Abstract
In one example, a method for redistribution layer (RDL) process is described. A substrate is provided. A dielectric layer is deposited on top of the substrate. The dielectric layer is patterned. A barrier and copper seed layer are deposited on top of the dielectric layer. A photoresist layer is applied on top of the barrier and copper seed layer. The photoresist layer is patterned to correspond with the dielectric layer pattern. Copper is electrodepositing in the patterned regions exposed by the photoresist layer. The photoresist layer is removed. The copper and seed barrier are etched.
