Abstract
A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes the steps of first forming an aluminum (Al) pad on a substrate, forming a passivation layer on the substrate and an opening exposing the Al pad, forming a cobalt (Co) layer in the opening and on the Al pad, bonding a wire onto the Co layer, and then performing a thermal treatment process to form a Co—Pd alloy on the Al pad.
Claims5
A method for fabricating a semiconductor device, comprising:
- forming an aluminum (Al) pad on a substrate;
- forming a cobalt (Co) layer on the Al pad;
- bonding a wire onto the Co layer, wherein the wire comprises a copper (Cu) wire and a palladium (Pd) layer coated on the Cu wire;
- and
- performing a thermal treatment process to form a Co—Pd alloy on the Al pad and divide the Co layer into a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion.
