Description

Preparation method of semiconductor wafer with heat dissipation diamond substrate
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor wafers, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a semiconductor wafer with a heat dissipation diamond substrate.
Background
The semiconductor material refers to a material having conductivity between that of a conductor and an insulator at normal temperature. The semiconductor chip made of semiconductor material has wide application in the fields of integrated circuit, consumer electronics, communication system, photovoltaic power generation, illumination, etc. For example, electronic products such as mobile phones, televisions, computers, etc. which are common in our daily lives are not separated from semiconductor materials. Semiconductor wafers refer to circular thin sheets of semiconductor material that are commonly used to fabricate semiconductor chips such as integrated circuits. The semiconductor wafer substrate is a part of a semiconductor wafer and is a support plate of the semiconductor wafer.
Semiconductor chips generate a lot of heat during operation, which can cause the temperature of the device to rise, and when the temperature is too high, the operating characteristics of the device can be affected, or even disabled. Therefore, heat dissipation issues must be considered in circuit design. Although semiconductor chips are small in size, they are powerful due to the operation of billions of micro-transistors within the chip. Each micro-transistor can be regarded as a micro-switch that performs a logic operation by controlling the flow of current. Each time these switches are turned on or off, a portion of the electrical energy is converted to thermal energy. Since a large number of transistors are present in the chip, this heat can rapidly accumulate, producing a large amount of heat. If this heat is not dissipated effectively, the chip will overheat, resulting in reduced performance and even damage to the chip. Therefore, efficient chip heat dissipation is very important. As the performance of the chip becomes more and more powerful, the heat dissipation requirement of the chip is also higher and higher. In particular to a GPU chip for artificial intelligent mass operation, a high-current and high-power electric automobile power semiconductor chip and a high-power semiconductor laser chip, which have higher and higher heat dissipation requirements. In addition to being able to withstand various processes such as heating, cooling, etching, and machining during the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices, semiconductor wafer substrates are particularly required to have high heat conductivity, thereby improving the heat dissipation capability of semiconductor chips.
