Abstract— The Global Integration Initiative (GINTI) is 8/12- 2.5D/3D integration technologies into electronic industries to
inch R&D foundry fab for the research and development of new accelerate the commercialization of innovative 3D technologies
2.5D/3D integration technologies and creative applications. and applications into real, manufacturing-ready technology
GINTI offers a broad range of services to meet the mounting solutions.
R&D needs of the semiconductor industry and related industries.
GINTI provides a cost-competitive process development
infrastructure in a manufacturing-like fab environment and a
low-cost, short TAT prototyping of proof of concepts using
commercial/customized 2D chip/wafer, and a base-line process
set-up for the pilot production of creative 3D systems. GINTI
aims to provide Tohoku University`s advanced 2.5D/3D
integration technologies into electronic industries to accelerate
the commercialization of innovative 3D technologies and
applications into real, manufacturing-ready technology solutions
with FAST. This paper introduces advanced 2.5D/3D hetero-
integration technologies developed by GINTI/Tohoku University.

TECHNOLOGIES filled with Cu by electroplating after the formation of barrier
and sees metal layers. Re-distribution layer (RDL) is formed on
the backside. Then metal bumps are formed on the RDL by
(A) TSV (through-silicon via) formation technology electroplating process. Finally, the support wafer is de-bonded
from the thinned LSI wafer.
TSV formation is a key technology for the 3D-IC
fabrication, because TSV is an important factor to determine
3D-IC performance. We have developed a couple of TSV
