A method of manufacturing a semiconductor memory device includes processing a first substrate including a first align mark and a first structure, processing a second substrate including a second align mark and a second structure, orientating the first substrate and the second substrate such that the first structure and the second structure face each other, and controlling alignment between the first structure and the second structure by using the first align mark and the second align mark to couple the first structure with the second structure.

A copper pillar bump for an electrode pad of a semiconductor chip includes a first copper layer, a first metal layer formed directly on the first copper layer, a second copper layer formed directly on the first metal layer, and a second metal layer formed directly on the second copper layer, wherein the first metal layer and the second metal layer are made of a metal having a different etching rate than copper, wherein an outer perimeter ring of the first metal layer protrudes beyond a lateral surface of the first copper layer, and wherein an outer perimeter ring of the second metal layer protrudes beyond a lateral surface of the second copper layer.

A structure includes a die substrate; a passivation layer on the die substrate; first and second interconnect structures on the passivation layer; and a barrier on the passivation layer, at least one of the first or second interconnect structures, or a combination thereof. The first and second interconnect structures comprise first and second via portions through the passivation layer to first and second conductive features of the die substrate, respectively. The first and second interconnect structures further comprise first and second pads, respectively, and first and second transition elements on a surface of the passivation layer between the first and second via portion and the first and second pad, respectively. The barrier is disposed between the first pad and the second pad. The barrier does not fully encircle at least one of the first pad or the second pad.

A bump structure with a barrier layer, and a method for manufacturing the bump structure, are provided. In some embodiments, the bump structure comprises a conductive pad, a conductive bump, and a barrier layer. The conductive pad comprises a pad material. The conductive bump overlies the conductive pad, and comprises a lower bump layer and an upper bump layer covering the lower bump layer. The barrier layer is configured to block movement of the pad material from the conductive pad to the upper bump layer along sidewalls of the lower bump layer. In some embodiments, the barrier layer is a spacer lining the sidewalls of the lower bump layer. In other embodiments, the barrier layer is between the barrier layer and the conductive pad, and spaces the sidewalls of the lower bump layer from the conductive pad.

The present disclosure relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and discloses a semiconductor structure and a manufacturing method thereof. The semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor substrate, a metal pad, a bump, a first solder layer, a barrier layer, and a second solder layer. The metal pad is disposed on the semiconductor substrate; the bump is arranged on the metal pad; the barrier layer is configured on the side of the bump away from the metal pad. The barrier layer includes a first surface and a second surface. The first solder layer is arranged between the bump and the first surface of the barrier layer. The second solder layer is configured on the second surface of the barrier layer. Since the first solder layer and the second solder layer are formed by reflowed and melt solder at a high temperature and can be stretched, the height of the second solder can be adjusted automatically, which reduces the non-wetting problem caused by the package substrate deformation after reflow.
