摘要:
A method of bonding semiconductor components is described. In one aspect a first component, for example a semiconductor die, is bonded to a second component, for example a semiconductor wafer or another die, by direct metal-metal bonds between metal bumps on one component and corresponding bumps or contact pads on the other component. In addition, a number of solder bumps are provided on one of the components, and corresponding contact areas on the other component, and fast solidified solder connections are established between the solder bumps and the corresponding contact areas, without realizing the metal-metal bonds. The latter metal-metal bonds are established in a heating step performed after the soldering step. This enables a fast bonding process applied to multiple dies bonded on different areas of the wafer and/or stacked one on top of the other, followed by a single heating step for realizing metal-metal bonds between the respective dies and the wafer or between multiple stacked dies. The method allows to improve the throughput of the bonding process, as the heating step takes place only once for a plurality of dies and/or wafers.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for electrically bonding a first semiconductor component to a second semiconductor component, both components including arrays of contact areas. In one aspect, prior to bonding, layers of an intermetallic compound are formed on the contact areas of the second component. The roughness of the intermetallic layers is such that the intermetallic layers include cavities suitable for insertion of a solder material in the cavities, under the application of a bonding pressure, when the solder is at a temperature below its melting temperature. The components are aligned and bonded, while the solder material is applied between the two. Bonding takes place at a temperature below the melting temperature of the solder. The bond can be established only by the insertion of the solder into the cavities of the intermetallic layers, and without the formation of a second intermetallic layer.
摘要:
The invention relates to a substrate having at least one main surface comprising at least one non-noble metallic bonding landing pad covered by a capping layer thereby shielding the non-noble metallic bonding landing pad from the environment. This capping layer comprises an alloy, the alloy being NiB or CoB and containing an atomic concentration percentage of boron in the range of 10% to 50%.
摘要:
A method for producing a stack of semiconductor devices and the stacked device obtained thereof are disclosed. In one aspect, the method includes providing a first semiconductor device comprising a dielectric layer with a hole, the hole lined with a metal layer and partially filled with solder material. The method also includes providing a second semiconductor device with a compliant layer having a metal protrusion through the compliant layer, the protrusion capped with a capping layer. The method further includes mounting the devices by landing the metal protrusion in the hole, where the compliant layer is spaced from the dielectric layer. The method includes thereafter reflowing the solder material, thereby bonding the devices such that the compliant layer is contacting the dielectric layer.
