Abstract
Implementations described herein generally relate to chip packaging, and in particular, to solder bump structures for a semiconductor device and methods of fabricating the same. In one implementation, a solder bump assembly is provided. The solder bump assembly comprises a conductive bond pad formed on a substrate. A conductive pillar is formed on the conductive bond pad. A plating layer is formed on the conductive pillar, wherein the plating layer comprises copper and nickel. A solder bump is formed on the plating layer in electrical communication with the plating layer. The plating layer may be a bi-layer structure comprising a nickel layer formed on the conductive pillar and a copper layer formed on the nickel layer in electrical communication with the solder bump. The plating layer may be a copper-nickel alloy.
