Bei dem in 1 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird ein Substrat 10 in Gestalt eines Flachteils mit einer Flachseite 20 herangezogen, welche eine Kontaktfläche 30 aufweist. Die Kontaktfläche 30 ist mittels eines Durchkontakts 40 an weitere Bauteile angebunden. Das Substrat 10 mit der Kontaktfläche 30 bildet einen Teil eines erfindungsgemäßen Leistungsmoduls 50.At the in 1 illustrated embodiment of the method according to the invention is a substrate 10 in the form of a flat part with a flat side 20 used, which is a contact surface 30 having. The contact surface 30 is by means of a through contact 40 connected to other components. The substrate 10 with the contact surface 30 forms part of a power module according to the invention 50 ,

Diese Kontaktfläche 30 an der Flachseite 20 des Substrats 10 des Leistungsmoduls 50 wird in einem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens mittels eines Metallknäuels 160 an weitere Bestandteile des Leistungsmoduls 50, etwa an Leistungsbauteile des Leistungsmoduls 50, elektrisch kontaktiert. Dazu wird Metall, im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel Molybdän, mittels einer Düse 55 auf die Kontaktfläche 30 an der Flachseite 20 des Substrats 10 als Knäuel 160 abgeschieden, wonach das Knäuel 160 auf der Kontaktfläche 30 weiter erkaltet. Das Knäuel 160 stellt ein offenporiges, offenzelliges Material dar, welches eine elektrische Kontaktschicht bildet. Das Material Molybdän kommt im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel aufgrund des geringen thermischen Ausdehnungskoeffizenten zum Einsatz.This contact surface 30 on the flat side 20 of the substrate 10 of the power module 50 is in a first embodiment of the method according to the invention by means of a metal ball 160 to other components of the power module 50 , for example on power components of the power module 50 , electrically contacted. For this purpose, metal, molybdenum in the illustrated embodiment, by means of a nozzle 55 on the contact surface 30 on the flat side 20 of the substrate 10 as a ball of yarn 160 separated, after which the ball 160 on the contact surface 30 further cooled. The ball 160 represents an open-pore, open-cell material which forms an electrical contact layer. The material molybdenum is used in the illustrated embodiment due to the low thermal expansion coefficient.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird die Düse 55 zweidimensional in einer zur Kontaktfläche 30 parallelen Ebene über der Kontaktfläche 30 verfahren. Mittels der Verfahrgeschwindigkeit und der Abscheiderate kann die Offenzelligkeit, d.h. die Größe der durch dieses Knäuel 160 hindurch führenden Kanäle, über einen weiten Parameterbereich eingestellt werden und auf den jeweils konkreten Anwendungsfall hinsichtlich Stromtragfähigkeit, Elastizität, Masse, Größe und Kosten der so gebildeten Kontaktschicht geeignet eingestellt werden. In weiteren, nicht eigens dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen kann der Draht anstelle oder zusätzlich zu Molybdän mit Kupfer und/oder Gold und/oder Aluminium und/oder Nickel gebildet sein. Zweckmäßig wird dabei die Düse 55 derart verfahren, dass das Knäuel 160 ein ebenes Plateau aufweist, welches an eine Kontaktfläche eines weiteren Bestandteils des erfindungsgemäßen Leistungsmoduls flächig kontaktierbar ist. Es ist alternativ oder zusätzlich denkbar, eines oder mehrere Bauelemente auf das Knäuel 160 zu setzen und mittels Galvanisierens das oder die Bauelemente mit dem Knäuel 160 elektrisch zu verbinden. Entsprechend kann auch bei dem offenporigen Material (d.h. Knäuel, Gewebe, Metallschaum aus Schaumbröseln) Dies gilt ebenso für das offenporige Material und alle folgenden dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele.In the method according to the invention, the nozzle becomes 55 two-dimensional in one to the contact surface 30 parallel plane above the contact surface 30 method. By means of the traversing speed and the deposition rate, the open-celledness, ie the size of the ball through this ball 160 leading channels, be adjusted over a wide range of parameters and adjusted to the specific application in terms of current carrying capacity, elasticity, mass, size and cost of the contact layer thus formed suitable. In further, not specifically illustrated embodiments, the wire may be formed instead of or in addition to molybdenum with copper and / or gold and / or aluminum and / or nickel. Appropriately, the nozzle 55 is moved so that the ball 160 has a flat plateau, which is contactable surface to a contact surface of another component of the power module according to the invention. It is alternatively or additionally conceivable, one or more components on the ball 160 to set and by galvanizing the one or more components with the ball 160 electrically connect. Accordingly, also in the case of the open-pore material (ie, ball, fabric, metal foam made of foam crumbs), this also applies to the open-pored material and to all embodiments shown below.

Im in 2 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel wird vergleichbar dem anhand von 1 erläuterten Verfahren vorgegangen. Im Unterscheid zum Verfahren gem. 1 wird allerdings nicht ein Knäuel mittels der Düse 55 erzeugt, sondern mittels der Düse 55 wird ein mit Kupfer gebildetes Gewebe oder Draht 260, im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel ein Kupfernetz, auf der Kontaktfläche abgeschieden. Dabei wird die Düse 55 derart hin- und her bewegt, dass das Kupfernetz gefaltet wird, sodass nach jeder Faltung eine neue Lage des Kupfernetzes auf die bisherigen Lagen abgeschieden wird. Auch auf diese Weise wird mittels des gefalteten Gewebes oder Drahts 260 eine Kontaktschicht offenporigen und offenzelligen Materials gebildet. Wie in dem zuvor beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel ist das Gewebe oder der Draht 260 mit Kupfer gebildet, in weiteren nicht eigens dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen kann das Gewebe oder der Draht 260 mit oder aus Gold und/oder Molybdän und/oder weiteren Materialien, insbesondere Metallen, gebildet sein.Im in 2 illustrated embodiment is comparable to the basis of 1 proceeded explained procedure. In the difference to the procedure gem. 1 but not a ball by means of the nozzle 55 generated, but by means of the nozzle 55 becomes a fabric or wire formed with copper 260 , In the embodiment shown, a copper network, deposited on the contact surface. In this case, the nozzle 55 is moved back and forth so that the copper network is folded so that after each folding a new position of the copper network is deposited on the previous layers. Also in this way is by means of the folded fabric or wire 260 a contact layer open-pore and open-cell material formed. As in the previously described embodiment, the fabric or wire is 260 formed with copper, in other non-specifically illustrated embodiments, the fabric or wire 260 be formed with or from gold and / or molybdenum and / or other materials, in particular metals.

Im in 3 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel wird ein Metallschaum auf die Kontaktfläche 30 aufgedruckt. Dazu wird mittels der Düse 55 ein heterogenes Gemisch aus einer Trägerflüssigkeit 355 mit darin befindlichen Schaumbröseln 360 auf die Kontaktfläche 30 aufgebracht. Diese Schaumbrösel 360 entstammen dabei aus zuvor bereitgestelltem Metallschaum, im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ein Kupferschwamm, welcher zu einem Granulat geeigneter Körnigkeit, d.h. den Schaumbröseln 360, geraspelt ist. Die Schaumbrösel 360 werden dann mit Trägerflüssigkeit 355 vermengt und zur Düse 55 geführt, welche die Trägerflüssigkeit 355 und die Schaumbrösel 360 gemeinsam auf die Kontaktfläche 30 ausbringt.Im in 3 illustrated embodiment, a metal foam on the contact surface 30 printed. This is done by means of the nozzle 55 a heterogeneous mixture of a carrier liquid 355 with foam crumbs inside 360 on the contact surface 30 applied. These foam crumbs 360 come from previously provided metal foam, in the illustrated embodiment, a copper sponge, which granules to a suitable granularity, ie the foam crumbs 360 , is rasped. The foam crumbs 360 then be with carrier liquid 355 mixed and to the nozzle 55 guided, which the carrier liquid 355 and the foam crumbs 360 together on the contact surface 30 comprises applying.

Nachdem das heterogene Gemisch auf die Kontaktfläche 30 aufgebracht ist, evaporiert die Trägerflüssigkeit 355. Im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel unterstützt eine Zufuhr von Wärme 420 mittels einer Heizung (nicht gezeigt) das Evaporieren der Trägerflüssigkeit 355. Somit verbleiben nach einer Zeitspanne lediglich die Schaumbrösel 360 abgeschieden auf der Kontaktfläche 30, sodass die Schaumbrösel 360 wieder zu einem Metallschaum zusammengebracht sind. Auf diese Weise ist mittels der Schaumbrösel 360 eine Schicht offenporigen und offenzelligen Materials gebildet, welche eine Kontaktschicht zur elektrischen Kontaktierung der Kontaktfläche 30 bildet.After the heterogeneous mixture on the contact surface 30 is applied, the carrier liquid evaporates 355 , In the illustrated embodiment, supply of heat 420 by means of a heater (not shown) assists in evaporating the carrier liquid 355 , Thus remain after a period of time only the foam crumbs 360 deposited on the contact surface 30 so that the foam crumbs 360 are brought together again to a metal foam. In this way is by means of the foam crumb 360 a layer of open-pored and open-cell material is formed, which has a contact layer for making electrical contact with the contact surface 30 forms.

In sämtlichen gezeigten Ausführungsbeispielen kann bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren anschließend das offenporige Material an die Kontaktfläche 30 zusätzlich elektrisch leitend und stoffschlüssig angebunden werden, insbesondere mittels elektrochemischen oder außenstromfreien Galvanisierens.In all the exemplary embodiments shown, the open-pored material can then be applied to the contact surface in the method according to the invention 30 additionally be connected electrically conductive and cohesive, in particular by means of electrochemical or electroless plating.

Alternativ zu den oben anhand der Zeichnung erläuterten Ausführungsbeispielen kann die Kontaktschicht offenporigen Materials auch mit einer hohen räumlich-strukturellen Ordnung gebildet werden. Im einfachsten Falle lässt sich eine solche Schicht mit Kupfer-Nagel-Köpfen zusammensetzen, welche geordnet auf der Kontaktfläche 30 auf- oder eingebracht werden.As an alternative to the exemplary embodiments explained above with reference to the drawing, the contact layer of open-pored material can also be formed with a high spatial-structural order. In the simplest case, such a layer can be assembled with copper nail heads, which are arranged on the contact surface 30 be introduced or introduced.

Weiterhin alternativ lässt sich eine Schaum- oder Gitterartige Struktur mittels 3D-Drucks auf der Kontaktfläche 30 anordnen. Ebenso ist die subtraktive Erzeugung von offenporigen Strukturen denkbar. Hierbei wird z.B. bei einem 2-StoffMaterial eine Komponente über Temperatur, Lösungsmittel, etc. herausgelöst. Desweiteren kann eine über Temperatureintrag eine offenporige Struktur erzeugt werden (Laserablation).Furthermore, alternatively, a foam or lattice-like structure by means of 3D printing on the contact surface 30 Arrange. Similarly, the subtractive generation of open-pored structures is conceivable. Here, for example, in the case of a 2-substance material, a component is dissolved out via temperature, solvent, etc. Furthermore, it is possible to generate an open-pore structure via the introduction of temperature (laser ablation).

Weiterhin kann eine geordnete/gerichtete Anordnung von abgeflammten Kupfer-Drahtbonds zur Kontaktierung vorgesehen werden.Furthermore, an ordered / directed arrangement of flamed copper wire bonds can be provided for contacting.
