【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、半導体封止用として好適で、シリコンチップの素子表面(特に感光性ポリイミド、窒化膜、酸化膜)との密着性が非常に良好であり、耐湿性の高い硬化物を与え、特にリフロー温度260℃以上の高温熱衝撃に対して優れた封止材となり得る液状エポキシ樹脂組成物、及びこの組成物にて封止された半導体装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
電気機器の小型化、軽量化、高機能化に伴い、半導体の実装方法もピン挿入タイプから表面実装が主流になっている。また、半導体素子の高集積化に伴い、ダイサイズの一辺が10mmを超えるものもあり、ダイサイズの大型化が進んできている。このような大型ダイを用いた半導体装置では、半田リフロー時にダイと封止材にかかる応力が増大し、封止材とダイ及び基板の界面で剥離が生じたり、基板実装時にパッケージにクラックが入るといった問題がクローズアップされてきている。
【0003】
更に、近い将来に鉛含有半田が使用できなくなることから、鉛代替半田が多数開発されている。この種の半田は、溶融温度が鉛含有の半田より高くなることから、リフローの温度も260〜270℃で検討されており、従来の液状エポキシ樹脂組成物の封止材では、より一層の不良が予想される。このようにリフローの温度が高くなると、従来においては何ら問題のなかったフリップチップ型のパッケージもリフロー時にクラックが発生したり、チップ界面、基板界面との剥離が発生するという重大な問題が起こるようになった。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、上記事情に鑑みなされたもので、シリコンチップの表面、特に感光性ポリイミド樹脂や窒化膜との密着性に優れ、かつ強靭性に優れた硬化物を与え、リフローの温度が従来温度240℃付近から260〜270℃に上昇しても不良が発生せず、更にPCT(120℃/2.1atm)などの高温多湿の条件下でも劣化せず、−65℃/150℃の温度サイクルにおいて数百サイクルを超えても剥離、クラックが発生しない半導体装置の封止材となり得る液状エポキシ樹脂組成物、及びこの組成物の硬化物で封止された半導体装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段及び発明の実施の形態】
本発明者は、上記目的を達成するために鋭意検討を重ねた結果、(A)液状エポキシ樹脂、(B)芳香族アミン系硬化剤、(C)無機質充填剤及び(D)インデンとスチレンの共重合体よりなる数平均分子量が200〜2000のインデン系ポリマーを予め液状エポキシ樹脂に溶融混合した混合物:インデン系ポリマーの配合量として、(A),(B)成分の総量100重量部に対して0.1〜20重量部を含有する液状エポキシ樹脂組成物において、(B)芳香族アミン系硬化剤が、下記一般式(1)〜(3)で表される少なくとも1種類の純度が99%以上の芳香族アミン化合物を硬化剤全体の5重量%以上含有し、(A)液状エポキシ樹脂と(B)芳香族アミン系硬化剤との配合モル比〔(A)/(B)〕が0.7以上0.9以下であり、この組成物の靭性値K1cが3.5以上となるように配合することにより、シリコンチップの表面、特に感光性ポリイミド樹脂や窒化膜、とりわけ窒化膜との密着性に優れ、PCT(120℃/2.1atm)などの高温多湿の条件下でも劣化せず、熱衝撃に対して優れており、特に大型ダイサイズの半導体装置の封止材として有効であることを知見した。
【0007】
【化2】
(式中、R1〜R4は水素原子又は炭素数1〜6の一価炭化水素基である。)
【0008】
即ち、上記芳香族アミン系硬化剤は、半導体封止材としては公知であり、特に特許第3238340号公報(特許文献1)、特開平10−158366号公報(特許文献2)では、上記一般式(1)〜(3)で表される芳香族アミン系硬化剤と同様なアミン硬化剤を用いており、また特開平10−158366号公報においては、エポキシ樹脂と硬化剤のモル比において、硬化剤1モルに対しエポキシ樹脂を0.9モル以下の硬化剤が過多の場合は、過剰に未反応のアミノ基が残存することとなり、耐湿性の低下・信頼性の低下に繋がるとしているが、本発明は、エポキシ樹脂と上記一般式(1)〜(3)で表される芳香族アミン系硬化剤とのモル比を0.7以上0.9以下の範囲で用いることによって、シリコンチップの表面、特に感光性ポリイミド樹脂や窒化膜との密着性に優れ、かつ熱衝撃性が著しく向上し、高温多湿下でも優れた特性を得ることが可能となることを見出した。また、上記エポキシ樹脂とアミン硬化剤の系では、シランカップリング剤を必須成分にしており、フリップチップ半導体装置の製造において、注入時又は樹脂の硬化時にボイドが発生するが、本発明では、これを改善するためにシランカップリング剤を配合しなくても信頼性に優れ、特に大型ダイサイズの半導体装置の封止材として有効となり得ることを見出した。更に、インデンとスチレンの共重合体よりなる数平均分子量が200〜2000のインデン系ポリマーの特定量を、液状エポキシ樹脂と予め溶融混合した混合物として配合することにより、窒化膜に対する密着性が格段に向上することを見出し、本発明をなすに至ったものである。
【0009】
従って、本発明は、
(A)液状エポキシ樹脂
(B)芳香族アミン系硬化剤
(C)無機質充填剤
(D)インデンとスチレンの共重合体よりなる数平均分子量が200〜2000のインデン系ポリマーを予め液状エポキシ樹脂に溶融混合した混合物:インデン系ポリマーの配合量として、(A),(B)成分の総量100重量部に対して0.1〜20重量部
を含有する液状エポキシ樹脂組成物において、(B)芳香族アミン系硬化剤として、上記一般式(1)〜(3)で表される少なくとも1種類の純度が99%以上の芳香族アミン化合物を硬化剤全体の5重量%以上含有し、(A)液状エポキシ樹脂と(B)芳香族アミン系硬化剤との配合モル比〔(A)/(B)〕が0.7以上0.9以下であり、この組成物の靭性値K1cが3.5以上であることを特徴とする液状エポキシ樹脂組成物、及びこの液状エポキシ樹脂組成物の硬化物で封止された半導体装置、並びにこの液状エポキシ樹脂組成物の硬化物をアンダーフィル材として封止したフリップチップ型半導体装置を提供する。
【0010】
以下、本発明につき更に詳しく説明する。
本発明の半導体封止材(液状エポキシ樹脂組成物)において、液状エポキシ樹脂(A)は、1分子内に2官能基以下のエポキシ基を含有する常温で液状であるエポキシ樹脂なら、いかなるものでも使用可能であるが、25℃における粘度が2,000ポイズ以下、特に500ポイズ以下のものが好ましく、具体的には、ビスフェノールA型エポキシ樹脂、ビスフェノールF型エポキシ樹脂等のビスフェノール型エポキシ樹脂、ナフタレン型エポキシ樹脂、フェニルグリシジルエーテルなどが挙げられ、この中でも室温で液状のエポキシ樹脂が望ましい。これらのエポキシ樹脂には、下記構造で示されるエポキシ樹脂を浸入性に影響を及ぼさない範囲で添加しても何ら問題はない。
【0011】
【化3】
【0012】
上記液状エポキシ樹脂中の全塩素含有量は、1,500ppm以下、望ましくは1,000ppm以下であることが好ましい。また、100℃で50%エポキシ樹脂濃度における20時間での抽出水塩素が10ppm以下であることが好ましい。全塩素含有量が1,500ppmを超え、又は抽出水塩素が10ppmを超えると半導体素子の信頼性、特に耐湿性に悪影響を与えるおそれがある。
【0013】
次に、本発明に使用する芳香族アミン系硬化剤(B)は、下記一般式(1)〜(3)で表される少なくとも1種類の純度が99%以上の芳香族アミン化合物を硬化剤全体の5重量%以上、好ましくは10〜100重量%、より好ましくは20〜100重量%含有する。一般式(1)〜(3)で表される芳香族アミン化合物が、硬化剤全体の5重量%未満であると、接着力が低下したり、クラックが発生する。また純度が99%未満であると、匂いが強いため生産作業性に劣る。なお、ここでいう純度とは、モノマーの純度である。
【0014】
【化4】
(式中、R1〜R4は水素原子又は炭素数1〜6の一価炭化水素基である。)
【0015】
ここで、R1〜R4の一価炭化水素基としては、炭素数1〜6、特に1〜3のものが好ましく、メチル基、エチル基、プロピル基、イソプロピル基、ブチル基、イソブチル基、tert−ブチル基、ヘキシル基等のアルキル基、ビニル基、アリル基、プロペニル基、ブテニル基、ヘキセニル基等のアルケニル基、フェニル基などや、これらの炭化水素基の水素原子の一部又は全部を塩素、フッ素、臭素等のハロゲン原子で置換したフロロメチル基、ブロモエチル基、トリフルオロプロピル基等のハロゲン置換一価炭化水素基を挙げることができる。
【0016】
また、上記芳香族アミン系硬化剤以外の硬化剤としては、2,4−ジアミノトルエン、1,4−ジアミノベンゼン、1,3−ジアミノベンゼン等の低分子芳香族アミンであることが好ましい。
【0017】
上記芳香族アミン系硬化剤は、通常、常温で固体であり、そのまま配合すると樹脂粘度が上昇し、作業性が著しく悪くなるため、あらかじめエポキシ樹脂と溶融混合することが好ましく、後述する指定の配合量で、70〜150℃の温度範囲で1時間〜2時間溶融混合することが望ましい。混合温度が70℃未満であると芳香族アミン系硬化剤が十分に相溶しにくくなるおそれがあり、150℃を超える温度であるとエポキシ樹脂と反応して粘度上昇するおそれがある。また、混合時間が1時間未満であると芳香族アミン系硬化剤が十分に相溶せず、粘度上昇を招くおそれがあり、2時間を超えるとエポキシ樹脂と反応し、粘度上昇するおそれがある。
【0018】
なお、本発明に用いられる芳香族アミン系硬化剤の総配合量は、液状エポキシ樹脂と芳香族アミン系硬化剤との配合モル比〔(A)液状エポキシ樹脂/(B)芳香族アミン系硬化剤〕を0.7以上0.9以下、好ましくは0.7以上0.9未満、更に好ましくは0.7〜0.85の範囲にすることが必要である。配合モル比が0.7未満では未反応のアミン基が残存し、ガラス転移温度の低下となり、また密着性が低下する。逆に0.9を超えるとK1c値が下がり、硬化物が硬く脆くなり、リフロー時にクラックが発生する。
【0019】
一方、本発明に用いられる無機質充填剤(C)は、膨張係数を小さくする目的から、従来より知られている各種の無機質充填剤を添加することができる。無機質充填剤として、具体的には、溶融シリカ、結晶シリカ、アルミナ、ボロンナイトライド、チッカアルミ、チッカ珪素、マグネシア、マグネシウムシリケート、アルミニウムなどが挙げられる。中でも真球状の溶融シリカが低粘度化のため望ましい。なお、これらの無機質充填剤は、シランカップリング剤等で表面処理されたものであってもよいが、表面処理なしでも使用できる。
【0020】
本発明の組成物をポッティング材として使用する場合、平均粒径が2〜20μmで、最大粒径が75μm以下、特に50μm以下のものが望ましい。平均粒径が2μm未満では粘度が高くなり、多量に充填できない場合があり、一方20μmを超えると粗い粒子が多くなり、リード線につまり、ボイドとなるおそれがある。
【0021】
この場合、無機質充填剤の充填量は、エポキシ樹脂100重量部に対して100〜600重量部の範囲が好ましい。100重量部未満では、膨張係数が大きく冷熱試験においてクラックの発生を誘発させるおそれがある。600重量部を超えると、粘度が高くなり流動性の低下をもたらすおそれがある。
【0022】
なお、アンダーフィル材として使用する場合には、侵入性の向上と低線膨張化の両立を図るためフリップチップギャップ幅(基板と半導体チップとの隙間)に対して平均粒径が約1/10以下、最大粒径が1/2以下とすることが好ましい。
【0023】
この場合の無機質充填剤の配合量としては、エポキシ樹脂100重量部に対して50〜400重量部で配合することが好ましく、より好ましくは100〜250重量部の範囲で配合する。50重量部未満では、膨張係数が大きく、冷熱試験においてクラックの発生を誘発させるおそれがある。400重量部を超えると、粘度が高くなり、薄膜侵入性の低下をもたらすおそれがある。
【0024】
本発明の液状エポキシ樹脂組成物には、特に窒化膜に対する密着性を向上させる目的から、インデンとスチレンの共重合体よりなるインデン系ポリマーを予め上記液状エポキシ樹脂に溶融混合した混合物(D)を配合するものである。この場合、インデン系ポリマーは、数平均分子量が200〜2000、好ましくは500〜1000のものである。またインデン系ポリマーは、軟化点が90〜150℃、150℃での溶融粘度が5〜60ポイズ、特に密着性向上のためには10〜50ポイズのものが好ましい。
【0025】
このようなインデン系ポリマーとして、具体的には、インデンとスチレンとの2元共重合体、インデンとクマロンとスチレンとの3元共重合体、インデンとベンゾチオフェンとスチレンとの3元共重合体より誘導されるインデン系ポリマーが挙げられ、特に下記式で示されるインデン系ポリマーが好ましい。
【0026】
【化5】
であり、r、s、tはそれぞれ1以上の整数であり、r+s、r+t+sは上記数平均分子量を与える値である。)
【0027】
本発明において、インデン系ポリマー中のインデン単位量(上記式中のr)は、30モル%以上であることが好ましい。インデン単位が30モル%未満では、十分な密着性を得ることができないおそれがある。特に、密着性向上のためには、60モル%以上であることが好ましく、更に好ましくは90モル%以上である。上限としては、99モル%以下、特に98モル%以下であることが好ましい。また、インデン系ポリマー中のスチレン単位量(上記式中のs)としては、70モル%以下、特に60モル%以下であることが好ましく、下限としては、2モル%以上、特に10モル%以上であることが好ましい。
【0028】
このようなインデン系ポリマーとしては、たとえば新日鉄化学社製のインデン系オリゴマーIP−100(インデンとクマロンとスチレンとの3元共重合オリゴマー)、IS−100BT(インデンとベンゾチオフェンとスチレンとの3元共重合オリゴマー)等が挙げられる。
【0029】
なお、本発明において、インデン系ポリマーは、予め上記液状エポキシ樹脂と溶融混合しておくことが必要であり、この際のインデン系ポリマーと液状エポキシ樹脂との溶融混合比率は、重量比として、インデン系ポリマー:液状エポキシ樹脂=8:2〜4:6、特に7:3〜5:5であることが好ましい。インデン系ポリマーの割合が多すぎると相容性が悪く、粘度が高くなり、作業性が困難となる場合があり、また少なすぎるとインデン系ポリマーを必要量配合できなくなるおそれがある。
【0030】
インデン系ポリマーと液状エポキシ樹脂の溶融混合物は、両者を溶融温度下で完全に溶融混合するまで撹拌することによって得ることができる。この場合、溶融混合条件は、適宜選定することができるが、80〜150℃、特に100〜120℃の温度で、1〜2時間とすることが好ましい。
【0031】
(D)成分の配合量は、インデン系ポリマーの配合量として、組成物中の液状エポキシ樹脂と硬化剤の合計量100重量部に対して0.1〜20重量部、望ましくは0.5〜10重量部である。0.1重量部未満では十分な密着性向上の効果が得られず、20重量部を超えると架橋密度が低下し、十分な強度が得られなくなる。
【0032】
本発明の液状エポキシ樹脂組成物には、応力を低下させる目的でシリコーンゴム、シリコーンオイルや液状のポリブタジエンゴム、メタクリル酸メチル−ブタジエン−スチレンよりなる熱可塑性樹脂などを配合してもよい。好ましくは、アルケニル基含有エポキシ樹脂又はフェノール樹脂のアルケニル基と下記平均組成式(4)で示される1分子中の珪素原子の数が20〜400であり、かつ珪素原子に直接結合した水素原子(SiH基)の数が1〜5であるオルガノポリシロキサンのSiH基との付加反応により得られる共重合体からなるシリコーン変性樹脂を配合することが好ましい。
【0033】
HaR5 bSiO(4−a−b)/2 (4)
(但し、式中R5は置換又は非置換の一価炭化水素基、aは0.01〜0.1、bは1.8〜2.2、1.81≦a+b≦2.3である。)
【0034】
なお、R5の置換又は非置換の一価炭化水素基としては、炭素数1〜10、特に1〜8のものが好ましく、メチル基、エチル基、プロピル基、イソプロピル基、ブチル基、イソブチル基、tert−ブチル基、ヘキシル基、オクチル基、デシル基等のアルキル基、ビニル基、アリル基、プロペニル基、ブテニル基、ヘキセニル基等のアルケニル基、フェニル基、キシリル基、トリル基等のアリール基、ベンジル基、フェニルエチル基、フェニルプロピル基等のアラルキル基などや、これらの炭化水素基の水素原子の一部又は全部を塩素、フッ素、臭素等のハロゲン原子で置換したフロロメチル基、ブロモエチル基、トリフルオロプロピル基等のハロゲン置換一価炭化水素基を挙げることができる。
上記共重合体としては、中でも下記構造のものが望ましい。
【0035】
【化6】
【0036】
上記式中、R5は上記と同じであり、R6は水素原子又は炭素数1〜4のアルキル基であり、R7は−CH2CH2CH2−、−OCH2−CH(OH)−CH2−O−CH2CH2CH2−又は−O−CH2CH2CH2−である。nは4〜199、好ましくは19〜99の整数、pは1〜10の整数、qは1〜10の整数である。
【0037】
上記共重合体をジオルガノポリシロキサン単位がエポキシ樹脂100重量部に対して0〜20重量部、特には2〜15重量部含まれるように配合することで応力をより一層低下させることができる。
【0038】
本発明の液状エポキシ樹脂組成物には、更に必要に応じ、接着向上用炭素官能性シラン、カーボンブラックなどの顔料、染料、酸化防止剤、その他の添加剤を本発明の目的を損なわない範囲で配合することができる。ただし、本発明においては、表面処理剤として使用する以外に接着向上用炭素官能性シラン等としてアルコキシ系シランカップリング剤を添加しないことが好ましい。特に、アンダーフィル材として用いる場合、少量でもアルコキシ系シランカップリング剤を配合すると、ボイドの原因となるおそれがある。
【0039】
本発明の液状エポキシ樹脂組成物は、例えば、液状エポキシ樹脂、芳香族アミン系硬化剤、無機質充填剤、インデン系ポリマーと液状エポキシ樹脂の溶融混合物及びその他の添加剤等を同時に又は別々に、必要により加熱処理を加えながら、撹拌、溶解、混合、分散させることにより得ることができる。これらの混合、撹拌、分散等の装置としては、特に限定されるものではないが、撹拌、加熱装置を備えたライカイ機、3本ロール、ボールミル、プラネタリーミキサー等を用いることができる。またこれら装置を適宜組み合わせて使用してもよい。
【0040】
なお、本発明において、封止材として用いる液状エポキシ樹脂組成物の粘度は、25℃において10,000ポイズ以下のものが好ましい。また、この組成物の成形方法、成形条件は、常法とすることができるが、好ましくは、先に100〜120℃、0.5時間以上、その後150℃、0.5時間以上の条件で熱オーブンキュアを行う。100〜120℃での加熱が0.5時間未満では、硬化後にボイドが発生する場合がある。また150℃での加熱が0.5時間未満では、十分な硬化物特性が得られない場合がある。
【0041】
また、本発明の液状エポキシ樹脂組成物の靭性値K1cは3.5以上であり、好ましくは4.0以上である。靭性値K1cが3.5未満であると熱衝撃性、温度サイクル性が低下する。
【0042】
ここで、本発明に用いるフリップチップ型半導体装置としては、例えば図1に示したように、通常、有機基板1の配線パターン面に複数個のバンプ2を介して半導体チップ3が搭載されているものであり、上記有機基板1と半導体チップ3との隙間(バンプ2間の隙間)にアンダーフィル材4が充填され、その側部がフィレット材5で封止されたものとすることができるが、本発明の封止材は、特にアンダーフィル材として使用する場合に有効である。
【0043】
本発明の液状エポキシ樹脂組成物をアンダーフィル材として用いる場合、その硬化物のガラス転移温度以下の膨張係数が20〜40ppm/℃であることが好ましい。なお、この場合、フィレット材用の封止材は公知のものでよく、特に上述したアンダーフィル材と同様の液状エポキシ樹脂組成物を用いることができるが、この場合はその硬化物のガラス転移温度以下の膨張係数が10〜20ppm/℃であるものが好ましい。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention is suitable for semiconductor encapsulation, and gives a cured product having very good adhesion to the element surface of a silicon chip (especially photosensitive polyimide, nitride film, and oxide film) and high moisture resistance. The present invention relates to a liquid epoxy resin composition that can be an excellent sealing material against high-temperature thermal shock at a reflow temperature of 260 ° C. or higher, and a semiconductor device sealed with this composition.
[0002]
[Prior art]
With the miniaturization, weight reduction, and sophistication of electric devices, semiconductor mounting methods have shifted from pin insertion type to surface mounting. In addition, with the increase in the degree of integration of semiconductor elements, there is a case in which one side of the die size exceeds 10 mm, and the die size is increasing. In a semiconductor device using such a large die, the stress applied to the die and the sealing material at the time of solder reflow increases, and peeling occurs at the interface between the sealing material, the die, and the substrate, or a package cracks when the substrate is mounted. Such problems are getting closer.
[0003]
Further, since lead-containing solders will not be used in the near future, many lead-substituting solders have been developed. Since the melting temperature of this type of solder is higher than that of lead-containing solder, the reflow temperature is also studied at 260 to 270 ° C., and the conventional liquid epoxy resin composition encapsulant is more defective. Is expected. When the reflow temperature is increased in this manner, a serious problem such as the occurrence of cracks at the time of reflow and the separation of the chip interface and the substrate interface from the flip-chip type package, which had no problem in the past, may occur. Became.

A mixture in which an indene polymer having a number average molecular weight of 200 to 2,000 made of a copolymer is melt-mixed in advance with a liquid epoxy resin: the blending amount of the indene polymer is based on 100 parts by weight of the total amount of the components (A) and (B). In the liquid epoxy resin composition containing 0.1 to 20 parts by weight, the aromatic amine-based curing agent (B) has a purity of at least one kind represented by the following general formulas (1) to (3) of at least one. % Or more of an aromatic amine compound in an amount of 5% by weight or more of the entire curing agent, and the mixing molar ratio of (A) the liquid epoxy resin to (B) the aromatic amine-based curing agent [(A) / (B)] is 0.7 or more and 0.9 or less , By blending as toughness K 1c in the composition is 3.5 or more, the surface of the silicon chip, in particular a photosensitive polyimide resin or a nitride film, especially excellent adhesion to the nitride film, PCT (120 (Atmospheric temperature / 2.1 atm), it does not deteriorate even under conditions of high temperature and high humidity, is excellent in thermal shock, and is found to be particularly effective as a sealing material for a semiconductor device having a large die size.

That is, the aromatic amine-based curing agent is known as a semiconductor encapsulant. In particular, Japanese Patent No. 3238340 (Patent Document 1) and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-158366 (Patent Document 2) disclose the above-mentioned general formula. The same amine curing agent as the aromatic amine curing agent represented by (1) to (3) is used, and in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. H10-158366, the curing ratio is determined by the molar ratio between the epoxy resin and the curing agent. If the amount of the curing agent of 0.9 mol or less of the epoxy resin per 1 mol of the agent is excessive, unreacted amino groups will remain excessively, leading to a decrease in moisture resistance and a decrease in reliability. The present invention provides a silicon chip by using a molar ratio of the epoxy resin and the aromatic amine-based curing agent represented by the general formulas (1) to (3) in the range of 0.7 or more and 0.9 or less. Surface, especially photosensitive Excellent adhesion to the polyimide resin or a nitride film, and thermal shock resistance is remarkably improved, have found that it is possible to obtain excellent characteristics even under high temperature and high humidity. Further, in the system of the epoxy resin and the amine curing agent, a silane coupling agent is an essential component, and in the production of a flip chip semiconductor device, voids are generated at the time of injection or curing of the resin. It has been found that even if a silane coupling agent is not blended in order to improve the reliability, it is excellent in reliability and can be particularly effective as a sealing material for a large-sized semiconductor device. Furthermore, by blending a specific amount of an indene-based polymer having a number average molecular weight of 200 to 2,000 consisting of a copolymer of indene and styrene as a mixture previously melt-mixed with a liquid epoxy resin, the adhesion to the nitride film is remarkably improved. The present invention has been found to be improved, and the present invention has been accomplished.
[0009]
Therefore, the present invention
(A) a liquid epoxy resin (B) an aromatic amine-based curing agent (C) an inorganic filler (D) an indene polymer having a number average molecular weight of 200 to 2,000, which is composed of a copolymer of indene and styrene, is converted into a liquid epoxy resin in advance. Melt-mixed mixture: In a liquid epoxy resin composition containing 0.1 to 20 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the total amount of the components (A) and (B), As an aromatic amine-based curing agent, at least one aromatic amine compound having a purity of 99% or more represented by the general formulas (1) to (3) is contained in an amount of 5% by weight or more of the entire curing agent; The molar ratio [(A) / (B)] of the liquid epoxy resin to the aromatic amine curing agent (B) is 0.7 or more and 0.9 or less, and the toughness value K 1c of this composition is 3. Characterized by 5 or more Provided are a liquid epoxy resin composition, a semiconductor device sealed with a cured product of the liquid epoxy resin composition, and a flip chip type semiconductor device sealed with the cured product of the liquid epoxy resin composition as an underfill material. .
[0010]
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.
In the semiconductor encapsulant (liquid epoxy resin composition) of the present invention, the liquid epoxy resin (A) may be any epoxy resin that is liquid at room temperature and contains two or less functional groups in one molecule. Although it can be used, it is preferable that the viscosity at 25 ° C. is 2,000 poise or less, particularly 500 poise or less. Specifically, bisphenol type epoxy resins such as bisphenol A type epoxy resin and bisphenol F type epoxy resin, naphthalene Type epoxy resin, phenylglycidyl ether, etc., among which an epoxy resin which is liquid at room temperature is desirable. There is no problem even if an epoxy resin having the following structure is added to these epoxy resins within a range that does not affect the infiltration property.
[0011]

[0012]
The total chlorine content in the liquid epoxy resin is preferably 1,500 ppm or less, more preferably 1,000 ppm or less. Further, it is preferable that the extracted water chlorine in 20 hours at 100 ° C. and 50% epoxy resin concentration is 10 ppm or less. If the total chlorine content exceeds 1,500 ppm or the amount of chlorine in the extracted water exceeds 10 ppm, the reliability of the semiconductor element, particularly, the moisture resistance may be adversely affected.
[0013]
Next, the aromatic amine curing agent (B) used in the present invention comprises at least one aromatic amine compound having a purity of 99% or more represented by the following general formulas (1) to (3). The content is 5% by weight or more, preferably 10 to 100% by weight, more preferably 20 to 100% by weight of the whole. When the amount of the aromatic amine compound represented by any one of the general formulas (1) to (3) is less than 5% by weight of the entire curing agent, the adhesive strength is reduced or cracks occur. On the other hand, if the purity is less than 99%, the odor is so strong that the productivity is poor. In addition, the purity mentioned here is the purity of the monomer.
[0014]

(In the formula, R 1 to R 4 are a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms.)
[0015]
Here, as the monovalent hydrocarbon group of R 1 to R 4 , those having 1 to 6, particularly 1 to 3 carbon atoms are preferable, and a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, a butyl group, an isobutyl group, tert-butyl group, alkyl group such as hexyl group, alkenyl group such as vinyl group, allyl group, propenyl group, butenyl group, hexenyl group, phenyl group and the like, and part or all of hydrogen atoms of these hydrocarbon groups. Examples include halogen-substituted monovalent hydrocarbon groups such as a fluoromethyl group, a bromoethyl group, and a trifluoropropyl group substituted with a halogen atom such as chlorine, fluorine, and bromine.
[0016]
The curing agent other than the aromatic amine-based curing agent is preferably a low-molecular aromatic amine such as 2,4-diaminotoluene, 1,4-diaminobenzene, and 1,3-diaminobenzene.
[0017]
The aromatic amine-based curing agent is usually solid at ordinary temperature, and if it is added as it is, the viscosity of the resin increases, and the workability is significantly deteriorated. It is desirable to melt-mix at a temperature of 70 to 150 ° C for 1 hour to 2 hours. If the mixing temperature is lower than 70 ° C., the aromatic amine-based curing agent may not be sufficiently compatible, and if the mixing temperature is higher than 150 ° C., it may react with the epoxy resin and increase the viscosity. Also, if the mixing time is less than 1 hour, the aromatic amine-based curing agent is not sufficiently compatible and may cause an increase in viscosity, and if it exceeds 2 hours, it may react with the epoxy resin and increase in viscosity. .
[0018]
The total amount of the aromatic amine-based curing agent used in the present invention is determined by the molar ratio of the liquid epoxy resin to the aromatic amine-based curing agent [(A) liquid epoxy resin / (B) aromatic amine-based curing agent]. Agent] should be in the range of 0.7 to 0.9, preferably 0.7 to less than 0.9, and more preferably 0.7 to 0.85. If the compounding molar ratio is less than 0.7, unreacted amine groups remain, which lowers the glass transition temperature and lowers the adhesion. Conversely, if it exceeds 0.9, the K1c value decreases, the cured product becomes hard and brittle, and cracks occur during reflow.
[0019]
On the other hand, the inorganic filler (C) used in the present invention may contain various conventionally known inorganic fillers for the purpose of reducing the expansion coefficient. Specific examples of the inorganic filler include fused silica, crystalline silica, alumina, boron nitride, titanium aluminum, titanium silicon, magnesia, magnesium silicate, and aluminum. Above all, fused silica having a true spherical shape is desirable for lowering the viscosity. These inorganic fillers may be surface-treated with a silane coupling agent or the like, but can be used without surface treatment.
[0020]
When the composition of the present invention is used as a potting material, it is desirable that the average particle size is 2 to 20 μm and the maximum particle size is 75 μm or less, particularly 50 μm or less. If the average particle size is less than 2 μm, the viscosity becomes high and a large amount cannot be filled in some cases. On the other hand, if the average particle size exceeds 20 μm, coarse particles increase and the lead wire may be clogged with voids.
[0021]
In this case, the filling amount of the inorganic filler is preferably in the range of 100 to 600 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the epoxy resin. If the amount is less than 100 parts by weight, the coefficient of expansion is large and cracks may be induced in a thermal test. If the amount exceeds 600 parts by weight, the viscosity may increase and the fluidity may decrease.
[0022]
When used as an underfill material, the average particle size is about 1/10 of the flip chip gap width (gap between the substrate and the semiconductor chip) in order to achieve both improved penetration and low linear expansion. Hereinafter, it is preferable that the maximum particle size be 以下 or less.
[0023]
In this case, the compounding amount of the inorganic filler is preferably 50 to 400 parts by weight, more preferably 100 to 250 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the epoxy resin. If the amount is less than 50 parts by weight, the coefficient of expansion is large, and there is a possibility that cracks may be generated in a thermal test. If the amount exceeds 400 parts by weight, the viscosity becomes high, and there is a possibility that the penetration of the thin film is reduced.
[0024]
The liquid epoxy resin composition of the present invention includes a mixture (D) in which an indene-based polymer composed of a copolymer of indene and styrene is melt-mixed in advance with the above liquid epoxy resin for the purpose of improving the adhesion to a nitride film. It is to be blended. In this case, the indene-based polymer has a number average molecular weight of 200 to 2,000, preferably 500 to 1,000. The indene-based polymer preferably has a softening point of 90 to 150 ° C. and a melt viscosity at 150 ° C. of 5 to 60 poise, and particularly preferably 10 to 50 poise for improving adhesion.

[0027]
In the present invention, the indene unit amount (r in the above formula) in the indene-based polymer is preferably at least 30 mol%. If the indene unit is less than 30 mol%, sufficient adhesion may not be obtained. In particular, in order to improve the adhesion, it is preferably at least 60 mol%, more preferably at least 90 mol%. The upper limit is preferably 99 mol% or less, particularly preferably 98 mol% or less. The styrene unit content (s in the above formula) in the indene-based polymer is preferably 70 mol% or less, particularly preferably 60 mol% or less, and the lower limit is 2 mol% or more, particularly 10 mol% or more. It is preferable that

Copolymerized oligomer) and the like.
[0029]
In the present invention, the indene-based polymer needs to be melt-mixed with the above-mentioned liquid epoxy resin in advance, and the melt-mixing ratio of the indene-based polymer and the liquid epoxy resin at this time is expressed as a weight ratio of indene. System polymer: liquid epoxy resin = 8: 2 to 4: 6, preferably 7: 3 to 5: 5. If the proportion of the indene-based polymer is too large, the compatibility may be poor, the viscosity may be high, and the workability may be difficult. If the proportion is too small, the required amount of the indene-based polymer may not be blended.
[0030]
The molten mixture of the indene polymer and the liquid epoxy resin can be obtained by stirring the two at the melting temperature until they are completely melt-mixed. In this case, the melt mixing conditions can be appropriately selected, but it is preferable to set the temperature at 80 to 150 ° C., particularly 100 to 120 ° C., for 1 to 2 hours.

If the amount is less than 0.1 part by weight, a sufficient effect of improving the adhesion cannot be obtained. If the amount is more than 20 parts by weight, the crosslinking density decreases, and sufficient strength cannot be obtained.
