Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing vertical electrical connections (micro-vias) in semiconductor wafers for the fabrication of semiconductor components. The method is characterized by the following steps: - application of a protective resist to the wafer front side - patterning of the protective resist on the wafer front side such that the contacts to be connected to the wafer rear side become free - laser drilling of passage holes at the contact connection locations from the wafer rear side through the semiconductor substrate, the active layers and the contacts to be connected on the wafer front side - cleaning of the wafer (debris removal) - application of a plating base to the wafer rear side and into the laser-drilled passage holes - application of gold by electrodeposition onto the metallized wafer rear side and the passage holes - resist stripping of the protective resist - application of an antiwetting layer in the region of the entrance openings of the passage holes at the wafer rear side.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing vertical through-contacts (micro-vias) in semi-conductor wafers in order to produce semi-conductor components, i.e. contacts on the front side of the wafer through the semi-conductor wafer to the rear side of the wafer. The invention also relates to a method which comprises the following steps: blind holes on the contact connection points are laser drilled from the rear side of the wafer into the semi-conductor substrate, the wafer is cleaned, the semi-conductor substrate is plasma etched in a material selected manner until the active layer stack of the wafer is reached, the active layer stack of the wafer is plasma etched in a material selective manner until the contacts, which are to be connected to the rear side of the wafer, are reached, a plating base is applied to the rear side of the wafer and into the blind holes and gold is applied by electrodeposition onto the metallizied rear side of the wafer and the blind holes.
Abstract:
The method involves applying a protective resist on a silicon carbide wafer (1) front side and laser boring of passage holes through the wafer and active layers at contact connection locations of the wafer-rear side. The wafer is cleaned, and a plating base is applied on the wafer-rear side and into the laser-drilled holes. Gold is galvanically applied on the wafer-rear side and the holes. An antiwetting layer (8) is applied in an area of entrance openings of the holes at the wafer-rear side, where the layer comprises titanium.
