半導體元件以及基於半導體晶粒的調準而形成與互連結構相對固定之凸塊下金層化之方法Semiconductor component and method for forming under bump gold slabs that are relatively fixed to interconnect structures based on alignment of semiconductor dies

本發明大體上關於半導體元件,且更特別地,關於一種半導體元件以及基於該半導體晶粒調準而形成與互連結構相對固定之固定凸塊下金屬化(UMB)層之方法。The present invention relates generally to semiconductor components and, more particularly, to a semiconductor component and a method of forming a fixed under bump metallization (UMB) layer that is relatively fixed to an interconnect structure based on the alignment of the semiconductor die.

半導體元件常見於現代電子產品中。半導體元件在電性構件之數量及密度上有所變化。分立式半導體元件大體上包含某類型電性構件,例如,發光二極體(LED)、小訊號電晶體、電阻器、電容器、電感器及功率式金氧半導體場效電晶體(MOSFET)。整合式半導體元件典型地包含成千上萬個電性構件。整合式半導體元件範例包含微控制器、微處理機、電荷耦合元件(CCD)、太陽能蓄電池及數位微型反射鏡元件(DMD)。Semiconductor components are common in modern electronic products. Semiconductor components vary in the number and density of electrical components. Discrete semiconductor components generally comprise a type of electrical component, such as a light emitting diode (LED), a small signal transistor, a resistor, a capacitor, an inductor, and a power MOSFET. Integrated semiconductor components typically contain thousands of electrical components. Examples of integrated semiconductor components include microcontrollers, microprocessors, charge coupled devices (CCDs), solar cells, and digital micromirror elements (DMDs).

半導體元件執行廣泛功能,例如,高速計算、傳輸並接收電磁波訊號、控制電子元件、轉換光線成為電力及產生電視顯示器之視覺投影。半導體元件為見於娛樂、通訊、電力轉換、網路、電腦及消費產品領域中。半導體元件也見於軍事應用、航空、汽車、工業控制及辦公設備中。Semiconductor components perform a wide range of functions, such as high speed computing, transmitting and receiving electromagnetic signals, controlling electronic components, converting light into electricity, and producing visual projections of television displays. Semiconductor components are found in the entertainment, communications, power conversion, networking, computer and consumer products sectors. Semiconductor components are also found in military applications, aerospace, automotive, industrial control and office equipment.

半導體元件利用半導體材料之電特性。半導體材料之原子結構讓它的導電性可受到施加電場或透過摻雜製程來操控。摻雜技術將雜質引入該半導體材料內以操控該半導體元件之導電性。Semiconductor components utilize the electrical properties of semiconductor materials. The atomic structure of a semiconductor material allows its conductivity to be manipulated by the application of an electric field or by a doping process. A doping technique introduces impurities into the semiconductor material to manipulate the conductivity of the semiconductor component.

一半導體元件包含主動及被動電性結構。包含二極體及場效電晶體之主動結構控制電流流動。藉由改變摻雜位準及施加電場或基極電流,該電晶體不是增加就是限制該電流流動。包含電阻器、電容器及電感器之被動結構在執行各種電性功能所需電壓與電流間產生某種關係。該些被動及主動結構被電性連接以執行高速計算和其它有用功能。A semiconductor component includes active and passive electrical structures. An active structure comprising a diode and a field effect transistor controls current flow. By changing the doping level and applying an electric or base current, the transistor does not increase or limit the current flow. Passive structures containing resistors, capacitors, and inductors have a relationship between the voltage and current required to perform various electrical functions. The passive and active structures are electrically connected to perform high speed calculations and other useful functions.

半導體元件大體上為使用二複合製程,也就是前端製程和後端製程來製造之,每一個製程可能涉及數百個步驟。前端製程涉及在一半導體晶圓表面上形成複數個晶粒。每一個晶粒典型地一模一樣且內含電性連接之主動及被動構件所形成之電路。後端製程涉及單粒化來自該已完成晶圓之個別晶粒並構裝該晶粒以提供結構支撐及環境隔離。Semiconductor components are generally fabricated using two composite processes, namely front-end processes and back-end processes, each of which can involve hundreds of steps. The front end process involves forming a plurality of dies on a surface of a semiconductor wafer. Each die typically has the same pattern and contains circuitry formed by electrically connected active and passive components. The back end process involves singulating individual dies from the finished wafer and constructing the dies to provide structural support and environmental isolation.

半導體製程之一目標為製造較小的半導體元件。較小的元件典型地消耗較少電力、具有較高執行效率且可更有效率地被製造。此外,較小的半導體元件具有一較小佔用空間,其可期待提供較小的終端產品。一較小晶粒尺寸可經由改善該前端製程以產生內含較小、較高密度主動和被動構件之晶粒而得。後端製程可經由改善電性連接和構裝材料而產生具有一較小佔用空間之半導體元件構裝。One of the goals of semiconductor manufacturing is to make smaller semiconductor components. Smaller components typically consume less power, have higher execution efficiency, and can be manufactured more efficiently. In addition, smaller semiconductor components have a smaller footprint, which can be expected to provide smaller end products. A smaller grain size can be obtained by improving the front end process to produce grains containing smaller, higher density active and passive components. The backend process can produce a semiconductor component package with a small footprint by improving electrical connections and packaging materials.

在形成晶圓級晶片尺寸構裝(WLCSP)時,常需要在該些構裝內形成頂部及底部互連結構。該頂部及底部互連結構有助於將該些晶圓級晶片尺寸構裝安裝至主機板及其它印刷電路板(PCB)或基板上。經由在該構裝之頂部及底部表面上形成該些互連結構,多個晶圓級晶片尺寸構裝可被放置於彼此上以形成堆疊式構裝而於一小構裝體積內提供複雜功能。該頂部及底部互連結構通常包含導電直通矽晶穿孔(TSV)或導電貫穿導通孔(THV)。為了形成直通矽晶穿孔或導電通孔,一通孔被切割以貫穿該半導體材料或該半導體晶粒周邊區域。該些通孔接著例如透過一電鍍製程之銅沉積作用而被一導電材料填滿。然而,該半導體晶粒在晶粒黏接期間難以調準且在該封膠製程期間會移位,其導致元件失敗及較低的製造良率。When forming wafer level wafer size packages (WLCSP), it is often desirable to form top and bottom interconnect structures within the packages. The top and bottom interconnect structures facilitate the mounting of the wafer level wafers to motherboards and other printed circuit boards (PCBs) or substrates. By forming the interconnect structures on the top and bottom surfaces of the package, a plurality of wafer level wafer size packages can be placed on each other to form a stacked package to provide complex functionality within a small package volume. The top and bottom interconnect structures typically comprise conductive through-silicon vias (TSVs) or conductive through vias (THVs). To form a through-silicon via or a conductive via, a via is cut through the semiconductor material or the peripheral region of the semiconductor die. The vias are then filled with a conductive material, for example, by copper deposition of an electroplating process. However, the semiconductor die is difficult to align during die bonding and can shift during the encapsulation process, which results in component failure and lower manufacturing yield.

半導體元件大體上為使用二複合製程:前端製程和後端製程來製造之。前端製程涉及在一半導體晶圓表面上形成複數個晶粒。在該晶圓上之每一個晶粒內含主動及被動電性構件,其為電性連接以形成功能性電性電路。例如電晶體之主動電性構件具有控制電流流動之能力。例如電容器、電感器、電阻器和變壓器之被動電性構件產生用以執行電性電路功能所需之電壓和電流間的關係。Semiconductor components are generally fabricated using a two-composite process: a front end process and a back end process. The front end process involves forming a plurality of dies on a surface of a semiconductor wafer. Each of the dies on the wafer contains active and passive electrical components that are electrically connected to form a functional electrical circuit. For example, an active electrical component of a transistor has the ability to control the flow of current. Passive electrical components such as capacitors, inductors, resistors, and transformers create the relationship between voltage and current required to perform electrical circuit functions.

被動及主動構件為經由包含摻雜、沉積、微影成像、蝕刻及平坦化之一系列製程而形成於該半導體晶圓表面上。摻雜技術經由例如離子植入或熱擴散類之技術將雜質引入該半導體材料中。該摻雜製程改變主動元件內部半導體材料之導電性,以轉換該半導體材料成為一絕緣體、導體,或動態地改變該半導體材料導電性以回應一電場或基極電流。電晶體內含依需求安排之各種摻雜類型與程度之區域以使該電晶體可依據該電場或基極電流來增進或限制電流流動。The passive and active components are formed on the surface of the semiconductor wafer via a series of processes including doping, deposition, lithography, etching, and planarization. Doping techniques introduce impurities into the semiconductor material via techniques such as ion implantation or thermal diffusion. The doping process changes the conductivity of the semiconductor material within the active device to convert the semiconductor material into an insulator, a conductor, or dynamically change the conductivity of the semiconductor material in response to an electric or base current. The transistor contains regions of various doping types and degrees as desired to enable the transistor to promote or limit current flow depending on the electric field or base current.

主動及被動構件為由具有不同電特性之材料層所形成。該些材料層可由欲沉積之材料類型所部分決定之各類沉積技術來形成之。例如,薄膜沉積技術可包含化學氣相沉積(CVD)、物理氣相沉積(PVD)、電鍍及無電鍍各製程。每一層大體上經由圖案化而形成主動構件、被動構件或構件間之電性連接部分。Active and passive components are formed from layers of material having different electrical properties. The layers of material may be formed by various deposition techniques that are determined in part by the type of material to be deposited. For example, thin film deposition techniques may include chemical vapor deposition (CVD), physical vapor deposition (PVD), electroplating, and electroless plating processes.

Light is used to transfer a pattern from a mask to the photoresist. The portion of the photoresist pattern that encounters light is removed using a solvent to expose portions of the underlying layer to be patterned.
