摘要:
A method to effectively deposit multi-component solders while remaining compatible with electroplating solder bumping process. A flip-chip solder bump is formed by using electroplated solder bump technology with the addition of wettable layer of metal or solder. The remainder of the required solder volume is deposited by Injection Molded Solder (IMS) technology. This method will accommodate certain metals, as well as trace amounts of alloying, that would be difficult or impossible to electroplate. The method also allows for electrical test between deposition of the wettable layer of solder and the bulk solder, providing the advantages of a more planar surface for probe contact, with very consistent height, less solder pick-up by the test probe and elimination of the post-probe solder reflow step.

A method of implementing an injection molded soldering process for three-dimensional structures, particularly, such as directed to three-dimensional semiconductor chip stacking. Also provide is an arrangement for implementing the injection molded soldering (IMS) process. Pursuant to an embodiment of the invention, the joining of the semiconductor chip layers with a substrate is implemented, rather than by means of currently known wire bond stacking, through the intermediary of columns of solder material formed by the IMS process, thereby providing electrical advantages imparted by the flip chip interconnect structures. In this connection, various diversely dimensioned solder column interconnects allow for simple and dependable connections to a substrate by a plurality of superimposed layers or stacked arrays of semiconductor components, such as semiconductor chips. In accordance with a further aspect, it is possible to derive a unique design for an IMS mold structure, which contains cavities for forming the columnar fill of solder, and which also incorporates further cavities acting as cutouts for dies or the positioning of other electronic packages or modules.

Composite interconnect structure forming methods using injection molded solder are disclosed. The methods provide a mold having at least one opening formed therein with each opening including a member of a material dissimilar to a solder to be used to fill the opening, and then fill the remainder of each opening with solder to form the composite interconnect structure. The resulting composite interconnect structure can be leveraged to achieve a much larger variety of composite structures than exhibited by the prior art. For example, the material may be chosen to be more electrically conductive than the solder portion, more electromigration-resistant than the solder portion and/or more fatigue-resistant than the solder portion. In one embodiment, the composite interconnect structure can include an optical structure, or plastic or ceramic material. The optical structure provides radiation propagation and/or amplification between waveguides in the substrate and device, and the plastic material provides fatigue-resistance.

Methods for fabricating microelectronic interconnection structures as well as the structures formed by the methods are disclosed which improve the manufacturing throughput for assembling flip chip semiconductor devices. The use of a bilayer of polymeric materials applied on the wafer prior to dicing eliminates the need for dispensing and curing underfill for each semiconductor at the package level, thereby improving manufacturing throughput and reducing cost.
