초록
최근 반도체 칩의 소형화 및 고집적화에 따라 미세 피치에 의한 범프 브리지 (bump bridge) 현상이 문제점으로 주목받고 있다. 이에 따라 범프 브리지 현상을 최소화할 수 있는 Cu pillar bump가 미세 피치에 대응하기 위해 반도체 패키지 산업에서 널리 적용되고 있다. 고온의 환경에 노출될 경우, 접합부 계면에 형성되는 금속간화합물(Intermetallic compound, IMC)의 두께가 증가함과 동시에 일부 IMC/Cu 및 IMC 계면 내부에 Kirkendall void가 형성되어 성장하게 된다. IMC의 과도한 성장과 Kirkendall void의 형성 및 성장은 접합부에 대한 기계적 신뢰성을 약화시키기때문에 이를 제어하는 것이 중요하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 CS(Cu+ Sn-1.8Ag Solder) 구조 Cu pillar bump의 등온 시효 처리에 따른 접합부 특성 평가가 수행되었으며 그 결과가 보고되었다.
Abstract
Recently, with the miniaturization and high integration of semiconductor chips, the bump bridge phenomenon caused by fine pitches is drawing attention as a problem. Accordingly, Cu pillar bump, which can minimize the bump bridge phenomenon, is widely applied in the semiconductor package industry for fine pitch applications. When exposed to a high-temperature environment, the thickness of the intermetallic compound (IMC) formed at the joint interface increases, and at the same time, Kirkendall void is formed and grown inside some IMC/Cu and IMC interfaces. Therefore, it is important to control the excessive growth of IMC and the formation and growth of Kirkendall voids because they weaken the mechanical reliability of the joints. Therefore, in this study, isothermal aging evaluation of Cu pillar bump joints with a CS (Cu+ Sn-1.8Ag Solder) structure was performed and the corresponding results was reported.
