Silicon-based integrated passive device stack for III-V/Si monolithic 3D circuits operating on RF band
In this study, we demonstrated a silicon (Si)-based integrated passive device (IPD) stack to support III-V/Si monolithic 3D (M3D) ICs operating on the radio frequency (RF) band. The IPD stack was fabricated based on an 8-inch CMOS process line and integrated via M3D with an InGaAs HEMT layer. A process condition for a trap rich layer and a buried oxide layer in the IPD was established to simultaneously minimizing both the RF loss and wafer bowing. Through the process condition, the RF loss of the coplanar waveguides was −0.631 dB/mm at 30 GHz, lower than that of the CMOS foundry, and the wafer bowing of the stack was as low as −5.5 μm. The maximum quality factor of the inductors showed good values when compared to those of other CMOS foundry process-based inductors operating on the RF bands reported thus far. To obtain a compressive profile for the IPD stack, which is one of the most important requirements in advancing to wafer-to-wafer-level 3D bonding with the III-V active layer, a process method for the final IMD layer of the IPD was developed, resulting in a change from a tensile profile to a compressive profile for the IPD (corresponding wafer bowing value from −12.6 to + 10.7 μm).
