Very high aspect ratio through silicon vias (TSVs) using wire bonding

摘要

This paper reports a fabrication approach for very high aspect ratio through silicon vias (TSVs). The metal filling of the through via holes is implemented by adapting standard wire bonding technology. TSVs with a diameter of 30 μm and aspect ratios between 10:1 and 20:1 have been fabricated. Basic electrical characterization and optical inspection have been conducted to verify the resistance and integrity of the metal and insulator filling of the TSV.
