本公开实施例涉及的半导体功能结构是将被用于后续制程以形成最终的半导体器件的一部分,是实现半导体器件的主要功能的核心部分。这里,所述最终的半导体器件可以包括但不限于存储器。
在半导体器件如,动态随机存取存储器(DRAM,Dynamic Random Access Memory)的封装结构的设计中,衬垫(还可以被称为焊盘,英文表达为PAD)有两种设置方式:一种是顶层金属开窗的方式;另一种是重布线层(RDL,Redistribution Layer)开窗的方式。
所述顶层金属开窗是指在半导体功能结构的顶层金属层上形成钝化层(Passivation)或绝缘层,以保护半导体功能结构不被破坏;然后,在所述钝化层或绝缘层上形成开窗区域,以暴露部分顶层金属层,形成衬垫。其中,可以在该衬垫上进行探针卡扎针测试,以实现对半导体功能结构的电学性能的测试;也可以在该衬垫上进行键合线(Bonding wire)的引出,以实现对半导体功能结构的电引出。
所述重布线层开窗是指在半导体功能结构的顶层金属层上形成重布线层,在重布线层上形成钝化层或绝缘层,然后,在所述钝化层或绝缘层上形成开窗区域,以暴露出部分重布线层,形成并列设置的两个衬垫。其中,该两个衬垫中的一个用于进行探针卡扎针测试,另一个用于在该衬垫上进行键合线的引出。这里,重布线层在半导体器件中可以起到调整衬垫位置的作用,还能起到增强电源地的供电网络的作用。
可以理解的是,顶层金属层比较薄,且下面有垫片结构,能够支持在同一片开窗的金属区域上,先经过探针卡扎针测试,再到封装厂进行键合线封装,而不影响封装打线的成品率;重布线层的材料一般是金属,重布线层相较于顶层金属层比较厚,经过探针卡扎针会有比较深且表面粗糙的针痕,这个针痕会影响封装打线的成品率,因此重布线层中用于测试和用于引出键合线的衬垫需要分开。封装结构中无论采用上述哪种开窗方式对半导体器件的功能并没有太大的影响,重布线层开窗有利于性能的提升,但需要增加生产周期和生产成本。
相关技术中,一般会根据半导体器件的实际需求选择以上两种开窗方式中的一种来设计封装结构。然而,实际应用中,在半导体器件的生产过程中,需求并不是单一的,经常存在多需求的情况。以下给出几种多需求的示例:
示例性的,在半导体器件(或称为“产品”)量产化之前,有较长的功能调试过程,在该调试过程中,测试是在半导体功能结构运行速度较低的情况下完成的,此时,仅需要采用顶层金属开窗方式,即可以完成对半导体功能结构的封装、测试。而在产品的制程工艺成熟后,需要测试半导体功能结构在高速运行下的状态时,则需要采用重布线层开窗方式进行封装测试。
基于此,本公开实施例提供了一种封装结构,参考图1,所述封装结构中包括顶层金属开窗方式和重布线层开窗方式;其中,顶层金属开窗方式中,在顶层金属层101中设置有第一类衬垫102;该第一类衬垫102可以用于执行低速测试和引出键合线;重布线层开窗方式中,在重布线层103中设置有两类衬垫(第二类衬垫104和第三类衬垫105),第二类衬垫104用于执行高速测试,第三类衬垫105用于引出键合线。
这里,一方面,在利用第一类衬垫102执行低速测试时,测试探针卡需要同时打在所有第一类衬垫102的中心点上,在利用第二类衬垫104执行高速测试时,测试探针卡需要同时打在所有第二类衬垫104的中心点上。然而,从图1可以看出第一类衬垫102和第二衬垫104处于封装结构不同的层,不同层中的各第一类衬垫102和各第二衬垫104的相对位置不同。这样,为了满足低速测试和高速测试的需求,不得不制作两套测试探针卡,而制作两套测试探针卡将大大的增加测试成本和测试时间。
另一方面,在测试的点比较多时,靠近半导体功能结构的一个边缘的位置处可能摆放不下所有的第一类衬垫102,此时需要将第一类衬垫分别设置在半导体功能结构的相对设置的两个边缘的位置处,相应地,重布线层103也需要分别设置在半导体功能结构的相对的两个边缘的位置处,但由于第二类衬垫104和第三类衬垫105一起占用的面积比第一类衬垫102占用的面积大。此时,至少一个边缘的位置处的重布线层103容易超出边缘。
基于此,为了进一步解决上述问题,本公开实施例中又提供了一种封 装结构及其制作方法以及半导体器件,其中,所述封装结构,包括:具有多个过孔的隔离层,所述隔离层覆盖互连层表面,所述过孔暴露部分所述互连层,所述互连层设置在半导体功能结构的表面;N个第一衬垫,每一第一衬垫由一个所述过孔暴露的所述互连层构成;所述N为大于1的正整数;N个重布线层,每一重布线层覆盖所述隔离层并与所述N个第一衬垫中一相应所述第一衬垫电连接;部分所述第一衬垫沿第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第一边缘的位置处,另一部分所述第一衬垫沿第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第二边缘的位置处,所述第一边缘与所述第二边缘为所述半导体功能结构相对的两个边缘;第一绝缘层,覆盖且暴露出每一所述重布线层的部分区域;每一所述重布线层被暴露出的部分区域均包括第二衬垫和第三衬垫;其中,每一所述第二衬垫的中心点相对于对应的所述第一衬垫的中心点的偏移方向和偏移距离均相等;部分所述重布线层中所述第二衬垫和所述第三衬垫之间的相对位置与另一部分所述重布线层中的所述第二衬垫和所述第三衬垫之间的相对位置不同;所述第一衬垫和第二衬垫分别用于所述半导体功能结构处于不同运行速度时的测试,所述第三衬垫用于执行与所述第二衬垫测试的内容对应的功能交互。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例中涉及的第一方向与半导体功能结构的表面平行,本公开实施例中涉及的第二方向平行于所述半导体功能结构,且垂直于所述第一方向,本公开实施例中涉及的第三方向与第一方向和第二方向均垂直。在一些实施例中,第一方向可以与X轴方向平行,第二方向可以与Y轴方向平行,第三方向与Z轴方向平行。
这里,参考图2a,所述封装结构包括:基底(图2a中未示出),所述基底的组成材料可以包括硅(Si)、锗(Ge)、锗化硅(SiGe)、绝缘体上硅(Silicon on Insulator,SOI)或者绝缘体上锗(Germanium on Insulator,GOI)。
半导体功能结构200,所述半导体功能结构200位于基底上;具体地,所述半导体功能结构200包括半导体功能层201和位于所述半导体功能层201表面上的互连层202,根据实际需求,在所述半导体功能层201中可以设置多种功能结构;相应地,所述互连层202用于将半导体功能层201中功能结构的电信号引出,以运行所述功能结构。在一些实施例中,互连层202包括顶层金属层,顶层金属层不仅用于将功能结构的电信号引出,还用于支撑半导体功能结构200。
需要说明的是,后续制程中形成的重布线层连接的任何信号都均连接于所述互连层202,即保证在没有重布线层的情况下,半导体功能结构200的功能是完整的。图2a中展示的互连层202是被去除部分后的某一截面的剖面效果图,实际应用中,互连层中的各部分并不是截断的,而是互连的,即在其他截面上,互连层中的各部分可能是连续的。
隔离层203,覆盖互连层202表面,用于在部分区域隔离互连层202和 后续形成的重布线层206。隔离层203中设置有过孔204,过孔204暴露部分互连层202。其中,过孔204的形状可以是圆柱形,也可以是倒梯形,或者是任何合适的形状;隔离层203的组成材料包括但不限于正硅酸乙酯(TEOS)。
由一个所述过孔204暴露的所述互连层202构成的第一衬垫205;隔离层203内可包含多个过孔204,从而形成多个被过孔204暴露的所述第一衬垫205的数量包括多个。这里,所述第一衬垫205一方面可以用于进行第一类测试;另一方面还可以用于执行与所述第一类测试的内容对应的功能交互。
示例性的,所述第一类测试可以理解为对半导体功能结构执行较低运行速度时的一些测试。需要说明的是,在存储器中,所述运行速度指的是存储器的读写速度。所述执行与所述第一类测试的内容对应的功能交互可以理解为在第一衬垫上引出键合线。也就是说,在执行第一类测试时,第一衬垫205可以用于与探针卡接触,且探针卡中的多个探针与N个第一衬垫一一对应,以实现互连层与其他测试系统的电连接。
实际应用中,在测试的点比较多时,靠近半导体功能结构的一个边缘的位置处可能摆放不下所有的第一衬垫205,此时可以将第一衬垫205分别设置在半导体功能结构的相对设置的两个边缘的位置处,参考图2b,N个第一衬垫205中,N个所述第一衬垫分为两个部分,即第一部分第一衬垫2051和第二部分第一衬垫2052;其中,第一部分第一衬垫2051包括M1个第一衬垫,M1个第一衬垫沿第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第一边缘20a的位置处;第二部分第一衬垫2052包括M2个第一衬垫,M2个第一衬垫沿所述第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第二边缘20b的位置处,所述第一边缘20a与所述第二边缘20b为所述半导体功能结构相对的两个边缘。这里,M1+M2=N。
需要说明的是,图2a为第一衬垫205与重布线层206直接接触的封装结构的局部剖面示意图;图2b为一种封装结构的俯视图的示例,其中,在图2b中为了更清楚的展示第一衬垫的位置排布,隐去了其它层;图2c为第一衬垫205通过导电柱207与重布线层206间接接触的封装结构的局部剖面示意图。
在一些实施例中,第一部分第一衬垫2051的数量和第二部分第一衬垫2052的数量可以相同,也可以不同。
具体地,图2b中六个第一衬垫分为第一部分第一衬垫2051和第二部分第一衬垫2052,第一部分第一衬垫2051包括三个第一衬垫,沿第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第一边缘20a的位置处;第二部分第一衬垫2052包括三个第一衬垫,沿所述第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第二边缘20b的位置处。
参考图2a,位于所述隔离层203表面上和所述过孔204上的N个重布 线层206。这里,每一重布线层206覆盖所述隔离层203;并且,N个重布线层206与所述N个第一衬垫205中相应所述第一衬垫205直接接触。
重布线层206和第一衬垫205之间既可以直接接触(参考图2a);也可以间接接触,即在重布线层206与第一衬垫205之间设置导电材料层(参考图2b、图2c,例如,导电柱207)。所述导电柱207的组成材料可以与重布线层206的组成材料相同,也可以不同。需要说明的是,所述导电柱207的高度可以小于或等于所述过孔204的深度,图2c中示出的导电柱207的高度等于所述过孔204的深度的情况。
在一些实施例中,所述封装结构包括所述导电柱207,所述导电柱的数量包括多个,多个导电柱沿第一方向并列设置。
上述实施例中,同一个过孔204内的所述导电柱207的数量可以包括一个,也可以包括多个,相邻导电柱207之间被绝缘材料隔离;相应地,每一所述导电柱207对应一第一衬垫205,也就是说,当导电柱207的数量为多个时,同一过孔204的底部具有多个第一衬垫205。
可以理解的是,导电柱207的数量包括多个时,多个导电柱207均与所述重布线层206以及互连层202连接,这样,可以增加重布线层206与互连层202电连接的可靠性。
可以理解的是,通过在过孔的底面积不变的情况下,设置多个第一衬垫205,有利于减小同一过孔204底部所有第一衬垫205的总面积,进而减小第一衬垫205与周边导电材料之间的寄生电容,有利于进一步优化信号传输性能。
参考图2a,位于所述重布线层206上的第一绝缘层208。
所述第一绝缘层208覆盖重布线层206的表面,被暴露的部分所述互连层202上的重布线层206的厚度与隔离层203表面上的重布线层206的厚度可以相同。在一些实施例中,过孔204的径宽大于两倍重布线层206的厚度时,重布线层206覆盖过孔204的侧壁和底部,重布线层206围成有凹槽209。
在一些实施例中,参考图2a,所述重布线层206与对应的所述第一衬垫205直接接触,所述封装结构还包括:第二绝缘层210,位于每一所述重布线层围成的凹槽209内,所述第二绝缘层210的材料的硬度小于所述重布线层206的材料的硬度,如此,一方面可以减小封装结构的应力,增加封装结构的可靠性;另一方面相较于采用重布线层206填充凹槽209,利用第二绝缘层210材料填充凹槽209可以避免产生更多的寄生电容。
在一些实施例中,第二绝缘层210与第一绝缘层208可以为一体结构,也可以为分体结构,当两者为分体结构时,两者的材料可以不同。图2a中示出的是第二绝缘层210与第一绝缘层208为一体结构的情况。所述第二绝缘层210的组成材料包括但不限于聚酰亚胺(PI)。
参考图2a,N个重布线层206中至少部分所述重布线层206被暴露出 的部分区域包括第二衬垫211和第三衬垫212。
这里,N个重布线层206中的每一个重布线层206中均设置一个第二衬垫211和一个第三衬垫212;换言之,N个第二衬垫211和N个第三衬垫212一一对应。第二衬垫211用于进行第二类测试,所述第三衬垫212用于执行与所述第二类测试的内容对应的功能交互。所述第二类测试可以理解为对半导体功能结构在较高运行速度时执行的一些测试。所述执行与第二类测试的内容对应的功能交互可以理解为在第三衬垫上引出键合线并进行信号交互。
需要说明的是,第二衬垫211与第三衬垫212之间可以是连续设置的,即第二衬垫211与第三衬垫212之间并未设置隔墙;也可以是间隔设置的,即第二衬垫211与第三衬垫212之间设置有隔墙。
这里,在第二衬垫211与第三衬垫212之间为连续设置时,可以在执行测试的过程中,避免探针出现未瞄准的情况下,隔墙对探针卡造成的损伤,从而延长了探针卡的使用寿命;同时,减少杂质的产生,从而提高了测试效率;另外,减少探针卡对隔墙的破坏,进而从整体上提高了封装结构的可靠性。
而在第二衬垫211与第三衬垫212之间设置有隔墙时,可以在执行测试的过程中,提高机台对每个衬垫的识别精度。
以下实施例中,以第二衬垫211与第三衬垫212之间设置有隔墙为例进行说明,但可以理解的是,以下关于隔墙的描述仅用于说明本公开,并不用来限制本公开的范围。
为了便于探针卡在执行第二类测试时,探针卡中的每一探针均能与第二衬垫相对应,本公开实施例中,将每一所述第二衬垫211的中心点相对于对应的所述第一衬垫205的中心点,偏移相同的方向和偏移相等距离,这样,可以使得N个第一衬垫和N个第二衬垫保持完全相同的相对位置,如此,可以使得同一套探针卡在执行第一类测试后,从第一衬垫205的中心点向一定的方向移动一定的距离后能够与全部的第二衬垫211的中心点均对准,即探针卡可以直接对全部需要测试的第二衬垫执行第二类测试,而无需更换新的探针卡。
同时,通过将位于不同边缘位置处的第二衬垫211和第三衬垫212之间的位置设置为不同,可实现均可以靠近边缘但不超出边缘。以下,通过一个示例具体说明第一衬垫和第二衬垫的位置设置方式。
在一些实施例中,所述N个重布线层中每一所述重布线层包括的所述第二衬垫与所述第三衬垫均沿第二方向并列设置,所述第二方向与所述第一方向垂直。
这里,第一衬垫205分布在半导体功能结构的相对设置的两个边缘的位置处,示例性的,参考图3,图3中箭头的左边示出了第一衬垫205的排布示例,该示例与图2b相同,这里不再赘述。
同样,N个所述第二衬垫分为两个部分,即第三部分和第四部分;其中,第三部分包括M1个第二衬垫;第四部分包括M2个第二衬垫;该第三部分中的M1个第二衬垫沿第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第一边缘的位置处;该第四部分中的M2个第二衬垫沿所述第二方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第二边缘的位置处。同样,N个所述第三衬垫分为两个部分,即第五部分和第六部分;其中,第五部分包括M1个第三衬垫;第六部分包括M2个第三衬垫;该第五部分中的M1个第三衬垫与M1个第二衬垫沿第二方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第一边缘的位置;该第六部分中的M2个第三衬垫和M2个第二衬垫沿第二方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第二边缘的位置处。
示例性的,图3中箭头的右边示出了重布线层206的排布示例,具体地:六个重布线层206分为两个部分,每个部分中包括三个重布线层,每一部分中的三个重布线层206均沿X轴方向并列排布,每一个重布线层206中包括一个第二衬垫211与对应的第三衬垫212,该第二衬垫211和第三衬垫212均沿Y轴方向并列设置;图3中的虚线示出了第一衬垫205的中心点所在的直线。
在一些实施例中,所述第一衬垫205、所述第二衬垫211、第三衬垫212均为长条状,每一所述重布线层206在所述互连层所在平面的正投影的形状包括长条状。每一第一衬垫205沿第一方向上的宽度与每一第二衬垫211、第三衬垫212沿第一方向上的宽度可以相同,每一所述第一衬垫205沿第二方向上的长度与每一所述第二衬垫211、第三衬垫212沿第二方向上的长度可以不同。
在一些实施例中,每一所述第二衬垫的中心点在所述互连层所在平面的正投影相对于对应的所述第一衬垫的中心点向所述第二方向偏移第一距离。
示例性的,参考图3,第一边缘20a处的每一所述第二衬垫的中心点O
2相对于对应的所述第一衬垫的中心点O
1的沿Y轴方向偏移第一距离H1;同时,第二边缘20b处的每一所述第二衬垫的中心点O
2相对于对应的所述第一衬垫的中心点O
1的沿Y轴方向偏移第一距离H1。
在一些实施例中,部分所述第一衬垫靠近所述第一边缘的第一端与部分所述重布线层靠近所述第一边缘的第二端沿第三方向基本齐平,第三方向与所述第一方向和所述第二方向均垂直;
另一部分所述第一衬垫靠近所述第二边缘的第三端与另一部分所述重布线层靠近所述第二边缘的第四端沿所述第三方向基本齐平。
在一些实施例中,部分所述重布线层中的所述第二衬垫位于靠近所述第二端的位置处,所述第三衬垫位于远离所述第二端的位置处;
另一部分所述重布线层中的所述第二衬垫位于靠近所述第四端的位置处,所述第三衬垫位于远离所述第四端的位置处。
在另一些实施例中,部分所述重布线层中的所述第三衬垫位于靠近所述第二端的位置处,所述第二衬垫位于远离所述第二端的位置处;另一部分所述重布线层中的所述第三衬垫位于靠近所述第四端的位置处,所述第二衬垫位于远离所述第四端的位置处。
也就是说,满足每一所述第二衬垫的中心点相对于对应的所述第一衬垫的中心点的偏移方向和偏移距离均相等的前提下,第二衬垫也可以设置在离第一衬垫较远的距离处。
可以理解的是,部分所述重布线层中的第二衬垫位于靠近所述第二端的位置处且另一部分所述重布线层中的第二衬垫位于靠近所述第四端的位置处,相较于部分所述重布线层中的第二衬垫位于远离所述第二端的位置处且另一部分所述重布线层中的第二衬垫位于靠近所述第四端的位置处,在进行第二测试时,探针移动的距离更短,更能提高测试效率和降低错误发生的概率。在一些实施例中,每一所述重布线层还包括用于与所述第一衬垫进行导电连接的第一区域;
部分所述重布线层中的所述第二衬垫和所述第三衬垫均位于所述第一区域的一侧;另一部分所述重布线层中的所述第二衬垫和所述第三衬垫均位于所述第一区域的两侧。
应当理解的是,在所述封装结构中设置导电柱207时,参考图3、图4,第一区域213与所述导电柱207接触,且位于所述导电柱的周围,用于实现第一衬垫和重布线层电性连接。在所述封装结构中未设置导电柱207时,第一区域213位于过孔204内。所述第一区域213的材料可以与重布线层206的材料相同,也可不同,还可以是任何合适的导电材料。
本公开实施例中,第二衬垫和第三衬垫的相对位置关系不同,如图4中示出的一部分封装结构中第二衬垫位于导电柱与第三衬垫之间,另一部分封装结构中导电柱207位于第二衬垫211和第三衬垫212之间,基于此,第一区域213的位置可以设置在对应的第二衬垫211和第三衬垫212之间,也可以设置在对应的第二衬垫211和第三衬垫212的一侧。
另外,应当理解的是,在导电柱207和/或第一区域213设置在对应的第二衬垫211和第三衬垫212之间时,该对应的第二衬垫211和第三衬垫212之间可以设置隔墙。
需要说明的是,为了更清楚的展示第一衬垫、第二衬垫和第三衬垫之间的相对位置关系,图4中仅表示出了靠近第一边缘20a位置处的一个一个重布线层,以及靠近第二边缘20b位置处的一个重布线层;并且,图3、图4中仅示意性的示出了靠近第一边缘20a位置处的重布线层,与对应的靠近第二边缘20b位置处的重布线层之间的距离不代表实际应用中二者的距离,其实际距离可以根据实际需求进行设置。
本公开各实施例中,通过将位于不同边缘位置处的第二衬垫和第三衬垫之间的位置设置为不同,实现可以利用同一套探针卡来实现上述两种不 同运行速度的测试,相较于使用两套探针卡分别进行测试,节省了测试成本和测试时间,降低了生产周期和制造成本。
根据本公开实施例的另一方面,提供了一种半导体器件,包括:半导体功能结构及如本公开上述实施例中所述的封装结构。
在一些实施例中,所述半导体器件还包括:基板;多个堆叠设置的裸片;每一所述裸片包括半导体功能结构及位于所述半导体功能结构上的封装结构;每一裸片通过所述封装结构中的第三衬垫上的引线电连接到所述基板上。
根据本公开实施例的又一方面,提供了一种封装结构的制作方法,如图5所示,本公开实施例提供的封装结构的制造方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S501:提供半导体功能结构,所述半导体功能结构的表面设置有互连层;
步骤S502:形成具有多个过孔的隔离层,所述隔离层覆盖互连层表面,所述过孔暴露部分所述互连层,每一所述过孔暴露的部分所述互连层作为一个第一衬垫,形成N个第一衬垫;所述第一衬垫用于进行第一类测试;所述N为大于1的正整数;
步骤S503:在完成所述第一类测试后,在所述N个第一衬垫及所述隔离层上形成N个重布线层,每一重布线层覆盖所述隔离层并与所述N个第一衬垫中一相应所述第一衬垫电连接;部分所述第一衬垫沿第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第一边缘的位置处,另一部分所述第一衬垫沿第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第二边缘的位置处,所述第一边缘与所述第二边缘为所述半导体功能结构相对的两个边缘;
步骤S504:形成覆盖且暴露出部分所述重布线层的第一绝缘层,被暴露的部分所述重布线层作为第二衬垫和第三衬垫;其中,每一所述第二衬垫的中心点相对于对应的所述第一衬垫的中心点的偏移方向和偏移距离均相等;部分重布线层中的第二衬垫和所述第三衬垫之间的相对位置与另一部分所述重布线层中的所述第二衬垫和所述第三衬垫之间的相对位置不同;所述第二衬垫用于进行第二类测试,所述第三衬垫用于执行与所述第二类测试的内容对应的功能交互;所述半导体功能结构在进行所述第一类测试时的运行速度低于在进行所述第二类测试时的运行速度。
应当理解,图5中所示的步骤并非排他的,也可以在所示操作中的任何步骤之前、之后或之间执行其他步骤;图5中所示的各步骤可以根据实际需求进行顺序调整。图6a至图6d为本公开实施例提供的一种封装结构的制作过程的剖面示意图。下面结合图5、图6a至图6d,对本公开实施例提供的封装结构的制作方法进行详细地说明。
在步骤S501中,参考图6a,提供半导体功能结构600,所述半导体功能结构600包括半导体功能层601和互连层602。所述提供半导体功能结构600包括:提供基底(图6a中未示出),在所述基底上形成半导体功能层 601,在所述半导体功能层上形成互连层602。
具体地,所述半导体功能层601包括单层或多层薄膜,半导体功能层具有导电层和/或介电层,根据实际需求,所述半导体功能层601中可以设置多种功能结构;相应地,所述互连层602用于将半导体功能层601中功能结构的电信号引出,以运行所述功能结构。在一些实施例中,互连层602包括顶层金属层,顶层金属层不仅用于将功能结构的电信号引出,还用于支撑半导体功能结构600。
在一些实施例中,所述方法还包括:去除部分互连层602,减小互连层的面积,以减小由所述互连层产生的寄生电容。图6a中展示的是互连层602被去除部分后的某一截面的剖面效果图,实际应用中,互连层中的各部分并不是截断的,而是互连的,即在其他截面上,互连层中的各部分可能是连续的。
在步骤S502中,参考图6b,在所述互连层602上形成隔离层603。所述隔离层的组成材料包括但不限于正硅酸乙酯。
接下来,去除部分所述隔离层,以形成多个过孔604。所述过孔暴露部分所述互连层,每一所述过孔暴露的部分所述互连层作为一个第一衬垫605,形成N个第一衬垫605。其中,所述过孔604可以是圆柱形,也可以是倒梯形,或者是任何合适的形状,所述过孔的横截面积包括所述过孔在所互连层所在平面的正投影的面积,例如,过孔是个倒梯形时,则所述第一衬垫的横截面积为所述过孔的最小横截面积。
所述第一衬垫605可以用于执行第一类测试;还可以用于执行与所述第一类测试的内容对应的功能交互,例如引出键合线并进行信号交互。所述第一类测试可以理解为对半导体功能结构执行较低运行速度时的一些测试。需要说明的是,在存储器中,所述运行速度指的是存储器的读写速度。
在步骤S503中,参考图6c,在所述隔离层603和所述过孔604中形成重布线层606。
其中,在所述隔离层603上形成重布线层606的具体方式包括:以曝光显影的方式在所述隔离层上形成新的导线图案,然后,利用电镀技术按照所述新的导线图案形成重布线层,所述重布线层包括新的导线路径,该新的导线路径与所述互连层导电连接。
这里,每一重布线层606覆盖所述隔离层603并与所述N个第一衬垫中一相应所述第一衬垫605电连接;需要说明的是,第一衬垫605包括第一部分第一衬垫和第二部分第一衬垫,第一部分所述第一衬垫沿第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第一边缘的位置处,第二部分所述第一衬垫沿第一方向并列设置在靠近所述半导体功能结构第二边缘的位置处,所述第一边缘与所述第二边缘为所述半导体功能结构相对的两个边缘。
在步骤S504中,参考图6d,在所述重布线层606上形成第一绝缘层608。
接下来,去除部分所述第一绝缘层608,暴露出部分重布线层606,这里,被暴露出的部分所述重布线层包括第二衬垫611和第三衬垫612,其中,所述第二衬垫611用于进行第二类测试,所述第三衬垫612用于执行与所述第二类测试的内容对应的功能交互,所述第二类测试可以理解为对半导体功能结构在较高运行速度时执行的一些测试。这里,第二衬垫611和第三衬垫612的位置可以根据实际需求进行选择设置。
需要说明的是,在本实施例中,参考图6d,第一绝缘层除了暴露部分所述重布线层以构成第二衬垫和第三衬垫以外,还暴露位于第一衬垫上方的重布线层,以在重布线层构成的凹槽609内填充后续的第二绝缘层610,此时,第二绝缘层的密度可以小于等于第一绝缘层;在其他实施例中,第一绝缘层还覆盖重布线层构成的凹槽609的底面和侧壁,后续第二绝缘层610形成于第一绝缘层构成的凹槽609内。
在另一些实施例中,所述封装结构还包括导电柱,对应的,所述方法还包括:在完成所述第一类测试后,在所述第一衬垫上形成导电柱;所述在所述第一衬垫及所述隔离层上形成重布线层,包括:在所述导电柱及所述隔离层上形成重布线层,所述重布线层通过所述导电柱与所述互连层导电连接。
本公开实施例中,第二衬垫和第三衬垫的相对位置关系可以根据实际需求进行设置,例如,封装结构中第二衬垫位于导电柱与第三衬垫之间,和/或,封装结构中导电柱位于第二衬垫611和第三衬垫612之间,基于此,部分重布线层606中的第二衬垫611和所述第三衬垫612之间的相对位置与另一部分所述重布线层606中的所述第二衬垫611和所述第三衬垫612之间的相对位置可以相同也可以不同,前已述及,这里不再赘述。
每一所述第二衬垫的中心点相对于对应的所述第一衬垫的中心点的偏移方向和偏移距离均相等,如此,可以使得同一套探针卡在执行第一类测试后,从第一衬垫的中心点向一定的方向移动一定的距离后能够与全部的第二衬垫的中心点均对准,即探针卡可以直接对全部的第二衬垫执行第二类测试,而无需更换新的探针卡。
另外,需要说明的是,本公开上述实施例中,采用兼容两种类型测试的封装结构,满足半导体功能结构在不同制程阶段能够进行不同类型的测试;然而,需要注意的是,在对封装结构进行布局设计时,需要在顶层金属层上预留重布线层的过孔位置,保证在需要增加重布线层的时候,不用改动顶层金属层或其他任何光刻板及工艺制程。
在本公开所提供的几个实施例中,应该理解到,所揭露的设备和方法,可以通过非目标的方式实现。以上所描述的设备实施例仅仅是示意性的,例如,所述单元的划分,仅仅为一种逻辑功能划分,实际实现时可以有另外的划分方式,如:多个单元或组件可以结合,或可以集成到另一个系统,或一些特征可以忽略,或不执行。另外,所显示或讨论的 各组成部分相互之间的耦合、或直接耦合。
