- the present invention relates to a bump structure whose mounting position, shape, and size can be favorably controlled and to a method of manufacturing the same.
- metal bumps When an element is directly mounted onto a board using flip-chip bonding, in many cases, such mounting is carried out via bumps made of metal (metal bumps) formed on the element or on the electrodes of the board.
- metal bumps can be formed by fusing metal wires and then breaking off the wires. See, for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. H05-6893.
- these metal bumps can be formed by plating. See, for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. H05-6893 and Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. H05-47768.
- such methods for forming metal bumps require complex processes and/or apparatuses. Also, it is difficult to control the shapes and sizes of the obtained metal bumps, as well as the formation positions of the metal bumps, with high precision.
- a bump structure according to the invention can include a protruding part provided on an insulating layer and composed of resin obtained by hardening a liquid material, and a conductive layer that covers the protruding part.
- the protruding part can be obtained by forming a liquid-repelling part with a liquid-repelling characteristic for the liquid material and a liquid-attracting part that is more wettable than the liquid-repelling part for the liquid material on an upper surface of the insulating layer, and then discharging the liquid material onto the liquid-attracting part and hardening the liquid material.
- a bump structure according to the invention can include a recessed part provided in a substrate, a protruding part that is partially buried in the recessed part, and a conductive layer that covers the protruding part.
- a top part of the protruding part is at a higher position than a highest part of the recessed part.
- a bump structure according to the invention can include a protrusion provided on a substrate, a protruding part that is provided on an upper surface of the protrusion, and a conductive layer that covers the protruding part.
- the bump structures of the invention described above can have the following aspects.

Description
- This is a Continuation of application Ser. No. 10/849,884 filed May 21, 2004. This application claims the benefit of Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-169051 filed Jun. 13, 2003. The disclosure of the prior applications is hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
- 1. Field of Invention
- The present invention relates to a bump structure whose mounting position, shape, and size can be favorably controlled and to a method of manufacturing the same.
- 2. Description of Related Art
- When an element is directly mounted onto a board using flip-chip bonding, in many cases, such mounting is carried out via bumps made of metal (metal bumps) formed on the element or on the electrodes of the board. As one example, these metal bumps can be formed by fusing metal wires and then breaking off the wires. See, for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. H05-6893. Alternatively, these metal bumps can be formed by plating. See, for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. H05-6893 and Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. H05-47768. However, such methods for forming metal bumps require complex processes and/or apparatuses. Also, it is difficult to control the shapes and sizes of the obtained metal bumps, as well as the formation positions of the metal bumps, with high precision.
- On the other hand, a method that discharges conductive paste using an ink jet method is known as a simpler method for forming metal bumps. See, for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. H03-60036. However, since the viscosity of conductive paste is normally extremely high, when this method of forming is used, it is difficult to precisely discharge the conductive paste from the nozzle of an ink jet head. This means that in the same way as the methods of forming described above, it is difficult to control the shapes and sizes of the formed metal bumps, as well as the formation positions of the metal bumps, with high precision.
- It is an object of the invention to provide a bump structure whose mounting position, shape, and size can be favorably controlled and to a method of manufacturing the same.
- A bump structure according to the invention can include a protruding part provided on an insulating layer and composed of resin obtained by hardening a liquid material, and a conductive layer that covers the protruding part. The protruding part can be obtained by forming a liquid-repelling part with a liquid-repelling characteristic for the liquid material and a liquid-attracting part that is more wettable than the liquid-repelling part for the liquid material on an upper surface of the insulating layer, and then discharging the liquid material onto the liquid-attracting part and hardening the liquid material.
- A bump structure according to the invention can include a recessed part provided in a substrate, a protruding part that is partially buried in the recessed part, and a conductive layer that covers the protruding part. A top part of the protruding part is at a higher position than a highest part of the recessed part.
- A bump structure according to the invention can include a protrusion provided on a substrate, a protruding part that is provided on an upper surface of the protrusion, and a conductive layer that covers the protruding part.
- With the bump structure above, by having the described composition, it is possible to obtain a bump structure whose mounting position, shape, and size can be favorably controlled. This is described in greater detail below.
- The bump structures of the invention described above can have the following aspects. In the bump structure described above, it is possible to make the maximum width d1 of a cross-section of the protruding part larger than the maximum width d2 of the upper surface of the protrusion. It should be noted that in the case where the cross-section of the protruding part is circular, for example, the maximum width of a cross-section of the protruding part is the maximum diameter of a (circular) cross-section of the protruding part, while as another example, in the case where the cross-section of the protruding part is oval, the maximum width of a cross-section of the protruding part is the maximum diameter of an (oval) cross-section of the protruding part. This also applies to the maximum width of the upper surface of the protrusion. It should be noted that the expression a cross-section of the protruding part refers to a cross-section obtained by cutting the protruding part on a plain parallel to an upper surface of the protrusion.
- In the bump structures described above, it is possible for the substrate to be composed of an insulating layer. Further, in the bump structures described above, it is possible for the conductive layer to be electrically coupled to an electrode connecting part.
- A method of manufacturing a bump structure can include the steps of forming a liquid-repelling part with a liquid-repelling characteristic for droplets and a liquid-attracting part that is more wettable than the liquid-repelling part for the droplets on an upper surface of an insulating layer, discharging the droplets onto the liquid-attracting part to form a protruding part precursor, hardening the protruding part precursor by applying energy to form a protruding part, and forming a conductive layer so as to cover the protruding part.
- A method of manufacturing a bump structure can include the steps of forming a recessed part in a substrate, discharging droplets onto a base surface of the recessed part to form a protruding part precursor, applying energy to the protruding part precursor to harden the protruding part precursor and form a protruding part that is partially buried in the recessed part, with a top part of the protruding part being set at a higher position than a highest part of the recessed part, and forming a conductive layer so as to cover the protruding part.
- A method of manufacturing a bump structure can include the steps of forming a protrusion on a substrate, discharging droplets onto an upper surface of the protrusion to form a protruding part precursor, applying energy to the protruding part precursor to harden the protruding part precursor and form a protruding part, and forming a conductive layer so as to cover the protruding part.
- According to the methods of manufacturing a bump structure described above, by adjusting the discharged amount of droplets, it is possible to form bump structures whose mounting position, shape, and size have been favorably controlled using a simpler method. This is described in greater detail below.
- The methods of manufacturing a bump structure of the invention described above can have the following aspects. The method of manufacturing a bump structure described above may form a maximum width d1 of a cross-section of the protruding part larger than a maximum width d2 of the upper surface of the protrusion. The method of manufacturing a bump structure described above may compose the substrate of an insulating layer. The method of manufacturing a bump structure described above may carry out, before the protruding part precursor is formed, a liquid-repelling treatment on a region aside from a region in which the protruding part precursor is formed.
- The method of manufacturing a bump structure described above may discharge the droplets according to an ink jet method. Here, the expression ink jet method refers to a method that discharges droplets using an ink jet head. However, in this case, the droplets that are discharged are not ink that is used on printed materials but a liquid including raw materials for the protruding part. According to this method, it is possible to finely adjust the discharged amount of the droplets, so that a minute protruding part can be mounted easily. For the method of manufacturing a bump structure described above, the droplets may include a precursor of either thermosetting resin or UV-hardening resin, and the energy may be heat or UV rays.
- In a mounting structure of an IC chip and a circuit board according to the invention, the IC chip and the circuit board can be joined via the above bump structure, and the bump structure is formed on a surface of either the IC chip or the circuit board.

FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing abump structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.FIG. 2 is a plan view schematically showing thebump structure 100 shown inFIG. 1 . It should be noted thatFIG. 1 shows a cross-section taken along a line A-A inFIG. 2 . - The
bump structure 100 according to the embodiment includes a protrudingpart 10 made of resin and aconductive layer 30 that covers the protrudingpart 10. The protrudingpart 10 is provided on an insulatinglayer 20 and is obtained by hardening a liquid material. More specifically, the protrudingpart 10 is made, for example, of resin obtained by hardening a liquid material that can be hardened through the application of energy, such as heat or light. Even more specifically, in the embodiment, the protrudingpart 10 is formed by forming a liquid-repellingpart 40 that repels the liquid material mentioned above and a liquid-attractingpart 42 that is more wettable for the liquid material mentioned above than the liquid-repellingpart 40 on anupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20, then discharging droplets of the liquid material mentioned above onto the liquid-attractingpart 42 to form aprotruding part precursor 10 a (described later) on the liquid-attractingpart 42, and after this hardening theprotruding part precursor 10 a. It should be noted that the liquid-repellingpart 40 and the liquid-attractingpart 42 are described below in the Method of Manufacturing section (seeFIG. 3 (a) toFIG. 4 (c)). - Precursors of UV-hardening resin and thermosetting resin can be given as examples of the liquid material mentioned above. Acrylic and epoxy UV hardening resins can be given as examples of UV hardening resins. Polyimide thermosetting resin can be given as an example of a thermosetting resin. Out of these, when the protruding
part 10 is formed using a thermosetting resin, abump structure 100 with superior heat resistance can be obtained. In particular, when a board including thebump structure 100 is mounted, thebump structure 100 is exposed to high temperature conditions of around 400° C., for example, during the mounting process, so that it is preferable for thebump structure 100 to have superior heat resistance. Also, when the protrudingpart 10 is formed using a UV-hardening resin, a heating process is not required during hardening, which is favorable in that little damage is caused for parts (such as an element) aside from thebump structure 100. - The protruding
part 10 in thebump structure 100 is hemispherical. In this case, the curvature and radius of the protrudingpart 10 can be appropriately set by adjusting the amount of the liquid material mentioned above. - The insulating
layer 20 may be an inorganic material, such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, oxide nitride silicon, or the like, or an organic material, such as resin. When the insulatinglayer 20 is made of resin, the insulatinglayer 20 can be formed using polyimide resin, acrylic resin, epoxy resin, and a fluororesin, for example. - The
conductive layer 30 is formed on the protrudingpart 10. More specifically, as shown inFIG. 1 , theconductive layer 30 can be formed so as to cover the protrudingpart 10. There are no particular limitations on the material of theconductive layer 30, and a multilayer structure of two or more layers may be used. As examples, a metal, such as aluminum, copper, silver, gold, platinum, zinc, tin, nickel, titanium, tungsten, germanium, or cobalt, an alloy of these metals, or a transparent electrode, such as ITO, can be used as theconductive layer 30. - Next, a method of manufacturing the
bump structure 100 shown inFIG. 1 andFIG. 2 will be described with reference toFIG. 3 (a) toFIG. 4 (c).FIG. 3 (a) andFIG. 4 (a) toFIG. 4 (c) are cross-sectional views respectively showing manufacturing processes of thebump structure 100 shown inFIG. 1 andFIG. 2 .FIG. 3 (b) is a plan view schematically showing the manufacturing process shown inFIG. 3 (a).FIG. 3 (a) shows a cross-section taken along a line A-A inFIG. 3 (b). - First, by carrying out a liquid-repelling treatment on a predetermined region of the
upper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20, the liquid-repellingpart 40 is formed (seeFIG. 3 (a) andFIG. 3 (b)). This liquid-repelling treatment can control the wettability of theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20 with respect to the liquid material (used in a later process) for forming the protrudingpart 10. By doing so, it is possible to control the mounting position of the protrudingpart 10. More specifically, this liquid-repelling treatment may be carried out for a region aside from the region in which the protrudingpart 10 will be formed in a later process, or this liquid-repelling treatment may be carried out for the entireupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20, with the liquid-repellingpart 40 then being removed from only the region in which the protrudingpart 10 will be formed. By the above process, the liquid-repellingpart 40 is formed. It should be noted that the region shown by the crosses “x” inFIG. 3 (a) and the diagonally shaded region inFIG. 3 (b) are both the liquid-repellingpart 40. The region of theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20 where the liquid-repellingpart 40 is not formed is the liquid-attractingpart 42. This liquid-attractingpart 42 is a region with higher wettability for the liquid material mentioned above than the liquid-repellingpart 40. - This liquid-repelling
part 40 has a low wettability for the liquid material for forming the protrudingpart 10. The liquid-repellingpart 40 can be formed by carrying out a plasma treatment on theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20, for example. Alternatively, the liquid-repellingpart 40 can be formed of a film (for example, a monomolecular film of alkylsilane fluoride) with a liquid-attracting characteristic for the liquid material mentioned above. - In addition, by carrying out a liquid-attracting treatment on only the liquid-attracting
part 42 inFIG. 3 (a) andFIG. 3 (b), it is possible to increase the wettability for the liquid material for forming the protrudingpart 10. - There are also no particular limitations on the method of forming the insulating
layer 20. When the material of the insulatinglayer 20 is resin, the insulatinglayer 20 can be formed using a method, such as spin coating, dipping, and an ink jet method. When the material of the insulatinglayer 20 is a silicon oxide layer, a silicon nitride layer, or an oxide nitride silicon layer, the insulatinglayer 20 can be formed as a layer by CVD, for example. - Next, the protruding
part 10 is formed on theupper surface 20 a of the insulating layer 20 (seeFIG. 4 (a) toFIG. 4 (c)). - First,
droplets 10 b of the liquid material for forming the protrudingpart 10 are discharged on the liquid-attractingpart 42, out of theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20, to form the protrudingpart precursor 10 a (seeFIG. 4 (a) andFIG. 4 (b)). As described above, the liquid material is capable of being hardened through the application ofenergy 13. - A dispenser method and an ink jet method are examples of methods of discharging the
droplets 10 b. The dispenser method is a common method for discharging droplets, and is effective when discharging thedroplets 10 b onto a relatively wide region. The ink jet method is a method where droplets are discharged using an ink jet head, where it is possible to control the discharge position of the droplets in units in the order of im. In addition, the amount of the discharged droplets can be control in units in the order of picoliters. In this way, by discharging droplets in the present process using the ink jet method, it is possible to strictly control the size of the protrudingpart 10. InFIG. 4 (a), a process that discharges thedroplets 10 b onto the liquid-attractingpart 42 from anozzle 50 of an ink jet head is shown. - The protruding
part precursor 10 a is formed on the liquid-attractingpart 42. Even if thedroplets 10 b make impact with the liquid-repellingpart 40, the wettability of the liquid-repellingpart 40 for thedroplets 10 b is lower than the wettability of the liquid-attractingpart 42 for thedroplets 10 b, so that thedroplets 10 b that have made impact with the liquid-repellingpart 40 move to the liquid-attractingpart 42. In this way, by providing the liquid-repellingpart 40 on theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20, it is possible to control the formation position of theprotruding part precursor 10 a. Also, the size of theprotruding part precursor 10 a can be controlled by adjusting the discharged amount of thedroplets 10 b. - Next, the protruding
part precursor 10 a is hardened to form the protruding part 10 (seeFIG. 4 (c)). More specifically, theenergy 13, such as heat or light, is applied to theprotruding part precursor 10 a. When hardening theprotruding part precursor 10 a, an appropriate method for the type of liquid material is used. As examples, heat energy is applied, or irradiation with light, such as UV rays or laser light is carried out. - Next, the
conductive layer 30 is formed on the protrudingpart 10 so as to cover the protruding part 10 (seeFIG. 1 andFIG. 2 ). The method of forming theconductive layer 30 can be selected as appropriate in accordance with the material, etc., of theconductive layer 30. For example, it is possible to form theconductive layer 30 using vapor deposition or sputtering. Also, as necessary, it is possible to form theconductive layer 30 in a predetermined pattern by patterning theconductive layer 30 using a method such as a lift-off method, dry etching, or wet etching. - By carrying out the above process, the
bump structure 100 of the embodiment is obtained (seeFIG. 1 andFIG. 2 ). - The bump structure and the method of manufacturing according to the embodiment have the following operation and effects.
- First, compared to a normal method of manufacturing metal bumps, the
bump structure 100 according to the embodiment can be manufactured using a simple method. That is, as described above, bumps are normally formed by breaking off wires, by plating, or the like. On the other hand, thebump structure 100 according to the embodiment is mainly composed by a process that forms the liquid-repellingpart 40 and the liquid-attractingpart 42 on theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20, a process that forms the protrudingpart 10 on the liquid-attractingpart 42, and a process that forms theconductive layer 30 that covers the protrudingpart 10. That is, the protrudingpart 10 can be formed using the ink jet method described above, for example, and theconductive layer 30 can be formed using a known film forming method described above. Accordingly, no special apparatus is required to manufacture thebump structure 100, so that thebump structure 100 can be formed by a simple method. - Secondly, it is possible to obtain the
bump structure 100 that has the desired shape and size and whose mounting position is strictly controlled. As described above, the protrudingpart 10 of thebump structure 100 is formed by forming theprotruding part precursor 10 a on the liquid-attractingpart 42 and then hardening theprotruding part precursor 10 a (seeFIG. 4 (a) andFIG. 4 (b)). - Here, it is possible to control the shape and size of the protruding
part 10 via the discharged amount of thedroplets 10 b, so that it is possible to obtain abump structure 100 of the desired shape and size. Also, by forming theprotruding part precursor 10 a by discharging the liquid material onto the liquid-attractingpart 42 in a state where the liquid-repellingpart 40 and the liquid-attractingpart 42 have been provided on theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20, it is possible to form the protrudingpart 10 at a desired position. - In particular, when an IC chip, on which a light element such as a light-emitting element or a light-receiving element is mounted, and a circuit board (for example, a glass epoxy substrate or a glass substrate including a wiring layer on a surface thereof) are mounted via a plurality of the
bump structures 100, in order to efficiently use the light emitted from the light element, or to efficiently guide light to the light element, it is necessary to join the IC chip and the circuit board in parallel. This means it is necessary to make the heights of the plurality ofbump structures 100 for joining the IC chip and the circuit board uniform. - In this case, with the method of manufacturing according to the embodiment, by making the areas of the liquid-attracting
parts 42 uniform and strictly controlling the amount of thedroplets 10 b discharged by the ink jet method when forming theprotruding part precursors 10 a on the liquid-attractingparts 42, it is possible to make the heights of the protrudingparts 10 in therespective bump structures 100 uniform. By doing so, it is possible to make the heights of the plurality ofbump structures 100 uniform, so that when the IC chip and the circuit board are mounted via a plurality of thebump structures 100, it is possible to make the distance between the IC chip and the circuit board uniform. As a result, it is possible to efficiently use the light emitted from the light element or to efficiently guide light to the light element. - In this case, when the protruding
part precursors 10 a are formed by discharging the droplets using the ink jet method, it is possible to form many protrudingpart precursors 10 a at the same time. By doing so, it is possible to efficiently form thebump structures 100, so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced. -
FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing abump structure 200 according to another embodiment of the invention.FIG. 6 is a plan view schematically showing thebump structure 200 shown inFIG. 5 . It should be noted thatFIG. 5 shows a cross-section taken along a line A-A inFIG. 6 . - The construction of the
bump structure 200 according to the embodiment differs to that of the bump structure 100 (seeFIG. 1 andFIG. 2 ) according to the first embodiment in that part of aprotruding part 110 is buried inside a recessedpart 22 provided in the substrate (the insulating layer 20). That is, in thebump structure 200, the recessedpart 22 is provided in the insulatinglayer 20. The other component elements have the same constructions as in thebump structure 100 according to the first embodiment. Accordingly, in thebump structure 200 according to the embodiment, component elements that are the same as in thebump structure 100 have been assigned the same reference numerals as the component elements of the first embodiment and detailed description thereof has been omitted. - The
bump structure 200 according to the embodiment includes the recessedpart 22 that is provided in a substrate (the insulating layer 20), the protrudingpart 110 that is partially buried in the recessedpart 22 and theconductive layer 30 that is provided on theprotruding part 110. - In the
bump structure 200 according to the embodiment, an example where the substrate is the insulatinglayer 20 is shown, although the material of the substrate is not limited to this, and the substrate may be made of other materials (for example, a conductive layer such as a metal, or a semiconductor substrate such as a silicon substrate or a compound semiconductor substrate). This is also the case for the bump structures of the third to fifth embodiments described in greater detail below. - The recessed
part 22 is composed of abase surface 22 a and aside wall 22 b. The protrudingpart 110 is provided on thebase surface 22 a of the recessedpart 22. Atop part 110 c of theprotruding part 110 is at a higher position than a highest part of the recessedpart 22. In the embodiment, the highest part of the recessedpart 22 is the join between theside wall 22 b of the recessedpart 22 and theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20. InFIG. 5 , a plane including theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20 is shown as the plane “X”. The above means that thetop part 110 c of theprotruding part 110 is at a higher position than the plane X. In other words, a height h1 of theprotruding part 110 is greater than a depth h2 of the recessed part 22 (seeFIG. 5 ). - In the
bump structure 200 according to the present embodiment, the case is shown where thebase surface 22 a of the recessedpart 22 is generally circular, but it should be understood that the shape of thebase surface 22 a of the recessedpart 22 is not limited to this, and may be a variety of shapes, such as an oval or a rectangle. By selecting the shape of the base surface of the recessed part as appropriate, it is possible to control the shape of theprotruding part 110. - Next, a method of manufacturing the
bump structure 200 shown inFIG. 5 andFIG. 6 will be described with reference toFIG. 7 (a) toFIG. 7 (d).FIG. 7 (a) to 7(d) are cross-sectional views respectively showing manufacturing processes of thebump structure 200 shown inFIG. 5 andFIG. 6 . - First the recessed
part 22 is formed in the substrate (the insulating layer 20) (seeFIG. 7 (a) andFIG. 7 (b)). More specifically, normal photolithography is used to form a resist layer R1 with a predetermined pattern on the insulating layer 20 (seeFIG. 7 (a)). This resist layer R1 includes anopening 122 in a region in which the recessedpart 22 will be formed by a later process. Next, by patterning the substrate (the insulating layer 20) with the resist layer R1 as a mask, the recessedpart 22 including thebase surface 22 a and theside wall 22 b is formed (seeFIG. 7 (b)). Next, the resist layer R1 is removed. - It should be noted that when the substrate is patterned, it is possible to select an appropriate method for the material and type of the substrate (for example, selective growth, dry etching, wet etching, and a lift-off method).
- Next, the
droplets 10 b are discharged onto thebase surface 22 a of the recessedpart 22 to form aprotruding part precursor 110 a, which is then hardened to form the protruding part 110 (seeFIG. 7 (c) andFIG. 7 (d)), and after this theconductive layer 30 is formed (seeFIGS. 5 and 6 ). The method for forming theprotruding part 110 and theconductive layer 30 is the same as for the protrudingpart 10 and theconductive layer 30 of the first embodiment. It should be noted that before theprotruding part precursor 110 a is discharged, a liquid-repelling treatment may be carried out on a region of theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20 aside from the region in which theprotruding part precursor 110 a is formed (i.e., a region of theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20 aside from the recessed part 22). - By carrying out the above process, the
bump structure 200 of the embodiment can be obtained (seeFIG. 5 andFIG. 6 ). - The
bump structure 200 according to the embodiment and the method of manufacturing the same have the same operation and effects as thebump structure 100 according to the first embodiment and the method of manufacturing the same. In addition, thebump structure 200 according to the present embodiment and the method of manufacturing the same have the following operation and effects. - First, by appropriately setting the shape and size of the
base surface 22 a of the recessedpart 22, it is possible to appropriately set the shape and size of theprotruding part 110. By doing so, it is possible to appropriately set the shape and size of thebump structure 200. - Secondly, part of the
protruding part 110 is buried in the recessedpart 22. As described above, this protrudingpart 110 is formed by discharging a liquid material, which can be hardened by applying energy, on the recessedpart 22 and hardening the liquid material. That is, by providing the recessedpart 22 in a predetermined position, it is possible to control the mounting position of theprotruding part 110. As a result, it is possible to obtain abump structure 200 whose mounting position has been controlled more strictly. -
FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing abump structure 300 according to another embodiment of the present invention.FIG. 9 is a plan view schematically showing thebump structure 300 shown inFIG. 8 . It should be noted thatFIG. 8 shows a cross-section taken along a line A-A inFIG. 9 . - The construction of the
bump structure 300 according to the embodiment differs to that of the bump structure 100 (seeFIG. 1 andFIG. 2 ) of the first embodiment in that aprotruding part 210 is formed on anupper surface 24 a of aprotrusion 24 provided on the substrate (the insulating layer 20). That is, in thebump structure 300, theprotrusion 24 is provided on the insulatinglayer 20. The other component elements have the same constructions as in thebump structure 100 of the first embodiment. Accordingly, in thebump structure 300 according to the present embodiment, component elements that are the same as in thebump structure 100 have been assigned the same reference numerals as the component elements of the first embodiment and detailed description thereof has been omitted. - The
bump structure 300 according to the embodiment can include theprotrusion 24 provided on the substrate (the insulating layer 20), the protrudingpart 210 that is provided on theupper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24, and theconductive layer 30 provided on theprotruding part 210. - In the
bump structure 300 of the embodiment, the case where theupper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24 is circular is shown, but it should be understood that the shape of theupper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24 is not limited to this and may be a variety of shapes, such as an oval or a rectangle. By selecting the shape of theupper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24 as appropriate, it is possible to control the shape of theprotruding part 210. - Next, a method of manufacturing the
bump structure 300 shown inFIG. 8 andFIG. 9 will be described with reference toFIG. 10 (a) toFIG. 10 (d).FIG. 10 (a) to 10(d) are cross-sectional views respectively showing manufacturing processes of thebump structure 300 shown inFIG. 8 andFIG. 9 . - First, the
protrusion 24 is formed on the substrate (the insulating layer 20) (seeFIG. 10 (a) andFIG. 10 (b)). More specifically, common photolithography is used to form a resist layer R2 with a predetermined pattern on the insulating layer 20 (seeFIG. 10 (a)). This resist layer R2 is formed on at least a region in which theprotrusion 24 is formed in a later process. Next, by patterning the substrate (the insulating layer 20) with the resist layer R2 as a mask, theprotrusion 24 is formed (seeFIG. 10 (b)). It should be noted that as the basic method of patterning, it is possible to use the method described in the process for forming the recessedpart 22 in the second embodiment described above. Next, the resist layer R2 is removed. - Next, the
droplets 10 b are discharged onto theupper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24 to form aprotruding part precursor 210 a, which is then hardened to form the protruding part 210 (seeFIG. 10 (c) andFIG. 10 (d)), and after this theconductive layer 30 is formed (seeFIG. 8 andFIG. 9 ). The method for forming theprotruding part 210 and theconductive layer 30 is the same as for the protrudingpart 10 and theconductive layer 30 of the first embodiment. It should be noted that before theprotruding part precursor 210 a is discharged, a liquid-repelling treatment may be carried out on a region of theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20 aside from the region in which theprotruding part precursor 210 a is formed (i.e., a region of theupper surface 20 a of the insulatinglayer 20 aside from theupper surface 24 a of the protrusion 24). - By carrying out the above process, it is possible to obtain the
bump structure 300 of the embodiment (seeFIG. 8 andFIG. 9 ). - The
bump structure 300 according to the embodiment and the method of manufacturing the same have the same operation and effects as thebump structure 100 according to the first embodiment and the method of manufacturing the same. - In addition, the
bump structure 300 according to the embodiment and the method of manufacturing the same have the following operation and effects. - First, by appropriately setting the shape and size of the
upper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24, it is possible to appropriately set the shape and size of theprotruding part 210. By doing so, it is possible to appropriately set the shape and size of thebump structure 300. - Secondly, as described above, this protruding
part 210 is formed by discharging a liquid material, which can be hardened by applying energy, on theupper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24 and hardening the liquid material. That is, by providing theprotrusion 24 in a predetermined position, it is possible to control the mounting position of theprotruding part 210. As a result, it is possible to obtain abump structure 300 whose mounting position has been strictly controlled. -
FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing abump structure 400 according to another embodiment of the present invention.FIG. 12 is a plan view schematically showing thebump structure 400 shown inFIG. 1 . It should be noted thatFIG. 11 shows a cross-section taken along a line A-A inFIG. 12 . - The construction of the
bump structure 400 according to the embodiment differs to that of the bump structure 300 (seeFIG. 8 andFIG. 9 ) of the third embodiment in that a maximum width d1 of a cross-section of theprotruding part 310 is larger than a maximum width d2 of theupper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24 and in that aconductive layer 130 is electrically connected to anelectrode connecting part 60. In other words, in the bump structure according to the third embodiment, the case in which the maximum width (maximum diameter) d1 of the cross-section of theprotruding part 210 is equal to the maximum width (diameter) d2 of theupper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24 is shown. - The other component elements have the same constructions as in the
bump structure 300 according to the third embodiment. Accordingly, in thebump structure 400 according to the present embodiment, component elements that are the same as in thebump structure 300 have been assigned the same reference numerals as the component elements of the third embodiment and detailed description thereof has been omitted. - In the
bump structure 400 of the embodiment, theconductive layer 130 is composed of the material given as an example of the material of theconductive layer 30 of the first embodiment. Theconductive layer 130 can be formed by forming a conductive layer (not shown) on a protruding part 410 and the insulatinglayer 20 by anisotropic sputtering from a direction shown by an arrow inFIG. 13 and then patterning the conductive layer in a predetermined shape. - Also, in this
bump structure 400, theconductive layer 130 is electrically connected to theelectrode connecting part 60. Theelectrode connecting part 60 is an electrode of the element (for example, a semiconductor element). More specifically, as shown inFIG. 11 andFIG. 12 , theconductive layer 130 extends over theelectrode connecting part 60. It should be noted that the other embodiments are the same as thebump structure 400 according to the present embodiment in that it is possible to electrically connect theconductive layer 30 to the electrode connecting part. - The
bump structure 400 according to the embodiment has the same operation and effects as thebump structure 300 according to the third embodiment. - In addition, with the
bump structure 400 according to the present embodiment, the maximum width (maximum diameter) d1 of the cross section of theprotruding part 310 is larger than the maximum width (diameter) d2 of theupper surface 24 a of theprotrusion 24. This means that when two substrates (for example, an IC chip and a circuit board) are mounted on one another via thebump structure 400, the distance between the two substrates can be increased. By doing so, in the case where an underfill material or the like is introduced between the substrates after mounting, it becomes easy to introduce the underfill material between the substrates. -
FIG. 14 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a mountingstructure 500 according to another embodiment of the invention.FIG. 15 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a method of manufacturing the mountingstructure 500 shown inFIG. 14 . - The mounting
structure 500 according to the invention is composed of acircuit board 90 and anIC chip 70. Thecircuit board 90 and theIC chip 70 are electrically connected viabump structures 300 according to the third embodiment. - It should be noted that in the mounting
structure 500, thebump structures 300 are formed on thecircuit board 90, but it is also possible for thebump structures 300 to be formed on theIC chip 70 instead. Also, in the mountingstructure 500, it is possible to provide the bump structures according to the first, second, or fourth embodiments in place of thebump structures 300. - In the present embodiment, although the case where the
circuit board 90 is composed of the insulatinglayer 20 is shown, the material of thecircuit board 90 is not limited to an insulating layer. When thecircuit board 90 is composed of an insulating layer, thecircuit board 90 may be composed of a glass substrate or a glass-epoxy substrate, for example. In addition, a wiring layer (here the conductive layer 30) is formed on the surface of thecircuit board 90.
