Description

Pretreatment method for cutting irregular semiconductor crystal
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of irregular polycrystalline crystal processing, and particularly relates to a pretreatment method for cutting an irregular semiconductor crystal.
Background
During the crystal growth process, irregular polycrystalline ingots are inevitably grown, and although polycrystals have no high use value, the exploration of the growth mechanism is still crucial, because the single crystal can be better grown only by knowing the source of polycrystals. In order to explore the polycrystal more deeply, the polycrystal is required to be cut, and because a large number of grain boundaries exist in the polycrystal and the bonding force at the grain boundaries is weak, if the polycrystal is directly cut, crystals are easily broken along the grain boundaries and even broken into crystal slag, so that the crystal slag is difficult to collect and study, the cutting process is very important and difficult for ensuring the integrity of the polycrystal ingot. At present, the most effective method for protecting the integrity of the crystal is to wrap and encapsulate the polycrystal by adopting a high-strength adhesive in a mold to form a more regular shape, and then cut the encapsulated crystal. The firm wrapping layer is formed outside the crystal by the high-strength adhesive, and when the wrapped crystal is cut, the wrapping layer applies inward-extruded adhesive force to the crystal, so that the cut wafer is prevented from being broken. However, the high-strength adhesive also has strong adhesion with the mold, so that the demolding process becomes quite difficult. In order to solve the problem of too great difficulty in complete demolding, a method of cutting with a mold is generally adopted, but the Mohs hardness of the mold is generally larger than 5, and a hard material can have serious irreversible influence on a cutting line and even easily cause a line breaking condition, so demolding and cutting are particularly critical to crystal processing.
Therefore, how to demold the crystal more conveniently and simply and under the condition of ensuring the integrity of the adhesive-encapsulated crystal becomes a problem to be solved urgently in crystal cutting.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, and that such changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
Example 1:
a pretreatment method for cutting an aluminum nitride cylindrical crystal ingot adopts a detachable mold as shown in figure 1, and comprises a cylindrical side wall and a bottom plate, wherein the cylindrical side wall is vertically arranged on the bottom plate, the side wall is divided into two parts along the vertical direction, the side wall of the mold is connected with the bottom plate by paraffin, a sealed space is ensured to be formed inside, the mold is not leaked after being poured, and the bottom plate is easy to detach after the mold is heated.
The bottom plate is an iron sheet with the bottom edge size larger than the diameter of the bottom of the cylindrical side wall.
The method specifically comprises the following steps:
s1, heating the side wall of the aluminum alloy cylindrical mold in the figure 1, and after the side wall is heated to 120 ℃, coating paraffin on the inner surface of the side wall of the mold by using a paraffin rod to ensure that paraffin is buffered between the inner wall of the mold and a subsequent adhesive layer; tightly binding the side wall of the mould by using a binding belt, and sealing;
and then heating the iron sheet serving as the bottom plate to 100 ℃, fully coating paraffin on the upper surface of the iron sheet, and adhering the tightly bound side wall of the aluminum alloy cylindrical mold to the iron sheet to obtain the complete mold.
S2, placing an aluminum nitride polycrystalline ingot on the iron sheet, ensuring that the aluminum nitride polycrystalline ingot is in the center of a mold, after the aluminum nitride polycrystalline ingot is cooled to room temperature, forming a sealed space inside the mold, fixing a crystal ingot, and then pouring AB glue (the main component is modified polyacrylate) serving as an encapsulating material into the mold; and standing for 30-40 minutes until the packaging material is fully wrapped with the crystal, and solidifying. After the AB glue is solidified, the ingot is completely wrapped, so that the problem that the cutting ingot is broken and the slag is removed can be solved.
And S3, heating the die to 120 ℃, preserving heat for 15 minutes, and demolding. After heating and heat preservation, paraffin between the modified polyacrylate layer solidified inside and the mould is found to be molten, and then the aluminum nitride polycrystalline ingot wrapped by the modified polyacrylate layer can be completely demoulded easily.
And S4, as shown in figure 4, gluing the aluminum nitride polycrystalline ingot after the casting mold on a graphite block by using AB, and then gluing the graphite block on a material plate to perform the next cutting process, wherein the used multi-wire cutting machine is a crystal jade YBDX160S diamond multi-wire cutting machine.
In the embodiment, the heat-resistant temperature of the AB adhesive is 200-300 ℃, the AB adhesive has good fluidity initially, so that the AB adhesive can completely wrap crystals conveniently, and the bonding strength of the AB adhesive is greater than 15MPa after mixing. The method for assisting demolding by using the paraffin buffer layer is used in the embodiment, the paraffin protective layer is uniformly coated on the inner wall of the mold in contact with the high-strength adhesive, and paraffin is melted into a liquid state through heating, so that the mold is isolated from the high-strength adhesive, and the paraffin plays a role in facilitating demolding. Fig. 2 is a picture of the interior of the mold after demolding. Fig. 3 is a picture of a demoulded ingot after a paraffin buffer layer is adopted, and fig. 4 is a picture of fixedly cutting an aluminum nitride ingot after glue pouring and demoulding. FIG. 5 is a photograph of a sliced aluminum nitride wafer.
Example 2:
a pretreatment method for cutting a gallium nitride ingot, comprising the steps of:
step S1 is the same as step S1 of the embodiment.
S2, placing the gallium nitride polycrystal ingot on an iron sheet to ensure that the gallium nitride polycrystal ingot is in the center of the mold, after cooling to room temperature, forming a sealed space inside the mold, fixing the ingot, and pouring an AB glue (the main component is modified polyacrylate) serving as a packaging material into the mold; and standing for 30-40 minutes until the packaging material is fully wrapped with the crystal, and solidifying. Because the gallium nitride is thin, a plurality of pieces of gallium nitride are adopted for simultaneous encapsulation when the adhesive is wrapped, and the cutting efficiency and precision can be ensured.
And S3, heating the mould to 120 ℃, preserving heat for 5 minutes, demoulding, finding that paraffin between the modified polyacrylate layer solidified inside and the mould is molten after heating and heat preservation, and then completely demoulding the gallium nitride crystal wrapped by the modified polyacrylate layer easily.
And S4, gluing the gallium nitride crystal after the casting mold on a graphite block by using AB glue, and gluing the graphite block on a material plate to perform the next cutting process, wherein the used multi-wire cutting machine is a crystal jade YBDX160S diamond multi-wire cutting machine.
Comparative example 1:
a pretreatment method for cutting an aluminum nitride cylindrical ingot, comprising the steps of:
steps S1 and S2 are the same as steps S1 and S2 in example 1.
And S3, adopting a heating method during demolding, heating the mold to 180 ℃ in the comparative example because the AB glue loses the bonding strength at the temperature of more than 200 ℃, and separating the mold from the glue layer by using a cutter after the mold is heated to the high temperature for 30 minutes.
And S4, gluing the aluminum nitride polycrystalline ingot after the casting mold on a graphite block by using AB glue, gluing the graphite block on a material plate, and carrying out the next cutting process, wherein the used multi-wire cutting machine is a crystal jade YBDX160S diamond multi-wire cutting machine.
Fig. 6 is a picture of the inside of the mold after demolding in the comparative example, and it can be seen that the adhesive layer is basically completely stuck to the mold, the adhesive layer is extremely difficult to completely peel off from the mold, and the adhesive layer is partially softened after heating, so that the shape is extremely irregular, and great additional difficulty is generated in subsequent cutting.
Fig. 7 is a picture of an ingot obtained by the mold release without using the paraffin buffer layer in the comparative example, and the upper part is a graphite block, and it is apparent from the figure that the ingot with rubber obtained by the mold release without using the paraffin buffer layer is extremely irregular in shape, and the surface is formed with many rugged regions whose presence is extremely disadvantageous for cutting, and when the tension of the wire is applied to these portions, the state of cutting becomes uneven, increasing the cutting error. Meanwhile, when a sample with an irregular shape is cut, the leather can easily fall off, the influence of the leather on the cutting process is great, the falling leather is clamped into the roller and then is easily broken, and the roller can also be irreversibly damaged. As can be seen by comparing with the figure 3, the ingot demolded by the method provided by the invention has regular shape and complete structure, can reduce falling off of the material skin and is convenient for subsequent cutting.
FIG. 8 is a photograph of a fixed cut of an aluminum nitride ingot after releasing the potting adhesive in this comparative example.
Fig. 9 is a cut picture of the ingot obtained in the comparative example after demolding without using a paraffin buffer layer, and it can be seen that the aluminum nitride wafer inside is intact, but the shape of the cut aluminum nitride ingot in fig. 5 is more regular, so that the polycrystalline crystal inside can be better protected from cracking, and the formation of cracks during cutting can be reduced.
