Description

 本発明は、接着剤、特に導電粒子を含有する異方導電性接着剤に関する。さらには、液晶パネルと外部回路基板又は半導体素子との接続に異方導電性接着剤を用いた液晶装置及びその製造方法に関する。また、この液晶装置を表示部として備えた電子機器に関する。 The present invention relates to an adhesive, particularly to an anisotropic conductive adhesive containing conductive particles. Further, the present invention relates to a liquid crystal device using an anisotropic conductive adhesive for connecting a liquid crystal panel to an external circuit board or a semiconductor element, and a method for manufacturing the same. In addition, the present invention relates to an electronic device including the liquid crystal device as a display unit.

 液晶パネルのガラス基板上に設けられた入力端子とTCP(Tape Carrier Package)の端子(端子上にバンプが形成されている場合もある)との接続のように、ファインピッチの端子間の接続には異方導電性の接着剤が用いられている。 For connection between fine pitch terminals, such as connection between an input terminal provided on a glass substrate of a liquid crystal panel and a terminal of a TCP (Tape Carrier Package) (a bump may be formed on the terminal). Uses an anisotropic conductive adhesive.

 従来の異方導電性の接着剤は、エポキシ樹脂等の熱硬化性あるいは熱可塑性の絶縁性接着材料と、この接着剤内に配置された複数の導電粒子とで構成されていた。ここで、絶縁性接着材料は、被接着物、つまりガラス基板とポリイミド製のTCPとに接着されるため、これらの材質の異なる被接着物のいずれにも所定の接着力で接着できるように汎用性の高い接着剤を用いていた。 (4) A conventional anisotropic conductive adhesive is composed of a thermosetting or thermoplastic insulating adhesive material such as an epoxy resin, and a plurality of conductive particles arranged in the adhesive. Here, since the insulating adhesive material is bonded to the adherend, that is, the glass substrate and the TCP made of polyimide, a general-purpose adhesive is used so that the insulating adhesive material can adhere to any of the adherends having different materials with a predetermined adhesive force. Highly adhesive was used.

 しかしながら、汎用性がある接着剤は、どの材質の被接着物に対しても一定レベルの接着力が得られるが、一方の被接着物に対して一定レベル以上の接着力を求めると、他方の被接着物との接着力が低下してしまい、全体としては一定レベル以上の接着力が得られないという問題があった。 However, a versatile adhesive can provide a certain level of adhesive force to any material to be bonded, but if a certain level of adhesive force is required for one of the materials to be bonded, the other will be used. There has been a problem that the adhesive force with the object to be bonded is reduced, and the adhesive force of a certain level or more cannot be obtained as a whole.

 特に、液晶パネルにガラス基板を用い、そのガラス基板と外部回路基板である高分子基板とを接続する場合にあっては、両者の接着特性が著しく異なることがある。そのため、接着剥がれに起因する不良が、ガラス基板と高分子基板のうちのどちらか一方のみにおいて起こりやすい傾向にあった。 Especially, when a glass substrate is used for a liquid crystal panel and the glass substrate is connected to a polymer substrate which is an external circuit substrate, the adhesive characteristics of the two may be significantly different. For this reason, the defect due to the peeling of the adhesive tends to easily occur in only one of the glass substrate and the polymer substrate.

 本発明の目的は、材質が異なる2種類の被接着物に接着される場合でも、各被接着物との接着力をそれぞれ向上できる異方導電性接着剤を用いた接着構造を実現すること、及び、接続不良が生じない液晶装置及びそれを用いた電子機器等を実現することにある。 An object of the present invention is to realize an adhesive structure using an anisotropic conductive adhesive that can improve the adhesive force with each of the adherends even when the adherends are bonded to two types of adherends having different materials. It is another object of the present invention to realize a liquid crystal device in which a connection failure does not occur and an electronic device using the same.

 本発明の接着構造は、第1被接着物と第2被接着物とが接着剤によって接着された接着構造において、前記第1被接着物に形成された第1電極端子、及び前記第2被接着物に形成された第2電極端子を有し、前記第1電極端子の前記第1被接着物の表面からの厚さは前記第2電極端子の前記第2被接着物の表面からの厚さより薄く、前記接着剤は、第1接着層と第2接着層とが積層されてなり、前記第1接着層は導電性粒子を含んでなり、前記第1接着層の厚さは前記導電性粒子の直径より厚く、前記第1接着層は、前記第1被接着物に対する接着力が前記第2接着層よりも高く、前記第2接着層は、前記第2被接着物に対する接着力が前記第1接着層よりも高く、前記第1接着層は前記第1被接着物と接着しており、前記第2接着層は、前記第2被接着物と接着していること、を特徴とする。 The bonding structure according to the present invention is a bonding structure in which a first bonded object and a second bonded object are bonded by an adhesive, wherein the first electrode terminal formed on the first bonded object and the second bonding object are provided. A second electrode terminal formed on the adhesive; a thickness of the first electrode terminal from a surface of the first adhesive; a thickness of the second electrode terminal from a surface of the second adhesive; The first adhesive layer is made of a laminate of a first adhesive layer and a second adhesive layer, the first adhesive layer contains conductive particles, and the thickness of the first adhesive layer is Thicker than the diameter of the particles, the first adhesive layer has a higher adhesive force to the first adherend than the second adhesive layer, and the second adhesive layer has an adhesive force to the second adherend. Higher than the first adhesive layer, the first adhesive layer is adhered to the first adherend, the second adhesive layer, That it is adhered to the serial second adherend, characterized.

 本発明の接着構造を用いて、第1被接着物と第2被接着物を接着する場合にあっては、第1の接着層と第1被接着物とを接しさせ、第2接着層と第2被接着物とを接しさせることができる。そうすることにより、各被接着物が各々に応じた接着特性の下で、他方の被接着物と接着されるため、被接着物同士の接着が強固なものになる。 In the case where the first adherend and the second adherend are adhered to each other using the adhesive structure of the present invention, the first adhesive layer and the first adherend are brought into contact with each other, and the second adhesive layer is The second object can be brought into contact with the second object. By doing so, each of the adherends is adhered to the other adherend under the adhesive characteristics according to each, so that the adherence between the adherends becomes strong.

 第1被接着物と第2被接着物との間で電気的接続をとる必要が有る場合にあっては、本発明のように第1接着層中に導電性粒子を混入させれば良い。もちろん、第2接着層中にも導電性粒子を混入してもかまわないが、通常、第1被接着物と第2被接着物との間で電気的接続をおこなう場合にあっては第1被接着物と第2被接着物とを互いに押しつけるようにして接着する。そのため、第1接着層中にのみ導電粒子を混入させれば電気的接続はできる。 (4) When it is necessary to make an electrical connection between the first adherend and the second adherend, conductive particles may be mixed into the first adhesive layer as in the present invention. Of course, conductive particles may be mixed in the second adhesive layer, but usually, when electrical connection is made between the first adherend and the second adherend, the first adhesive is used. The object to be bonded and the second object to be bonded are bonded by pressing each other. Therefore, if the conductive particles are mixed only in the first adhesive layer, electrical connection can be made.

 第1接着層中にのみ導電粒子を配置すると、導電粒子の数や配置を管理しやすいので、容易に異方導電性の接着剤を製造することができる。この場合において、第2接着層は第2被接着物との接着のみに利用できればよいため、第1接着層に比べて接着層の厚みを薄く形成することができる。 (4) If the conductive particles are arranged only in the first adhesive layer, the number and arrangement of the conductive particles can be easily controlled, so that an anisotropic conductive adhesive can be easily produced. In this case, since the second adhesive layer only needs to be used only for adhesion with the second adherend, the thickness of the adhesive layer can be made smaller than that of the first adhesive layer.

 また、一般的に、被接着物の接着は圧着により行う。この圧着の際には、電極端子によって接着剤が押し出され、そして流出する。当然のことながら、電極端子の厚みが厚い電極端子によって押し出される接着剤の量の方が、厚みが薄い電極端子によって押し出される接着剤の量より多い。第1被接着物と第2被接着物との間で確実な電気的接続を行うためには、導電粒子の流出をなくすことが好ましい。 一般 Generally, the bonding of the objects is performed by pressure bonding. During this crimping, the adhesive is pushed out by the electrode terminals and flows out. As a matter of course, the amount of the adhesive extruded by the electrode terminal having the thick electrode terminal is larger than the amount of the adhesive extruded by the electrode terminal having the small thickness. In order to make a reliable electrical connection between the first adherend and the second adherend, it is preferable to prevent outflow of the conductive particles.

 本発明においては、導電粒子が混入された第1の層と、電極端子の厚みが薄い電極端子を有する基板とを接しさせるため、圧着の際の導電粒子の流出を防止することができる。 In the present invention, since the first layer in which the conductive particles are mixed is brought into contact with the substrate having the electrode terminals with thin electrode terminals, it is possible to prevent the conductive particles from flowing out at the time of crimping.

 また、本発明の接着構造は、第1被接着物と第2被接着物とが接着剤によって接着された接着構造において、前記第1被接着物に形成された第1電極端子、及び前記第2被接着物に形成された第2電極端子を有し、前記第1電極端子の前記第1被接着物の表面からの厚さは前記第2電極端子の前記第2被接着物の表面からの厚さより薄く、前記接着剤は、第1接着層と第2接着層と導電層とが積層されてなり、前記導電層は前記第1接着層と前記第2接着層との間に積層され、導電性粒子を含み、前記第2接着層の厚さは第1接着層の厚さより厚く、前記第1接着層は、前記第1被接着物に対する接着力が前記第2接着層よりも高く、前記第2接着層は、前記第2被接着物に対する接着力が前記第1接着層よりも高く、前記第1接着層は前記第1被接着物と接着しており、前記第2接着層は、前記第2被接着物と接着していること、を特徴とする。 Further, the bonding structure of the present invention is a bonding structure in which a first bonded object and a second bonded object are bonded by an adhesive, wherein the first electrode terminal formed on the first bonded object, 2 having a second electrode terminal formed on the adherend, wherein the thickness of the first electrode terminal from the surface of the first adherend is from the surface of the second adherend of the second electrode terminal. The adhesive is formed by laminating a first adhesive layer, a second adhesive layer, and a conductive layer, and the conductive layer is laminated between the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer. And conductive particles, wherein the thickness of the second adhesive layer is greater than the thickness of the first adhesive layer, and the first adhesive layer has a higher adhesive force to the first adherend than the second adhesive layer. The second adhesive layer has a higher adhesive strength to the second adherend than the first adhesive layer, and the first adhesive layer is The first is adhered to the adherend, the second adhesive layer, it is bonded to the second adherend, characterized.

 この場合、導電性粒子が配置される第3の接着層は、被接着物に直接接触しないため、被接着物に合わせて材質を選定する必要がない。このため、接着剤がどのような被接着物に接着される場合でも、それらの被接着物に応じて第1および第2の接着層の接着特性のみを設定すればよく、導電層の絶縁性接着材料は共通して利用することができるので、様々な接着特性を有する異方導電性の接着剤を製造するにあたって製造効率を向上できてコストも低減できる。 In this case, since the third adhesive layer on which the conductive particles are arranged does not directly contact the adherend, there is no need to select a material according to the adherend. Therefore, even when the adhesive is adhered to any adherend, only the adhesive properties of the first and second adhesive layers need to be set according to those adherends, and the insulating property of the conductive layer can be reduced. Since the adhesive material can be used in common, production efficiency can be improved and cost can be reduced in producing anisotropically conductive adhesives having various adhesive properties.

 また、厚さが厚い方の電極端子に、層が厚く形成された第2接着層が接し、薄い方の電極端子には、層が薄く形成された第1接着層が接しているため、導電性粒子を含む層が電極端子により、押し出されるのを防ぎ、電極端子間の確実な導通を得ることができる。 Further, since the thicker electrode terminal is in contact with the second adhesive layer having a thicker layer, and the thinner electrode terminal is in contact with the first adhesive layer having a thinner layer. The layer containing the conductive particles can be prevented from being pushed out by the electrode terminals, and reliable conduction between the electrode terminals can be obtained.

 第1及び第2の接着層の接着特性を調整する具体的な手段としては、
(1)δ第1の接着層中の絶縁性接着材料の主成分と第2の接着層中の絶縁性接着材料の主成分を異なったものとする
(2)第1の接着層及び第2の接着層とに異なるカップリング剤を添加する
(3)絶縁性接着材料の主成分並びに添加するカップリング剤を第1の接着層と第2の接着層とで異なるものを利用する
等が考えられるが、第1の接着層と第2の接着層とで同一の絶縁性接着材料を用い、そして第1の接着層には第1の被接着物に応じた第1のカップリング剤を添加し、第2の接着層には第2の被接着物に応じた第2のカップリング剤を添加すれば、カップリング剤の種類を変えるだけで接着剤の特性を変化させることができるので、使用する絶縁性接着材料の種類を少なくでき、製造効率を向上できてコストも低減できる。
Specific means for adjusting the adhesive properties of the first and second adhesive layers include:
(1) The main component of the insulating adhesive material in the first adhesive layer is different from the main component of the insulating adhesive material in the second adhesive layer. (2) The first adhesive layer and the second (3) A different coupling agent may be added to the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer as a main component of the insulating adhesive material and a different coupling agent to be added. However, the same insulating adhesive material is used for the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer, and a first coupling agent corresponding to the first adherend is added to the first adhesive layer. If the second coupling agent is added to the second adhesive layer according to the second adherend, the characteristics of the adhesive can be changed only by changing the type of the coupling agent. The types of insulating adhesive materials used can be reduced, the production efficiency can be improved, and the cost can be reduced.

 また、本発明の液晶装置は、液晶を挟持する一対の基板と、前記一対の基板うち一方の基板に接着される回路基板とを有する液晶装置において、前記一方の基板に形成された第1電極端子、及び前記回路基板に形成された第2電極端子を有し、前記第1電極端子の前記一方の基板の表面からの厚さは前記第2電極端子の前記回路基板の表面からの厚さより薄く、前記接着剤は、第1接着層と第2接着層とが積層されてなり、前記第1接着層は導電性粒子を含んでなり、前記第1接着層の厚さは前記導電性粒子の直径より厚く、前記第1接着層は、前記一方の基板に対する接着力が前記第2接着層よりも高く、前記第2接着層は、前記回路基板に対する接着力が前記第1接着層よりも高く、前記第1接着層は前記一方の基板と接着しており、前記第2接着層は、前記回路基板と接着していること、を特徴とする。 Further, a liquid crystal device according to the present invention is a liquid crystal device having a pair of substrates for sandwiching liquid crystal and a circuit board adhered to one of the pair of substrates, wherein the first electrode formed on the one substrate is provided. A terminal, and a second electrode terminal formed on the circuit board, wherein the thickness of the first electrode terminal from the surface of the one substrate is greater than the thickness of the second electrode terminal from the surface of the circuit board. The adhesive is thin, a first adhesive layer and a second adhesive layer are laminated, the first adhesive layer includes conductive particles, and the thickness of the first adhesive layer is the conductive particles. Thicker than the diameter of the first adhesive layer, the first adhesive layer has a higher adhesive force to the one substrate than the second adhesive layer, and the second adhesive layer has an adhesive force to the circuit board higher than the first adhesive layer. High, said first adhesive layer is adhered to said one substrate, Serial second adhesive layer, it is bonded to the circuit board, and wherein.

 本発明の液晶装置によれば、液晶パネル用基板(主にガラス基板)と、回路基板(主に高分子基板)との接続に、それぞれの基板に応じた接着特性を有する複数の接着層がある接着剤を用いる。その結果、双方の基板の接着力が均一に強固なものなり、液晶装置の接続信頼性が向上する。 According to the liquid crystal device of the present invention, a plurality of adhesive layers having adhesive characteristics according to each substrate are used for connection between a liquid crystal panel substrate (mainly a glass substrate) and a circuit substrate (mainly a polymer substrate). Use some adhesive. As a result, the adhesive strength between the two substrates becomes uniform and strong, and the connection reliability of the liquid crystal device is improved.

 一般的に、液晶パネル基板と外部回路基板との接続は圧着により行う。この圧着の際には、電極端子によって接着剤が押し出され、そして流出する。当然のことながら、電極端子の厚みが厚い電極端子によって押し出される接着剤の量の方が、厚みが薄い電極端子によって押し出される接着剤の量より多い。液晶パネル基板と外部回路基板との間で確実な電気的接続を行うためには、導電粒子の流出をなくすことが好ましい。本発明においては、導電粒子が混入された第1の層と、電極端子厚みが薄い電極端子が形成された基板とを接しさせるため、圧着の際の導電粒子の流出を防止することができる。 Generally, the connection between the liquid crystal panel substrate and the external circuit board is performed by crimping. During this crimping, the adhesive is pushed out by the electrode terminals and flows out. As a matter of course, the amount of the adhesive extruded by the electrode terminal having the thick electrode terminal is larger than the amount of the adhesive extruded by the electrode terminal having the small thickness. In order to make a reliable electrical connection between the liquid crystal panel substrate and the external circuit substrate, it is preferable to prevent outflow of the conductive particles. In the present invention, the first layer in which the conductive particles are mixed is brought into contact with the substrate on which the electrode terminals having a small electrode terminal thickness are formed, so that the conductive particles can be prevented from flowing out during crimping.

 また、本発明の液晶装置は、液晶を挟持する一対の基板と、前記一対の基板うち一方の基板に接着される半導体素子とを有する液晶装置において、前記一方の基板に形成された第1電極端子、及び前記半導体素子に形成された第2電極端子を有し、前記第1電極端子の前記一方の基板の表面からの厚さは前記第2電極端子の前記半導体素子の表面からの厚さより薄く、前記接着剤は、第1接着層と第2接着層とが積層されてなり、前記第1接着層は導電性粒子を含んでなり、前記第1接着層の厚さは前記導電性粒子の直径より厚く、前記第1接着層は、前記一方の基板に対する接着力が前記第2接着層よりも高く、前記第2接着層は、前記半導体素子に対する接着力が前記第1接着層よりも高く、前記第1接着層は前記一方の基板と接着しており、前記第2接着層は、前記半導体素子と接着していること、を特徴とする。 Further, a liquid crystal device according to the present invention is a liquid crystal device having a pair of substrates sandwiching liquid crystal, and a semiconductor element adhered to one of the pair of substrates, wherein the first electrode formed on the one substrate is provided. A terminal, and a second electrode terminal formed on the semiconductor element, wherein the thickness of the first electrode terminal from the surface of the one substrate is greater than the thickness of the second electrode terminal from the surface of the semiconductor element. The adhesive is thin, a first adhesive layer and a second adhesive layer are laminated, the first adhesive layer includes conductive particles, and the thickness of the first adhesive layer is the conductive particles. Thicker than the diameter of the first adhesive layer, the first adhesive layer has a higher adhesive force to the one substrate than the second adhesive layer, and the second adhesive layer has an adhesive force to the semiconductor element higher than the first adhesive layer. High, said first adhesive layer adheres to said one substrate Cage, the second adhesive layer, it is bonded to the semiconductor element, characterized by.

 本発明によれば、液晶パネル基板上に半導体素子を直接実装するいわゆるCOG(Chip on Glass)方式の液晶装置において、液晶パネル基板と半導体素子との接続を強固なものにすることができる。 According to the present invention, in a so-called COG (Chip on Glass) type liquid crystal device in which a semiconductor element is directly mounted on a liquid crystal panel substrate, the connection between the liquid crystal panel substrate and the semiconductor element can be strengthened.

 一般的には、液晶パネル基板に形成された電極端子は透明導電膜(ITO)であり、回路基板あるいは半導体素子に形成された電極端子は金属膜である場合が多く、その場合においては、第1の接着層は液晶パネル基板と接し、第2の接着層は前記回路基板と接しさせるとよい。なぜならば、通常、ITOは金属膜より薄く形成されるからである。 Generally, an electrode terminal formed on a liquid crystal panel substrate is a transparent conductive film (ITO), and an electrode terminal formed on a circuit board or a semiconductor element is often a metal film. The first adhesive layer may be in contact with the liquid crystal panel substrate, and the second adhesive layer may be in contact with the circuit board. This is because ITO is usually formed thinner than a metal film.

 本発明の電子機器は、上述した液晶装置を表示部として備え、且つ前記表示部が収納される筐体を備えることを特徴とする。本発明の電子機器とは、例えば、携帯電話、腕時計、ノートパソコンなどであり、液晶装置と外部回路又は半導体素子との接着に本発明の接着剤を用いているので、液晶パネルと外部回路又は半導体素子の接着力を向上でき、液晶装置や電子機器の不良品の発生率を低減できて製造コストも低減することができる。 The electronic apparatus of the present invention includes the above-described liquid crystal device as a display unit, and includes a housing in which the display unit is housed. The electronic device of the present invention is, for example, a mobile phone, a wristwatch, or a notebook computer, and uses the adhesive of the present invention for bonding a liquid crystal device to an external circuit or a semiconductor element. The adhesive strength of a semiconductor element can be improved, the incidence of defective products in liquid crystal devices and electronic devices can be reduced, and manufacturing costs can be reduced.

 導電粒子3は、半田粒子、Ni、Au、Ag、Cu、Pb、Sn等の単独の金属粒子や、複数の金属の混合物、合金、メッキなどによる複合金属粒子でもよいし、プラスチック粒子(ポリスチレン系、ポリカーボネート系、アクリル系、ジベニルベンゼン系樹脂)にNi、Au、Cu、Fe等の単独または複数のメッキをした粒子やカーボン粒子などでもよい。 The conductive particles 3 may be solder particles, single metal particles such as Ni, Au, Ag, Cu, Pb, and Sn, composite metal particles formed by a mixture of a plurality of metals, an alloy, plating, or the like, or plastic particles (polystyrene-based). , A polycarbonate-based resin, an acrylic-based resin, a dibenylbenzene-based resin), a single particle or a plurality of particles of Ni, Au, Cu, Fe, or the like, or carbon particles.

 また、第1の接着層4と第2の接着層5とには、各接着層4,5が接着される被接着物との接着力が高い絶縁性接着材料が主成分として用いられている。 In addition, the first adhesive layer 4 and the second adhesive layer 5 are mainly composed of an insulating adhesive material having a high adhesive strength to an object to which the adhesive layers 4 and 5 are adhered. .

 例えば、図2に示すように、接着剤1が、液晶パネルのガラス基板11上に設けられた電極端子12と、TCP13の電極端子14との間に配置される場合、第1の接着層4は、ガラス基板11およびITO等からなる端子12との接着力が高い絶縁性接着材料を主成分とし、第2の接着層5は、ポリイミド製のTCP13および銅の表面に錫メッキを施した電極端子14との接着力が高い絶縁性接着材料を主成分として用いている。 For example, as shown in FIG. 2, when the adhesive 1 is disposed between the electrode terminal 12 provided on the glass substrate 11 of the liquid crystal panel and the electrode terminal 14 of the TCP 13, the first adhesive layer 4 Is mainly composed of an insulating adhesive material having a high adhesive strength to a glass substrate 11 and a terminal 12 made of ITO or the like. The second adhesive layer 5 is made of a TCP 13 made of polyimide and an electrode made of tin-plated copper. An insulating adhesive material having a high adhesive strength to the terminal 14 is used as a main component.

 なお、第1の接着層4は、ガラス基板11および電極端子12に接着されるが、より接着面積が大きいのはガラス基板11との接着であるから、ガラス基板11との接着力がより大きくなるような絶縁性接着材料を主成分として用いてもよい。 The first adhesive layer 4 is adhered to the glass substrate 11 and the electrode terminals 12. Since the larger adhesion area is due to the adhesion with the glass substrate 11, the adhesive strength with the glass substrate 11 is larger. Such an insulating adhesive material may be used as a main component.

 同様に、第2の接着層5も、接着面積が大きなTCP13(ポリイミド製)との接着力がより大きくなるような絶縁性接着材料を主成分として用いてもよい。 Similarly, the second adhesive layer 5 may also use, as a main component, an insulating adhesive material having a larger adhesive strength with TCP 13 (made of polyimide) having a large adhesive area.

 各接着層4,5の主成分として用いられる絶縁性接着材料は、具体的には、スチレンブタジエンスチレン(SBS)系、エポキシ系、アクリル系、ポリエステル系、ウレタン系等の単独または複数の混合物もしくは化合物等である。この際、各接着層4,5の主成分として、異なる種類の絶縁性接着材料を用いてもよいが、本実施形態では同じ種類の絶縁性接着材料を用い、添加するカップリング剤の種類を変えて接着特性を変えている。 The insulating adhesive material used as a main component of each of the adhesive layers 4 and 5 may be, for example, a styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) -based, an epoxy-based, an acrylic-based, a polyester-based, or a urethane-based single or a plurality of mixtures or And the like. At this time, different types of insulating adhesive materials may be used as main components of the adhesive layers 4 and 5, but in the present embodiment, the same type of insulating adhesive material is used, and the type of coupling agent to be added is changed. Change the adhesive properties.

 接着層4に用いる具体的なカップリング剤としては、ジメチルジメトキシシラン、γ−アミノプロピルトリエトキシシラン等が上げられるが、官能基としてメトキシ基又はエトキシ基を多く含むカップリング剤であればガラスとの接着強度を高めることができる。 Specific coupling agents used for the adhesive layer 4 include dimethyldimethoxysilane, γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, and the like. However, if the coupling agent contains a large number of methoxy groups or ethoxy groups as functional groups, the coupling agent may be glass. Adhesive strength can be increased.

 また、接着層5に用いる具体的なカップリング剤としては、N−β(アミノエチル)γ−アミノプロピルトリメトキシシラン、γグリシドキプロピルトリメトキシシラン等が上げられるが、官能基としてアミノ基、エポキシ基を多く含むカップリング剤であればポリイミドとの接着強度を高めることができる。 Specific examples of the coupling agent used for the adhesive layer 5 include N-β (aminoethyl) γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, and the like. If the coupling agent contains a large amount of epoxy groups, the adhesive strength with polyimide can be increased.

 このような構成の接着剤1は、例えば、導電粒子3が配合された第1の接着層4を、製造用ベース板やセパレータ上に積層し、その上に、第2の接着層5を積層することなどで製造される。 In the adhesive 1 having such a configuration, for example, a first adhesive layer 4 containing conductive particles 3 is laminated on a base plate or a separator for production, and a second adhesive layer 5 is laminated thereon. It is manufactured by doing.

 このように構成された接着剤1は、図2に示すように、液晶パネルのガラス基板11と、TCP13との間に配置される。そして、各電極端子12,14を熱圧着などによって接着剤1側に押し込み、各電極端子12,14間に導電粒子3を介在させて導通するとともに、各接着層4,5でガラス基板11およびTCP13とを接着する。 The adhesive 1 configured as described above is disposed between the glass substrate 11 of the liquid crystal panel and the TCP 13 as shown in FIG. Then, the respective electrode terminals 12 and 14 are pressed into the adhesive 1 side by thermocompression bonding or the like, and the conductive particles 3 are interposed between the respective electrode terminals 12 and 14 to conduct electricity. Adhere to TCP13.

 このような手順により、図3に示すように、液晶パネル10と、液晶ドライバIC15が搭載されたTCP13とが接着剤1で接着された液晶装置100が構成される。
この液晶装置100は、各種の電子機器の筐体に組み込まれて利用される。例えば、図5に示す携帯電話200の筐体201内に組み込まれるか、あるいは図6に示すノートパソコン300の筐体301内に組み込まれて利用される。
According to such a procedure, as shown in FIG. 3, the liquid crystal device 100 in which the liquid crystal panel 10 and the TCP 13 on which the liquid crystal driver IC 15 is mounted is bonded with the adhesive 1 is configured.
The liquid crystal device 100 is used by being incorporated in housings of various electronic devices. For example, it is incorporated in the housing 201 of the mobile phone 200 shown in FIG. 5 or used in the housing 301 of the notebook computer 300 shown in FIG.

 このような第1実施形態においては、次のような効果がある。
 第1および第2の2種類の接着層4,5を積層して接着剤1を構成したので、ガラス基板11や電極端子12に接着される第1の接着層4をこれらのガラス基板11などとの接着力が高い種類の接着層とし、TCP13や端子14に接着される第2の接着層5をこれらのTCP13などとの接着力が高い種類の接着層で構成することができる。このため、従来のように、1種類の接着層でガラス基板11、TCP13を接着させる場合に比べて、各被接着物11,13との接着力を向上でき、接着特性に優れた接着剤1とすることができる。
The first embodiment has the following effects.
Since the adhesive 1 is formed by laminating the first and second two types of adhesive layers 4 and 5, the first adhesive layer 4 bonded to the glass substrate 11 and the electrode terminals 12 is replaced with the glass substrate 11 or the like. And the second adhesive layer 5 to be bonded to the TCP 13 and the terminal 14 can be formed of a type of adhesive layer having a high adhesive strength to the TCP 13 and the like. For this reason, compared to the case where the glass substrate 11 and the TCP 13 are adhered by one kind of adhesive layer as in the related art, the adhesive 1 having the excellent adhesive property can be improved in the adhesive force with the adherends 11 and 13. It can be.

 導電粒子3は、第1の接着層4のみに含まれているので、各接着層4,5の両方に導電粒子3を配置する場合に比べて、導電粒子3の数や配置を管理しやすく、容易に製造することができる。また、各接着層4,5の接着特性を変えるにあたって、絶縁性接着材料の種類を変えずに添加するカップリング剤の種類を変えているので、各接着層4,5の接着特性を低コストでかつ容易に設定することができる。 Since the conductive particles 3 are contained only in the first adhesive layer 4, the number and arrangement of the conductive particles 3 are easier to manage than in the case where the conductive particles 3 are arranged on both of the adhesive layers 4 and 5. , Can be easily manufactured. Further, since the type of coupling agent to be added is changed without changing the type of insulating adhesive material when changing the adhesive characteristics of each of the adhesive layers 4 and 5, the adhesive characteristics of each of the adhesive layers 4 and 5 can be reduced. And can be easily set.

 また、一般的に、ガラス基板11とTCP13との接着は圧着により行う。この圧着の際には、電極端子によって接着剤が押し出され、そして流出する。当然のことながら、電極端子の厚みが厚い電極端子によって押し出される接着剤の量の方が、厚みが薄い電極端子によって押し出される接着剤の量より多い。ガラス基板11とTCP13との間で確実な電気的接続を行うためには、導電性粒子3の流出をなくすことが好ましい。本発明においては、導電性粒子3が混入された第1接着層4と、厚さが薄い方の電極端子12が形成されたガラス基板11とを接しさせるため、圧着の際の導電性粒子3の流出を防止することができる。 接着 Generally, the bonding between the glass substrate 11 and the TCP 13 is performed by pressure bonding. During this crimping, the adhesive is pushed out by the electrode terminals and flows out. As a matter of course, the amount of the adhesive extruded by the electrode terminal having the thick electrode terminal is larger than the amount of the adhesive extruded by the electrode terminal having the small thickness. In order to make reliable electrical connection between the glass substrate 11 and the TCP 13, it is preferable to prevent the conductive particles 3 from flowing out. In the present invention, since the first adhesive layer 4 into which the conductive particles 3 are mixed is brought into contact with the glass substrate 11 on which the electrode terminal 12 having a smaller thickness is formed, the conductive particles 3 at the time of pressure bonding are brought into contact. Outflow can be prevented.

 次に、本発明の第2実施形態について、図6,7を参照して説明する。なお、本実施形態において、前記第1実施形態と同一または同様の構成部分には同一符号を付し、説明を省略あるいは簡略する。 Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the present embodiment, the same or similar components as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description is omitted or simplified.

 第2実施形態の接着構造に用いる接着剤1(異方導電性接着剤)は、複数の導電粒子3が配置された導電層4と、この導電層4の下に積層された第1の接着層6と、導電層4の上に積層された第1の接着層5とを備えている。 The adhesive 1 (anisotropic conductive adhesive) used in the bonding structure of the second embodiment includes a conductive layer 4 on which a plurality of conductive particles 3 are arranged, and a first bonding layer laminated below the conductive layer 4. It has a layer 6 and a first adhesive layer 5 laminated on the conductive layer 4.

 ここで、導電層7は、導電粒子3を配合しやすい接着剤で構成され、また、導電粒子3が膜厚方向には一列(一層)となるように比較的薄く形成されている。導電粒子が一層であれば、接着時に端子間に移動する導電粒子の良も少なくなり、端子間がショートする可能性も更に低下する。 Here, the conductive layer 7 is made of an adhesive that easily mixes the conductive particles 3, and is formed relatively thin so that the conductive particles 3 are arranged in a line (one layer) in the film thickness direction. If the number of conductive particles is one, the amount of the conductive particles that move between the terminals at the time of bonding decreases, and the possibility of short-circuit between the terminals further decreases.

 また、第1および第2の接着層6,5は、前記第1実施形態における接着層4,5と同様に、各接着層6,5が接着される被接着物との接着力が高い接着層で構成されている。
例えば、図7に示すように、接着剤1が、液晶パネルのガラス基板11上に設けられた電極端子12と、IC21の端子(バンプ)22との間に配置される場合、第1の接着層6は、ガラス基板11およびITO等からなる電極端子12との接着力が高い接着層が用いられ、第2の接着層5は、セラミックなどからなるIC21のパッケージおよび金メッキを施した端子22との接着力が高い接着層が用いられる。
Further, the first and second adhesive layers 6 and 5 are, like the adhesive layers 4 and 5 in the first embodiment, bonded to each other with a high adhesive strength to the adherend to which the adhesive layers 6 and 5 are bonded. It is composed of layers.
For example, as shown in FIG. 7, when the adhesive 1 is disposed between the electrode terminal 12 provided on the glass substrate 11 of the liquid crystal panel and the terminal (bump) 22 of the IC 21, the first adhesive As the layer 6, an adhesive layer having a high adhesive strength to the glass substrate 11 and the electrode terminal 12 made of ITO or the like is used. An adhesive layer having a high adhesive strength is used.

 なお、本実施形態においても、第1の接着層6は、ガラス基板11との接着面積が大きいから、ガラス基板11との接着力がより大きくなるような接着層を用いてもよいし、第2の接着層5も、接着面積が大きなIC21との接着力がより大きくなるような接着層を用いてもよい。なお、各接着層6、5及び導電層4に主成分として用いる絶縁性接着材料は、前記第1実施形態と同様であり、添加するカップリング剤の種類を変えて接着特性を変化させている。 Also in the present embodiment, since the first adhesive layer 6 has a large adhesive area with the glass substrate 11, an adhesive layer having a larger adhesive strength with the glass substrate 11 may be used. The second adhesive layer 5 may also use an adhesive layer having a larger adhesive strength with the IC 21 having a larger adhesive area. The insulating adhesive material used as a main component for each of the adhesive layers 6, 5 and the conductive layer 4 is the same as in the first embodiment, and the type of the coupling agent to be added is changed to change the adhesive characteristics. .

 このような構成の接着剤1は、例えば、第1の接着層6を、製造用ベース板やセパレータ上に積層し、その上に、導電粒子3が配合された導電層4および第2の接着層5を順次積層することなどで製造される。 The adhesive 1 having such a configuration is obtained, for example, by laminating a first adhesive layer 6 on a base plate or a separator for production, and further forming a conductive layer 4 containing conductive particles 3 thereon and a second adhesive layer. It is manufactured by sequentially laminating the layers 5.

 このように構成された接着剤1は、図7に示すように、液晶パネルのガラス基板11と、IC21との間に配置される。そして、各電極端子12,22を熱圧着などによって接着剤1側に押し込み、各端子12,22間に導電粒子3を介在させて導通するとともに、各接着層6,5でガラス基板11およびIC21を接着する。また、IC21に信号を入力するために、IC21の入力端子に接続されている電極端子12にフレキシブル基板を接続するが、そのフレキシブル基板とガラス基板上の電極端子12との接続には、第1の実施形態で示した接着剤を用いるのが好ましい。 The adhesive 1 configured as described above is disposed between the glass substrate 11 of the liquid crystal panel and the IC 21 as shown in FIG. Then, the respective electrode terminals 12 and 22 are pressed into the adhesive 1 by thermocompression bonding or the like, and the conductive particles 3 are interposed between the respective terminals 12 and 22 to conduct electricity. Glue. Further, in order to input a signal to the IC 21, a flexible substrate is connected to the electrode terminal 12 connected to the input terminal of the IC 21, and the connection between the flexible substrate and the electrode terminal 12 on the glass substrate is performed by the first method. It is preferable to use the adhesive described in the embodiment.

 このような実施例2においても、前記実施例1と同様の効果がある。
すなわち、第1の接着層6、第2の接着層5及び導電層4の3つの層を積層して接着剤1を構成したので、ガラス基板11や電極端子12に接着される第1の接着層6をこれらのガラス基板11などとの接着力が高い種類の接着層とし、IC21や電極端子22に接着される第2の接着層5をこれらのIC21などとの接着力が高い種類の接着層で構成することができる。このため、従来のように、1種類の接着層でガラス基板11、IC21と接着させる場合に比べて、各被接着物との接着力を向上でき、接着特性に優れた接着剤1とすることができる。
The second embodiment has the same effect as the first embodiment.
That is, since the first adhesive layer 6, the second adhesive layer 5, and the conductive layer 4 are laminated to form the adhesive 1, the first adhesive bonded to the glass substrate 11 and the electrode terminals 12 is formed. The layer 6 is an adhesive layer having a high adhesive strength to the glass substrate 11 or the like, and the second adhesive layer 5 bonded to the IC 21 or the electrode terminal 22 is an adhesive layer having a high adhesive strength to the IC 21 or the like. It can be composed of layers. For this reason, compared with the case where the glass substrate 11 and the IC 21 are bonded to each other with a single type of bonding layer as in the related art, it is possible to improve the adhesive force with each of the objects to be bonded and to provide the adhesive 1 having excellent bonding characteristics. Can be.

 導電粒子3は、導電層4のみに含まれているので、接着層6、5及び導電層4に導電粒子3を配置する場合に比べて、導電粒子3の数や配置を管理しやすく、容易に製造することができる。 Since the conductive particles 3 are included only in the conductive layer 4, the number and arrangement of the conductive particles 3 are easier to manage and easier than when the conductive particles 3 are arranged on the adhesive layers 6, 5 and the conductive layer 4. Can be manufactured.

 第1、第2の接着層6,5は、導電粒子3が配置されないため、膜厚を任意に形成できる。本発明においては第1接着層6の厚さを第2接着層5の厚さに比べて薄く形成している。これによって、第1実施形態と同様に第1接着層6と、厚さが薄い方の電極端子12が形成されたガラス基板11とを接しさせることができ、圧着の際の導電性粒子3の流出を防止することができる。 1 The first and second adhesive layers 6 and 5 can be formed arbitrarily in thickness because the conductive particles 3 are not arranged. In the present invention, the thickness of the first adhesive layer 6 is formed smaller than the thickness of the second adhesive layer 5. As a result, the first adhesive layer 6 can be brought into contact with the glass substrate 11 on which the thinner electrode terminal 12 is formed, similarly to the first embodiment, and the conductive particles 3 can be contacted at the time of pressure bonding. Outflow can be prevented.

 各接着層6,5の接着特性は、添加するカップリング剤の種類で変化させているので、各接着層6,5の接着特性を低コストでかつ容易に設定することができる。 (4) Since the adhesive properties of the adhesive layers 6 and 5 are changed depending on the type of the coupling agent to be added, the adhesive properties of the adhesive layers 6 and 5 can be easily set at low cost.

 さらに、第2実施形態によれば、導電粒子3が含まれる導電層4は,接着剤1の中間に配置されて被接着物に直接接触しないため、被接着物11,21に合わせて材質を選定する必要がない。このため、接着剤1がどのような被接着物に接着される場合でも、それらの被接着物に応じて第1の接着層6及び第2の接着層5を設定すればよく、導電層4は共通して利用することができるので、様々な接着特性を有する接着剤1を製造するにあたって、製造効率を向上できてコストも低減できる。 Further, according to the second embodiment, since the conductive layer 4 containing the conductive particles 3 is disposed in the middle of the adhesive 1 and does not directly contact the adherend, the material is adjusted according to the adherends 11 and 21. There is no need to select. Therefore, even when the adhesive 1 is adhered to any adherend, the first adhesive layer 6 and the second adhesive layer 5 may be set according to the adherend, and the conductive layer 4 Can be used in common, so that in manufacturing the adhesive 1 having various adhesive properties, the manufacturing efficiency can be improved and the cost can be reduced.

 導電粒子3は、接着剤1の膜厚方向には1列(一層)となるように配置されているため、各電極端子12,22間に介在される導電粒子3の数は、各電極端子12,22の接続面の面積と、導電粒子3の単位面積当たりの散布数とで容易に管理でき、各電極端子12,22間に介在される導電粒子3の数、つまり導通性能を高精度に調整、設定することができる。 Since the conductive particles 3 are arranged in one row (one layer) in the thickness direction of the adhesive 1, the number of the conductive particles 3 interposed between the electrode terminals 12 and 22 is The number of conductive particles 3 interposed between the electrode terminals 12 and 22, that is, the conductive performance, can be easily controlled by the area of the connection surface of the conductive particles 12 and 22 and the number of the conductive particles 3 sprayed per unit area. Can be adjusted and set.

 なお、本発明は前述の各実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の目的を達成できる範囲での変形、改良等は本発明に含まれるものである。 The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, but includes modifications and improvements as long as the object of the present invention can be achieved.

 例えば、前記各実施形態では、導電粒子3は、第1実施形態における第1の接着層又は第2実施形態における導電層4のみに含まれていたが、他の層、例えば第1の実施形態における第2の接着層5や第2の接着層5にも含ませる、又は、第1の実施形態における第1の接着層4又は第2の実施形態における導電層4には導電粒子を含ませず、他の層、例えば第1の実施形態における第2の接着層5や第2の接着層5のみに導電粒子を含ませる、といった構成を採用しても、接着強度という点においては第1又は第2に実施形態と同様の効果を得ることができる。 For example, in each of the above embodiments, the conductive particles 3 are included only in the first adhesive layer in the first embodiment or the conductive layer 4 in the second embodiment. However, other layers, for example, the first embodiment. In the second adhesive layer 5 or the second adhesive layer 5 in the first embodiment, or the first adhesive layer 4 in the first embodiment or the conductive layer 4 in the second embodiment contains conductive particles. However, even if another layer, for example, the second adhesive layer 5 in the first embodiment or a configuration in which only the second adhesive layer 5 contains conductive particles is employed, the first adhesive is not sufficient in terms of adhesive strength. Or, secondly, the same effect as in the embodiment can be obtained.

 また、導電粒子3は、図1に示すように、膜厚が比較的厚い接着剤層に均一に配置してもよいし、図6に示すように、膜厚が比較的薄い接着剤層に膜厚方向には1〜2列程度となるように配置してもよい。 In addition, the conductive particles 3 may be uniformly arranged on an adhesive layer having a relatively large film thickness as shown in FIG. 1 or may be arranged on an adhesive layer having a relatively thin film thickness as shown in FIG. You may arrange so that it may become about 1-2 rows in a film thickness direction.

 さらに、接着剤1としては、4層以上の積層構造を有するものでもよい。この場合には、ガラス基板11やTCP13、IC21に接着される接着剤のほかに、各電極端子12,14,22に接着される接着層を別途設けて、各々の接着層を被接着物12,14,22に適したものを利用することができ、接着剤と被接着物との接着力をより一層向上することができる。 Furthermore, the adhesive 1 may have a laminated structure of four or more layers. In this case, in addition to the adhesive bonded to the glass substrate 11, the TCP 13, and the IC 21, an adhesive layer bonded to each of the electrode terminals 12, 14, and 22 is separately provided, and each adhesive layer is bonded to the object 12. , 14, 22 can be used, and the adhesive strength between the adhesive and the adherend can be further improved.

 また、第2実施形態の3層構造の接着剤1を、第1実施形態の液晶パネル用ガラス基板11の電極端子12と、TCP13の電極端子14との導通接続に用いてもよいし、逆に、第1実施形態の2層構造の接着剤1を、第2実施形態のガラス基板11およびIC21の接着に用いてもよい。 Further, the adhesive 1 having a three-layer structure of the second embodiment may be used for conductive connection between the electrode terminal 12 of the glass substrate 11 for a liquid crystal panel of the first embodiment and the electrode terminal 14 of the TCP 13, or vice versa. Alternatively, the adhesive 1 having a two-layer structure of the first embodiment may be used for bonding the glass substrate 11 and the IC 21 of the second embodiment.

 さらに、本発明の接着剤は、液晶パネル用の部品の接着に限らず、各種電気部品同士の導通に広く利用することができる。また、各接着層4、5、6及び導電層4の接着特性を設定するには、カップリング剤を添加する場合に限らず、絶縁性接着材料の主成分の種類自体を変えて設定してもよいし、他の添加物等を適宜加えて設定してもよい。 Further, the adhesive of the present invention can be widely used not only for bonding components for liquid crystal panels but also for conducting various electrical components. In addition, the setting of the adhesive properties of the adhesive layers 4, 5, 6 and the conductive layer 4 is not limited to the case where a coupling agent is added, but by changing the type of the main component of the insulating adhesive material itself. Or may be set by appropriately adding other additives and the like.

 要するに、接着剤1の接着層4、5、6及び導電層4や導電粒子3の材質(絶縁性接着材料の主成分の種類や添加するカップリング剤の種類)、大きさ(膜厚や粒子径)等は、適用する被接着物の種類に応じて適宜設定すればよい。従って、本発明の接着剤1を用いた電子機器としても、携帯電話200やノートパソコン300のように液晶装置100を表示部として備えるものに限らず、液晶装置を備えない各種電子機器にも適用できる。 In short, the material (the type of the main component of the insulating adhesive material and the type of the coupling agent to be added), the size (the film thickness and the particle size) of the adhesive layers 4, 5, 6 of the adhesive 1, the conductive layer 4 and the conductive particles 3. The diameter and the like may be appropriately set according to the type of the adherend to be applied. Therefore, the electronic device using the adhesive 1 of the present invention is not limited to the electronic device including the liquid crystal device 100 as a display unit, such as the mobile phone 200 or the notebook computer 300, but is also applicable to various electronic devices not including a liquid crystal device. it can.
