| Abstract | One of the key technologies for 3D packaging is forming the Through Silicon Vias (TSV) using plasma etching. For the 3D packaging of active devices such as CMOS sensors, which exhibit low to moderate I/O counts, it was shown in recent years, that costs for TSV interconnects can be reduced by producing tapered via features, which ease subsequent process steps such as deposition of dielectrics, metal layers and photo resists. For different applications the adjustment of dedicated via profiles is desirable. For the practical use the process engineer is confronted with a variety of different process parameters, which exhibit strong interactions between each other and therefore make an extensive testing necessary when a new process needs to be developed. The knowledge of these interactions is therefore needed. The etching of tapered TSVs using fluorine based chemistry is discussed in this paper. The influence of the governing process parameters such as pressure, gas flow ratio and power is discussed in order to produce profiles with continuous tangent and minimal surface roughness of the structures. Emerging structures with etching effects such as micro masking or the appearance of profiles with gradient taper are shown in order to reveal guidelines in which direction the process needs to be adjusted to stay in the process window. A model is presented and discussed which is able to predict the profile angle as a function of the process parameters. This gives the ability to produce tapered profiles from 65° to 85° without the burden of an enormous experimental effort. Interrelated etching performance such as photoresist selectivity, etching rate and the occurrence of lateral under etching is presented as well so that design rules can be derived for the specific process. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
