Interposer and semiconductor package including same

Provided is an interposer for a semiconductor package, the interposer including an interposer substrate comprising a first main surface and a second main surface opposite to the first main surface, a first through-electrode structure and a second through-electrode structure each passing through the interposer substrate and protruding from the first main surface, a connection terminal structure contacting both the first through-electrode structure and the second through-electrode structure, and a photosensitive polymer layer arranged between the connection terminal structure and the interposer substrate, and between the first through-electrode structure and the second through-electrode structure.

Interposer, semiconductor package including the same, and method of fabricating the interposer

An interposer includes a base layer including a first surface and a second surface that are opposite to each other. An interconnect structure is disposed on the first surface. The interconnect structure includes a metal interconnect pattern and an insulating layer surrounding the metal interconnect pattern. A first lower protection layer is disposed on the second surface. A plurality of lower conductive pads is disposed on the first lower protection layer. A plurality of through electrodes penetrates the base layer and the first lower protection layer. The plurality of through electrodes electrically connects the metal interconnect pattern of the interconnect structure to the lower conductive pads. At least one of the insulating layer and the first lower protection layer has compressive stress. A thickness of the first lower protection layer is in a range of about 13% to about 30% of a thickness of the insulating layer.

Interposer and semiconductor package including the same
