AbstractA method is presented for fabricating fully wet-etched InGaN/GaN laser cavities using photoenhanced electrochemical wet etching followed by crystallographic wet etching. Crystallographic wet chemical etching of n- and p-type GaN grown on c-plane sapphire is achieved using H3PO4 and various hydroxides, with etch rates as high as 3.2 μm/min. The crystallographic GaN etch planes are {0001}, {1010}, {1011}, {1012}, and {1013}. The vertical {1010} planes appear perfectly smooth when viewed with a field-effect scanning electron microscope (FESEM), indicating a surface roughness less than 5 nm, suitable for laser facets. The etch rate and crystallographic nature for the various etching solutions are independent of conductivity, as shown by seamless etching of a p-GaN/undoped, high-resistivity GaN homojunction.

A method is presented for fabricating fully wet-etched InGaN/GaN laser cavities using hotoenhanced electrochemical wet etching followed by crystallographic wet etching. Crystallographic wet chemical etching of n- and p-type GaN grown on c-plane sapphire is achieved using H3PO4 and various hydroxides, with etch rates as high as 3.2.μm/min. The crystallographic GaN etch planes are {0001}, {100}, {10}, {10}, and {103}. The vertical {100} planes appear perfectly smooth when viewed with a field-effect scanning electron microscope (FESEM), indicating a surface roughness less than 5 nm, suitable for laser facets. The etch rate and crystallographic nature for the various etching solutions are independent of conductivity, as shown by seamless etching of a p-GaN/undoped, high-resistivity GaN homojunction.

Abstract This paper presents decapsulation solutions for devices bonded with Cu wire. By removing mold compound to a thin layer using a laser ablation tool, Cu wire bonded packages are decapsulated using wet chemical etching by controlling the etch time and temperature. Further, the paper investigates the possibilities of decapsulating Cu wire bonded devices using full wet chemical etches without the facilitation of laser ablation removing much of mold compound. Additional discussion on reliability concerns when evaluating Cu wirebond devices is addressed here. The lack of understanding of the reliability of Cu wire bonded packages creates a challenge to the FA engineer as they must develop techniques to help understanding the reliability issue associated with Cu wire bonding devices. More research and analysis are ongoing to develop appropriate analysis methods and techniques to support the Cu wire bonding device technology in the lab.

Etching System

Solutions consisting of HF - NOHSO4 - H2SO4 exhibit a strong reactivity towards crystalline silicon which is controlled by the concentrations of the reactive species HF and NO+. Selective isotropic and anisotropic wet chemical etching with these solutions allows to generate a wide range of silicon surface morphology patterns. Traces of Ag+ ions stimulate the reactivity and lead to the formation of planarized (polished) silicon surfaces. Analyses of the silicon surface, the etching solution and the gas phase were performed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), DR/FT-IR (diffusive reflection Fourier transform infra-red), FT-IR, Raman and NMR spectroscopy, respectively. It was found that the resulting silicon surface is hydrogen-terminated. The gas phase contains predominantly SiF4, NO and N2O. Furthermore, NH4+ is produced in solution. The study has confirmed the crucial role of nitrosyl ions for isotropic wet chemical etching processes. The novel etching system is proposed as an effective new way for selective surface texturing of multi- and monocrystalline silicon. A high etching bath service lifetime, besides a low contamination of the etching solution with reaction products, provides ecological and economical advantages for the semiconductor and solar industry.
