Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for manufacturing a sensor packaging according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes: forming a via hole penetrating a main substrate by etching each of both surfaces of the main substrate; forming an insulating layer on a wall surface of the via hole and the both surfaces of the main substrate; combining a sub-substrate on which a metallic seed layer and a bonding layer having a pattern for exposing a part of the seed layer are laminated with the main substrate; forming a filling layer configured to cover an upper surface of the main substrate by filling metal in the via hole; and removing the sub-substrate from the main substrate.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for manufacturing a sensor packaging, the method comprising: forming a via hole penetrating a main substrate by etching each of both surfaces of the main substrate; forming an insulating layer on a wall surface of the via hole and the both surfaces of the main substrate; combining a sub-substrate on which a metallic seed layer and a bonding layer having a pattern for exposing a part of the seed layer are laminated with the main substrate; forming a filling layer configured to cover an upper surface of the main substrate by filling metal in the via hole; and removing the sub-substrate from the main substrate. 2. The method for manufacturing a sensor packaging of claim 1 , wherein the forming of a via hole includes: forming the via hole by performing Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE) to each of an upper surface and a lower surface of the main substrate. 3. The method for manufacturing a sensor packaging of claim 1 , wherein the wall surface of the via hole is formed as a bent slanted surface. 4. The method for manufacturing a sensor packaging of claim 1 , wherein the forming of an insulating layer includes: forming the insulating layer using a polymer which is available for deposition at room temperature. 5. The method for manufacturing a sensor packaging of claim 4 , wherein the polymer includes parylene. 6. The method for manufacturing a sensor packaging of claim 1 , wherein the combining of a sub-substrate with the main substrate includes: preparing the sub-substrate on which the seed layer is deposited in advance; forming the bonding layer on the seed layer of the sub-substrate; forming the pattern by etching a part of the bonding layer; and combining the sub-substrate with the main substrate by aligning and bonding the bonding layer of the sub-substrate and the insulating layer of the main substrate such that the pattern matches with the via hole. 7. The method for manufacturing a sensor packaging of claim 6 , wherein the bonding layer is formed of a polymer including at least one of parylene, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), SU8, photoresist, and the like. 8. The method for manufacturing a sensor packaging of claim 6 , wherein the pattern is formed after or at the same time when the bonding layer is deposited on the seed layer. 9. The method for manufacturing a sensor packaging of claim 1 , wherein the main substrate includes a silicon wafer, and the sub-substrate includes a handle wafer or a handle tape.
