    摘要: This description relates to a sensing product formed using a substrate with a plurality of epi-layers. At least a first epi-layer has a different composition than the composition of a second epi-layer. The sensing product optionally includes at least one radiation sensing element in the second epi-layer and optionally an interconnect structure over the second epi-layer. The sensing product is formed by removing the substrate and all epi-layers other than the second epi-layer. A light incident surface of the second epi-layer has a total thickness variation of less than about 0.15 μm.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for a backside illuminated (BSI) image sensor device are disclosed. A BSI sensor device is formed on a substrate comprising a photosensitive diode. The substrate may be thinned at the backside, then a B doped Epi-Si(Ge) layer may be formed on the backside surface of the substrate. Additional layers may be formed on the B doped Epi-Si(Ge) layer, such as a metal shield layer, a dielectric layer, a micro-lens, and a color filter.

    摘要: A method for forming a semiconductor structure includes forming a dielectric layer over a substrate. A first non-conductive barrier layer is formed over the dielectric layer. At least one opening is formed through the first non-conductive barrier layer and within the dielectric layer. A second non-conductive barrier layer is formed over the first non-conductive barrier layer and within the opening. At least a portion of the second non-conductive barrier layer is removed, thereby at least partially exposing a top surface of the first non-conductive barrier layer and a bottom surface of the opening, with the second non-conductive barrier layer remaining on sidewalls of the opening. A seed layer and conductive layer is then formed and a single polishing operation removes the seed layer and conductive layer.

    摘要: Electrochemical plating (ECP) apparatuses with auxiliary cathodes to create uniform electric flux density. An ECP apparatus for electrochemical deposition includes an electrochemical cell with an electrolyte bath for electrochemically depositing a metal on a substrate. A main cathode and an anode are disposed in the electrolyte bath to provide a main electrical field. A substrate holder assembly holds a semiconductor wafer connecting the cathode. An auxiliary cathode is disposed outside the electrochemical cell to provide an auxiliary electrical field such that a flux line density at the center region of the substrate holder assembly substantially equals that at the circumference of the substrate holder assembly.

    摘要: A method of electroplating a metal layer on a semiconductor device includes a sequence of biasing operations that includes a first electroplating step at a first current density followed by a second immersion step at a second current density being less than the first current density, and subsequent electroplating steps of increasing current densities beginning with a third electroplating step having a third current density that is greater than the first current density. The second, low current density immersion step improves the quality of the plating process and produces a plated film that completely fills openings such as vias and trenches and avoids hollow vias and pull-back on the bottom corners of via and trench openings. The low current density second immersion step produces an electrochemical deposition process that provides low contact resistance and therefore reduces device failure.
