Process DevelopmentPolymer Structure Fabrication
A spin speed of 2000 rpm for 45 seconds gives a
thickness of 4 µm to the LOR layer.
Key Dimensions
  • Opening in the photosensitive
  • resist over the contact
  • pads (7µm).

7 µm
  • Base opening of the LOR
  • layer around the contact
  • pads (8-9µm).

4 µm
  • Height of the LOR layer in the polymer structure
    (4µm).

8-9 µm
All points received a bake at 170 C for 5
minutes. 170 C was chosen based on etch rate of
the LOR (a separate experiment) and the bake time
of 5 minutes is based on the manufacturers
recommendation.

Process DevelopmentPolymer Structure Fabrication
Before fabricating the sacrificial polymer
structure on working die, the structure was first
built on bare silicon wafers to prove the
viability of the fabrication process.

Process DevelopmentMetal Deposition Process
  • Collimated jet of gas (Argon/Helium)
  • Bump metal is vaporized and enters gas jet
  • Evaporated metal atoms bond together into
    nanoclusters
  • Highly perpendicular trajectory at impact

Process DevelopmentEvaluate Alignment Process
  • Mirrors show alignment marks on both die and an
    operator can align them using the tools relative
    positioning

Alignment Mark
  • Verification of alignment after hybridization is
    accomplished with a real-time infrared optical
    system.

Initial ResultsPolymer Structure Fabrication
Polymer structure before metal deposition.
Photosensitive Resist Opening is 7.0 µm in
diameter, the LOR Base Opening is 8 µm, and the
LOR Height is 4.0 µm.

structure
Indium deposited on top of the sacrificial
polymer structure

Initial ResultsPolymer Structure Removal and
Reflow
AuSn before reflow
AuSn after reflow
Indium after deposition

Initial ResultsBond Integrity
Image with focus set at bump plane to highlight
the material left after pull test (demonstrating
that failure occurred inside the bumps rather
than at the interface between the bumps and the
bonding pads). 5 kg bond force was used to bond
and 2.2 kg pull (separation) force was required
to separate the die.
15
16
Initial ResultsBond Integrity Evaluation
  • Pull test gives strength of bond between die
  • Best failure mode is ductile
  • taffy pull

Examples of taffy pull failures

17
Future WorkPlanned
  • Increase strength of photosensitive resist
    overhangs to withstand JVD metal deposition
  • change thickness / material for photosensitive
    resist
  • Once bump size is correct, hybridize and test
    bond integrity
  • Electrical testing / characterization of the
    hybridized device

Future WorkAlternative Materials for Polymer
Structure
Sacrificial polymer structure (new photosensitive
resist on top of LOR) on a bare Silicon wafer.
All dimensions are small, but this can be
addressed in future process development.
