion of the region. In this disclosure, the thickness of a layer or film is given as the arithmetic mean of the thicknesses of five points on the layer or film in question. The thickness of a layer or film can be measured using a micrometer or the like. In this disclosure, if the thickness of a layer or film can be measured directly, it is measured using a micrometer. On the other hand, when measuring the thickness of a single layer or the total thickness of multiple layers, it may be measured by observing the cross-section of the object to be measured using an electron microscope.

[0014] In this disclosure, "(meth)acrylic group" means "acrylic group" and "methacrylic group," "(meth)acrylate" means "acrylate" and "methacrylate," and "(meth)acryloyl" means "acryloyl" and "methacryloyl." In this disclosure, if a functional group has substituents, the number of carbon atoms in the functional group means the total number of carbon atoms, including the number of carbon atoms in the substituents. When embodiments are described in this disclosure with reference to the drawings, the configuration of such embodiments is not limited to the configuration shown in the drawings. Furthermore, the sizes of the components in each figure are conceptual, and the relative relationships between the sizes of the components are not limited thereto.

[0015] <Hybrid bonding insulating film forming material> The hybrid bonding insulating film forming material of the present disclosure comprises (A) a polyimide precursor having ester moieties, (B) a solvent, and (C) an ester moiety desorbing agent that promotes the desorption of the ester moieties. Hereinafter, the hybrid bonding insulating film forming material of this disclosure will also be referred to as the "insulating film forming material," (A) the polyimide precursor having an ester moiety will also be referred to as the "(A) polyimide precursor," and (C) the ester moiety desorbing agent that promotes the desorption of the ester moiety will also be referred to as the "(C) ester moiety desorbing agent."

[0016] The reason why the configuration of the hybrid bonding insulating film forming material disclosed herein allows for a reduction in the bonding temperature while maintaining the heat resistance of the insulating film is not immediately clear, but it can be considered as follows. The decrease in heat resistance is presumed to be due to the generation and volatilization of compounds with relatively small molecular weights from the insulating film. These compounds with relatively small molecular weights do not generate and volatilize at the curing temperature during the production of the cured film, but are generated and volatilized by heating during subsequent bonding and annealing processes, which is thought to lead to a decrease in heat resistance. Therefore, it is thought that heat resistance can be improved by actively generating (eliminating) relatively small molecular weight compounds that cause volatilization during the curing (imide cyclization reaction) beforehand, and by suppressing the generation of low molecular weight compounds from the cured film after curing. The following describes the components included in and potentially included in the insulating film forming material of this disclosure.

The glass transition temperature when cured may be 200°C or lower.

The obtained cured material is cut to create a rectangular parallelepiped measuring 10 mm × 50 mm × 10 μm.

As a result, the thermal expansion coefficient of the cured insulating film and the thermal expansion coefficient of the electrode are equal to or close to each other, so that even if heat generation occurs during use of the semiconductor device, damage to the semiconductor device due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the insulating layer and the electrode can be suppressed. Thermal expansion coefficient is the rate at which the length of the cured material expands per unit temperature due to the rise in temperature. The thermal expansion coefficient can be calculated by measuring the change in the length of the cured material at 100°C to 150°C using a thermomechanical analyzer or the like.

[0151] The pillar portion 30 is a connection portion in which a plurality of pillars 31 made of a metal such as copper (Cu) are sealed with resin 32. The plurality of pillars 31 are conductive members that extend from the upper surface to the lower surface of the pillar portion 30. The plurality of pillars 31 may have a cylindrical shape with a diameter of 3 μm or more and 20 μm or less (5 μm in one example), and may be arranged so that the distance between the centers of each pillar 31 is 15 μm or less. The plurality of pillars 31 make a flip-chip connection between the lower terminal electrode of the first semiconductor chip 10 and the upper terminal electrode of the redistribution layer 40.

[0153] The redistribution layer 40 electrically connects the terminal electrodes on the underside of the second semiconductor chip 20 and the terminal electrodes of the first semiconductor chip 10 via the pillar portion 30 to the terminal electrodes of the substrate 50. The terminal pitch of the substrate 50 is wider than the terminal pitch of the pillar 31 and the terminal pitch of the second semiconductor chip 20. Various electronic components 51 may be mounted on the substrate 50. If there is a large difference in terminal pitch between the redistribution layer 40 and the substrate 50, an inorganic interposer or the like may be used to make an electrical connection between the redistribution layer 40 and the substrate 50.

[0159] Step (b) is a step of preparing a second semiconductor substrate 200, which is a silicon substrate on which an integrated circuit comprising semiconductor elements and wiring connecting them is formed, corresponding to a plurality of second semiconductor chips 20. In step (b), as shown in Figure 2(a), a plurality of terminal electrodes 203 (a plurality of second electrodes) made of copper, aluminum, etc. are continuously provided on one surface 201a of the second substrate body 201 made of silicon, etc., and an insulating film 202 (a second insulating film, an organic insulating region) which is a cured product of the insulating film forming material of this disclosure is provided. The insulating film 202 may be provided on one surface 201a of the second substrate body 201 and then the plurality of terminal electrodes 203 may be provided, or the plurality of terminal electrodes 203 may be provided on one surface 201a of the second substrate body 201 and then the insulating film 202 may be provided.

[0160] Even if both insulating films 102 and 202 used in steps (a) and (b) are cured products of the insulating film forming material of this disclosure, one of the insulating films 102 and 202 may be a cured product of the insulating film forming material of this disclosure and the other may be another cured product. Examples of insulating film forming materials for forming other cured products include (A) those that do not contain a polyimide precursor and (A) those that contain other resins other than the polyimide precursor, and (C) those that do not contain an ester moiety detacher. Examples of other resins include insulating film forming materials containing a polyimide precursor without an ester moiety, polyimide, polyamideimide, benzocyclobutene (BCB), polybenzoxazole (PBO), PBO precursor, etc. The tensile modulus of insulating films 102 and 202 at 25°C is preferably 7.0 GPa or less, more preferably 5.0 GPa or less, even more preferably 3.0 GPa or less, and particularly preferably 2.5 GPa or less.

[0161] The thermal expansion coefficients of the insulating films 102 and 202 are preferably 150 ppm / K or less, more preferably 100 ppm / K or less, and even more preferably 90 ppm / K or less.

[0162] The thickness of insulating films 102 and 202 is preferably 0.1 μm to 50 μm, and more preferably 1 μm to 15 μm. This ensures uniformity of the insulating film thickness while shortening the processing time in subsequent polishing steps.

[0163] From the viewpoint of making the work in steps (c) and (d) easier to perform and simplifying these steps, it is preferable that at least one of the following conditions be met (preferably both conditions be met): the polishing rate of the insulating film 102 is 0.1 to 5 times the polishing rate of the terminal electrode 103, and the polishing rate of the insulating film 202 is 0.1 to 5 times the polishing rate of the terminal electrode 203. For example, if the terminal electrode 103 or 203 is made of copper and the polishing rate of the copper is 50 nm / min, the polishing rate of the insulating film 102 or 202 is preferably 200 nm / min or less (four times or less the polishing rate of copper), more preferably 100 nm / min or less (twice the polishing rate of copper) and even more preferably 50 nm / min or less (equivalent to or less the polishing rate of copper).

[0164] Next, a method for manufacturing an insulating film will be described. The insulating film is obtained by curing an insulating film forming material. Examples of the above-mentioned methods for manufacturing an insulating film include (α) a method comprising the steps of applying and drying an insulating film forming material onto a substrate to form a resin film, and heat-treating the resin film, and (β) a method comprising the steps of forming an insulating film with a constant thickness on a film that has been subjected to a release treatment using an insulating film forming material, then transferring the resin film to a substrate by a lamination method, and heat-treating the resin film formed on the substrate after the transfer. From the viewpoint of flatness, method (α) is preferred.

[0165] Examples of coating methods for insulating film-forming materials include spin coating, inkjet coating, and slit coating.

[0166] In the spin coating method, for example, the insulating film forming material may be spin-coated under conditions such as a rotation speed of 300 rpm (revolutions per minute) to 3,500 rpm, preferably 500 rpm to 1,500 rpm, an acceleration of 500 rpm / second to 15,000 rpm / second, and a rotation time of 30 seconds to 300 seconds.

[0167] The process may include a drying step after applying the insulating film forming material to a support, film, etc. Drying may be performed using a hot plate, oven, etc. The drying temperature is preferably 75°C to 130°C, and more preferably 90°C to 120°C from the viewpoint of improving the flatness of the insulating film. The drying time is preferably 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Drying may be performed two or more times. This makes it possible to obtain a resin film in which the above-mentioned insulating film forming material is formed in a film-like manner.

[0168] In the slit coating method, for example, the insulating film forming material may be slit coated under the following conditions: chemical dispensing speed of 10 μL / sec to 400 μL / sec, chemical dispensing section height of 0.1 μm to 1.0 μm, stage speed (or chemical dispensing section speed) of 1.0 mm / sec to 50.0 mm / sec, stage acceleration of 10 mm / sec to 1000 mm / sec, ultimate vacuum level of 10 Pa to 100 Pa during reduced-pressure drying, reduced-pressure drying time of 30 seconds to 600 seconds, drying temperature of 60°C to 150°C, and drying time of 30 to 300 seconds.

[0169] The formed resin film may be heat-treated. The heating temperature is preferably 150°C to 450°C, and more preferably 150°C to 350°C. By heating the temperature within the above range, damage to the substrate, device, etc., is suppressed, energy saving in the process is achieved, and an insulating film can be suitably produced.

[0170] The heating time is preferably 5 hours or less, and more preferably 30 minutes to 3 hours. By keeping the heating time within the above range, the crosslinking reaction or the dehydration ring-closing reaction can be carried out sufficiently. The heat treatment can be performed in the atmosphere of air or in an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen, but a nitrogen atmosphere is preferred from the viewpoint of preventing oxidation of the resin film.

[0171] Examples of equipment used for heat treatment include quartz tube furnaces, hot plates, rapid thermal annealing, vertical diffusion furnaces, infrared curing furnaces, electron beam curing furnaces, and microwave curing furnaces.

[0172] When using the insulating film forming material of this disclosure, which is a negative-type photosensitive insulating film forming material or a positive-type photosensitive insulating film forming material, when the insulating film 202 is provided on one surface 201a of the second substrate body 201 and then a plurality of terminal electrodes 203 are provided, for example, a method may be used that includes the steps of: coating the insulating film forming material onto the substrate; drying to form a resin film; pattern exposure of the resin film, developing with a developer to obtain a patterned resin film; and heat treatment of the patterned resin film. This makes it possible to obtain a cured patterned insulating film.

[0173] Alternatively, when providing the insulating film 202 on one surface 201a of the second substrate body 201 and then providing a plurality of terminal electrodes 203, for example, a method including the steps of: applying an insulating film forming material other than the insulating film forming material of the present disclosure on the substrate; drying to form a resin film; applying and drying the insulating film forming material of the present disclosure, which is a negative photosensitive insulating film forming material or a positive photosensitive insulating film forming material, on the resin film, then performing pattern exposure, and developing using a developer to obtain a patterned resin film; and heat-treating the patterned resin film may be used. Thereby, a cured patterned insulating film can be obtained.

[0174] Pattern exposure is performed, for example, by exposing to a predetermined pattern through a photomask. The active light rays to be irradiated include i-line, ultraviolet rays such as broadband, visible light rays, radiation, etc., and it is preferably i-line. As the exposure apparatus, a parallel exposure machine, a projection exposure machine, a stepper, a scanner exposure machine, etc. can be used.

[0175] By developing after exposure, a patterned resin film, which is a resin film with a pattern formed thereon, can be obtained. When the insulating film forming material of the present disclosure is a negative photosensitive insulating film forming material, the unexposed portion is removed with a developer. As the organic solvent used as the negative developer, as the developer, a good solvent of the photosensitive resin film can be used alone, or a good solvent and a poor solvent can be appropriately mixed and used. Examples of the good solvent include N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-acetyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, γ-butyrolactone, α-acetyl-γ-butyrolactone, 3-methoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide, cyclopentanone, cyclohexanone, cycloheptanone, etc. Examples of the poor solvent include toluene, xylene, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, water, etc.

[0176] If the insulating film forming material of this disclosure is a positive-type photosensitive insulating film forming material, the exposed area is removed with a developer. Examples of solutions used as developers for positive film include tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solution and sodium carbonate solution.

[0177] At least one of the negative-type developer and the positive-type developer may contain a surfactant. The surfactant content is preferably 0.01 to 10 parts by mass, and more preferably 0.1 to 5 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the developer.

[0178] The development time can be, for example, twice the time it takes for a photosensitive resin film to completely dissolve when immersed in the developer solution. The development time may be adjusted according to the (A) polyimide precursor contained in the insulating film forming material of the present disclosure, for example, preferably 10 seconds to 15 minutes, more preferably 10 seconds to 5 minutes, and even more preferably 20 seconds to 5 minutes from the viewpoint of productivity.

[0179] The pattern resin film may be washed with a rinsing solution after development. As the rinsing solution, distilled water, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, toluene, xylene, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, etc. may be used individually or in appropriate mixtures, or these may be used in a stepwise combination.

[0180] In addition, other organic materials constituting the insulating films 102 and 202, besides the cured product of the insulating film forming material of this disclosure, may be photosensitive resins, thermosetting non-conductive films (NCF), or thermosetting resins. This organic material may also be an underfill material. Furthermore, the organic material constituting the insulating films 102 and 202 may be a heat-resistant resin.

[0181] [Step (c) and step (d)] Step (c) is a step of polishing the first semiconductor substrate 100. In step (c), as shown in Figure 3(a), one side 101a of the surface of the first semiconductor substrate 100 is polished using chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) so that each surface 103a of the terminal electrode 103 is at the same position as or slightly higher (protruding) than the surface 102a of the insulating film 102. In step (c), the first semiconductor substrate 100 can also be polished by CMP under conditions that selectively and deeply grind the terminal electrode 103, which is made of copper or the like. In step (c), the terminal electrode 103 may be polished by CMP so that each surface 103a of the terminal electrode 103 coincides with the surface 102a of the insulating film 102. The polishing method is not limited to CMP, and back grinding or the like may be used. Prior to polishing by CMP, mechanical polishing may be performed using a polishing device such as a surface planer, or these may be combined. If each surface 103a of the terminal electrode 103 is slightly higher than the surface 102a of the insulating film 102, the height difference between each surface 103a and surface 102a may be 1 nm to 150 nm, or 1 nm to 15 nm.

[0182] Step (d) is a step of polishing the second semiconductor substrate 200. In step (d), as shown in Figure 3(a), one side 201a of the surface of the second semiconductor substrate 200 is polished using the CMP method so that each surface 203a of the terminal electrode 203 is at the same position as or slightly higher (protruding) than the surface 202a of the insulating film 202. In step (d), the second semiconductor substrate 200 is polished using the CMP method under conditions that selectively and deeply grind the terminal electrode 203, which is made of, for example, copper. In step (d), the terminal electrode 203 may be polished using the CMP method so that each surface 203a of the terminal electrode 203 coincides with the surface 202a of the insulating film 202. The polishing method is not limited to the CMP method, and back grinding or the like may be employed. If each surface 203a of the terminal electrode 203 is slightly higher than the surface 202a of the insulating film 202, the height difference between each surface 203a and surface 202a may be 1 nm to 50 nm, or 1 nm to 15 nm.

[0183] In steps (c) and (d), the insulating film 102 and the insulating film 202 may be polished to the same thickness, or for example, the insulating film 202 may be polished to a thickness greater than that of the insulating film 102. Alternatively, the insulating film 202 may be polished to a thickness less than that of the insulating film 102. When the insulating film 202 is thicker than that of the insulating film 102, much of the foreign matter adhering to the bonding interface when the second semiconductor substrate 200 is pieced or when chip mounting can be contained by the insulating film 202, further reducing bonding defects. On the other hand, when the insulating film 202 is thinner than that of the insulating film 102, the height of the mounted semiconductor chip 205, i.e., the semiconductor device 1, can be reduced. Steps (c) and (d) may be performed at least one of the two, and it is preferable to perform both steps (c) and (d).

[0184] [Step (e)] Step (e) is a step in which the second semiconductor substrate 200 is divided into individual pieces to obtain a plurality of semiconductor chips 205. In step (e), as shown in Figure 2(b), the second semiconductor substrate 200 is divided into a plurality of semiconductor chips 205 by a cutting means such as dicing. When dicing the second semiconductor substrate 200, a protective material may be applied to the insulating film 202 before dividing it into individual pieces. In step (e), the insulating film 202 of the second semiconductor substrate 200 is divided into insulating film portions 202b corresponding to each semiconductor chip 205. Examples of dicing methods for dividing the second semiconductor substrate 200 include plasma dicing, stealth dicing, and laser dicing. As a surface protective material for the second semiconductor substrate 200 during dicing, for example, a thin film such as an organic film that can be removed with water, TMAH, etc., or a carbon film that can be removed with plasma, etc. may be provided. In this embodiment, a large-area second semiconductor substrate 200 is prepared and then fragmented to obtain multiple semiconductor chips 205, but the method of preparing the semiconductor chips 205 is not limited to this.

[0185] [Process (f)] Step (f) is a step in which the terminal electrodes 203 of each of the multiple semiconductor chips 205 are aligned with respect to the terminal electrodes 103 of the first semiconductor substrate 100. In step (f), as shown in Figure 2(c), each semiconductor chip 205 is aligned so that the terminal electrodes 203 of each semiconductor chip 205 face the corresponding multiple terminal electrodes 103 of the first semiconductor substrate 100. Alignment marks or the like may be provided on the first semiconductor substrate 100 for this alignment.

[0186] [Process (g)] Step (g) is a step in which the insulating film 102 of the first semiconductor substrate 100 and each insulating film portion 202b of the multiple semiconductor chips 205 are bonded to each other. In step (g), after removing organic matter, metal oxides, etc. adhering to the surface of each semiconductor chip 205, the semiconductor chips 205 are aligned with the first semiconductor substrate 100 as shown in Figure 2(c), and then the insulating film portions 202b of each of the multiple semiconductor chips 205 are bonded to the insulating film 102 of the first semiconductor substrate 100 as a hybrid bonding (see Figure 3(b)). At this time, the insulating film portions of the multiple semiconductor chips 205 and the insulating film 102 of the first semiconductor substrate 100 may be uniformly heated before bonding. By bonding while heating, the insulating film 102 and insulating film portions 202b expand more than the terminal electrodes 103 and 203 due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the insulating film 102 and insulating film portions 202b and the terminal electrodes 103 and 203. In step (c), the first semiconductor substrate 100 may be polished so that the height of the insulating film 102 becomes approximately equal to or greater than the height of the terminal electrode 103 due to thermal expansion caused by heating, and in step (d), the second semiconductor substrate 200 may be polished so that the height of the insulating film portion 202b becomes approximately equal to or greater than the height of the terminal electrode 203. The temperature difference between the semiconductor chip 205 and the first semiconductor substrate 100 during bonding is preferably, for example, within 10°C. By heating and bonding at such a highly uniform temperature, an insulating bond portion S1 is formed in which the insulating film 102 and the insulating film portion 202b are bonded, and multiple semiconductor chips 205 are mechanically firmly attached to the first semiconductor substrate 100. Furthermore, because the heating and bonding is performed at a highly uniform temperature, misalignment at the bonding location is less likely to occur, and high-precision bonding can be achieved. At this attachment stage, the terminal electrode 103 of the first semiconductor substrate 100 and the terminal electrode 203 of the semiconductor chip 205 are spaced apart from each other and are not connected (however, alignment is performed). The semiconductor chip 205 may be bonded to the first semiconductor substrate 100 by other bonding methods, such as room temperature bonding.

[0187] The thickness of the organic insulating film, which is the insulating junction portion where the insulating film 102 and the insulating film portion 202b are joined, is not particularly limited and may be, for example, 0.1 μm or more, or from the viewpoint of suppressing the influence of foreign matter and device design, it may be 1 μm to 20 μm, and preferably 1 μm to 5 μm.

[0188] [Process (h)] Step (h) is a step in which the terminal electrodes 103 of the first semiconductor substrate 100 are joined to the terminal electrodes 203 of each of the multiple semiconductor chips 205. In step (h), as shown in Figure 2(d), once the bonding in step (g) is completed, heat H, pressure, or both are applied to join the terminal electrodes 103 of the first semiconductor substrate 100 to each of the terminal electrodes 203 of the multiple semiconductor chips 205 as a hybrid bond (see Figure 3(c)). If the terminal electrodes 103 and 203 are made of copper, the annealing temperature in step (g) is preferably 150°C to 400°C, and more preferably 200°C to 300°C. Through this joining process, the terminal electrodes 103 and their corresponding terminal electrodes 203 are joined to form an electrode joint portion S2, and the terminal electrodes 103 and 203 are firmly joined mechanically and electrically. Note that the electrode bonding in step (h) may be performed after the bonding in step (g), or it may be performed simultaneously with the bonding in step (g).

[0189] As described above, multiple semiconductor chips 205 are electrically and mechanically positioned with high precision at predetermined locations on the first semiconductor substrate 100. At the semi-finished product stage shown in Figure 2(d), for example, a product reliability test (such as a connection test) may be performed, and only good products may be used in subsequent processes. Next, an example of a manufacturing method for a semiconductor device using such a semi-finished product will be described with reference to Figure 4.

[0190] [Step (i)] Step (i) is a step of forming a plurality of pillars 300 on the connection surface 100a of the first semiconductor substrate 100 and between a plurality of semiconductor chips 205. In step (i), as shown in (a) of FIG. 4, a plurality of pillars 300, for example, made of copper are formed between the plurality of semiconductor chips 205. The pillars 300 can be formed from copper plating, conductive paste, copper pins, or the like. The pillars 300 are formed such that one end is connected to a terminal electrode of the first semiconductor substrate 100 that is not connected to the terminal electrode 203 of the semiconductor chip 205, and the other end extends upward. The pillars 300 are, for example, 10 μm or more and 100 μm or less in diameter and 10 μm or more and 1000 μm or less in height. Note that, between a pair of semiconductor chips 205, for example, 1 or more and 10000 or less pillars 300 may be provided.

[0191] [Step (j)] Step (j) is a step of molding a resin 301 on the connection surface 100a of the first semiconductor substrate 100 so as to cover the plurality of semiconductor chips 205 and the plurality of pillars 300. In step (j), as shown in (b) of FIG. 4, an epoxy resin or the like is molded to entirely cover the plurality of semiconductor chips 205 and the plurality of pillars 300. Examples of the molding method include compression molding, transfer molding, a method of laminating a film-shaped epoxy film, and the like. By this resin molding, the spaces between the plurality of pillars 300 and between the pillars 300 and the semiconductor chips 205 are filled with the resin 301. Thereby, a semi-finished product M1 filled with resin is formed. Note that, after molding an epoxy resin or the like, a curing process may be performed. Also, when steps (i) and (j) are performed substantially simultaneously, that is, when the pillars 300 are also formed at the timing of resin molding, the pillars may be formed using imprint, which is micro-transfer, and a conductive paste or electrolytic plating.

[0192] [Step (k)] Step (k) is a process in which a semi-finished product M1, which consists of a resin 301 molded in step (j), a plurality of pillars 300, and a plurality of semiconductor chips 205, is thinned by grinding from the resin 301 side to obtain a semi-finished product M2. In step (k), as shown in Figure 4(c), the first semiconductor substrate 100 etc., which is molded in resin, is thinned by polishing the upper part of the semi-finished product M1 with a grinder or the like to obtain a semi-finished product M2. Through polishing in step (k), the thickness of the semiconductor chips 205, pillars 300, and resin 301 is thinned to, for example, several tens of micrometers, the semiconductor chips 205 take on a shape corresponding to the second semiconductor chip 20, and the pillars 300 and resin 301 take on a shape corresponding to the pillar portion 30.

[0193] [Process (l)] Step (l) is a process in which a wiring layer 400 corresponding to the rewiring layer 40 is formed on the semi-finished product M2 that was thinned in step (k). In step (l), as shown in Figure 4(d), a rewiring pattern is formed on the second semiconductor chip 20 and pillar portion 30 of the ground semi-finished product M2 using polyimide, copper wiring, etc. This forms a semi-finished product M3 having a wiring structure with widened terminal pitch of the second semiconductor chip 20 and pillar portion 30.

[0194] [Process (m) and process (n)] Step (m) is a process in which the semi-finished product M3, on which the wiring layer 400 was formed in step (l), is cut along the cutting line A so that it becomes each semiconductor device 1. In step (m), as shown in Figure 4(d), the semiconductor device substrate is cut along the cutting line A so that it becomes each semiconductor device 1 by dicing or the like. Then, in step (n), the semiconductor devices 1a that were individualized in step (m) are inverted and placed on the substrate 50 and the circuit board 60 to obtain multiple semiconductor devices 1 as shown in Figure 1.

[0195] According to the above embodiment, which is an example of a semiconductor device manufacturing method, the insulating film 102 of the first semiconductor substrate 100 and the insulating film 202 of the second semiconductor substrate 200 are cured products of the insulating film forming material of this disclosure. Since the cured products of the insulating film forming material of this disclosure have high heat resistance, deterioration of the insulating film caused by heating such as bonding is suppressed, and the occurrence of peeling, degradation, etc. of the insulating film is suppressed. Furthermore, since it is possible to lower the bonding temperature by using the insulating film forming material of this disclosure, the occurrence of defects such as deterioration of the insulating film is further reduced.

[0196] Although one embodiment of the semiconductor device manufacturing method of the present disclosure has been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, in the above embodiment, in the process shown in Figure 4, the steps of forming the pillar 300 (i), molding the resin 301 (j), and grinding the resin 301 to thin it (k) were performed in order. However, the step of molding the resin 301 onto the connection surface of the first semiconductor substrate 100 (j) may be performed first, followed by the step of grinding the resin 301 to a predetermined thickness to thin it (k), and then the step of forming the pillar 300 (i). In this case, the work of grinding the pillar 300 can be reduced, and the portion of the pillar 300 that is to be ground is no longer needed, thus reducing material costs.

[0197] Furthermore, although the above embodiment describes a C2C bonding example, the present invention may also be applied to Chip-to-Wafer (C2W) bonding as shown in Figure 5. In C2W, a semiconductor wafer 410 (first semiconductor substrate) is prepared, having a substrate body 411 (first substrate body), an insulating film 412 (first insulating film) provided on one side of the substrate body 411, and a plurality of terminal electrodes 413 (first electrodes). Simultaneously, a semiconductor substrate (second semiconductor substrate) is prepared, having a substrate body 421 (second substrate body), an insulating film portion 422 (second insulating film) provided on one side of the substrate body 421, and a plurality of terminal electrodes 423 (second electrodes) before the individualization of a plurality of semiconductor chips 420. Then, one side of the semiconductor wafer 410 and one side of the second semiconductor substrate before individualization of the semiconductor chips 420 are polished by CMP or the like, in the same manner as in steps (c) and (d) above. Subsequently, the same fragmentation process as in step (e) is performed on the second semiconductor substrate to obtain multiple semiconductor chips 420.

[0198] Next, as shown in Figure 5(a), the terminal electrode 423 of the semiconductor chip 420 is aligned with the terminal electrode 413 of the semiconductor wafer 410 (step (f)). Then, the insulating film 412 of the semiconductor wafer 410 and the insulating film portion 422 of the semiconductor chip 420 are bonded together (step (g)), and the terminal electrode 413 of the semiconductor wafer 410 and the terminal electrode 423 of the semiconductor chip 420 are joined together (step (h)), obtaining the semi-finished product shown in Figure 5(b). This creates an insulating joint portion S3 where the insulating film 412 and the insulating film portion 422 are joined, and the semiconductor chip 420 is mechanically firmly and precisely attached to the semiconductor wafer 410. Furthermore, an electrode joint portion S4 is created where the terminal electrode 413 and its corresponding terminal electrode 423 are joined together, and the terminal electrode 413 and the terminal electrode 423 are mechanically and electrically firmly joined.

[0199] Subsequently, as shown in Figures 5(c) and 5(d), a semiconductor device 401 is obtained by bonding multiple semiconductor chips 420 to a semiconductor wafer 410 in the same manner. Note that the multiple semiconductor chips 420 may be bonded to the semiconductor wafer 410 one by one by hybrid bonding, or they may be bonded together to the semiconductor wafer 410 by hybrid bonding.

[0200] In this method for manufacturing the semiconductor device 401, similar to the method for manufacturing the semiconductor device 1 described above, at least one of the insulating film 412 of the semiconductor wafer 410 and the insulating film portion 422 of the semiconductor chip 420 is an insulating film that is a cured product of the insulating film forming material of this disclosure. Therefore, even if foreign matter generated by dicing during the individualization of the semiconductor chip 420 adheres to the insulating film, the insulating film around the foreign matter can be easily deformed, and the foreign matter can be contained within the insulating film without creating large voids in the insulating film. In other words, the effect of foreign matter can be suppressed by the insulating film. Thus, in the manufacturing method relating to C2W described above, similar to C2C, it is possible to reduce bonding defects while performing fine bonding of the semiconductor wafer 410 and the semiconductor chip 420.

[0201] Furthermore, in the above-described method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, inorganic materials may be included in a portion of the insulating film 102 of the semiconductor substrate 110, the insulating film 202 of the semiconductor chip 205, etc., to the extent that the effects of the present invention are achieved. [Examples]

[0202] The present disclosure will be described in more detail below based on examples and comparative examples. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the examples described below.

[0215] [Examples 1-11, Comparative Examples 1-2] (Preparation of insulating film forming material) The insulating film forming materials for Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were prepared as follows, using the components and amounts shown in Table 1. The units for the amount of each component in Table 1 are parts by mass. Blank spaces in Table 1 indicate that the corresponding component was not included. In each example and comparative example, the mixture of each component was kneaded overnight at room temperature (25°C) in a general solvent-resistant container, and then pressure filtered using a filter with 0.2 μm pores.

[0216] The components listed in Table 1 are as follows: • (A) Component: Polyimide precursor A1-A5 as described above (B) Component: Solvent B1: 3-Methoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide B2: γ-Butyrolactone B3: Dimethyl sulfoxide • (C) Ingredient: Ester moiety desorbing agent C1: Aniline diacetic acid C2:4-aminobenzamide C3: Phthalates, diazabicycloundecene salts C4: Nicotinamide

[0218] (Measurement of the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the cured film) Using the insulating film forming materials of Examples 1 to 11 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2, cured films were formed as follows, and then the storage modulus was measured. First, a photosensitive insulating film forming material was spin-coated onto a Si substrate, heated and dried on a hot plate at 95°C for 120 seconds, and then dried again at 105°C for 120 seconds to form a photosensitive resin film with a thickness of approximately 10 μm after drying.

[0219] The obtained photosensitive resin film was broadband (BB) exposed using a mask aligner MA-8 (manufactured by Suss Microtec) at the exposure levels shown in Table 1. The exposed resin film was developed with cyclopentanone using a coater developer ACT8 (manufactured by Tokyo Electron Limited) for a total development time of 20 seconds to obtain strip-shaped patterned resin films with a width of 10 mm. The obtained patterned resin film was cured in a vertical diffusion furnace μ-TF under a nitrogen atmosphere at 230°C for 2 hours to obtain a patterned cured product with a thickness of 10 μm. The obtained patterned cured product was immersed in a 4.9 mass% hydrofluoric acid aqueous solution, and a 10 mm wide patterned cured product was peeled off from the Si substrate.

[0220] Using a Hitachi High-Tech Science Corporation TMA7100 model and a tensile jig, the elongation (expansion) of the sample was measured in the temperature range of 50°C to 350°C under the conditions of an initial sample length of 10 mm, a heating rate of 5°C / min, and a load of 10 g. The glass transition temperature (Tg) was defined as the temperature at the start of the change, which was determined by the tangent method at the point where a rapid change in the expansion rate occurred in the curve obtained by the above method.

[0221] (Evaluation of bonding properties) The insulating film forming materials of Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were spin-coated onto an 8-inch Si wafer using a spin coater and dried to form a resin film. A mask capable of creating a circular resin film with a diameter of 180 mm was placed over the obtained resin film, and it was irradiated with light of a wavelength of 365 nm for a predetermined exposure amount. Subsequently, it was developed with cyclopentanone for a predetermined time, and 10 mm from the outer edge of the resin film on the Si wafer was removed to create a patterned resin film. The obtained patterned resin film was cured in a vertical diffusion furnace μ-TF under a nitrogen atmosphere at 230°C for 2 hours to obtain a patterned cured film with a thickness of 10 μm.

[0222] A resin-coated tip was obtained by breaking down a portion of the cured film into 5mm square pieces using a blade dicer (DISCO DFD-6362). The obtained resin-coated chips were applied to the cured film using a thermocompression press (manufactured by Showa Denko Materials Co., Ltd.) under a predetermined pressure and pressed for 15 seconds at the bonding temperature shown in Table 1 to produce a cured film with chips attached. For each insulating film forming material, 50 chips pressed onto the cured film were evaluated as described below.

[0223] At room temperature (25°C), a load was applied to the chip using tweezers to the resulting cured film with the attached chip. The adhesion defects between the resin interface or between the resin and the substrate were observed to determine whether the resin-coated chip, once pressed, peeled off the cured film. The evaluation criteria for adhesion were as follows. The results are shown in Table 2. An evaluation of A or B indicates that the product is considered practically acceptable. -Evaluation Criteria for Bonding Properties- A: Out of 50 chips, 5 or fewer chips showed bonding defects. B: Out of 50 chips, more than 5 but less than or equal to 7 chips showed bonding defects. C: Out of 50 chips, more than 7 showed bonding defects.

[0224] [Table 1]

[0225] As shown in Table 1, in Examples 1 to 11, the occurrence of adhesion defects was suppressed even when the bonding temperature was lower compared to Comparative Examples 1 to 2. On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, lowering the bonding temperature resulted in a higher incidence of bonding defects. [Explanation of Symbols]
