Definitions
- the present application relates to a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device.
- a semiconductor element such as a silicon semiconductor or a compound semiconductor is mounted on a semiconductor device for high-frequency communication. Electrodes are formed on the back surface of these semiconductor elements by metallizing, and in the case of a general semiconductor device, the back surface electrodes and the package are bonded by a bonding material such as solder or a conductive paste. These bonding materials are a path for releasing the heat generated by the semiconductor element to a cooling mechanism such as a heat sink, and as described above, high thermal conductivity is desired in order to efficiently release the increasingly increasing heat generation.
- Sintered bonding can be performed at a temperature much lower than the metal melting point by utilizing the particle size effect or the reaction of organic components and solvents that coat the particle surface, and after sintering, it becomes a bulk metal. It is characterized by having similar thermal conductivity and heat resistance. Conventionally, a via hole has been used to electrically connect an electrode pad on the surface of a semiconductor element and a ground (GND).

また、例えば高周波通信用の半導体装置110において、高周波特性の整合を取るための回路基板2が接合層15を介してヒートシンク6に接続されている。回路基板2は、例えば、セラミック基板に薄膜パターン加工したマイクロ波集積回路(MIC:Microwave Integrated Circuit)基板である。

図4A、図4Bに示すように、半導体素子1の裏面およびビアホール12の表層には、金(Au)めっき層などの導電層14が形成されている。電極パッド7とヒートシンク6とは、ビアホール12の表層に形成された導電層14により接続されている。一般的に、導電層14は、半導体素子1の裏面全体に対して例えば金(Au)めっきを施し、開口部であるビアホール12内部にAu層を成膜することで形成される。ヒートシンク6と半導体素子1の裏面に形成された金(Au)めっき層などの導電層14とは、接合層15を介して接続されている。 FIG. 4A is a plan view showing the back surface of the semiconductor element of the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. Further, FIG. 4B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB of FIG.
As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, aconductive layer 14 such as a gold (Au) plating layer is formed on the back surface of the semiconductor element 1 and the surface layer of the via hole 12. The electrode pad 7 and the heat sink 6 are connected by a conductive layer 14 formed on the surface layer of the via hole 12. Generally, the conductive layer 14 is formed by subjecting the entire back surface of the semiconductor element 1 to, for example, gold (Au) plating, and forming an Au layer inside the via hole 12 which is an opening. The heat sink 6 and the conductive layer 14 such as the gold (Au) plating layer formed on the back surface of the semiconductor element 1 are connected via the bonding layer 15.
図4A、図4Bに示すように、半導体素子1の裏面およびビアホール12の表層には、金(Au)めっき層などの導電層14が形成されている。電極パッド7とヒートシンク6とは、ビアホール12の表層に形成された導電層14により接続されている。一般的に、導電層14は、半導体素子1の裏面全体に対して例えば金(Au)めっきを施し、開口部であるビアホール12内部にAu層を成膜することで形成される。ヒートシンク6と半導体素子1の裏面に形成された金(Au)めっき層などの導電層14とは、接合層15を介して接続されている。 FIG. 4A is a plan view showing the back surface of the semiconductor element of the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. Further, FIG. 4B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB of FIG.
As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, a
従来のはんだを用いた接合方法では、ビアホール内部に充填されたはんだが加熱の際に電極パッドの表面にまで這い上がる現象が起きるため、はんだの這い上がりを防ぐために導体層であるAuめっき層の表層に更にニッケル膜などのバリアメタルを形成していた。しかしながら、耐熱性に優れた金属焼結材を用いた接合方法が検討されており、その場合、金属焼結材ペーストとニッケル膜などのバリアメタルとは相性が悪く、焼結接合しにくいことが分かっている。結果として、ビアホール周辺の接合部分の形状が変形し、温度サイクル試験時に変形した接合部分を起点にしたクラックが発生するなどの問題点があった。一方で、ニッケル膜などのバリアメタルがなく、金属焼結材ペーストがビアホール内部に充填されると、加熱焼結時の熱収縮によってAuめっき層の剥がれ、または場合によっては半導体素子の割れなどが発生する問題があった。
In the conventional joining method using solder, the solder filled inside the via hole crawls up to the surface of the electrode pad when heated. Therefore, in order to prevent the solder from crawl up, the Au plating layer, which is a conductor layer, is used. A barrier metal such as a nickel film was further formed on the surface layer. However, a joining method using a metal sintered material having excellent heat resistance has been studied, and in that case, the metal sintered material paste and the barrier metal such as a nickel film are incompatible with each other, and it may be difficult to perform sintering bonding. I know. As a result, there is a problem that the shape of the joint portion around the via hole is deformed and cracks are generated starting from the deformed joint portion during the temperature cycle test. On the other hand, if there is no barrier metal such as a nickel film and the metal sintered material paste is filled inside the via hole, the Au plating layer may peel off due to heat shrinkage during heat sintering, or the semiconductor element may crack in some cases. There was a problem that occurred.
そこで、実施の形態1による半導体装置110では、図4Bに示すように、半導体素子1の裏面電極16側に耐熱性樹脂13をバンプ状に形成することにより、ビアホール12の裏面電極16側を耐熱性樹脂13により被覆している。つまり、耐熱性樹脂13は、ビアホール12の裏面電極16側に耐熱性樹脂バンプとして設けられるとともにビアホール12の内部にも充填されている。耐熱性樹脂13は、比較的ヤング率が高く硬い樹脂であるエポキシ系または比較的柔らかく熱応力による変形を吸収することができるシリコーン系など半導体装置110の動作温度で溶融しない耐熱性を有する樹脂であればよい。耐熱性樹脂13は、ガラス転移温度または半導体素子1の裏面電極16との濡れなどを考慮して適宜選定することが可能である。
また、耐熱性樹脂13として金属粒子を含有した耐熱性樹脂を用いてもよい。この場合は、ビアホール12内部の金属粒子と接合層15となる金属焼結材ペースト15aとが焼結接合することで、更なる接合性の改善効果も見込まれる。 Therefore, in thesemiconductor device 110 according to the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4B, the heat-resistant resin 13 is formed in a bump shape on the back electrode 16 side of the semiconductor element 1 to heat-heat the back electrode 16 side of the via hole 12. It is covered with the sex resin 13. That is, the heat-resistant resin 13 is provided as a heat-resistant resin bump on the back surface electrode 16 side of the via hole 12, and is also filled inside the via hole 12. The heat-resistant resin 13 is a resin having heat resistance that does not melt at the operating temperature of the semiconductor device 110, such as an epoxy-based resin that has a relatively high Young's modulus and is a hard resin, or a silicone-based resin that is relatively soft and can absorb deformation due to thermal stress. All you need is. The heat-resistant resin 13 can be appropriately selected in consideration of the glass transition temperature, the wetting of the semiconductor element 1 with the back surface electrode 16, and the like.
Further, as the heat-resistant resin 13, a heat-resistant resin containing metal particles may be used. In this case, the metal particles inside the via hole 12 and the metal sintered material paste 15a serving as the bonding layer 15 are sintered and bonded, so that a further effect of improving the bondability can be expected.
また、耐熱性樹脂13として金属粒子を含有した耐熱性樹脂を用いてもよい。この場合は、ビアホール12内部の金属粒子と接合層15となる金属焼結材ペースト15aとが焼結接合することで、更なる接合性の改善効果も見込まれる。 Therefore, in the
Further, as the heat-
図5A、図5Bは、実施の形態1による半導体装置のビアホール周辺の拡大断面図である。図5Aおよび図5Bに示すように、耐熱性樹脂13と金属焼結材ペースト15aは、基本的に焼結接合しない。そのため、半導体素子1の裏面電極16と耐熱性樹脂13とが接する角度が30度以下となるほど、未接合領域が半導体素子1の裏面電極16と金属焼結材ペースト15aの間の切り口のようになり、温度サイクル寿命に影響する。
実施の形態1では、図5Aに示すように、半導体素子1の裏面電極16と耐熱性樹脂13とが接する角度θ1が30度よりも大きくなるように耐熱性樹脂13をバンプ状に形成している。角度θ1は、耐熱性樹脂13の端部における接線17と裏面電極16とが交差する角度である。半導体素子1の裏面電極16に濡れにくい樹脂材料を選定し、裏面電極16と耐熱性樹脂13とが接する角度θ1が30度よりも大きくなるようにすることで、未接合領域が鋭利な切り口にならないため、そこを起点に発生するクラックを抑制することが可能となる。
さらに、耐熱性樹脂バンプの突起部分の高さH1を制御することで、突起部分がスペーサーの役割を果たすこととなり、接合層15の厚さを確保できる。 5A and 5B are enlarged cross-sectional views of the periphery of the via hole of the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, the heat-resistant resin 13 and the metal sintered material paste 15a are basically not sintered and joined. Therefore, as the angle of contact between the back electrode 16 of the semiconductor element 1 and the heat-resistant resin 13 becomes 30 degrees or less, the unbonded region becomes like a cut between the back electrode 16 of the semiconductor element 1 and the metal sintered material paste 15a. It affects the temperature cycle life.
In the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5A, the heat-resistant resin 13 is formed in a bump shape so that the angle θ1 at which the back electrode 16 of the semiconductor element 1 and the heat-resistant resin 13 come into contact with each other is larger than 30 degrees. There is. The angle θ1 is an angle at which the tangent line 17 and the back surface electrode 16 at the end of the heat-resistant resin 13 intersect. By selecting a resin material that does not easily get wet with the back electrode 16 of the semiconductor element 1 and making the angle θ1 between the back electrode 16 and the heat-resistant resin 13 larger than 30 degrees, the unbonded region becomes a sharp cut. Therefore, it is possible to suppress cracks generated from that point.
Further, by controlling the height H1 of the protruding portion of the heat-resistant resin bump, the protruding portion serves as a spacer, and the thickness of thebonding layer 15 can be secured.
実施の形態1では、図5Aに示すように、半導体素子1の裏面電極16と耐熱性樹脂13とが接する角度θ1が30度よりも大きくなるように耐熱性樹脂13をバンプ状に形成している。角度θ1は、耐熱性樹脂13の端部における接線17と裏面電極16とが交差する角度である。半導体素子1の裏面電極16に濡れにくい樹脂材料を選定し、裏面電極16と耐熱性樹脂13とが接する角度θ1が30度よりも大きくなるようにすることで、未接合領域が鋭利な切り口にならないため、そこを起点に発生するクラックを抑制することが可能となる。
さらに、耐熱性樹脂バンプの突起部分の高さH1を制御することで、突起部分がスペーサーの役割を果たすこととなり、接合層15の厚さを確保できる。 5A and 5B are enlarged cross-sectional views of the periphery of the via hole of the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, the heat-
In the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5A, the heat-
Further, by controlling the height H1 of the protruding portion of the heat-resistant resin bump, the protruding portion serves as a spacer, and the thickness of the
また、図5Bに示すように、半導体素子1の裏面電極16と耐熱性樹脂13とが接する角度θ2を90度以上とすることで、より未接合領域を起点としたクラックを抑制することが可能になる。角度θ2は、耐熱性樹脂13の端部における接線17と裏面電極16とが交差する角度である。
一方で、角度θ2が90度以上になるように耐熱性樹脂13を形成する場合、半導体素子1の裏面電極16に濡れやすい樹脂材料を選定する必要がある。また、突起部分の高さH2が小さくなるため、突起部分のスペーサーとしての役割が低減する。
したがって、半導体素子1の裏面電極16と耐熱性樹脂13とが接する角度θ1または角度θ2に関しては、半導体装置110の各種用途に必要な接合層15の膜厚を考慮して決定すればよい。
また、耐熱性樹脂13は、焼結時の熱収縮による応力が最も加わるビアホール12の開口部を少なくとも覆っていればよい。ただし、ビアホール12の内部に耐熱性樹脂13が充填されているほど、温度サイクル時の熱応力を耐熱性樹脂13が緩和するため、内部を耐熱性樹脂13で充填している方がより望ましい。 Further, as shown in FIG. 5B, by setting the angle θ2 at which theback surface electrode 16 of the semiconductor element 1 and the heat-resistant resin 13 are in contact with each other at 90 degrees or more, it is possible to further suppress cracks starting from the unbonded region. become. The angle θ2 is an angle at which the tangent line 17 and the back surface electrode 16 at the end of the heat-resistant resin 13 intersect.
On the other hand, when the heat-resistant resin 13 is formed so that the angle θ2 is 90 degrees or more, it is necessary to select a resin material that easily gets wet with the back electrode 16 of the semiconductor element 1. Further, since the height H2 of the protruding portion is reduced, the role of the protruding portion as a spacer is reduced.
Therefore, the angle θ1 or the angle θ2 at which theback electrode 16 of the semiconductor element 1 and the heat-resistant resin 13 come into contact with each other may be determined in consideration of the film thickness of the bonding layer 15 required for various uses of the semiconductor device 110.
Further, the heat-resistant resin 13 may at least cover the opening of the via hole 12 to which the stress due to heat shrinkage during sintering is most applied. However, the more the heat-resistant resin 13 is filled inside the via hole 12, the more the heat-resistant resin 13 relaxes the thermal stress during the temperature cycle. Therefore, it is more desirable that the inside is filled with the heat-resistant resin 13.
一方で、角度θ2が90度以上になるように耐熱性樹脂13を形成する場合、半導体素子1の裏面電極16に濡れやすい樹脂材料を選定する必要がある。また、突起部分の高さH2が小さくなるため、突起部分のスペーサーとしての役割が低減する。
したがって、半導体素子1の裏面電極16と耐熱性樹脂13とが接する角度θ1または角度θ2に関しては、半導体装置110の各種用途に必要な接合層15の膜厚を考慮して決定すればよい。
また、耐熱性樹脂13は、焼結時の熱収縮による応力が最も加わるビアホール12の開口部を少なくとも覆っていればよい。ただし、ビアホール12の内部に耐熱性樹脂13が充填されているほど、温度サイクル時の熱応力を耐熱性樹脂13が緩和するため、内部を耐熱性樹脂13で充填している方がより望ましい。 Further, as shown in FIG. 5B, by setting the angle θ2 at which the

図6は、実施の形態1による半導体装置の製造方法を示す断面図である。図6において、6Aに示すように、まず、半導体素子1の裏面に耐熱性樹脂をディスペンス装置などで塗布、キュアすることで耐熱性樹脂13を形成する。続いて、図6の6Bに示すように、ヒートシンク6の表面上に金属焼結材ペースト15aをディスペンス装置もしくは印刷にて塗布し、6Aにおいて準備した半導体素子1を金属焼結材ペースト15aの上に搭載して200℃以上に加熱することで焼結させる。これにより、図6の6Cに示すように、ヒートシンク6上に接合層15が形成される。
続いて、図6の6Dに示すように、電子部品である回路基板2と半導体素子1と外部接続用のリード4間をボンディングワイヤ3によって電気的に接続する。最後に、トランスファーモールドにより樹脂封止する。以上のプロセスを経て、実施の形態1の半導体装置110が作製される。 FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. In FIG. 6, as shown in 6A, first, the heat-resistant resin 13 is formed by applying and curing the heat-resistant resin on the back surface of the semiconductor element 1 with a dispensing device or the like. Subsequently, as shown in 6B of FIG. 6, the metal sintered material paste 15a is applied onto the surface of the heat sink 6 by a dispensing device or printing, and the semiconductor element 1 prepared in 6A is applied onto the metal sintered material paste 15a. It is sintered by mounting it on a device and heating it to 200 ° C. or higher. As a result, as shown in 6C of FIG. 6, the bonding layer 15 is formed on the heat sink 6.
Subsequently, as shown in 6D of FIG. 6, thecircuit board 2 which is an electronic component, the semiconductor element 1, and the lead 4 for external connection are electrically connected by the bonding wire 3. Finally, the resin is sealed by a transfer mold. Through the above process, the semiconductor device 110 of the first embodiment is manufactured.
続いて、図6の6Dに示すように、電子部品である回路基板2と半導体素子1と外部接続用のリード4間をボンディングワイヤ3によって電気的に接続する。最後に、トランスファーモールドにより樹脂封止する。以上のプロセスを経て、実施の形態1の半導体装置110が作製される。 FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. In FIG. 6, as shown in 6A, first, the heat-

また、ヒートシンク6として銅(Cu)製のヒートシンクを用いた事例を示したが、ヒートシンク6は、半導体素子1の動作によって発生する熱を逃がす機能があればよく、銅(Cu)製に限定されない。例えば、ヒートシンク6として、鉄、タングステン、モリブデン、ニッケル、コバルト、これらの合金、又はこれらの複合材料を用いてもよい。熱伝導率の高いヒートシンク材を用いることにより、半導体素子1から発生する熱を効率よく外に逃がすことができ、接合層15に加わる熱応力歪みを低減できる。
また、ヒートシンク6の形状は、四角柱の他、多角柱、円柱、楕円柱、これらの一部に段差を設けた形状であってもよい。 Further, although an example in which a heat sink made of copper (Cu) is used as theheat sink 6, the heat sink 6 is not limited to the one made of copper (Cu) as long as it has a function of dissipating heat generated by the operation of the semiconductor element 1. .. For example, as the heat sink 6, iron, tungsten, molybdenum, nickel, cobalt, alloys thereof, or a composite material thereof may be used. By using the heat sink material having high thermal conductivity, the heat generated from the semiconductor element 1 can be efficiently released to the outside, and the thermal stress strain applied to the bonding layer 15 can be reduced.
Further, the shape of theheat sink 6 may be a square pillar, a polygonal pillar, a cylinder, an elliptical pillar, or a shape in which a step is provided in a part thereof.

Further, the shape of the
また、ヒートシンク6として銅(Cu)製のヒートシンク単体を用いた事例を示したが、複数枚の異なる金属を重ねて用いても良い。例えば、半導体素子1と比較して熱膨張係数の大きい銅(Cu)製のヒートシンク6の上に、半導体素子1に比較的近い熱膨張係数を有するタングステン製のヒートシンク6を搭載することで、半導体素子1とその直下のヒートシンク6との熱膨張係数のミスマッチを低減することができ、接合層15に加わる熱応力歪みを低減することができる。
また、ヒートシンク6には、金(Au)めっきが施されているが、金(Au)以外にも各金属焼結材と相性の良い金属めっきであってもよく、銅(Cu)製のヒートシンク6との接合性が確保できるようであれば金属めっきがなくでも構わない。さらに、実施の形態1では、半導体素子1をヒートシンク6などの基材に搭載する事例を示したが、例えば絶縁基板などの基材に搭載されてもよい。
また、封止樹脂5との密着性を向上させる必要があれば、金属めっき表面に荒らした粗化めっきなど施してもよい。 Further, although an example in which a single copper (Cu) heat sink is used as theheat sink 6, a plurality of different metals may be stacked and used. For example, a heat sink 6 made of tungsten having a thermal expansion coefficient relatively close to that of the semiconductor element 1 is mounted on a heat sink 6 made of copper (Cu) having a larger thermal expansion coefficient than that of the semiconductor element 1. The mismatch of the thermal expansion coefficient between the element 1 and the heat sink 6 immediately below the element 1 can be reduced, and the thermal stress strain applied to the bonding layer 15 can be reduced.
Further, although theheat sink 6 is plated with gold (Au), it may be metal-plated which is compatible with each metal sintered material other than gold (Au), and is a heat sink made of copper (Cu). Metal plating may not be required as long as the bondability with 6 can be ensured. Further, in the first embodiment, the case where the semiconductor element 1 is mounted on a base material such as a heat sink 6 is shown, but it may be mounted on a base material such as an insulating substrate.
Further, if it is necessary to improve the adhesion with the sealingresin 5, roughened rough plating or the like may be applied to the metal plating surface.
また、ヒートシンク6には、金(Au)めっきが施されているが、金(Au)以外にも各金属焼結材と相性の良い金属めっきであってもよく、銅(Cu)製のヒートシンク6との接合性が確保できるようであれば金属めっきがなくでも構わない。さらに、実施の形態1では、半導体素子1をヒートシンク6などの基材に搭載する事例を示したが、例えば絶縁基板などの基材に搭載されてもよい。

なお、ここでは、半導体素子1として、シリコン製の半導体素子1を事例として説明したが、その他の半導体素子1として、例えば、化合物半導体であるガリウムアーセナイド(GaAs)、窒化ガリウム(GaN)などを用いてもよい。窒化ガリウム(GaN)は、高い電子速度、ワイドバンドギャップによる高い絶縁破壊電圧、大電力動作可能、広い動作帯域幅、高温動作可能のため小型化、低コスト化といった様々なメリットを有している。

窒化ガリウム(GaN)を用いた半導体素子1のような高温動作が求められる半導体装置110においては、従来のはんだと比較して高い熱伝導率を有する金属焼結材ペースト15aが有効である。金属焼結材ペースト15aは、一般的にサブミクロン、ナノサイズまたはそれらを混合した金属粒子と、粒子表面を覆っている保護膜と、粒子を分散させる溶剤とを有している。また、球体だけでなく、フレーク状または球体に針状で覆われたものなど様々な形状もある。約200℃の低温で焼結すると、保護膜または溶剤が全て揮発し、ネッキング焼結した金属粒子のみの接合層15となる。そのため、バルクの金属に近い熱伝導率、耐熱性を有する。必要な焼結温度は、金属粒子のサイズまたはペーストに含まれる焼結促進剤などによって異なっており、常温での焼結も可能である。
一般的に、焼結温度と焼結時間によって、金属粒子同士の焼結または、金属粒子と被接合体との焼結が進行していくため、半導体装置110の各種用途に必要な接合信頼性を考慮して焼結プロセスを決定すればよい。 In thesemiconductor device 110 that requires high-temperature operation such as the semiconductor element 1 using gallium nitride (GaN), the metal sintered material paste 15a having a higher thermal conductivity than the conventional solder is effective. The metal sintered material paste 15a generally has submicron, nano-sized or mixed metal particles, a protective film covering the particle surface, and a solvent for dispersing the particles. In addition to spheres, there are various shapes such as flakes or spheres covered with needles. When sintered at a low temperature of about 200 ° C., the protective film or solvent is completely volatilized to form a bonding layer 15 containing only neck-sintered metal particles. Therefore, it has thermal conductivity and heat resistance close to those of bulk metal. The required sintering temperature varies depending on the size of the metal particles, the sintering accelerator contained in the paste, and the like, and sintering at room temperature is also possible.
In general, the sintering of metal particles or the sintering of metal particles and an object to be joined progresses depending on the sintering temperature and the sintering time. Therefore, the joining reliability required for various applications of thesemiconductor device 110 is required. The sintering process may be determined in consideration of.

なお、金属焼結材ペースト15aは、銀(Ag)焼結材、銅(Cu)焼結材、金(Au)焼結材、パラジウム(Pd)焼結材、白金(Pt)焼結材等の貴金属に分類される金属をベースにした焼結材、ニッケル(Ni)焼結材等の貴金属以外に分類される金属粒子をベースにした焼結材、酸化銀焼結材、酸化銅焼結等の微細な酸化物を還元し金属微粒子を形成することで焼結反応を得る焼結材、銀(Ag)‐パラジウム(Pd)焼結材、金(Au)‐シリコン(Si)焼結材、金(Au)‐ゲルマニウム(Ge)焼結材、金(Au)‐銅(Cu)焼結材等の合金をベースにした焼結材ペースト等を用いればよい。
The metal sintered material paste 15a includes a silver (Ag) sintered material, a copper (Cu) sintered material, a gold (Au) sintered material, a palladium (Pd) sintered material, a platinum (Pt) sintered material, and the like. Sintered materials based on metals classified as precious metals, sintered materials based on metal particles classified other than precious metals such as nickel (Ni) sintered materials, silver oxide sintered materials, copper oxide sintered materials Sintered material that obtains a sintering reaction by reducing fine oxides such as, etc. to form metal fine particles, silver (Ag) -palladium (Pd) sintered material, gold (Au) -silicon (Si) sintered material , A sintered material paste based on an alloy such as a gold (Au) -germanium (Ge) sintered material or a gold (Au) -copper (Cu) sintered material may be used.
また、半導体装置110の各種用途によって必要な接合信頼性は異なるが、接合層15の厚さは、30μmt以上を確保することが好ましく、より温度サイクル試験に対する寿命を向上できる。接合層15をより厚くすることで、温度サイクル試験に対する寿命をさらに向上させることが可能であるが、熱伝導率(200W/mK以上)の高い金属焼結材ペースト15aを用いているとはいえ、接合層15を厚くすることで熱抵抗および部材コストが増加するため、半導体装置110の熱設計を考慮してその厚さを決定すればよい。
また、裏面電極16側に形成された耐熱性樹脂13の膜厚は、半導体素子1の厚みの1/10以上であればよい。 Further, although the required bonding reliability varies depending on various uses of thesemiconductor device 110, the thickness of the bonding layer 15 is preferably 30 μmt or more, and the life for the temperature cycle test can be further improved. By making the bonding layer 15 thicker, it is possible to further improve the life for the temperature cycle test, but even though the metal sintered material paste 15a having a high thermal conductivity (200 W / mK or more) is used. Since the thermal resistance and the member cost increase by increasing the thickness of the bonding layer 15, the thickness may be determined in consideration of the thermal design of the semiconductor device 110.
Further, the film thickness of the heat-resistant resin 13 formed on the back surface electrode 16 side may be 1/10 or more of the thickness of the semiconductor element 1.
また、裏面電極16側に形成された耐熱性樹脂13の膜厚は、半導体素子1の厚みの1/10以上であればよい。 Further, although the required bonding reliability varies depending on various uses of the

また、実施の形態1による半導体装置110は、封止樹脂5によって半導体素子1などが覆われているが、セラミックキャップまたはメタルキャップなどを接着、接合した中空構造であってもよい。中空構造を採用することで、半導体素子1の表面に誘電率の高い封止樹脂5が存在せず、高い高周波特性を得ることができる。
以上のように、実施の形態1による半導体装置110は、例えば電極パッド7等の表面電極と表面電極の反対側に設けられた裏面電極16との間にビアホール12が形成された半導体素子1と、ビアホール12の裏面電極16側を被覆する耐熱性樹脂13と、半導体素子1を搭載する例えばヒートシンク6等の基材と、金属焼結材を主成分として含み、半導体素子1と基材とを接合する接合層15と、を有している。 Further, although thesemiconductor device 110 according to the first embodiment is covered with the sealing resin 5 such as the semiconductor element 1, it may have a hollow structure in which a ceramic cap, a metal cap, or the like is adhered and joined. By adopting the hollow structure, the sealing resin 5 having a high dielectric constant does not exist on the surface of the semiconductor element 1, and high high frequency characteristics can be obtained.
As described above, thesemiconductor device 110 according to the first embodiment is the semiconductor element 1 in which the via hole 12 is formed between the front surface electrode such as the electrode pad 7 and the back surface electrode 16 provided on the opposite side of the front surface electrode. , A heat-resistant resin 13 that covers the back surface electrode 16 side of the via hole 12, a base material such as a heat sink 6 on which the semiconductor element 1 is mounted, and a metal sintered material as a main component, the semiconductor element 1 and the base material. It has a bonding layer 15 and a bonding layer 15 for bonding.

As described above, the
また、実施の形態1による半導体装置の製造方法は、例えば電極パッド7等の表面電極と表面電極の反対側に設けられた裏面電極16との間にビアホール12が形成された半導体素子1を準備する工程と、ビアホール12の裏面電極16側を被覆する耐熱性樹脂13を形成する工程と、基材の表面上に金属焼結材ペースト15aを塗布して、金属焼結材ペースト15aの上に半導体素子1を搭載する工程と、金属焼結材ペースト15aを加熱することにより、半導体素子1と基材とを金属焼結材を主成分として含む接合層15で接合する工程と、を有している。
これにより、実施の形態1による半導体装置110は、加熱焼結時の熱収縮による導電層14の剥がれ、または半導体素子1の割れなどを抑制することができるとともに、耐熱性樹脂13の突起部分の高さH1、H2を制御することで、突起部分がスペーサーの役割を果たすこととなり、接合層15の厚さを確保でき、温度サイクル試験に対する寿命を向上することができる。 Further, in the method for manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the first embodiment, for example, asemiconductor element 1 in which a via hole 12 is formed between a front surface electrode such as an electrode pad 7 and a back surface electrode 16 provided on the opposite side of the front surface electrode is prepared. The step of forming the heat-resistant resin 13 that covers the back surface electrode 16 side of the via hole 12, and the step of applying the metal sintered material paste 15a on the surface of the base material and on the metal sintered material paste 15a. It includes a step of mounting the semiconductor element 1 and a step of joining the semiconductor element 1 and the base material with a bonding layer 15 containing the metal sintered material as a main component by heating the metal sintered material paste 15a. ing.
As a result, thesemiconductor device 110 according to the first embodiment can suppress peeling of the conductive layer 14 or cracking of the semiconductor element 1 due to heat shrinkage during heat sintering, and also suppresses the protrusion portion of the heat-resistant resin 13. By controlling the heights H1 and H2, the protruding portion acts as a spacer, the thickness of the bonding layer 15 can be secured, and the life for the temperature cycle test can be improved.

Regarding the description of thesemiconductor device 110 according to the second embodiment, the same components as those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted as appropriate.
In the first embodiment, the structure in which the viahole 12 covered with the heat-resistant resin 13 is provided in the center of the semiconductor element 1 is illustrated, but the positions where the via hole 12 and the heat-resistant resin bump are formed are not limited to this. No.

実施の形態1では、耐熱性樹脂13で覆われたビアホール12が、半導体素子1の中央に設けられた構造について図示したが、ビアホール12および耐熱性樹脂バンプの形成位置はこれに限られるものではない。
FIG. 7 is a plan view showing the back surface of the semiconductor element of the semiconductor device according to the second embodiment. Regarding the description of the
In the first embodiment, the structure in which the via
図7の7Aに示すように、実施の形態2による半導体装置110の半導体素子1において、耐熱性樹脂13で覆われたビアホール12は、半導体素子1の中央および半導体素子1の外周端面の全周に形成されている。図7の7Aに示した配置が最も多くのビアホール12および耐熱性樹脂バンプが形成されるものであり、接合層15の厚さを最も確実に確保でき、半導体素子1の面内の高さのばらつきを最も小さくすることができる。そのため、図7の7Aに示す半導体素子1が搭載された半導体装置110は、安定的に高い信頼性が得られる。
As shown in 7A of FIG. 7, in the semiconductor element 1 of the semiconductor device 110 according to the second embodiment, the via hole 12 covered with the heat-resistant resin 13 is the center of the semiconductor element 1 and the entire circumference of the outer peripheral end surface of the semiconductor element 1. Is formed in. The arrangement shown in 7A of FIG. 7 forms the largest number of via holes 12 and heat-resistant resin bumps, the thickness of the bonding layer 15 can be secured most reliably, and the in-plane height of the semiconductor element 1 can be secured. The variation can be minimized. Therefore, the semiconductor device 110 on which the semiconductor element 1 shown in 7A of FIG. 7 is mounted can stably obtain high reliability.
特に、ディスペンス装置にて金属焼結材ペースト15aを例えばヒートシンク6等の基材に塗布し、半導体素子1をマウントする場合、中央に塗布した金属焼結材ペースト15aを外側に向かって押し拡げるため、半導体素子1の中央の接合層15が厚くなり、半導体素子1の外周端部になるほど接合層15の厚さが薄くなる。さらに、はんだ材とは異なり、金属焼結材ペースト15aは溶融して濡れ拡がることがないため、不均一な厚みのまま焼結接合が完了することが多い。温度サイクル時の応力歪みは、接合層15の外周端部に最も集中するため、接合層15の平均厚さは確保できていたとしても厚さ不均一により、薄くなった接合層15からクラックの発生、進展が生じてしまう。図7の7Aに示すように、実施の形態2による半導体装置110によれば、均一な厚みで接合層15が得られることによって、外周端部に発生する亀裂、進展を抑制することが可能となる。
In particular, when the metal sintered material paste 15a is applied to a base material such as a heat sink 6 by a dispensing device and the semiconductor element 1 is mounted, the metal sintered material paste 15a applied to the center is spread outward. The central bonding layer 15 of the semiconductor element 1 becomes thicker, and the thickness of the bonding layer 15 becomes thinner toward the outer peripheral end of the semiconductor element 1. Further, unlike the solder material, the metal sintered material paste 15a does not melt and spread wet, so that the sintered joint is often completed with a non-uniform thickness. Since the stress strain during the temperature cycle is most concentrated at the outer peripheral end of the joint layer 15, even if the average thickness of the joint layer 15 can be secured, the thickness is not uniform and the thinned joint layer 15 is cracked. Occurrence and progress will occur. As shown in 7A of FIG. 7, according to the semiconductor device 110 according to the second embodiment, it is possible to suppress cracks and growth generated at the outer peripheral end portion by obtaining the bonding layer 15 with a uniform thickness. Become.
また、ビアホール12の直下は、マウント時に金属焼結材ペースト15aを押し込む力が弱くなり、ビアホール12の直下がよりポーラスで疎な接合層になりやすい。ポーラスで疎な接合層は、強度的にも弱く、信頼性試験でのクラック発生の起点にもなりやすい。しかしながら、ビアホール12内部を耐熱性樹脂13で覆うことで、マウント時に金属焼結材ペースト15aを例えば外周端部などの他の領域と同様に押し込むことができ、均一で密な接合層15を得ることができる。
Further, directly under the via hole 12, the force for pushing the metal sintered material paste 15a at the time of mounting becomes weak, and the force directly under the via hole 12 tends to be a more porous and sparse bonding layer. The porous and sparse bonding layer is also weak in strength and tends to be a starting point for cracks in the reliability test. However, by covering the inside of the via hole 12 with the heat-resistant resin 13, the metal sintered material paste 15a can be pushed in in the same manner as other regions such as the outer peripheral end portion at the time of mounting, and a uniform and dense bonding layer 15 can be obtained. be able to.
図7の7Bおよび7Cに示すように、実施の形態2による半導体装置110の半導体素子1において、耐熱性樹脂13で覆われたビアホール12は、半導体素子1の中央および外周端面の対向する2辺を一対とした場合のいずれかの一対に形成されている。いずれか一対の2辺にのみにビアホール12および耐熱性樹脂13を形成したとしても、接合層15の厚さを確保することに問題はない。また、ビアホール12および耐熱性樹脂13が形成されていない一対の2辺から金属焼結材ペースト15aの焼結時に揮発した溶剤が外に抜けやすくなり、接合層15の内部に発生するボイドを抑制することができ、また熱収縮を促進させることでより密な接合層15を得られる。
As shown in 7B and 7C of FIG. 7, in the semiconductor element 1 of the semiconductor device 110 according to the second embodiment, the via hole 12 covered with the heat-resistant resin 13 is formed on two opposite sides of the central and outer peripheral end faces of the semiconductor element 1. Are formed in any pair when is paired with each other. Even if the via holes 12 and the heat-resistant resin 13 are formed only on any one pair of two sides, there is no problem in ensuring the thickness of the bonding layer 15. In addition, the solvent volatilized during the sintering of the metal sintering material paste 15a easily escapes from the pair of two sides on which the via hole 12 and the heat-resistant resin 13 are not formed, thereby suppressing voids generated inside the bonding layer 15. And by promoting heat shrinkage, a denser bonding layer 15 can be obtained.
図7の7Dに示すように、実施の形態2による半導体装置110の半導体素子1において、耐熱性樹脂13で覆われたビアホール12は、半導体素子1の中央および四隅に形成されている。7Dの構造が最もビアホール12および耐熱性樹脂13の数が少ないものの、最も揮発した溶剤が抜けやすくなり、最も密な接合層15を得ることができる。前述したビアホール12および耐熱性樹脂13の形成位置または数に関しては、各々の半導体装置110に求められる接合厚さ、ばらつき、接合層15の熱伝導率または接合層15内部の状態によって適宜決定すればよい。
As shown in 7D of FIG. 7, in the semiconductor element 1 of the semiconductor device 110 according to the second embodiment, the via holes 12 covered with the heat-resistant resin 13 are formed at the center and the four corners of the semiconductor element 1. Although the 7D structure has the smallest number of via holes 12 and heat-resistant resin 13, the most volatile solvent can be easily released, and the densest bonding layer 15 can be obtained. The positions or numbers of the via holes 12 and the heat-resistant resin 13 described above may be appropriately determined depending on the bonding thickness and variation required for each semiconductor device 110, the thermal conductivity of the bonding layer 15, or the state inside the bonding layer 15. good.
高周波通信用の半導体素子1は、高い高周波特性を得るために、一般的に長方形であることが多い。即ち、対の短辺と長辺が存在する。図7の7Bおよび7Cにおいて、半導体素子1のどちらか一対の2辺にのみに形成されたビアホール12および耐熱性樹脂13について説明したが、長方形の半導体素子1に関して、特に短辺側のみに形成することで高い信頼性を確保可能である。半導体素子1のアスペクト比により、半導体素子1の中心から外周端面までの距離を考えると長辺側から揮発した溶剤が優先的に抜けていくため、短辺側のみにビアホール12および耐熱性樹脂13を形成することで接合層15の厚さの確保とポーラス構造の抑制を効率よく実現することができる。
The semiconductor element 1 for high frequency communication is generally rectangular in order to obtain high high frequency characteristics. That is, there are a pair of short and long sides. In 7B and 7C of FIG. 7, the via holes 12 and the heat-resistant resin 13 formed only on either pair of two sides of the semiconductor element 1 have been described, but the rectangular semiconductor element 1 is formed only on the short side. By doing so, high reliability can be ensured. Considering the distance from the center of the semiconductor element 1 to the outer peripheral end surface due to the aspect ratio of the semiconductor element 1, the solvent volatilized from the long side is preferentially released. Therefore, the via hole 12 and the heat-resistant resin 13 are provided only on the short side. By forming the above, it is possible to efficiently secure the thickness of the bonding layer 15 and suppress the porous structure.
