The all-wet process for TSV-fill utilizing electroless barrier and seed technologies prior to electroplating of Cu is promising methods to realize low-cost and highly reliable Cu-filled TSVs for 3-D integration of Si. Although there have been numerous studies to form electroless barrier layers such as Co- and Ni- alloys, poor adhesion of these barrier layers have been a serious problem. In this study, we studied effect of various additives on the adhesion strength of electroplated CoWB film. It is shown that addition of saccharine, which has both sulfone- and amino- groups, significantly improved adhesion strength. In the case of electroless barrier and seed technologies, a highly conformal film is formed even for a high aspect ratio TSVs at a low temperature around room temperature. However, it was found that the adhesion strength got poorer for the electroless plated CoWB with increasing film thickness, and delamination occurred with thickness larger than 100 nm. (5-7) This may be due to an increase in the film stress with thickness, and therefore, we have studied to reduce the film stress with addition of organic additives in the plating bath. Experimental methods and sample preparation Fabrication procedure of a barrier film in a TSV is shown in Fig.1. At first, we cleaned the samples with Piranha solution (H2SO4: at H2O2 = 4:1) by dipping a sample substrate in it. Then the sample was ultrasonically cleaned with acetone. Next, we performed adsorption treatment of Pt nanoparticles on TSV inner walls. Silane coupling treatment using APTES (3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane) was performed on SiO2 surface with toluene as a solvent. A self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of APTES was formed by immersing a sample for 1 hour. (8) Then, the substrate was immersed in the solution of Pd nanoparticles (4 nm diameter). An excellent high density monolayer adsorption of Pd nanoparticles was obtained inside the TSV uniformly. (9-11)
