摘要:
A device includes a first die having a first side and a second side opposite to first side, the first side includes a first region and a second region, and a first metal bump of a first horizontal size formed on the first region of the first side of the first die. A second die is bonded to the first side of the first die through the first metal bump. A dielectric layer is formed over the first side of the first die and includes a first portion directly over the second die, a second portion encircling the second die, and an opening exposing the second region of the first side of the first die. A second metal bump of a second horizontal size is formed on the second region of the first side of the first die and extending into the opening of the dielectric layer. The second horizontal size is greater than the first horizontal size. An electrical component is bonded to the first side of the first die through the second metal bump.

An integrated circuit structure includes a semiconductor substrate having a front side and a backside. A through-silicon via (TSV) penetrates the semiconductor substrate. The TSV has a back end extending to the backside of the semiconductor substrate. A redistribution line (RDL) is over the backside of the semiconductor substrate and connected to the back end of the TSV. A silicide layer is over and contacting the RDL.

A device and system for thin wafer cleaning is disclosed. A preferred embodiment comprises a spin chuck having at least three holding clamps. A thin wafer with a wafer frame is mounted on the spin chuck through a tape layer. When the holding clamps are unlocked, there is no interference with the removal and placement of the wafer frame. On the other hand, when the holding clamps are locked, the holding clamps are brought into contact with the outer edge of the wafer frame so as to prevent the wafer frame from moving laterally. Furthermore, the shape of the holding clamps in a locked position is capable of preventing the wafer frame from moving vertically.

A method includes: forming a transistor gate over a first substrate and at least one first dummy structure within the first substrate; forming an interlayer dielectric (ILD) layer over the gate transistor, the ILD layer including at least one contact structure formed therein and making electrical contact with the transistor gate and at least one first conductive structure formed therethrough at least partially over a surface of the dummy structure; forming a passivation layer over the ILD layer, the passivation layer comprising at least one first pad structure formed therein and making electrical contact with the conductive structure; bonding the first substrate with a second substrate; removing at least a portion of the first dummy structure, thereby forming a first opening; and forming a conductive material within the first opening for formation of a second conductive structure, the second conductive structure being electrically coupled to the first conductive structure.
摘要:
The formation of bonding pad protective layer over exposed bonding pad materials between stacked integrated circuit (IC) dies or wafers is described in preferred embodiments in which the bonding pad protective layer is formed in the integrated process of forming wafer bonding pads. The bonding pad protective layer prevents the exposed bonding pad materials from oxidation and corrosion in open-air or other harsh environments. By providing a bonding pad protective layer on exposed bonding pad materials, significant product reliability improvement is expected on ICs having a three-dimensional “stacked-die” configuration.

An apparatus including a bond head, a supplemental support, a reduction module, and a transducer is provided. The bond head holds a first substrate that contains a first set of metal pads. The supplemental support holds a second substrate that contains a second set of metal pads. The aligner forms an aligned set of metal pads by aligning the first substrate to the second substrate. The reduction module contains the aligned substrates and a reduction gas flows into the reduction module. The transducer provides repeated relative motion to the aligned set of metal pads.
