Patent ID: 10475735

Abstract:
Methods of processing a substrate include: providing a substrate with a first polymer dielectric layer; forming a first RDL on the first polymer dielectric layer; constructing a 3D MIM capacitive stack on the first RDL in at least one opening in a top surface of a second polymer dielectric layer, the 3D MIM capacitive stack having a top electrode, a bottom electrode, and a capacitive dielectric layer interposed between the top electrode and the bottom electrode; depositing a dielectric layer on the 3D MIM capacitive stack and on the second polymer dielectric layer; and removing a portion of the dielectric layer to expose at least a portion of the top electrode at a bottom of at least one opening of the 3D MIM capacitive stack and to expose at least a portion of the metal layer at a bottom of at least one opening of the second polymer dielectric layer.
