Description

Production device for ultra-thin copper foil with carrier
Technical Field
The utility model belongs to an extremely thin copper foil technical field especially relates to an attach apparatus for producing of carrier ultra-thin copper foil.
Background
In recent years, the electronic product industry has been developed rapidly, and the whole product has become thinner and thinner on the basis of more and more complete functions, wherein the integrated circuit board manufacturing technology is undergoing rapid update iteration. Conventional methods for fabricating integrated circuit boards have become increasingly difficult to adapt to the circuit fabrication requirements of smaller line widths and pitches, and thus improved semi-additive methods (msaps) have come into force. An extra thin copper foil (a copper foil with the thickness less than 5 mu m) is needed in the mSAP process to achieve the purpose of line flash etching, but the extra thin copper foil is complex in preparation method and low in product quality stability, so that the extra thin copper foil is a great challenge in the development process of the current integrated circuit industry.
The extra thin copper foil with a carrier is a current research focus because of its extra thin thickness and tensile strength, which makes it difficult to perform surface treatment by existing surface treatment equipment. The ultra-thin copper foil with the carrier mainly comprises a carrier layer which plays a role of physical support, a barrier layer which prevents mutual diffusion of functional layers, a stripping layer which realizes the function of film separation and an ultra-thin copper layer, wherein the stripping layer is the key in the whole manufacturing process of the ultra-thin copper foil with the carrier. The materials commonly used as the stripping layer at present are divided into two main types of metal and nonmetal: the metal stripping layer material comprises a simple substance or an alloy of Ni/Mo/Co/Cr/Fe/Ti/W/Zn, and the preparation method comprises electroplating, chemical plating, magnetron sputtering and physical evaporation; the nonmetal stripping layer material comprises carbon, carboxylic acid micromolecules, imidazole micromolecules and a mixture thereof, and the preparation method comprises the modes of dipping, spraying, coating and the like. However, the existing process methods have some problems, which cause a series of problems of low controllability of mass production of products, uneven product quality, low qualification rate and the like. For example, when a metal or alloy is electroplated as a peeling layer, the magnitude of the peeling force is greatly influenced by the metal components and the interface state, and the feasibility window interval is small, so that continuous and stable production can be realized only by matching with a severe process control system. The metal stripping layer prepared by the vacuum coating method can improve the continuity and uniformity of a film layer, but sputtered metal often has strong binding force, particularly after the ultrathin copper foil passes through a high-temperature pressing plate, the binding force of the stripping layer is large, and local adhesion is easy to occur when the surface roughness of a carrier substrate is large, so that the requirement on the surface profile of the carrier foil is high, and the production difficulty is increased. When the nonmetal material is prepared by adopting methods such as dipping, coating and the like to be used as the stripping layer, the stripping effect is good, but the stripping layer is usually discontinuous and uneven, or the problem that local electroplating cannot be carried out during electroplating thickening and the like often occurs, so that the problems of local adhesion and a large number of pinholes in the ultrathin copper foil are easy to occur.
On one hand, the vacuum coating method has the characteristics of continuous film layer, uniform thickness and the like, and particularly, a copper seed layer is sputtered on the surface of the stripping layer, so that the problem of pinholes in subsequent electroplating thickening can be greatly reduced. On the other hand, some organic small molecules can provide controllable peeling strength, but the film forming uniformity is poor, and the continuity of production and the stability of product quality are greatly reduced. Therefore, it is the biggest challenge in the manufacture of carrier copper foil to develop a new release layer with stable release capability and better continuity.

Analysis of results
No. Stripping process Surface condition of extra thin copper foil after peeling
Example 1 Easy to peel off The surface copper foil has uniform color and no glue seepage spots
Example 2 Easy to peel off The surface copper foil has uniform color and no glue seepage spots
Example 3 Easy to peel off The surface copper foil has uniform color and no glue seepage spots
Comparative example 1 Difficult to peel off and local adhesion Inconsistent surface color, local grey spots and pores due to adhesion
Comparative example 2 Is very easy to peel off The surface color is uniform, but the part is slightly adhered and the holes caused by adhesion
Comparative example 3 Difficult to peel off and local adhesion Uneven surface color, more glue-permeating spots and adhesive pores
The experimental result shows that the stripping layer prepared by the method can realize better stripping of the carrier layer, and the ultrathin copper foil is dense and continuous and has no pinholes. In comparative example 1, small organic molecules were not deposited, and the release layer was metallic cobalt, which was hard to release because of its strong bonding force with the barrier metal nickel and the seed copper layer. In the comparative example 2, only small-molecule dimethylimidazole is evaporated, and a more stable complex is not formed, so that wrinkles, falling and cracking are easy to occur in the electroplating thickening and surface treatment processes, and local adhesion is caused due to instability and poor continuity of a film after a seed copper layer is sputtered. In comparative example 3, no seed copper layer was sputtered, and dimethylimidazolium cobalt as a peeling layer was easily broken in a solution during the thickening by electroplating, thereby causing non-uniform peeling force and partial adhesion, and the thickened copper layer by electroplating was not dense and had many pinholes.
To sum up: the method prepares a stable stripping layer by simultaneously evaporating metal and easily complexing micromolecules, and then prepares the seed copper layer by sputtering, thereby ensuring the stability of subsequent electroplating and the compactness of the copper layer and realizing the stable mass production of the carrier-attached ultrathin copper foil.
