Abstract
The electromigration (EM) behavior of graphene‐doped twinned copper composite (GC–Cu) and nanotwinned copper (NT–Cu) redistributed layers (RDLs) are investigated. Firstly, the GC–Cu has longer lifetimes under various test conditions. For example, the GC–Cu RDL took 291 h to reach a 20% resistance increase, while the NT–Cu RDL took 117 h under the same condition of 120 °C and 106 A cm−2. Secondly, thinner oxidation layer and slighter voiding phenomena are detected on GC–Cu RDLs. When the line width and spacing (L/S) of RDL decreased from 20/20 μm to 10/10 μm, new failure modes, i.e., fracture of oxide layer, separation between the oxide layer and copper matrix are also detected, demonstrating the increasing thermal mismatch. Combined with the finite element analysis (FEA), there is simultaneous current aggregation and stress concentration around the voids, which should further cause the degradation of RDL. Above all, this study gives insights into the material design in the fine‐pitch RDL structure.
