Abstract
A fabricating method of three-dimensional wirings on a cantilever-type silicon probe has been developed for a semiconductor testing. The cantilever-type silicon probe consists of probe-tips, cantilevers, apertures and three-dimensional wirings. The wiring is connected from probe-tip to back-side electrode via cantilever edge, cantilever backside and aperture side-wall. The problem of the cantilever-type silicon probe is that breakings of wiring occur at the cantilever edge and the aperture edge. The shapes of the cantilever edge and the aperture edge are optimized by applying a compensation mask and a roof-removal mask, respectively. We fabricate the cantilever-type silicon probe without breaking of wiring in 1216 pins, and confirm to be able to contact aluminum electrodes on the semiconductor.
