Plasma Surface Treatment for HBM Advanced Packaging

2026-06-18

HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) has become a critical component in AI accelerators, GPUs, and high-performance computing systems. As HBM technology evolves toward higher stacking layers and greater integration density, packaging reliability becomes increasingly important.


During HBM packaging processes, wafer surfaces, TSV structures, micro bumps, and interposers may contain organic contaminants, oxide layers, and microscopic particles. These contaminants can negatively affect bonding quality and long-term package reliability.


Plasma surface treatment effectively cleans and activates material surfaces, providing:


 Improved surface cleanliness

 Enhanced surface energy

 Better micro bump bonding

 Improved underfill adhesion

 Increased package reliability


Typical applications include:


 Wafer bonding

 TSV processing

 Micro bump packaging

 Underfill preparation

 CoWoS advanced packaging
