Method for forming a redistribution layer in a wafer structure

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for forming a redistribution layer in a wafer structure. The method comprises: (a) providing a wafer having a plurality of conductive structures and a first passivation layer thereon, wherein the first passivation layer covers the wafer except the conductive surfaces of the conductive structures; (b) forming a second passivation layer over the first passivation layer; (c) selectively removing part of the second passivation layer to form a plurality of grooves corresponding to a predetermined circuit; (d) forming a redistribution layer in the grooves; and (e) forming a third passivation layer over the second passivation layer and the redistribution layer. As a result, the redistribution layer is “embedded” in the second passivation layer so as to avoid the delamination of the redistribution layer.
