Abstract :
Low cost and low temperature fabrication process is required for TSV. In this study, we propose a low temperature deposition of barrier and copper seed layers by wet process only using electroless plating. Moreover, we use AuNPs as a catalyst which is densely adsorbed on SiO2 sidewall of TSV with SAM. We succeeded in conformal deposition of barrier and seed layers, and this method is effective for realizing a low resistance Cu-filled TSV.
