Through Glass Via (TGV) technology, which uses quartz glass instead of silicon material, can make up for the shortcomings of TSV and is an ideal three-dimensional integration solution. In recent years, in order to promote the application of TGV technology in chips and other fields. Schott of Germany and LPKF of the United States have successively reported the preparation technology of large-area glass microhole arrays. As shown in the figure, on quartz glass with a thickness of 0.5mm, the diameter of the micropores can range from 30μm to several millimeters. This technology can not only process circular straight holes, but can also prepare round funnel holes and square holes. In addition, LPKF claims that the processing efficiency of micro holes can reach 3000-5000 per second, which can fully meet the needs of industrial mass production.
