Electro-deposition for Micro-devices Through Mask Plating Damascene Plating Insulator deposition and patterning Seed-layer deposition Seed layer deposition and Patterning seed layer substrate Plating Plating Mask removal Seed-layer etching Planarization
Electroplating Reactions: e- Ni2+ + 2 e- Ni (cathode reaction) 2Cl- 2 e- + Cl2 (anode reaction) anode cathode NiCl2 Ni + Cl2 2H+ + 2 e- H2 (competing reaction at cathode ) => PH value important !! KCl NiCl2 Na2+ Cl+ Amount of deposited material : KCl : Supporting electrolyte NiCl2 : Electro-active species F: Faraday constant (electricity required to deposit 1 g equivalent of substance) I : current t : deposition time M : molecular weigh of the depositing material z : ion’s charges #
Diffusion Limited Reactions Diffusion limited cathode current: current density Nonlinear diffusion effect on microelectrodes
Nonlinear diffusion effect on microelectrodes Effect of current density on stress
電 鍍 鎳(NTHU ESS Micro-fabrication lab) 電 鍍 結 果 配 方 • 氨基磺酸鎳 300 公克/公升 • 氯化鎳 20 公克/公升 • 硼酸 40 公克/公升 • LN-MU (應力降低劑) • LN-MA (平滑劑, 光澤劑) • 針孔抑制劑
電 流 密 度 影 響 • 電流密度 15 mA/cm2 • 電流密度 40 mA/cm2 其他參數:PH 值、溫度、表面活化劑
High Aspect Ratio Structure Plating Challenges: Ni2+ current diffusion limited => deposition rate H+ at bottom depleted => PH increase locally => form nickel hydroxide => deposition stopped
