Description

Preparation method of high-thermal-conductivity SiC-AlN composite ceramic
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of advanced ceramic preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation method of high-thermal-conductivity SiC-AlN composite ceramic.
Background
With the development of electronic products, especially consumer electronic products and high-power LEDs, the circuit integration level is higher and higher, and the problem of overheating of electronic devices is more and more serious. In most electronic products, an insulating medium is often used before the substrate and the circuit layer, and the insulating medium is mostly organic materials and metal oxides, which have quite low thermal conductivity. Excessive heat buildup can cause substrate deformation and reduce the lifetime of the electronic device. In general, the use of a substrate material with good heat dissipation property is the first choice to solve the problem of heat accumulation, and therefore, how to improve the heat conductivity of the substrate material is the focus of current research.
In recent years, ceramic substrate materials have become one of the best choices for high-power integrated circuit substrates due to their outstanding thermal conductivity compared to other substrate materials. Among the ceramic materials, beryllium oxide (BeO), aluminum oxide (Al) are commonly used as substrates2O3) Aluminum nitride (AlN), silicon carbide (SiC), and the like. Among them, BeO has good comprehensive performance and high heat dissipation, but its use range is limited due to toxicity. Al (Al)2O3Low cost, but thermal conductivityThe ratio is relatively poor, and is only about 30W/m.K. AlN ceramics and SiC ceramics are important advanced ceramic materials. Phase contrast Al2O3AlN has more excellent thermal conductivity, good insulation property and low dielectric constant, and is suitable for high-power circuits. In addition, SiC has the characteristics of high thermal conductivity, high hardness, good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, excellent thermal shock resistance, low thermal expansion coefficient and the like.
However, SiC ceramics and AlN ceramics also have some disadvantages in terms of preparation and performance. The SiC has stronger covalent bond, so that the sintering temperature of the ceramic is high and the ceramic is difficult to compact; AlN raw material is expensive, so the preparation cost of the ceramic is high, and hydrolysis reaction is easy to occur. The SiC-AlN composite ceramic can make up the defects of the two materials independently and keep the original excellent characteristics. Particularly, the composite ceramic product has high density and better mechanical properties such as bending strength and the like due to the similar density and thermal expansion coefficient of the composite ceramic product.
However, compared to the theoretical thermal conductivity of AlN and SiC ceramics, the thermal conductivity of SiC-AlN composite ceramic materials currently prepared is generally lower. Such as: D.H.A. Besisa et al [ Densitification and characterization of SiC-AlN composites for solar Energy applications, D.H.A. Besisa, E.M.EWAIS.Y.M.Z.Ahmed, Recewable Energy 129(2018)201 and 213], the thermal conductivity of the SiC-AlN composite ceramics prepared under different atmospheres is only 51W/m.K at most; gu et al [ Thermal conductivity and high-frequency dielectric properties of compressed SiC-AlN multiphasic ceramics, J.L.Gu, L.L.Sangg, B.Pan, materials.11(2018)969] adopt a pressureless sintering mode, and the obtained SiC-AlN composite ceramic has the highest Thermal conductivity of only 61W/m.K. In conclusion, how to further improve the thermal conductivity of the material is a problem to be solved urgently in the industrial application of the SiC-AlN composite ceramic.
