Description

Silver soldering paste and preparation process thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of silver soldering paste, in particular to silver soldering paste and a preparation process thereof.
Background
Along with the progress of technology, new energy electric automobile and corresponding quick charging pile thereof, high-speed rail and green electric remote transportation have put forward higher and higher requirements on corresponding power modules, and a high-power device with high temperature resistance, high breakdown voltage and high current density and high switching frequency is needed. However, the conventional silicon-based chip cannot meet the requirements of the above objects due to its inherent physical and chemical properties. Researchers are looking at third generation semiconductors-wide bandgap semiconductors (e.g., siC and GaN) because they can well meet the current demands for high performance chips. However, the high temperature resistance mentioned above generally means that the chip needs to withstand an operating temperature of more than 250 ℃.
Among the current packaging connection materials, solder alloys and conductive adhesives are two commonly used semiconductor device connection materials that are often only capable of service at temperatures below the tolerance level of the semiconductor device. However, unlike most pure metals, solder alloys have relatively low electrical and thermal conductivities. Intermetallic compounds are also prone to fatigue and failure due to their formation and phase separation, which provides a place for crack initiation and growth during thermal cycling. Whereas conventional solders such as tin-lead solders often have melting points below 250 ℃, only a few solder alloys have melting points above 250 ℃, such as gold-tin eutectic solders, but at high cost. On the other hand, cured conductive adhesives have even poorer electrical and thermal conductivity than solder alloys due to higher polymer content. Chips with conventional solders as interconnect layers are typically difficult to apply to the connection of high power and high temperature semiconductor devices because of solder joint melting and failure when operating in this environment. With the commercialization of wide bandgap semiconductor devices such as chromium carbide and gallium nitride, the use of high temperature, high power electronic devices is becoming increasingly widespread. There is a need for a die bonding material that meets this high requirement and achieves stable service at high temperatures and rapid heat dissipation.
Up to now, silver paste is a relatively common material for third generation semiconductor chip package interconnections. The silver soldering layer formed after sintering the silver soldering paste has the advantages of high heat conductivity, high electric conductivity and high temperature resistance. The silver paste is prepared by first undergoing synthesis of nano silver particles, and this is a crucial step in determining the cost of the final silver paste. Generally, the synthesis of nano silver particles includes both physical and chemical methods. Physical methods, while capable of producing nano-silver particles of higher purity, involve higher equipment costs. The chemical method is to utilize oxidation-reduction reaction to reduce silver ions into silver atoms, and then nucleate to form nano silver particles. This method is widely used because of its simplicity, efficiency and low cost. In addition, the preparation of the nano silver soldering paste also comprises the selection of organic reagents such as solvents, dispersing agents, binders and the like; the regulation of the ratio between the nanoparticles and the organic reagent is relatively complex and expensive.
The solder filled with nano silver particles is therefore gradually attracting attention of researchers. The nano silver particles have very small size, the size means that the specific surface area is larger, the surface energy is higher, the melting point of the nano silver particles is not required to be reached in the sintering process, and the diffusion among atoms can be realized by utilizing the driving force caused by the reduction of the surface area, so that the effect of sintering interconnection is realized. However, in order to make the nano silver soldering paste have certain process operability, the preparation of the nano silver soldering paste also comprises the selection of organic reagents such as solvents, dispersing agents, binders and the like; and regulating the ratio of the nano particles to the organic reagent. The organic additives used in the silver paste formulation process are due to their high vaporization and decomposition temperatures. The expression of high surface activity of the nano silver particles is limited during sintering. Therefore, we propose a silver solder paste and a preparation process thereof.

Experiment
Taking chip package interconnection structure samples obtained in examples 1-5 and comparative examples 1-4, respectively detecting the performances of the chip package interconnection structure samples and recording detection results:
shear fracture test: carrying out shearing fracture test on the sample by utilizing a multifunctional micro-welding spot strength tester, wherein a shearing head is parallel to the edge of the chip, the shearing height is 20 mu m, and the shearing speed is 100 mu m/s;
high temperature resistance test: placing the sample at 300 ℃, preserving heat for 2000 hours, and carrying out shearing fracture test again;
from the data in the above table, the following conclusions can be clearly drawn:
the chip interconnection metal layers obtained in examples 1-5 are more excellent in shear strength before and after high-temperature aging, and a shear section SEM image of a packaging interconnection structure of the chip interconnection metal layers shows that the chip interconnection metal layers obtained in examples 1-5 are uniform and compact, have obvious breaking points, and form stable connection between metal layers of a sintered chip and a substrate.
The chip interconnection metal layers obtained in comparative examples 1 to 3 were subjected to a silver paste preparation process which is technically different from that of example 1; and the chip interconnect metal layer obtained in example 1 has higher shear strength before and after high temperature aging. The chip interconnect metal layers obtained in examples 4 to 5, which were different in the preparation of silver paste from examples 1 to 3, were in turn compared with examples 1 and 2; the chip interconnection metal layer obtained in comparative example 4, the preparation of which silver solder paste is technically different from that of example 4; and the chip interconnect metal layer obtained in example 4 has higher shear strength before and after high temperature aging. From the above, the silver soldering paste composition and the process thereof can promote the improvement of the strength and the high temperature resistance of the manufactured chip interconnection metal layer.
