Description

Laser direct writing-based flexible circuit board semi-additive preparation process
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of emerging electronics, in particular to a laser direct writing-based flexible circuit board semi-additive preparation process.
Background
Flexible electronics is a new electronic technology for fabricating organic/inorganic electronic components on flexible/ductile plastic or thin metal substrates, and is widely used in the fields of aerospace, consumer electronics, medical electronics, and the like, due to its unique flexibility/ductility characteristics. Flexible circuits (FPCs) using flexible polymers as substrates and conductive materials such as metal films, graphene, conductive inks, liquid metals, etc. as conductors are key components of the development of flexible electronics. The FPC meets the development requirements of high density, miniaturization, lightness and thinness and high reliability of electronic products due to its excellent physical properties (flexibility, lightness and thinness, and excellent electrical properties), and in recent years, the FPC has been highlighted by the military and has an increasingly expanded specific gravity, and thus becomes one of the core power for the global PCB industry growth.
At present, FPC mainly has three manufacturing processes of a subtractive method, a full addition method and a semi-addition method. The subtractive process is a process of forming a circuit by printing a pattern on a circuit board, protecting the pattern, and etching off an excess copper layer without a resist film to remove the copper layer. The subtractive process is mature, stable and reliable, but when the subtractive process is used for manufacturing circuits, the line width and line spacing of 50 μm/50 μm or less has basically reached the maximum capability (prediction of an elliptic model) that the subtractive process can reach, and the factors bring great difficulty to the fine pattern, yield improvement and impedance control of the printed circuit board along with more serious circuit side etching. In addition, the reduction method has low utilization rate of raw materials (less than 5%), serious environmental pollution, complicated process steps and great limitations in the aspects of refinement, individuation and batch production. The full-addition method is suitable for manufacturing ultra-fine lines (the line width and the line distance are more than 40 mu m/40 mu m), and is characterized by short process flow, simple processing and low cost due to no use of copper foil, and good dispersion capability of a plating layer due to the adoption of chemical copper deposition, so the method is also suitable for the production of multilayer boards and small-aperture high-density boards, but the manufacturing cost is high, the current process is immature, and the reliability level needs to be further improved.

In order to solve the technical problem, the invention provides a laser direct writing-based flexible circuit board semi-additive preparation process, which comprises the following steps of:
step 1, ultrasonically cleaning polyimide by using absolute ethyl alcohol, then placing the polyimide into a constant-temperature water bath kettle at 55-65 ℃ for alkali treatment, namely performing surface treatment, wherein the use time is 10-20 min, and drying for later use;
step 2, dissolving organic copper salt in organic solvent of alkylamine and alcohol, and uniformly stirring by using a magnetic stirrer to obtain blue honey-like precursor solution;
step 3, coating the precursor solution prepared in the step 2 on the surface of the polyimide subjected to surface treatment in the step 1 in a spin coating mode, putting the spin-coated polyimide into a drying oven for drying, and obtaining a compact precursor film after organic matters are completely volatilized;
step 4, selecting a 355nm ultraviolet pulse laser to directly write the sample in the step 3, washing the redundant part with deionized water, and obtaining a conductive pattern in any shape on the surface of the polyimide;
step 5, coating a layer of photosensitive resist on the surface of the polyimide after the laser direct writing, and carrying out photoetching development;
and 6, electroplating the sample prepared in the step 5, and growing a copper layer along the plumbum surface of the photosensitive glue in an electroplating mode to obtain the copper layer with uniform thickness so as to prepare the flexible circuit board.

By applying the photoetching development technology and repeating the circuit pattern, the copper layer can grow along the vertical plane in the subsequent electroplating process, the edges of the copper wire are ensured to be neat and have no burrs, and the refinement of the flexible circuit is improved. The invention belongs to an improved semi-additive method, base copper is obtained by adopting a laser direct writing technology, any conductive pattern can be obtained by controlling the movement track of laser, and the method has high flexibility. Meanwhile, the thickness of the film is adjusted to obtain base copper with different thicknesses.
