     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     Embodiments will be hereinafter explained with reference to drawings. 
     First Embodiment 
     The semiconductor device according to the first embodiment will be hereinafter explained with reference to drawings. 
     First, a configuration of a semiconductor device according to the first embodiment will be explained with reference to  FIG. 1 .  FIG. 1  is a cross sectional view illustrating the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. 
     As shown in  FIG. 1 , the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment includes multiple high frequency devices  1 , and each of the multiple high frequency devices  1  is sealed via a bump electrode  3  with a cap  2  in a hollow manner. Each of the high frequency devices  1  is formed on a chemical compound substrate  6  such as GaAs, and has at least a pair of pad electrodes  7  made of Au and the like. 
     On the other hand, the cap  2  is made of high resistance silicon and the like and includes at least a pair of through-hole electrodes  8  filled with Cu and the like at the positions corresponding to the pad electrodes  7 . In the high frequency device  1  and the cap  2  of each pair, the pad electrode  7  and the through-hole electrode  8  are bonded via the bump electrode  3  made of AuSn solder, Au Stud Bump, and the like so as to make an interval of about 50 to 100 μm, and this high frequency device  1  is sealed in a hollow manner. 
     Multiple high frequency devices  1  sealed in a hollow manner are rearranged in a row with a predetermined distance therebetween, and thereafter, the high frequency devices  1  are sealed with a mold resin  4  made of epoxy resin and the like, thus being configured as a restructured wafer. A layer insulating film  9  made of polyimide and the like and a re-wiring layers  10  made of Al/Ti thin film are alternately formed on this restructured wafer, so that a multi-layer wire layer  5  is formed. 
     In this manner, the high frequency device  1  is sealed by the cap  2  in a hollow manner, and further sealed in the mold resin  4 , and further a signal of the high frequency device  1  formed with the multi-layer wire layer  5  is controlled from the outside via the pad electrode  7 , the bump electrode  3 , the through-hole electrode  8 , and the re-wiring layer  10 . 
     Subsequently, overview of the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment will be explained with reference to  FIGS. 2A and 2B .  FIG. 2A  is a partially enlarged view illustrating a semiconductor device according to the first embodiment.  FIG. 2B  is a view seen in a direction 90 degrees rotated from  FIG. 2A . 
     As shown in  FIGS. 2A and 2B , the bump electrode  3  in the protruding shape made of metal provided on the pad electrode  7  includes a protruding distal end portion and a bottom portion wider than the distal end portion. This distal end portion is pressed into the through-hole electrode  8  of the cap  2 , so that the through-hole electrode  8  is deformed, whereby the cap  2  and the through-hole hole electrode  8  are bonded. 
     Subsequently, the method for producing the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment will be explained with reference to  FIGS. 3A to 3F .  FIGS. 3A to 3F  are step views illustrating the method for producing the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. 
     First, as shown in  FIG. 3A , a trench structure of which thickness is about 200 μm is formed by reactive ion etching method (RIE) in the cap  2  having high resistance silicon (the thickness of the substrate is about 400 μm). 
     Subsequently, as shown in  FIG. 3B , the surface of the cap  2  including a trench structure is oxidized under a high temperature of about 1100 degrees Celsius, and the silicon oxide film  11  is formed about 1 nm. 
     Further, as shown in  FIG. 3C , the through-hole electrode  8  (about 50 μm) is formed in a trench structure portion in a liquid obtained by mixing copper sulfate, sulfuric acid, and additive by electroplating method. 
     As shown in  FIG. 3D , using the polishing device, the through-hole electrode  8  (about 50 μm) deposited on the surface of the cap  2  is removed. In the polishing, first, the cap  2  is polished by being pressed against the polishing board of which polishing surface of a roughness of about #600 is rotated 240 rpm, and thereafter, in a polishing liquid including alumina fine particles, and then it is carried out by a polishing board of a roughness of #1000. Further, using a grinding device, the silicon on the back surface of the cap  2  is grinded about 300 μm with a grindstone of which roughness is #230, and the through-hole electrode  8  is exposed, and thereafter, using the polishing device, surface polishing is carried out with a grindstone of roughness #600. 
     As shown in  FIG. 3( e ) , a resist pattern (thickness about 2 μm) is formed by photolithography method. Subsequently, using a sputtering device, a barrier metal layer (Au/Ni/Ti: 0.2 μm/0.3 μm/0.1 μm) is formed on this resist pattern. Further, with acetone ultrasonic processing, the barrier metal layer on the resist pattern is separated by so-called lift-off method, and the barrier metal  13  is formed on the through-hole electrode  8 . This barrier metal  13  is formed to prevent the surface oxidization of Cu of the through-hole electrode  8 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 3F , on the semiconductor chip  12  (GaAs chip), the bump electrodes  3  are formed on the predetermined pad electrodes  7  using a wire bonding device with a implementation temperature of 200 degrees Celsius, and an ultrasonic electric current of 50 mA to 80 mA. The semiconductor chip  12  having the bump electrodes  3  formed thereon is thermocompression-bonded to the cap  2  formed with the barrier metal  13  under a condition of a stage temperature of 200 degrees Celsius, a tool temperature of 300 degrees Celsius, a tool pressure 1N/bump, and a thermocompression time of 20 seconds, so that the bump electrode  3  and the through-hole electrode  8  of the cap  2  are bonded. 
     In the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment, when the barrier metal  13  is not formed in  FIG. 3B , the oxide film layer of Cu is thinly formed on the surface of the through-hole electrode  8 , but even in such case, the bump electrode  3  penetrates through the oxide film layer, and is pressed into the through-hole electrode  8 . 
     Further, an experiment result of the bonding step of pressing-in of the bump electrode in the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment will be explained with reference to  FIGS. 4A and 4B .  FIGS. 4A and 4B  are figures illustrating an experiment result of a bonding step of pressing-in of a bump electrode in the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. 
     As shown in  FIG. 4A , on the semiconductor chip  12  (GaAs chip), the bump electrodes  3  which are protruding shape electrodes are formed on the predetermined pad electrodes  7  using a wire bonding device with a implementation temperature of 200 degrees Celsius, and an ultrasonic electric current of 50 mA to 80 mA. The bump electrodes  3  are made of Au including about 0.5 to 5% of Pd in order to improve the hardness. 
     The cap  2  includes the through-hole electrode  8 , the silicon oxide film  11 , and the barrier metal  13 . The through-hole electrode  8  is filled with Cu, and the silicon oxide film  11  is formed on the side surface thereof. In this case, the silicon oxide film  11  is formed to hold the insulating property between the through-hole electrodes  8 . Further, the barrier metal  13  is formed on the through-hole electrode  8 . In this case, after Cu is filled in the through-hole electrode  8 , the barrier metal  13  is formed to prevent the Cu surface from being oxidized. 
     In this case, as shown in  FIG. 4B , the bump electrode  3  and the through-hole electrode  8  of the cap  2  are bonded by thermocompression. This thermocompression is carried out using a flip chip bonder with a pressure=1N/bump, a thermocompression time of 20 seconds, a tool temperature of 250 degrees Celsius, and a stage temperature of 200 degrees Celsius. When  FIG. 3B  is observed, the protruding portion of the bump electrode  3  which is the electrode in the protruding shape can be found to be pressed into the through-hole electrode  8  by a depth of about 30 μm to 50 μm. 
       FIG. 5  is configuration diagram after the bump electrode and the cap are bonded in the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. 
     As shown in  FIG. 5 , the bump electrode  3  which is the protruding shape electrode penetrates through the barrier metal  13  and pressed into the through-hole electrode  8  filled with Cu. The barrier metal  13  is for the purpose of preventing the surface of the through-hole electrode  8  filled with Cu from being oxidized, and therefore, when the bump electrode  3  penetrates through the barrier metal  13  and pressed into the through-hole electrode  8 , no problem would occur even if the barrier metal  13  is destroyed. 
     The phenomenon for embedding the bump electrode  3  into the through-hole electrode  8  is caused by the fact that the hardness of the bump electrode  3  is harder than the through-hole electrode  8 . More specifically, the Vickers hardness of the bump electrode  3  made of Au including 5% of Pd or less is 80 Hv, whereas the Vickers hardness of Cu filled in the through-hole electrode  8  is about 70 Hv. 
     Further, a relationship of a press-in depth of a bump electrode and a bonding strength between a bump electrode and a through-hole electrode of the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment will be shown with reference to  FIGS. 6A and 6B .  FIGS. 6A and 6B  are graphs illustrating a relationship of a press-in depth of a bump electrode and a bonding strength between a bump electrode and a through-hole electrode of the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment. 
     As shown in  FIGS. 6A and 6B , about 2.3 times higher bonding strength can be obtained in a case where the press-in depth is 50 μm than in a case where the press-in depth is 0 μm. This is caused by an anchoring effect of the press-in and the increase in the size of area of contact between the bump electrode  3  and the through-hole electrode  8 . With the anchoring effect of the press-in of the distal end portion of the bump electrode  3  into the through-hole electrode  8 , the shear strength is improved, and this prevents failure of separation at the bonding portion between the cap  2  and the bump electrode  3 , and thus, a highly reliable connection structure is achieved. 
     As described above, in the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment, multiple high frequency devices  1  are rearranged in proximity, further, the high frequency devices  1  are connected with the still finer re-wiring layer  10 , so that multiple high frequency devices  1  can be integrated with a high density. Therefore, in the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment, on a single restructured wafer, more high frequency devices  1  can be provided, so that the cost of production can be reduced. Further, in the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment, the high frequency device  1  has a space from the cap  2  made of a high resistance silicon and the like, and therefore, this reduce interference between the high frequency device  1  and the cap  2 , and the signal transmission can be done with a low loss, so that a high performance semiconductor module having multiple high performance high frequency devices  1  can be produced. 
     Second Embodiment 
     A semiconductor device according to the second embodiment will be hereinafter explained with reference to  FIG. 7 . The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment only in that the through-hole electrode  14  is different. Therefore, except the description of this through-hole electrode  14 , the second embodiment is the same as the first embodiment, and therefore, the same elements are denoted with the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereabout is omitted.  FIG. 7  is configuration diagram after the bump electrode and the cap are bonded in the semiconductor device according to the second embodiment. 
     As shown in  FIG. 7 , the structure of the through-hole electrode  8  is two-layer structure including a first through-hole electrode  14  filled with Cu of an ordinary density and a second through-hole electrode  15  filled with porous Cu of a lower density. In this case, when the bump electrode  3  is pressed into the second through-hole electrode  15  filled with the porous Cu, the second through-hole electrode  15  filled with the porous Cu is more greatly deformed than the first through-hole electrode  14 , and therefore, the bump electrode  3  digs into the through-hole electrode  8  more deeply. 
     Subsequently, a method for producing the semiconductor device according to the second embodiment will be explained with reference to  FIGS. 8A to 8G .  FIGS. 8A to 8G  are step views illustrating the method for producing the semiconductor device according to the second embodiment.

     Subsequently, as shown in  FIG. 8B , the surface of the cap  2  including the trench structure is oxidized under a high temperature of about 1100 degrees Celsius, and the silicon oxide film  11  is formed about 1 nm. 
     Further, as shown in  FIG. 8C , using the sputtering device, the second through-hole electrode  15  (Cu/Ti which is about 3 μm/0.1 μm) is formed on the surface of the cap  2 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 8D , a metal film (Cu: about 50 μm) is formed in a trench structure portion in a liquid obtained by mixing copper sulfate, sulfuric acid, and additive by electroplating method. Further, on the second through-hole electrode  15  formed by the electroplating method, a porous first through-hole electrode  14  (about 1 μm) is formed in a mixed liquid including copper sulfate, sodium hypophosphite, boric acid, nickel sulfate, and additive by the electroless plating method. Thereafter, a metal film (Cu: about 50 μm) is formed in a liquid obtained by mixing copper sulfate, sulfuric acid, and additive by electroplating method. As a result, the porous first through-hole electrode  14  serving as the foundation can be made into a thicker film of 51 μm. 
     As shown in  FIG. 8E , the first through-hole electrode  14  and the second through-hole electrode  15  (about 50 μm) deposited on the surface of the cap  2  are removed by the polishing device. In the polishing, first, the cap  2  is polished by being pressed against the polishing board of which polishing surface of a roughness of about #600 is rotated 240 rpm, and thereafter, in a polishing liquid including alumina fine particles, and then it is carried out by a polishing board of a roughness of #1000. Further, using a grinding device, the silicon on the back surface of the cap  2  is grinded about 300 μm with a grindstone of which roughness is #230, and the through-hole electrode  8  is exposed, and thereafter, using the polishing device, surface polishing is carried out with a grindstone of roughness #600. 
     As shown in  FIG. 8F , a resist pattern (thickness about 2 μm) is formed by photolithography method. Subsequently, using a sputtering device, a barrier metal layer (Au/Ni/Ti: 0.2 μm/0.3 μm/0.1 μm) is formed on this resist pattern. Further, with acetone ultrasonic processing, the barrier metal layer on the resist pattern is separated by so-called lift-off method, and the barrier metal  13  is formed on the through-hole electrode  8 . This barrier metal  13  is formed to prevent the surface oxidization of Cu of the through-hole electrode  8 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 8G , on the semiconductor chip  12  (GaAs chip), the bump electrodes  3  are formed on the predetermined pad electrodes  7  using a wire bonding device with a implementation temperature of 200 degrees Celsius, and an ultrasonic electric current of 50 mA to 80 mA. The semiconductor chip  12  having the bump electrodes  3  formed thereon is thermocompression-bonded to the cap  2  formed with the barrier metal  13  under a condition of a stage temperature of 200 degrees Celsius, a tool temperature of 300 degrees Celsius, a tool pressure 1N/bump, and a thermocompression time of 20 seconds, so that the bump electrode  3  and the through-hole electrode  8  of the cap  2  are bonded. 
     In the semiconductor device according to the second embodiment explained above, the inventors have confirmed that, after the bump electrode  3  and the cap  2  are bonded, the distal end portion of the bump electrode  3  penetrates through the barrier metal  13 , and is inserted into the through-hole electrode  8 . When the barrier metal  13  is not formed, the Cu oxide film layer is thinly formed on the surface of the through-hole electrode  8 , but the bump electrode  3  penetrates through the oxide film layer, and is pressed into the through-hole electrode  8 . 
     As described above, like the first embodiment, in the semiconductor device according to the second embodiment, multiple high frequency devices  1  are rearranged in proximity, further, the high frequency devices  1  are connected with the still finer re-wiring layer  10 , so that multiple high frequency devices  1  can be integrated with a high density.

Further, in the semiconductor device according to the second embodiment, the high frequency device  1  has a space from the cap  2  made of a high resistance silicon and the like, and therefore, this reduce interference between the high frequency device  1  and the cap  2 , and the signal transmission can be done with a low loss, so that a high performance semiconductor module having multiple high performance high frequency devices  1  can be produced. 
     Further, with the semiconductor device according to the second embodiment, the anchoring effect is increased as compared with the first embodiment, and the bonding between the bump electrode  3  and the cap  2  can be achieved more strongly.

Further, the inventors have confirmed that a die shear strength evaluation indicates that the die shear strength has increased by twice or more as compared with a case where only the distal end portion of the protruding shape of the bump electrode  3  is pressed in. 
     As described above, like the first embodiment, in the semiconductor device according to the third embodiment, multiple high frequency devices  1  are rearranged in proximity, further, the high frequency devices  1  are connected with the still finer re-wiring layer  10 , so that multiple high frequency devices  1  can be integrated with a high density.
