摘要 |
<p>A method is disclosed of repairing wirebond damage on semiconductor chips such as high speed semiconductor microprocessors, application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), and other high speed integrated circuit devices, particularly devices using low-k dielectric materials. The method involves surface modification using reactive liquids. In a preferred embodiment, the method comprises applying a silicon-containing liquid reagent precursor such as TEOS to the surface of the chip and allowing the liquid reagent to react with moisture to form a solid dielectric plug or film (50) to produce a barrier against moisture ingress, thereby enhancing the temperature/ humiditylbias (THB) performance of such semiconductor devices.</p> |
