Three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs) are an attractive replacement for conventional 2D ICs as high-performance, low-power-consumption, and small-footprint microelectronic devices. However, one of the major remaining challenges is the manufacture of high-aspect-ratio through-silicon vias (TSVs), which is a crucial technology for the assembly of 3D Si ICs. Here, we present the fabrication of high-quality TSVs using a femtosecond (fs) 1.5-μm Bessel beam. To eliminate the severe ablation caused by the sidelobes of a conventional Bessel beam, a fs Bessel beam is tailored using a specially designed binary phase plate. We demonstrate that the tailored fs Bessel beam can be used to fabricate a 2D array of approximately ∅10-μm TSVs on a 100-μm-thick Si substrate without any sidelobe damage, suggesting potential application in the 3D assembly of 3D Si ICs.
三维集成电路(3D IC)是一种有吸引力的替代传统二维集成电路的方案,因为它具有高性能、低功耗和小尺寸的微电子器件的特点。然而,目前仍面临的一个主要挑战是制造高深宽比的硅通孔(TSV),这是三维硅集成电路组装的关键技术。在这里,我们使用飞秒(fs)1.5μm 贝塞尔光束来制造高质量的 TSV。为了消除传统贝塞尔光束旁瓣引起的严重烧蚀,我们使用专门设计的二元相位板对 fs 贝塞尔光束进行了调整。我们证明,调整后的 fs 贝塞尔光束可以用于在 100μm 厚的硅衬底上制造大约∅10μm 的二维 TSV 阵列,而不会有任何旁瓣损坏,这表明它在三维硅集成电路的三维组装中有潜在的应用。
