Fluxless flip chip bonding process using plasma treatment instead of flux was investigated. The effect of plasma process parameters on tin-oxide etching characteristics were estimated with Auger depth profile analysis. The die shear test was performed to evaluate the adhesion strength of the flip chip bonded after plasma treatment. The thickness of oxide layer on tin surface was reduced after Ar+H2 plasma treatment. The addition of H2 improved the oxide etching characteristics by plasma. The die shear strength of the plasma-treated Sn-Pb solder flip chip was higher than that of non-treated one but lower than that of fluxed one. The difference of the strength between plasma-treated specimen and non-treated one increased with increase in bonding temperature. The plasma-treated flip chip fractured at solder/TSM interface at low bonding temperature while the fracture occurred at solder/UBM interface at higher bonding temperature.

본 연구에서는 실리콘 웨이퍼의 고속 직접접합 공정을 위하여 상압 플라즈마와 함께 에어로젤 형태의 초순수 분사를 이용하여 표면처리 활성화 및 결함이 없는 실리콘 직접접합 공정을 개발하였다. 플라즈마 공정의 다양한 인자, 즉 $N_2$ 가스의 유량, CDA(clean dry air)의 유량, 플라즈마 헤드와 기판 간의 간격, 플라즈마의 인가전압이 플라즈마 활성화, 즉 친수화 처리에 미치는 영향을 접촉각 측정을 통하여 관찰하였다. 또한 열처리 온도 및 열처리 시간이 접합 강도에 미치는 영향을 연구하였으며, 접합 강도의 측정은 crack opening 방법을 이용하였다. 접합 강도가 제일 높은 최적의 열처리 조건은 $400^{\circ}C$의 열처리 온도 및 2 시간의 열처리 시간이었다. 플라즈마 스캔 속도 및 스캔 횟수를 실험계획법을 이용하여 최적화한 결과, 스캔 속도는 30 mm/sec, 스캔 횟수는 4 회에서 최적의 접합 강도를 나타내고 있었다. 열처리 조건과 플라즈마 활성화 조건을 최적화 한 후 직접접합을 하여 적외선투과현미경 등을 이용하여 관찰한 결과, 접합된 웨이퍼에서 접합 공정으로 인한 공극이나 결함은 관찰되지 않았다. 접합된 웨이퍼의 접합 강도는 평균 $2.3J/m^2$의 접합 강도를 나타내고 있었다.

Fluxless flip chip bonding using plasma & ultrasonic wave was investigated in order to evaluate the effect of plasma & ultrasonic treatment on the bondability of the Sn-3.5wt%Ag solder bumped die to TSM-coated glass substrate. The $Ar+10%H_2plasma$ was effective in removing tin oxide on solder surface. The die shear strength of the plasma-treated Si-chip is higher than that of non-treated specimen but lower than that of specimen bonded with flux. The die shear strength with the bonding load at 25W ultrasonic power increased to 0.8N/bump for all bonding temperature but decreased above 1.0N/bump.

The allylamine plasma treatment is used to modify the surface properties of vapor grown carbon fibers (VGCF). It is to improve the interfacial bonding between the VGCF and epoxy matrix. The allylamine plasma process was performed by batch process in a vacuum chamber, using gas injection followed by plasma discharge for the durations of 20, 40 and 60 min. The interdependence of mechanical properties on the VGCF contents, treatment time and interfacial bonding between VGCF/ep was investigated. The interfacial bonding between VGCF and epoxy matrix was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs of nanocomposites fracture surfaces. The changes in the mechanical properties of VGCF/ep, such as the tensile modulus and strength were discussed. The mechanical properties of allylamine plasma treated (AAPT) VGCF/ep were compared with those of raw VGCF/ep. The tensile strength and modulus of allyamine plasma treated VGCF40 (40 min treatment)/ep demonstrated a higher value than those of other samples. The mechanical properties were increased with the allyamine plasma treatment due to the improved adhesion at VGCF/ep interface. The modification of the carbon nanofibers surface was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). SEM micrographs showed an excellent dispersion of VGCF in epoxy matrix by ultrasonic method.

Cold rolled steel sheet for automotive was treated by Ar/$O_2$ atmospheric pressure plasma to improve the adhesive bonding strength. Through the contact angle test and calculation of surface free energy for cold rolled steel sheet, the changes of surface properties were investigated before and after plasma treatment. The contact angle was decreased and surface free energy was increased after plasma treatment. And the change of surface roughness and morphology were observed by AFM(Atomic Force Microscope). The surface roughness of steel sheet was slightly changed. Based on Taguchi method, single lap shear test was performed to investigate the effect of experimental parameter such as plasma power, treatment time and flow rate of $O_2$ gas. Results shows that the bonding strength of steel sheet treated in Ar/$O_2$ atmospheric pressure plasma was improved about 20% compared with untreated sheet.

상압 수소 플라즈마 전처리가 구리-구리 직접 본딩에 미치는 영향에 대해서 조사하였다. 상압 수소 플라즈마 처리를 통해 구리 박막의 표면 산화층을 환원시킬 수 있었음을 GIXRD 분석을 통해 확인하였다. 플라즈마 파워가 크고 플라즈마 처리 시간이 길수록 환원력 및 표면 거칠기 관점에서 효과적이었다. DCB를 이용한 계면 결합 에너지 측정에서 상압 수소 플라즈마 전처리 후 300℃에서 본딩한 경우 양호한 계면 결합 에너지를 나타내었으나, 본딩 온도가 낮아질수록 계면 결합 에너지가 낮아져 200℃에서는 본딩이 이루어지지 않았다. 습식 전처리의 경우 250℃ 이상에서 본딩한 경우 강한 결합력을 보였으며, 200℃에서는 낮은 계면 결합 에너지를 나타내었다.

The effect of plasma cleaning was examined on package delamination phenomena in the integrated circuit (IC) packaging process. Without plasma cleaning, delamination was observed for all three experimental treatments applied after the packaging step, which include bake of If, reflow, and bake of If followed by reflow However, no delamination was observed when the plasma cleaning was performed before and after the wire bonding step. Plasma cleaning was found to be a critical step to improve the reliability of the package by reducing the possibility of contact failure between die pad and bonding wire.

최근 참단 반도체 패키징 기술은 고성능 SIP(system in packaging) 구조로 발전해 가고 있고, 이를 실현시키기 위해서 구리 대 구리 접합은 가장 핵심적인 기술로 대두되고 있다. 구리 대 구리 접합 기술은 아직 구리의 산화 특성과 고온 및 고압력 공정 조건, 등 해결해야 할 문제점들이 남아 있다. 본 연구에서는 아르곤과 질소를 이용한 2단계 플라즈마 공정을 이용한 저온 구리 접합 공정의 접합 계면 품질을 정량적 접합 강도 측정을 통하여 확인하였다. 2단계 플라즈마 공정은 구리 표면에 구리 질화막을 형성하여 저온 구리 접합을 가능하게 한다. 구리 접합 후 접합 강도 측정은 4점 굽힘 시험법과 전단 시험법으로 수행하였으며, 평균 접합 전단 강도는 30.40 MPa로 우수한 접합 강도를 보였다.

Plasma treatment time was optimized to maximize the bonding strength between silicon and quartz. Bonding strength between the silicon and quartz is related to a surface energy which can be calculated by contact angle measurement. It was found that optimized time to get maximized surface energy was 15 sec. Silicon and quartz wafers were treated with $O_2$ plasma under different time splits and then bonded together. Bonding strength of the bonded wafers was measured by shear test. It was verified that the highest bonding strength was obtained when the silicon and quartz wafers were treated for 15 seconds. The maximum bonding strength exceeded the fracture strength of silicon.

Tungsten coatings with different interlayers onto the oxygen-free copper substrates were fabricated by atmosphere plasma spraying. The effects of different interlayers of NiCrAl, NiAl and W/Cu on bonding strength were studied. SEM, EDS and XRD were used to investigate the photographs and compositions of these coatings. The tungsten coatings with different initial particle sizes resulted in different microstructures. Oxidation was not detected in the tungsten coating, but in the interlayer, it was found by both XRD and EDS. The tungsten coating deposited directly onto the copper substrate presented higher bonding strength than those with different interlayers.
