Abstract:
Through-Silicon-Via (TSV) structures can include a conductive via through a substrate extending from an upper surface of the substrate to a backside surface of the substrate opposite the upper surface, a conductive protective layer including Ni and/or Co can be at a bottom of the conductive via, and a separate polymer insulating layer can be on the backside surface of the substrate in contact with the conductive protective layer.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device and a method for fabricating the same, wherein a portion of a substrate comprising a pad is removed to form a via hole. An insulating layer is formed on the substrate. A portion of the insulating layer is removed to form a plurality of openings exposing portions of the pad. A through electrode is formed to fill the via hole and to be electrically connected to the pad through one of the plurality of openings. A portion of the pad is exposed by another opening among the plurality of openings.
Abstract:
Through-Silicon-Via (TSV) structures can be provided by forming a conductive via through a substrate extending from an upper surface of the substrate to a backside surface of the substrate, that is opposite the upper surface, and having a conductive protective layer comprising Ni and/or Co formed at a bottom of the conductive via. A polymer insulating layer can be formed on the backside surface that is separate from the substrate and in contact with the conductive protective layer.
Abstract:
An apparatus for electroplating a substrate includes a substrate supporting member that supports the substrate such that a plating surface of the substrate faces upwardly, an anode electrode disposed at an upper part of the substrate supporting member, a power source for applying a voltage to the anode electrode and the substrate, and a plating solution supply member for supplying a plating solution onto the substrate.
Abstract:
Provided are a semiconductor device and a method for fabricating the same according to an embodiment. In the method, a portion of a substrate comprising a pad is removed to form a via hole. An insulating layer is formed on the substrate. A portion of the insulating layer is removed to form an opening part comprising a plurality of openings exposing portions of the pad. A through electrode is formed to fill the via hole and to be electrically connected to the pad through one of the plurality of openings. A portion of the pad is exposed by another opening among the plurality of openings.
