摘要: The present invention is related to a method for singulating chips from a stack of layers, such as the layers on a wafer or substrate. The stack of layers includes a front end of line (FEOL) layer upon the substrate layer, with the substrate layer having a first surface and a second surface. The FEOL is positioned on top of the first surface, and a back end of line (BEOL) layer is positioned on top of the FEOL. The method includes etching singulating trenches through the BEOL, through the FEOL and at least partially through the substrate layer, depositing a passivation layer on the stack provided with singulating trenches, whereby the sidewalls of the etched singulating trenches are at least partially passivated. Dicing, such as blade dicing, laser dicing or trench etch dicing is performed, releasing the chip from the stack of layers.

摘要: A method of fabricating through substrate vias is disclosed. In one aspect, vias are etched from the backside of the substrate down to shallow trench isolation (STI) or the pre-metal dielectric stack (PMD). Extra contacts between metal 1 contact pads and the through-wafer vias are fabricated for realizing the contact between the through wafer vias and the back-end-of-line of the semiconductor chips.

摘要: A multi-tiered IC device contains a first die including a substrate with a first and second set of vias. The first set of vias extends from one side of the substrate, and the second set of vias extend from an opposite side of the substrate. Both sets of vias are coupled together. The first set of vias are physically smaller than the second set of vias. The first set of vias are produced prior to circuitry on the die, and the second set of vias are produced after circuitry on the die. A second die having a set of interconnects is stacked relative to the first die in which the interconnects couple to the first set of vias.

摘要: The invention relates to a method of optimizing an alignment strategy for processing batches of substrates in a lithographic projection apparatus. First, all substrates in a plurality of batches of substrates in the lithographic projection apparatus are sequentially aligned and exposed using a predefined alignment strategy. Then, alignment data is determined for each substrate in the plurality of batches of substrates. Next, at least one substrate in each batch of substrates is selected to render a set of selected substrates comprising at least one substrate in each batch. In a metrology tool, overlay data for each of the selected substrates is determined. Then, overlay indicator values for a predefined overlay indicator are calculated for the predefined alignment strategy and for other possible alignment strategies. In this calculation, the alignment data and the overlay data of the selected substrates is used. Finally, an optimal alignment strategy is determined, the strategy being defined as alignment strategy among the predefined alignment strategy and the other possible alignment strategies with a lowest overlay indicator value.
