Abstract:
An integrated circuit (IC) device includes a semiconductor substrate having a via hole extending through at least a part thereof, a conductive structure in the via hole, a conductive barrier layer adjacent the conductive structure; and a via insulating layer interposed between the semiconductor substrate and the conductive barrier layer. The conductive barrier layer may include an outer portion oxidized between the conductive barrier layer and the via insulating layer, and the oxidized outer portion of the conductive barrier layer may substantially surrounds the remaining portion of the conductive barrier layer.
Abstract:
A semiconductor chip including through silicon vias (TSVs), wherein the TSVs may be prevented from bending and the method of fabricating the semiconductor chip may be simplified, and a method of fabricating the semiconductor chip. The semiconductor chip includes a silicon substrate having a first surface and a second surface; a plurality of TSVs which penetrate the silicon substrate and protrude above the second surface of the silicon substrate; a polymer pattern layer which is formed on the second surface of the silicon substrate, surrounds side surfaces of the protruding portion of each of the TSVs, and comprises a flat first portion and a second portion protruding above the first portion; and a plated pad which is formed on the polymer pattern layer and covers a portion of each of the TSVs exposed from the polymer pattern layer.
