Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the resistance measurement circuit of the existing bonding structure, the measurement is performed by forming a series structure between the pads, the metal interconnection wires, and the conductive plugs connecting the two on the respective wafers. Since the pads, the conductive plugs, The resistance of the metal interconnection is generally separated from the total test results by empirical values, and the resistance of the bonding structure is much smaller than the resistance of the above three, so the resistance of the bonding structure obtained by the above method is not accurate

Abstract

The invention provides a semiconductor structure and a method for acquiring the resistance of a water-level bonding structure by adopting the same. The acquiring method comprises the steps of measuring the resistances of two wafers before and after bonding, and acquiring the resistance of a water-level bonding structure according to the series-parallel relationship between the resistances of the two wafers before and after bonding and the resistance of the water-level bonding structure. The acquiring method does not rely on the experience values of the resistances of a pad, a metal interconnect and a conductive plug for connecting the pad and the metal interconnect, so that the acquired resistance of the water-level bonding structure is accurate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a semiconductor structure and a method for obtaining the resistance of a wafer-level bonding structure by using the semiconductor structure. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the development of large-scale integration of semiconductor devices has driven chip designers and manufacturers to continuously seek new circuit design methods to maximize the use of chip space. A three-dimensional integrated circuit (3D Integrated Circuit, 3D IC) is a system-level architecture that is composed of multiple wafers, where each wafer contains a stack of multiple planar device layers. Based on the above advantages, 3D integrated circuits are increasingly concerned by researchers. [0003] In a typical 3D integrated circuit, copper-copper bonding (Cu Cu Bonding) is used to bond two wafers each with an active device, which is also called wafer-level (Wafer Level) ...
