Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A novel approach to suppress the conventional Cu-TSV induced thermo-mechanical stress in 3D-LSI chip is proposed, fabricated and tested. In this approach, a thermal-chemical-vapor-deposition grown organic polyimide is conformably deposited along the side wall of the TSV. Compared to ALD, the thickness controllability is not so high, but relatively high thickness control with a resolution of 10 nm in thickness is realized. The deposition rate is approximately 100-200nm/min. The step-coverage is approximately 80% for high-aspect-ratio TSV with the depth of 50 um and the diameter of 5 um, and the resulting polyimide thin layer is very pure and shows high thermal stability. As-grown polymer was evaluated for their role in minimizing the thermo-mechanical stress in vicinal and via-space Si. It was found that replacing the conventional SiO2 dielectric liner with organic polymer greatly helps in suppressing the thermo-mechanical stress.
