Problems solved by technology

However, this method of limiting the interval time (Q time) between the aluminum alloy passivation layer forming step (step 6) and the polyimide protective layer forming step (step 7) is not particularly reliable, once the Q time is exceeded , lattice defects will be generated in the pad area
Moreover, lattice defects were found in the pad area even after the polyimide protective layer was formed
These defects can negatively affect the reliability of DRAM

specific Embodiment

[0015] A method of cleaning and removing lattice defects in a pad (PAD) region of a semiconductor device with an organic solvent (EKC, ACT, etc.) according to the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 . Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a pad forming process of a semiconductor device according to the present invention. Fig. 3 is a flow chart of organic solvent (EKC, ACT, etc.) cleaning treatment.

[0016] The bonding pad forming process flow of the semiconductor device according to the present invention shown in Figure 2 is to increase step S1 (detection soldering) between step 6 and step 7 of the existing bonding pad forming process flow of the semiconductor device shown in Figure 1 Whether there is a lattice defect in the pad area); and step S2 (when step S1 detects that there is a lattice defect in the pad area, perform organic solvent (EKC, ACT, etc.) cleaning treatment). In step S1, use an optical microscope (OM) to detect whether the...

Abstract

This invention discloses a method for removing lattice defect in the pad zone, after forming an Al alloy purification layer and before forming a polyimide protection layer on the pad, it is tested that if the lattice defect exists in the pad, if so, the organic solvent of EKC and ACT cleaning process is made to remove the lattice defect in the zone.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the method for removing the lattice defect in the bonding pad (PAD) region of semiconductor device, particularly relate to the method for cleaning and removing the lattice defect in the bonding pad (PAD) region of semiconductor device with organic solvent (EKC, ACT etc.) , especially a method for cleaning and removing lattice defects in a pad (PAD) region of a dynamic random access memory (hereinafter referred to as DRAM) with an organic solvent (EKC, ACT, etc.). Background technique [0002] Semiconductor devices include various types of active devices. For example, dynamic random access memory (DRAM) is a semiconductor device with a multi-layer structure. In order to connect components formed in various film layers together to form a complete DRAM, and the required electronic circuit modules are formed by connecting DRAM with other semiconductor devices or other electronic components. To complete these connections, ma...
