Problems solved by technology

During this process, due to the physical bombardment of ions and the chemical reaction during annealing, the photolithographic overlay mark is worn, and the size of the alignment mark will change, the resolution of the pattern will decrease, the step difference will decrease, the contrast will decrease, and the pattern will be smoked. Disappearance and other issues
This affects the photolithographic alignment of the photolithographic overlay marks, reduces the precision of the subsequent manufacturing process of power semiconductor devices, and increases the reject rate and production cost of power semiconductor devices

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a photolithographic overlay mark and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method includes the following steps: step S1: making a pattern of marking points, transferring the pattern of marking points to the chip to expose the epitaxial layer; step S2: etching the epitaxial layer; step S3: evaporating metal marking points, the metal structure is CrAlTiPtAu ; The CrAlTiPtAu metal structure is a metal Cr layer, an Al layer, a Ti layer, a Pt layer, and an Au layer from bottom to top; step S4: stripping and removing glue. The photolithographic overlay mark prepared by the method provided by the invention has strong wear resistance, high resolution, is not easy to be corroded, and is extremely slightly affected by the physical bombardment of ions and the corrosion of chemical solutions; at the same time, the metal marking points of the present invention can reflect light, Make the metal marking points clearer and improve the alignment accuracy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a photolithography overlay mark and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] A semiconductor refers to a material whose electrical conductivity is between that of a conductor and an insulator at room temperature. With the advancement of science and technology and the development of society, semiconductors are widely used in integrated circuits, consumer electronics, communication systems, photovoltaic power generation, lighting, high-power power conversion and other fields. The core units of most electronic products, such as computers, mobile phones or digital recorders, are closely related to semiconductors. In the semiconductor manufacturing process, the lithography process is the core technology, and the accuracy of the overlay will directly affect the appearance and performance of the product. [0003] The traditional overlay process forms the powe...
