Additionally, the protrusion 232 of the first TSV structure 230 extends into the hybrid bonding structure 280, and the height H of the protrusion 232 within the hybrid bonding structure 280 is between approximately 1 m and approximately 5 m, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0050] According to the method 10 provided by present disclosure, the hybrid bonding structure 280 is formed between the first die 210 and the second die 250. In other words, the first die 210 and the second die 250 are securely bonded to each other by the forming of the hybrid bonding structure 280. As shown in FIG. 2H, in some embodiments, a difference in area may exist between the protrusion 232 of the first TSV structure 230 and the bonding pad 258, and thus either the protrusion 232 or the bonding pad 258 may be in contact with the barrier layer. For example, the protrusion 232 and/or the bonding pad 258 may be in contact with the barrier layer due to a misalignment issue. According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the protrusion 232 may be in contact with the bonding pad 258 and the inorganic barrier layer 260, and metal diffusion can be prevented by the inorganic barrier layer 260. Similarly, the bonding pad 258 may be in contact with the protrusion 232 and the organic barrier layer 240, and metal diffusion can be prevented by the organic barrier layer 240.

[0051] FIGS. 3A and 3B are schematic drawings illustrating various fabrication stages of the method for preparing the semiconductor package structure in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure. It should be understood that similar features in FIGS. 2A to 2H and FIGS. 3A and 3B can include similar materials and similar parameters, and thus descriptions of such details are omitted in the interest of brevity.

[0052] Referring to FIG. 3A, in some embodiments, step 102 to step 105 can be performed on the second die 250. For example, a portion of the second die 250 is removed at the second back side 254B according to step 102. Significantly, a portion of the substrate 212 is removed such that a portion of the second TSV structure 270 is exposed. In some embodiments, the portion of the second TSV structure 272 is protruded from the second back side 254B of the second die 254B, and thus such portion is referred to as a protrusion 272. In other words, a protrusion 270 of the second TSV structure 270 protrudes from the second back side 254B of the second die 250 after the removal of the portion of the second die 250. Further, a height H of the protrusion 272 of the second TSV structure 270 is between approximately 1 m and approximately 5 m, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the height H of the protrusion 252 of the second TSV structure 270 is approximately 3 m, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0053] Next, an organic barrier layer 240 is disposed over the second die 250 at the second back side 244B, according to step 103. In some embodiments, the organic barrier layer 240 is disposed to envelop the protrusion 272 of the second TSV structure 270.

The semiconductor package structure 200 includes a plurality of dies 210, 250, and 250. The dies 210, 250 and 250 are front-to-back bonded. Further, the dies 210, 250 and 250 are bonded to each other by a hybrid bonding structure 280. Steps for forming the hybrid bonding structure 280 can be similar to those described above, and therefore such details are omitted for brevity. In some embodiments, after stacking and bonding the dies 210, 250 and 250, a portion of the topmost second die 250 at the second back side 254B is removed to expose the second TSV structure 270, and a conductive member 290 is disposed over the second back side 254B of the second die 250. Accordingly, the semiconductor package structure 200 is obtained.

[0056] According to the method 10 provided by the present disclosure, the hybrid bonding structures 280 are formed between each adjacent pair of dies 210, 250 and 250. In other words, the dies 210, 250 and 250 are securely bonded to each other by the forming of the hybrid bonding structures 280. According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, metal diffusion due to surface area difference and/or due to misalignment can be prevented by the organic barrier layer 240 and the inorganic barrier layer 260 of the hybrid bonding structures 280.

[0057] In the present disclosure, a method for preparing a semiconductor package structure is provided. According to the method, a first die and a second die are bonded to each other by a hybrid bonding structure. The hybrid bonding structure includes an organic layer and an inorganic layer. Significantly, both of the organic and inorganic layers perform a metal diffusion prevention function. Therefore, even if a misalignment issue arises between the first TSV structure of the first die and the bonding pad of the second die, metal diffusion can be prevented by the hybrid bonding structure. Alternatively, in some embodiments, when there is a size difference between the first TSV structure and the bonding pad, metal diffusion can be prevented by the hybrid bonding structure.
