Abstract

This article presents research on the applications of SU-8-based structural material for three different types of semiconductor processing. The processing method using SU-8 as a cost-effective final protection layer replaces the traditional SiNx or SiO2 thin films in integrated passive devices (IPDs). To evaluate the moisture resistance of the SU-8 films, SU-8 and SiNx are subjected to 1,000 h, 85°C, 85% relative humidity (RH) reverse bias tests and the results are compared. SU-8 is also applied as an isolation layer in light-emitting diode (LED) module fabrication processing, which provides electrical isolation and protection for the ground Cu/Ni/Au-plated metal interconnection. Finally, SU-8 is used in high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) input/output matching circuit as a dielectric layer for the realization of DC block capacitor.
