During the processing of organic (CCL) advanced IC substrates (AICS) the substrates become distorted which impacts the overlay of Via to RDL pad structures. To solve this problem, the stepper must adjust the alignment solution to match the previous layer’s distortion by measuring the overlay. Proprietary software provides the user with the ability to adjust each zone of the AICS with independent offsets.
The growing demand for heterogeneous integration is driven by the 5G market. This includes smartphones, data centers, servers, high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI) and internet of things (IoT) applications. Next generation packaging technologies require tighter overlay to accommodate larger package sizes with fine-pitch chip interconnects on large-format flexible panels.

Hybrid bonding enables ultra-dense 3D memory interconnects with up to 1,000x more connections than microbumps. Achieving high yield requires stringent process control, including monitoring topography and detecting particles, cracks and voids. Measuring dishing in copper pads provides valuable insight into surface conditions. Together, these process control insights contribute to improved device reliability and performance.
As demand grows for high-performance computing (HPC) and AI-driven applications, manufacturers are turning to hybrid bonding to enable the ultra-dense 3D integration required for next-generation chip architectures. This advanced packaging technology presents significant process challenges. Surface preparation must be precisely controlled to eliminate particles, excess recess, and copper pad dishing, all of which can compromise bond quality. During pre-annealing, particle-induced gaps and wide bonding gaps can prevent proper wafer contact. Post-annealing, the formation of dielectric and metal voids introduces further risks to electrical performance and long-term reliability.
