Background technology
Along with three-dimensional packaging technology development and level of integrated system improve, be in the power device manufacturing processed of representative with large-power light-emitting diodes (LED), igbt (IGBT), laser diode (LD) etc., the preparation of heat-radiating substrate and select and become crucial sport technique segment, and directly have influence on use properties and the reliability of device.For high power LED device, the 70%-80% due to input electric power changes heat (only having about 20%-30% to be converted into luminous energy) into, and LED chip area is little, and device power density (is greater than 100W/cm very greatly
2), therefore heat radiation becomes the gordian technique that high-power LED encapsulation must solve.If can not in time chip heating be derived and be dissipated, amount of heat will be gathered in LED inside, junction temperature of chip will progressively raise, LED performance is made to reduce (as luminous efficiency reduction, red shift of wavelength etc.) on the one hand, thermal stresses will be produced in LED body on the other hand, cause a series of integrity problem (as service life reduction, colour temperature change etc.).
For power electronic device encapsulation, substrate, except possessing basic support, wiring (electrical interconnection) function, also requires to have higher heat conduction, insulation, high temperature resistant, proof voltage ability and thermal matching energy.Heat-radiating substrate conventional is at present TFC (thick film ceramic substrate), DBC (Direct Bonding ceramic substrate) and DPC (Direct Electroplating ceramic substrate).Wherein, TFC adopts silk screen printing and high-sintering process to prepare, and cost is lower, but circuit low precision (being greater than 0.2mm), and be difficult to prepare conduction copper column structure; And DBC by Copper Foil and ceramic plate at high temperature eutectic sinter and form, finally according to cabling requirement, form interconnection line with etching mode.Have interface bond strength high, electric current leads to the advantages such as loading capability is large, is applicable to very much IGBT device encapsulation requirement.But due to preparation process make use of high temperature under the eutectic reaction of (being greater than 1000 DEG C), higher to equipment and process control overflow, production cost is higher, also cannot prepare conduction copper column structure.
DPC substrate preparation technology flow process as shown in Figure 1, is characterized in the Seed Layer adopting sputter coating to electroplate as ceramic surface, adopts electroless copper as the Seed Layer of electroplating in ceramic hole.First this technique utilize laser drilling to form through hole on a ceramic substrate, then adopt sputter coating mode in ceramic substrate surface metal refining Seed Layer, then the via hole is realized with electroless plating, graphic making is completed by photoetching, developing process, increase copper layer thickness and filling perforation with plating mode, make finally by removing photoresist and corroding Seed Layer completing substrate.Because DPC preparation have employed semiconductor fabrication, there is the advantages such as technological temperature is low, circuit is meticulous, and conductive and heat-conductive copper post can be prepared on ceramic substrate, be very applicable to the high-power LED encapsulation demand that alignment precision is high, integration density is high.
As shown in Figure 2, it adopts conductive paste directly to fill ceramic endoporus to existing DPC (conductive paste filling perforation) preparation technology's flow process, is prepared by graphic plating completing substrate.
Key prepared by DPC substrate is conduction copper column preparation.General employing laser drilling forms through hole on a ceramic substrate, then adopts electro-coppering to fill, and realizes the interconnection and interflow (conduction and heat conduction) of ceramic substrate upper and lower surface.But because pottery is isolator, could realize electroplating filling perforation after hole wall must be made to conduct electricity.Technical scheme conventional at present comprises: 1) adopt magnetron sputtering technique at hole wall Direct precipitation metal.But the straight hole that, aspect ratio less for aperture is larger, cannot realize all standing of hole wall metal level, make electro-coppering structure in hole discontinuous, be difficult to realize interconnection; 2) electroless plating technology is adopted to realize the via hole, as shown in Figure 1.Shortcoming is that chemical plating technology is complicated, three-waste pollution serious (reductive agent formaldehyde is harmful to), and use is very limited; 3) conductive polymers (as conductive paste or conductive resin) directly filling vias is adopted, as Fig. 2.Shortcoming is filling small hole difficulty, need be heating and curing (sintering), and the electrical and thermal conductivity performance of weighting material is poor after filling perforation.
