Description

  The present invention relates to a dicing die bond film. The dicing die-bonding film is used for dicing the work with an adhesive for fixing the chip-like work (semiconductor chip etc.) and the electrode member attached to the work (semiconductor wafer etc.) before dicing. It is done. The present invention also relates to a chip-shaped workpiece fixing method and a semiconductor device manufacturing method using the dicing die-bonding film. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a semiconductor device in which a chip-like workpiece is bonded and fixed by the fixing method or the manufacturing method.

  In the manufacture of a conventional semiconductor device, a silver paste is used for fixing a semiconductor chip to a lead frame or an electrode member. Such a fixing process is performed by applying a paste on a die pad or the like of a lead frame and then mounting a semiconductor chip on the paste pad and curing the paste layer.

  The semiconductor wafer on which the circuit pattern is formed is adjusted in thickness by backside polishing (back grinding process) if necessary, and then diced into semiconductor chips (dicing process), and this semiconductor chip is attached to a lead frame or the like with an adhesive. It was fixed to the body (die attach process), and further a wire bonding process was performed. In the dicing process, the semiconductor wafer is usually washed with an appropriate hydraulic pressure in order to remove cutting waste.

  In this processing step, the method of separately applying the adhesive to the lead frame or the formed chip makes it difficult to make the adhesive layer uniform, and a special apparatus and a long time are required for applying the adhesive. . For this reason, the following Patent Document 1 proposes a dicing die-bonding film that adheres and holds the semiconductor wafer in the dicing process and also provides an adhesive layer for chip fixation necessary for the die attach process.

  This dicing die-bonding film is formed by providing an adhesive layer on a support substrate so that the adhesive layer can be peeled off, and after dicing a semiconductor wafer while being held by the adhesive layer, the support substrate is stretched to form a formed chip. They are peeled off together with the adhesive layer, collected individually, and fixed to an adherend such as a lead frame through the adhesive layer.

  Here, the dicing die-bonding film is required to have a strong adhesive force so that the support substrate and the adhesive layer do not peel when dicing the semiconductor wafer, whereas the semiconductor chip is supported together with the adhesive layer after dicing. There is a demand for easy peeling from a substrate.

  However, it is difficult to adjust the adhesive strength of the adhesive layer when the dicing die-bonding film has the above-described configuration. For this reason, there is disclosed a dicing die-bonding film configured to provide a good balance between tackiness and releasability by providing a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer between a support substrate and an adhesive layer (see below). Patent Document 2).

  By the way, in the dicing process, when a semiconductor wafer having a circuit pattern formed thereon is cut, thread-like waste may be generated from the dicing die bond film and may adhere to the semiconductor chip or the dicing die bond film. In addition, in the next step, the die attach step and the wire bond step, the filamentous waste adheres to an organic substrate, a lead frame, or a semiconductor chip as an adherend, and not only significantly reduces workability. The reliability of semiconductor chips is also lowered, which is a big problem.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a dicing die-bonding film that suppresses the generation of filamentous waste and prevents the degradation of the quality of a semiconductor chip, and a method for fixing a chip-like workpiece using the same. An object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device obtained by the method and a manufacturing method thereof.

  As a result of investigations to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present inventors have found that the generation of filamentous waste is caused by the cutting of the support substrate by the dicing blade, and the present invention is completed by adopting the following configuration. It came to.

That is, the dicing die-bonding film according to the present invention is a dicing die-bonding film in which a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and a die-bonding adhesive layer are sequentially laminated on a supporting substrate in order to solve the above-described problems, The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer has a thickness of 10 to 80 μm and a storage elastic modulus at 23 ° C. of 1 × 10 ⁴ to 1 × 10 ¹⁰ Pa.

In the invention having the above configuration, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer has a thickness of 10 to 80 μm, and the storage elastic modulus at 23 ° C. of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is within a range of 1 × 10 ⁴ to 1 × 10 ¹⁰ Pa. The elastic component (that is, hardness) of the agent layer is set within a predetermined range. That is, by making it within the above numerical value range, the cutting depth at the time of dicing is kept by the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and the support substrate is prevented from being diced. As a result, the generation of filamentous waste can be prevented. When the storage elastic modulus is less than 1 × 10 ⁴ Pa, for example, when the workpiece is diced, the workpiece may move due to vibration. However, by making it within the numerical range, it is possible to suppress this, and as a result, so-called chipping can be reduced, in which a part of the workpiece formed as a chip is damaged. Furthermore, when the storage elastic modulus exceeds 1 × 10 ¹⁰ Pa, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer may be insufficient in adhesive strength with respect to the die-bonding adhesive layer. However, if the value is within the above numerical range, excessive reduction of the adhesive force can be suppressed, and as a result, the work can be securely fixed on the dicing die-bonding film, and the occurrence of chip jumping and misalignment during dicing can be suppressed.

  The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is preferably a radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

  It is preferable that the numerical value range of the storage elastic modulus in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is satisfied at least in a portion corresponding to a work pasting portion on the die-bonding adhesive layer.

  It is an interface between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the die bonding adhesive layer, and the peelability of the interface corresponding to the work pasting portion is more than the peelability of the interface corresponding to a part or all of the other portions. Larger is preferred.

  The interfacial peelability relationship is the adhesive force of the adhesive layer to the adhesive layer for die bonding, and the adhesive force of the part corresponding to the work pasting part is part or all of the other part. It is obtained by setting it as the structure smaller than the adhesive force of the part corresponding to.

  In the part corresponding to part or all of the part other than the work pasting part, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the die bonding adhesive are compared with the part corresponding to the work pasting part. Make sure the layer is properly bonded. As a result, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the die-bonding adhesive layer can be prevented from being easily peeled off even during dicing or expanding, for example. On the other hand, in the part corresponding to the work pasting part, light peeling is possible as compared with other parts. For this reason, for example, a chip-shaped workpiece obtained after dicing can be easily peeled off without causing a dicing defect even for a large chip exceeding 10 mm × 10 mm, and a dicing die-bonding film excellent in pick-up property can be obtained. That is, the said structure balances the holding force in the case of dicing etc. and the peelability in the case of pick-up moderately.

  It is the adhesive strength of the adhesive layer for die bonding, and it is preferable that the adhesive strength to the workpiece at the workpiece pasting portion is larger than the adhesive strength to the adhesive layer at a portion corresponding to the workpiece pasting portion. .

  With the above configuration, for example, when picking up a chip-shaped workpiece obtained by dicing the workpiece, the chip-shaped workpiece is peeled off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer with a die-bonding adhesive layer attached thereto. make it easier.

  It is preferable that a part of the portion other than the workpiece pasting portion is a dicing ring pasting portion.

  The adhesive strength of the adhesive layer for die bonding, wherein the adhesive strength to the dicing ring at the portion where the dicing ring is attached is smaller than the adhesive strength to the adhesive layer at the portion corresponding to the portion where the dicing ring is attached. It is preferable.

  With the above configuration, the dicing ring can be easily peeled off from the die bonding adhesive layer, and the dicing ring is prevented from peeling off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer in a state where the die bonding adhesive layer is adhered to the dicing ring. .

  The die bonding adhesive layer is provided as a work pasting portion on a part of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer, and the adhesive strength of the portion corresponding to the work pasting portion in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is It is preferable that it is smaller than the adhesive force of other parts.

  As a result, even when the die-bonding adhesive layer is provided as a work pasting portion on a part of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, when the chip-shaped work is picked up, the chip-shaped work Can be easily peeled from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer with the die-bonding adhesive layer attached thereto.

  It is the adhesive strength of the adhesive layer for die bonding, and it is preferable that the adhesive strength to the workpiece at the workpiece pasting portion is larger than the adhesive strength to the adhesive layer at a portion corresponding to the workpiece pasting portion. .

  Thereby, like the above, when picking up a chip-shaped workpiece, the chip-shaped workpiece can be easily peeled off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer with the die-bonding adhesive layer attached thereto.

  It is preferable that the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed of a radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, and a portion corresponding to the work pasting portion is cured by radiation irradiation.

  Further, a chip-shaped workpiece fixing method according to the present invention is a chip-shaped workpiece fixing method using the dicing die-bonding film described above in order to solve the above-described problems, and the die-bonding adhesive A step of pressure-bonding a workpiece on a workpiece-pasting portion of a layer, a step of dicing the workpiece into a chip shape together with the die-bonding adhesive layer, and a step of stopping dicing by the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer; The chip-shaped workpiece is a semiconductor element through the step of peeling from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer together with the workpiece bonding portion of the die bonding adhesive layer and the workpiece bonding portion of the die bonding adhesive layer. And a step of adhering and fixing to.

As a result, it is possible to prevent the generation of filamentous waste generated by cutting the support base material. Further, it is possible to suppress the workpiece from moving due to vibration during dicing. As a result, chipping of the chip workpiece can be reduced. Further, since the adhesive force of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer to the adhesive layer for die-bonding is suppressed, the work is securely fixed on the dicing die-bonding film, and the occurrence of chip jumping and displacement during dicing is reduced.

  Further, in order to solve the above-described problem, the semiconductor device according to the present invention has a chip-shaped workpiece that is bonded to the chip-shaped workpiece via the workpiece bonding portion of the die-bonding adhesive layer by the chip-shaped workpiece fixing method described above. It is characterized by being bonded and fixed to a semiconductor element.

Therefore, the support base material is prevented from being diced, and as a result, the generation of the thread-like waste is prevented. Further, chipping of the chip-like workpiece during dicing can be reduced, and occurrence of chip skipping and deviation can be suppressed.

It is a cross-sectional schematic diagram which shows the further another example of the dicing die-bonding film of this invention. It is a cross-sectional schematic diagram which shows the mode at the time of dicing a workpiece | work into a chip shape.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. However, parts that are not necessary for the description are omitted, and there are parts that are illustrated in an enlarged or reduced manner for ease of explanation.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of the dicing die-bonding film of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the dicing die-bonding film 10 has a configuration in which a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2, a die-bonding adhesive layer 3, and a peelable protective layer 4 are sequentially laminated on a support substrate 1.

  The support substrate 1 is a strength matrix of the dicing die bond film 10. Examples of the supporting substrate 1 include low density polyethylene, linear polyethylene, medium density polyethylene, high density polyethylene, ultra low density polyethylene, random copolymer polypropylene, block copolymer polypropylene, homopolypropylene, polybutene, polymethylpentene, and the like. Polyolefin, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-propylene copolymer, ionomer resin, ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid copolymer, ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid ester (random, alternating) copolymer, ethylene -Butene copolymer, ethylene-hexene copolymer, polyester such as polyurethane, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, polycarbonate, polyimide, polyetheretherketone, polyimide, polyetherimide, polyester Examples include plastic films made of amide, wholly aromatic polyamide, polyphenylsulfide, aramid (paper), glass, glass cloth, fluororesin, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, cellulosic resin, silicone resin, and mixtures thereof. It is done. Moreover, polymers, such as the crosslinked body of the said resin, are mentioned.

  Moreover, as the support base material 1, you may use a non-stretched thing. Furthermore, you may use what gave the uniaxial or biaxial stretching process suitably as needed. When the support substrate 1 is made of a resin sheet imparted with heat shrinkability by stretching or the like, the support substrate 1 is thermally contracted after dicing so that the adhesive layer 2 and the die bonding adhesive layer 3 are bonded. The area can be reduced and the chip-like workpiece can be easily collected.

  The surface of the support substrate 1 may be subjected to a conventional surface treatment in order to improve adhesion, retention and the like with adjacent layers. Examples of the method include chemical treatment or physical treatment such as chromic acid treatment, ozone exposure, flame exposure, high-voltage impact exposure, and ionizing radiation treatment, and coating treatment with a primer (for example, an adhesive substance described later).

  The support substrate 1 can be used by appropriately selecting the same type or different types. Moreover, what blended several types can be used as needed. Further, as the support substrate 1, a conductive material vapor deposition layer having a thickness of about 30 to 500 mm and made of a metal, an alloy, or an oxide thereof is provided on the plastic film in order to impart an antistatic ability. The provided film can also be used. Furthermore, the laminated body which bonded together the said films or another film can also be used. Further, the support substrate 1 may be a single layer or a laminated film obtained by multilayering a film using the above materials into two or more layers. When the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is a radiation curable type, a material that transmits at least a part of radiation such as X-rays, ultraviolet rays, and electron beams is used.

  The adhesive film can also be provided with an antistatic ability for the purpose of preventing the occurrence of static electricity at the time of adhesion or peeling, and the destruction of the circuit due to the charging of the semiconductor wafer. The addition of antistatic ability to the support sheet or pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, addition of a conductive layer made of a charge transfer complex or metal film, etc. to the support sheet, etc. should be carried out in a proper manner. It is preferable to use a system that can hardly generate impurity ions that can alter the quality of the semiconductor wafer.

  The thickness of the support substrate 1 is, for example, about 5 to 200 μm, and is not particularly limited as long as it has a thickness that can withstand the tension caused by the die bonding adhesive layer 3 by the heat shrinkage. In addition, this support base material 1 may permeate | transmit an ultraviolet-ray.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 has a thickness of 10 to 80 μm and physical properties such that the storage elastic modulus at 23 ° C. is 1 × 10 ⁴ to 1 × 10 ¹⁰ Pa. The thickness and the storage elastic modulus at 23 ° C. are within the above-mentioned numerical ranges, and the cutting depth during dicing is limited to the range of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 to prevent reaching the support base material 1. Because. The dicing conditions for the value range of the thickness and the storage elastic modulus of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 to fully exhibit the functions and effects of the present invention are, for example, a dicing speed in the range of 5 to 150 mm / sec, and a dicing blade This is a case where the rotational speed is in the range of 25000 to 50000 rpm.

Further, by setting the storage elastic modulus at 23 ° C. within the above numerical range, it is possible to prevent chipping and to prevent chip jumping and deviation when picking up a chip-like workpiece. The storage modulus is more preferably 1 × 10 ⁷ to 1 × 10 ¹⁰ Pa, and particularly preferably 1 × 10 ⁷ to 1 × 10 ⁹ Pa. When the storage elastic modulus is less than 1 × 10 ⁷ Pa, dicing is easily performed up to the support substrate 1, and the generation of thread-like waste increases. Furthermore, chipping also occurs due to the chip-shaped workpiece being easily moved in the dicing process. On the other hand, if it is higher than 1 × 10 ¹⁰ Pa, chip jumping is likely to occur in the dicing process, and chip jumping and deviation occur when the chip is picked up in the die attach process. Furthermore, the amount of wear of the dicing blade tends to increase and the chipping rate tends to increase.

  Further, the reason why the thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is within the above numerical range is to prevent chipping of the chip cut surface and to maintain and fix the die-bonding adhesive layer 3. As this thickness, More preferably, it is 20-70 micrometers, More preferably, it is 20-60 micrometers, Especially preferably, it is 20-50 micrometers.

  The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is configured to have the following relationship with respect to the peelability from the die-bonding adhesive layer 3 (see FIG. 2). That is, the interface A corresponding to the workpiece bonding portion 3a (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the die bonding adhesive layer 3a) of the die bonding adhesive layer 3 and the other portion 3b (hereinafter referred to as die bonding adhesion). And the interface B corresponding to the agent layer 3b), there is a relationship of the peelability of the interface A> the peelability of the interface B. In order to satisfy this relationship, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 has, for example, a pressure-sensitive adhesive force of a portion 2a (hereinafter sometimes referred to as pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a) corresponding to a workpiece pasting portion 3a (described later) < It is designed to have the adhesive strength of the part 2b (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the adhesive layer 2b) corresponding to the part or the whole.

  The adhesive strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a is based on the adhesive strength at normal temperature (23 ° C.) (90-degree peel value, peeling speed of 300 mm / min), such as fixing and holding power of the wafer and recoverability of the formed chip. Further, it is preferably 0.5N / 20 mm or less, more preferably 0.01 to 0.42 N / 20 mm, and particularly preferably 0.01 to 0.35 N / 20 mm. On the other hand, the adhesive strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b is preferably about 0.5 to 20 N / 20 mm. Even if the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a has a low peel pressure, the pressure-sensitive adhesive force of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b can suppress the occurrence of chip jumping and the like, and can exhibit a sufficient holding power for wafer processing.

  As a method for making the adhesive force different in the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2, for example, use of a radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive can be mentioned. If radiation is partially irradiated to the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 by using a radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, the degree of cross-linking of the polymer compound constituting the irradiation layer can be increased in the irradiated portion. Can be reduced. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a is cured by irradiation with radiation, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive force is remarkably reduced. On the other hand, sufficient adhesive strength is maintained without irradiating the adhesive layer 2b with radiation. Thereby, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 can support the die-bonding adhesive layer 3 with a good balance of adhesion and peeling. That is, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b can be sufficiently bonded to the die-bonding adhesive layer 3, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a can be easily peeled off from the die-bonding adhesive layer 3, thereby improving the pickup property.

  Although it does not restrict | limit especially as an adhesive which comprises the adhesive layer 2, In the present invention, the above-mentioned radiation curing type adhesive is suitable. This is because it is easy to give a difference in the adhesive force between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b. A radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive can easily reduce its adhesive strength by increasing the degree of crosslinking by irradiation with radiation such as ultraviolet rays. Therefore, the adhesive layer 2a corresponding to the work pasting portion 3a can be easily irradiated to the region where the adhesive strength is remarkably reduced by irradiating and curing the adhesive layer 2a. Since the work bonding part 3a of the adhesive layer 3 for die bonding is located on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a that has been cured and has reduced adhesive strength, the interface between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a and the work bonding part 3a is determined at the time of pickup. Easily peels off.

  On the other hand, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b that is not irradiated with radiation includes an uncured radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, and therefore has sufficient adhesive strength. Therefore, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b is securely adhered to the die-bonding adhesive layer 3, and as a result, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 as a whole is sufficiently fixed even during dicing. Retainable holding power can be secured. In this way, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 including the radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive is bonded to a substrate or an adherend such as a chip-shaped work (referred to as a semiconductor element) by die bonding for fixing the chip-shaped work (semiconductor chip or the like). The adhesive layer 3 can be supported with a good balance of adhesion and peeling.

  Although it does not restrict | limit especially as an adhesive which comprises the adhesive layer 2, In this invention, a radiation curing type adhesive is suitable. As the radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, those having a radiation curable functional group such as a carbon-carbon double bond and exhibiting adhesiveness can be used without particular limitation.

  Examples of the radiation curable adhesive include general pressure-sensitive adhesives such as the acrylic adhesive, rubber adhesive, silicone adhesive, and polyvinyl ether adhesive, and radiation curable monomer components and oligomers. An additive-type radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive containing components can be exemplified. As the pressure-sensitive adhesive, an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive having an acrylic polymer as a base polymer from the viewpoint of cleanability with an organic solvent such as ultrapure water or alcohol of an electronic component that is difficult to contaminate a semiconductor wafer or glass Is preferred.

  Examples of the acrylic polymer include (meth) acrylic acid alkyl esters (for example, methyl ester, ethyl ester, propyl ester, isopropyl ester, butyl ester, isobutyl ester, s-butyl ester, t-butyl ester, pentyl ester, Isopentyl ester, hexyl ester, heptyl ester, octyl ester, 2-ethylhexyl ester, isooctyl ester, nonyl ester, decyl ester, isodecyl ester, undecyl ester, dodecyl ester, tridecyl ester, tetradecyl ester, hexadecyl ester , Octadecyl esters, eicosyl esters, etc., alkyl groups having 1 to 30 carbon atoms, especially 4 to 18 carbon linear or branched alkyl esters, etc.) and Meth) acrylic acid cycloalkyl esters (e.g., cyclopentyl ester, acrylic polymers such as one or more was used as a monomer component of the cyclohexyl ester etc.). In addition, (meth) acrylic acid ester means acrylic acid ester and / or methacrylic acid ester, and (meth) of the present invention has the same meaning.

  The acrylic polymer contains units corresponding to other monomer components copolymerizable with the (meth) acrylic acid alkyl ester or cycloalkyl ester, if necessary, for the purpose of modifying cohesive force, heat resistance and the like. You may go out. Examples of such monomer components include, for example, carboxyl group-containing monomers such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, carboxyethyl (meth) acrylate, carboxypentyl (meth) acrylate, itaconic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, and crotonic acid; maleic anhydride Acid anhydride monomers such as itaconic anhydride; 2-hydroxyethyl (meth) acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth) acrylate, 4-hydroxybutyl (meth) acrylate, 6-hydroxyhexyl (meth) acrylate Hydroxyl group-containing monomers such as 8-hydroxyoctyl (meth) acrylate, 10-hydroxydecyl (meth) acrylate, 12-hydroxylauryl (meth) acrylate, (4-hydroxymethylcyclohexyl) methyl (meth) acrylate; Styrene Contains sulfonic acid groups such as phonic acid, allylsulfonic acid, 2- (meth) acrylamide-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid, (meth) acrylamidepropanesulfonic acid, sulfopropyl (meth) acrylate, (meth) acryloyloxynaphthalenesulfonic acid Monomers; Phosphoric acid group-containing monomers such as 2-hydroxyethyl acryloyl phosphate; acrylamide, acrylonitrile and the like. One or more of these copolymerizable monomer components can be used. The amount of these copolymerizable monomers used is preferably 40% by weight or less based on the total monomer components.

  Furthermore, since the acrylic polymer is crosslinked, a polyfunctional monomer or the like can be included as a monomer component for copolymerization as necessary. Examples of such polyfunctional monomers include hexanediol di (meth) acrylate, (poly) ethylene glycol di (meth) acrylate, (poly) propylene glycol di (meth) acrylate, neopentyl glycol di (meth) acrylate, Pentaerythritol di (meth) acrylate, trimethylolpropane tri (meth) acrylate, pentaerythritol tri (meth) acrylate, dipentaerythritol hexa (meth) acrylate, epoxy (meth) acrylate, polyester (meth) acrylate, urethane (meth) An acrylate etc. are mentioned. These polyfunctional monomers can also be used alone or in combination of two or more. The amount of the polyfunctional monomer used is preferably 30% by weight or less of the total monomer components from the viewpoint of adhesive properties and the like.

  The acrylic polymer can be prepared, for example, by applying an appropriate method such as a solution polymerization method, an emulsion polymerization method, a bulk polymerization method, or a suspension polymerization method to a mixture of one or more component monomers. . The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer preferably has a composition that suppresses the inclusion of a low molecular weight substance from the viewpoint of preventing contamination of the wafer. From this point, an acrylic polymer having a weight average molecular weight of 300,000 or more, particularly 400,000 to 3,000,000 is a main component. Therefore, the pressure-sensitive adhesive can be of an appropriate crosslinking type by an internal crosslinking method, an external crosslinking method, or the like.

  For controlling the crosslinking density of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2, for example, a polyfunctional isocyanate compound, an epoxy compound, a melamine compound, a metal salt compound, a metal chelate compound, an amino resin compound, or a peroxide is used. Appropriate methods such as a method of crosslinking using an appropriate external crosslinking agent and a method of mixing low molecular compounds having two or more carbon-carbon double bonds and crosslinking by irradiation with energy rays are adopted. can do. When using an external cross-linking agent, the amount used is appropriately determined depending on the balance with the base polymer to be cross-linked and further depending on the intended use as an adhesive. Generally, it is preferable to add about 5 parts by weight or less, and further 0.1 to 5 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the base polymer. In addition, you may use additives, such as various tackifiers and an anti-aging agent, for an adhesive as needed.

  Examples of the radiation curable oligomer component include various oligomers such as urethane, polyether, polyester, polycarbonate, and polybutadiene, and those having a molecular weight in the range of about 100 to 30,000 are suitable. The compounding amount of the radiation-curable monomer component or oligomer component can be appropriately determined in accordance with the type of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and the amount capable of reducing the adhesive strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. Generally, the amount is, for example, about 5 to 500 parts by weight, preferably about 70 to 150 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the base polymer such as an acrylic polymer constituting the pressure-sensitive adhesive.

  As the radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, in addition to the additive-type radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, a base polymer having a carbon-carbon double bond in the polymer side chain or main chain or at the main chain terminal was used. An internal radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive is also included. Intrinsic radiation curable adhesives do not need to contain oligomer components, which are low molecular components, or do not contain much, so they are stable without the oligomer components moving through the adhesive over time. This is preferable because an adhesive layer having a layered structure can be formed.

  As the base polymer having a carbon-carbon double bond, those having a carbon-carbon double bond and having adhesiveness can be used without particular limitation. As such a base polymer, those having an acrylic polymer as a basic skeleton are preferable. Examples of the basic skeleton of the acrylic polymer include the acrylic polymers exemplified above.

  The method for introducing the carbon-carbon double bond into the acrylic polymer is not particularly limited, and various methods can be adopted, but it is easy to introduce the carbon-carbon double bond into the polymer side chain in terms of molecular design. It is. For example, after a monomer having a functional group is previously copolymerized with an acrylic polymer, a compound having a functional group capable of reacting with the functional group and a carbon-carbon double bond is converted into a radiation curable carbon-carbon double bond. A method of performing condensation or addition reaction while maintaining the above.

  Examples of combinations of these functional groups include carboxylic acid groups and epoxy groups, carboxylic acid groups and aziridyl groups, hydroxyl groups and isocyanate groups, and the like. Among these combinations of functional groups, a combination of a hydroxyl group and an isocyanate group is preferable because of easy tracking of the reaction. Moreover, the functional group may be on either side of the acrylic polymer and the compound as long as the acrylic polymer having the carbon-carbon double bond is generated by a combination of these functional groups. In the preferable combination, it is preferable that the acrylic polymer has a hydroxyl group and the compound has an isocyanate group. In this case, examples of the isocyanate compound having a carbon-carbon double bond include methacryloyl isocyanate, 2-methacryloyloxyethyl isocyanate, m-isopropenyl-α, α-dimethylbenzyl isocyanate, and the like. Further, as the acrylic polymer, those obtained by copolymerizing the above-exemplified hydroxy group-containing monomers, ether compounds of 2-hydroxyethyl vinyl ether, 4-hydroxybutyl vinyl ether, diethylene glycol monovinyl ether, or the like are used.

  As the intrinsic radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, the base polymer (particularly acrylic polymer) having the carbon-carbon double bond can be used alone, but the radiation curable monomer does not deteriorate the characteristics. Components and oligomer components can also be blended. The radiation-curable oligomer component or the like is usually in the range of 30 parts by weight or less, preferably in the range of 0 to 10 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the base polymer.

  The radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive contains a photopolymerization initiator when cured by ultraviolet rays or the like. Examples of the photopolymerization initiator include 4- (2-hydroxyethoxy) phenyl (2-hydroxy-2-propyl) ketone, α-hydroxy-α, α′-methylacetophenone, 2-methyl-2-hydroxypropio Α-ketol compounds such as phenone and 1-hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone; methoxyacetophenone, 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone, 2,2-diethoxyacetophenone, 1-hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone, 2-methyl-1 Acetophenone compounds such as [4- (methylthio) -phenyl] -2-morpholinopropane-1; benzoin ether compounds such as benzoin ethyl ether, benzoin isopropyl ether and anisoin methyl ether; 2-methyl-2-hydroxy Propi Α-ketone compounds such as phenone, ketal compounds such as benzyldimethyl ketal; aromatic sulfonyl chloride compounds such as 2-naphthalenesulfonyl chloride; 1-phenone-1,1-propanedione-2- (o-ethoxycarbonyl) ) Photoactive oxime compounds such as oximes; benzophenone compounds such as benzophenone, benzoylbenzoic acid, 3,3′-dimethyl-4-methoxybenzophenone; thioxanthone, 2-chlorothioxanthone, 2-methylthioxanthone, 2, Thioxanthone compounds such as 4-dimethylthioxanthone, isopropylthioxanthone, 2,4-dichlorothioxanthone, 2,4-diethylthioxanthone, 2,4-diisopropylthioxanthone; camphorquinone; halogenated ketone Acylphosph Nokishido; acyl phosphonium diisocyanate and the like. The compounding quantity of a photoinitiator is about 0.05-20 weight part with respect to 100 weight part of base polymers, such as an acryl-type polymer which comprises an adhesive.

  Examples of the radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive used for forming the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 include an addition polymerizable compound having two or more unsaturated bonds and an epoxy group disclosed in JP-A-60-196956. Examples include rubber adhesives and acrylic adhesives that contain a photopolymerizable compound such as alkoxysilane and a photopolymerization initiator such as a carbonyl compound, an organic sulfur compound, a peroxide, an amine, or an onium salt compound. It is done. Examples of the addition polymerizable compound having two or more unsaturated bonds include polyhydric alcohol ester or oligoester of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, epoxy or urethane compound, and the like.

  The compounding amount of the photopolymerizable compound or photopolymerization initiator is generally 10 to 500 parts by weight and 0.05 to 20 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the base polymer, respectively. In addition to these components, if necessary, an epoxy group functional cross-linking agent having one or more epoxy groups in the molecule such as ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether may be added and cross-linking efficiency of the adhesive You may make it raise.

  In the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 using the radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, a compound that is colored by irradiation with radiation can be contained as necessary. By including a compound to be colored in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 by irradiation with radiation, only the irradiated portion can be colored. That is, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a corresponding to the work pasting portion 3a can be colored. Accordingly, whether or not the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 has been irradiated with radiation can be immediately determined by visual observation, the workpiece pasting portion 3a can be easily recognized, and workpieces can be easily pasted together. Further, when detecting a semiconductor element by an optical sensor or the like, the detection accuracy is increased, and no malfunction occurs when the semiconductor element is picked up.

  A compound that is colored by radiation irradiation is a compound that is colorless or light-colored before radiation irradiation, but becomes colored by radiation irradiation. Preferable specific examples of such compounds include leuco dyes. As the leuco dye, conventional triphenylmethane, fluoran, phenothiazine, auramine, and spiropyran dyes are preferably used. Specifically, 3- [N- (p-tolylamino)]-7-anilinofluorane, 3- [N- (p-tolyl) -N-methylamino] -7-anilinofluorane, 3- [ N- (p-tolyl) -N-ethylamino] -7-anilinofluorane, 3-diethylamino-6-methyl-7-anilinofluorane, crystal violet lactone, 4,4 ', 4 "-trisdimethyl Examples thereof include aminotriphenylmethanol, 4,4 ′, 4 ″ -trisdimethylaminotriphenylmethane, and the like.

  Developers preferably used together with these leuco dyes include conventionally used initial polymers of phenol formalin resins, aromatic carboxylic acid derivatives, electron acceptors such as activated clay, and further change the color tone. In some cases, various color formers can be used in combination.

  Such a compound colored by irradiation with radiation may be once dissolved in an organic solvent and then included in the radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, or may be finely powdered and included in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2. Good. The compound is used in an amount of 0.01 to 10% by weight, preferably 0.5 to 5% by weight in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2. When the proportion of the compound exceeds 10% by weight, the radiation applied to the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is absorbed too much by the compound, so that the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a is not sufficiently cured and the pressure-sensitive adhesive strength is sufficiently reduced. There are things that do not. On the other hand, when the compound is used in an amount of less than 0.01% by weight, the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet may not be sufficiently colored when irradiated with radiation, and malfunction may easily occur when picking up a semiconductor element.

  When the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is formed of a radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, after the radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is formed on the support base 1, radiation is partially applied to the portion corresponding to the work pasting portion 3a. Can be applied to form a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a. The partial radiation irradiation can be performed through a photomask in which a pattern corresponding to a portion (3b or the like) other than the workpiece pasting portion 3a is formed. Moreover, the method etc. of irradiating and hardening | curing an ultraviolet-ray spotly are mentioned. The radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 can be formed by transferring what is provided on the separator onto the support substrate 1. Partial radiation curing can also be performed on the radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 provided on the separator.

  In the case where the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is formed of a radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, all or a part of at least one side of the support substrate 1 other than the part corresponding to the workpiece pasting part 3a is shielded from light. The radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is formed on this, and then irradiated with radiation to cure the portion corresponding to the work pasting portion 3a, thereby forming the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a with reduced adhesive strength. it can. As a light shielding material, what can become a photomask on a support film can be prepared by printing, vapor deposition, or the like. According to this manufacturing method, the dicing die-bonding film of the present invention can be efficiently manufactured.

  In the case where curing is inhibited by oxygen during irradiation, it is desirable to block oxygen (air) from the surface of the radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 by some method. For example, a method of coating the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 with a separator, a method of irradiating ultraviolet rays or the like in a nitrogen gas atmosphere, and the like can be mentioned.

  The thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is not particularly limited, but is preferably about 1 to 50 μm from the viewpoint of preventing chipping of the chip cut surface and compatibility of fixing and holding the adhesive layer. Preferably it is 2-30 micrometers, Furthermore, 5-25 micrometers is preferable.

  The die bonding adhesive layer 3 supports a workpiece (semiconductor wafer or the like) pressure-bonded on the layer in close contact with the workpiece when it is cut into a chip shape. ) Has a function of acting as an adhesive layer between the cutting piece and the substrate or chip-like work cutting piece. In particular, it is important that the die bonding adhesive layer 3 has an adhesive property that does not cause the cut pieces to scatter when the workpiece is cut.

  The die bonding adhesive layer 3 can be formed by a normal die bonding agent. As the die adhesive, one that can be formed into a sheet shape is preferable. Specifically, as the material for the die adhesive, for example, a material made of a thermoplastic resin or a thermosetting resin can be suitably used. These materials can be used alone or in combination of two or more. The die bonding adhesive layer is preferably one that can adhere to a work such as a semiconductor wafer or a dicing ring at 70 ° C. or lower. Furthermore, the thing which can adhere at normal temperature is preferable.

  Examples of the thermoplastic resin (thermoplastic die adhesive) used as the die adhesive include saturated polyester resins, thermoplastic polyurethane resins, amide resins (nylon resins), imide resins, and the like. Examples of the thermosetting resin (thermosetting die adhesive) include epoxy resins, unsaturated polyester resins, thermosetting acrylic resins, and phenol resins. As the thermosetting resin, a thermosetting resin that has been desolvated, formed into a sheet, and made into a B-stage is preferable. A mixture of these thermosetting resin and thermoplastic resin can also be used in a B-staged state. In the present invention, a silicone, rubber, urethane, imide, or acrylic resin having a high glass transition temperature can also be used as a die adhesive.

  The die bonding adhesive layer 3 may contain a conductive substance (conductive filler) for the purpose of imparting conductivity, improving thermal conductivity, and the like. Examples of the conductive material include spherical, acicular and flaky metal powders such as silver, aluminum, gold, copper, nickel, and conductive alloys, metal oxides such as alumina, amorphous carbon black, and graphite.

  The die bonding adhesive layer 3 may have a multilayer structure of two or more layers by appropriately combining thermoplastic resins having different glass transition temperatures and thermosetting resins having different thermosetting temperatures. In addition, since cutting water is used in the dicing process of a workpiece (semiconductor wafer or the like), the die bonding adhesive layer 3 may absorb moisture, resulting in a moisture content higher than the normal state. When bonded to a substrate or the like with such a high water content, water vapor may accumulate at the bonding interface at the stage of after-curing and float may occur. Therefore, the die bonding adhesive is configured such that a film with high moisture permeability is sandwiched between the die bonding agents. This makes it possible to avoid such problems by diffusing water vapor through the film at the stage of after-curing. Therefore, the die bonding adhesive layer 3 may have a multilayer structure in which an adhesive layer, a film, and an adhesive layer are laminated in this order.

  The die bonding adhesive layer 3 has a function of adhering and holding a work (semiconductor wafer or the like) during dicing and a function of adhering and fixing a chip-like work cutting piece (semiconductor chip or the like) to an adherend such as a substrate. The thickness is not particularly limited, but is, for example, 1 to 100 μm, preferably 3 to 70 μm, and preferably about 5 to 50 μm.

  The adhesive layer 3 for die bonding is designed so that the adhesive force to the workpiece of the workpiece attaching portion 3a and the adhesive force to the adhesive layer 2a are: adhesive force to the workpiece> adhesive force to the adhesive layer 2a. It is preferable. The adhesive force to the workpiece is appropriately adjusted according to the type of workpiece.

In particular, it is preferably 0.01 to 0.35 N / 20 mm. On the other hand, the adhesive strength (the same condition) of the workpiece pasting portion 3a to the workpiece is 10 to 50 N / 20 mm or less, more preferably 10 to 30 N / 20 mm from the viewpoint of reliability at the time of dicing, pickup, die bonding, and pickup properties. Is preferred.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 ′ is provided with a portion 2 b ′ (sometimes referred to as a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 b ′) corresponding to the dicing ring attaching portion 3 b ′. Further, the adhesive layer 2 ′ has a peeling force at the interface B ′ between the dicing ring attaching portion 3b ′ and the adhesive layer 2b ′ formed corresponding thereto, so that the peeling force of the interface A> the interface B ′. It is designed to have a relationship of peeling force. Note that the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 in FIG. 2 is entirely the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b except for the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a. However, as shown in FIG. 3, a part other than the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2a is part of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b ′. You can also

It is preferable that the adhesive strength for the dicing ring and the adhesive strength for the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b ′ are designed so that the pressure-sensitive adhesive strength for the dicing ring <the pressure-sensitive adhesive strength for the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2b ′. The adhesive strength with respect to the dicing ring is appropriately adjusted according to the type of the dicing ring.

  The dicing die-bonding film of the present invention may have a configuration in which a die-bonding adhesive layer is provided only at a portion where the workpiece on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is bonded. FIG. 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing still another example of the dicing die-bonding film of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the dicing die-bonding film 12 has a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 on a support substrate 1 and a die-bonding adhesive layer 3 ″ on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2.

  The die bonding adhesive layers 3 and 3 ″ of the dicing die bond films 10 to 12 may be protected by a protective layer 4. That is, the protective layer 4 can be arbitrarily provided. It has a function as a protective material for protecting the adhesive layer 3, 3 ″ for die bonding until it is put into practical use. The protective layer 4 can further be used as a support substrate when transferring the die bonding adhesive layers 3 and 3a to the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2.

A workpiece is pressure-bonded onto the die-bonding adhesive layer 3a (3 ″) of the films 10 to 12, and this is adhered and held and fixed. Crimping is performed by a conventional method. As a workpiece that is an adherend, for example, a semiconductor wafer, a multilayer substrate, a batch sealing module, or the like can be used. In the present invention, a semiconductor wafer can be suitably used as the adherend or workpiece.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the workpiece is diced into chips. This figure is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the state of dicing.

For the bonding, a wafer bonding apparatus (DR-8500) manufactured by Nitto Seiki Co., Ltd. was used. The dicing was fully cut so as to obtain a 5 mm square chip size. The cut semiconductor wafer and the dicing die bond film were examined for the presence of filamentous waste. Details of the method for observing the filamentous waste and the dicing conditions will be described later.

Furthermore, a silicon chip was picked up from the supporting base material side of each dicing die-bonding film by a needle push-up method, and chip fly and pick-up properties were evaluated. Further, the picked-up chip was examined for the presence of chipping. Measurement conditions will be described later.

Cut method: Full cut A mode Chip size: 5mm square

[Method for observing filamentous waste]
Three lines on the left and right (7 lines in total) including the center line of the cut semiconductor wafer were observed with an optical microscope (50 times), and the number of filaments having a length of 10 μm or more was counted (see FIG. 4). The observation of the thread waste was performed on the surface and side surfaces of the semiconductor chip and the surface in the vicinity of the cut line of the dicing die bond film.

Dicing ring: 2-8-1 (trade name, manufactured by Disco Corporation, inner diameter 19.5 cm)
Withdrawal amount: 5mm
Die bonder: SPA-300 (trade name, manufactured by Shinkawa Co., Ltd.)

[Chipping evaluation method]

(result)
As can be seen from the following Tables 1 and 2, in Examples 1 to 6, no filamentous waste was observed, but in Comparative Example 2, much filamentous waste was observed at any location.

  Regarding chipping, it occurred slightly in Examples 3 and 4, but it was in a usable state in terms of die performance. In Examples 1, 2, 4 and 5, no chipping occurred and it was good. On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6, occurrence of chipping was observed, and it was unusable due to die performance. Further, it was confirmed that the chip skipping did not occur at all in each example and had sufficient adhesive force to fix the semiconductor chip. On the other hand, in Comparative Example 4, many chip jumps were observed, and it was confirmed that the adhesive force of the adhesive layer was insufficient. Moreover, since the dicing die-bonding film of Comparative Example 7 could not be attached with a dicing ring, dicing itself could not be performed.

  As is clear from these test results, it was found that when the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is thin, thread-like waste is likely to be generated by the dicing blade cutting the support substrate. On the other hand, it was confirmed that chipping occurs when the thickness is too large, and the quality of the semiconductor chip is significantly lowered.
