Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はポリイミドフィルム基材をエッチングによって貫通孔を形成する場合に、孔の開口径差が所定の範囲以上になるように制御せしめることを特徴とする貫通孔径制御方法に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
一般にポリイミド樹脂は耐熱性、電気絶縁性に優れており、CSPや多層基板に広く実用化されており、その際にポリイミドフィルム基材上に形成された配線等を基材間の導電性貫通孔によって連結する方法が用いられる。
【0003】
該ポリイミドフィルム基材1に貫通孔を形成する場合は図7から図10に示されるように、ポリイミドフィルム基材1の一方の面に感光性ドライフィルム2を、他方の面にカバーフィルム3をラミネートし(図7)、該感光性ドライフィルム2に対して露光・現像して孔のあるパターンマスク4を形成した後(図8)、通常のケミカルエッチング液で該ポリイミドフィルム基材1をエッチングし(図9)、該感光性ドライフィルム2およびカバーフィルム3を剥離すると、貫通孔5を有するポリイミドフィルム基材1を得られる(図10)。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上述のような貫通孔形成方法によって形成された貫通孔5は、銅マスクや感光性ドライフィルムマスクを用いる片側からのみのケミカルエッチングであるため、マスク開口部では等方的にエッチングが進行し、孔の側壁の角度はほぼ45度に保ったまま、時間に比例して深さ方向に反応が進むが、貫通直前にカバーフィルム3に移行する段階でポリイミドフィルム基材1は薄膜状態となり、貫通と同時にカバーフィルム3とエッチング液が接触し、液の拡散が不均一な状態になり、接着部分への浸透が発生し、サイドエッチングが起こりやすくなる。そのため、孔径のばらつきが起こりやすく、特に、孔の開口孔径比が大きく、かつ、小径側が10μ〜20μ程度の微小径の孔を形成する場合は、孔径の制御ができないという問題があった。
【0005】
更に、片側エッチングによる貫通孔形成では、ポリイミドフィルム基材1の厚みを大きくすると、孔が貫通しなかったり、孔を貫通させるために薄い基材を用いると、貫通孔径比が小さくなるという問題があった。
【0006】
本発明はポリイミドフィルム基材のエッチング処理において、孔の開口孔径比が3以上でかつ、ばらつきが少ない貫通孔を形成することができる貫通孔径制御方法を提供するものである。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上述の目的を達成するために、本発明に係るポリイミドフィルム基材1の貫通孔径制御方法は、ポリイミドフィルム基材1に200μm以下の貫通孔形成する場合において、該ポリイミドフィルム基材1の一方の面に感光性ドライフィルム2を、他方の面にカバーフィルム3をそれぞれラミネートし、感光性ドライフィルム2を露光・現像して孔のあるパターンマスク4を形成した後、エッチング液を用いて該感光性ドライフィルムパターンの面から1段目のエッチングを行い、孔が貫通する前にエッチングを停止し、両面のフィルムを剥離し、開口している面をカバーフィルム3で保護した後、他方のポリイミドフィルム基材表面を所定の厚さで全面エッチングを行い、上下の開口径比が大きな貫通孔5を形成するものである。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明に係るポリイミドフィルム基材1の貫通孔径制御方法を図1から図5に基づいて説明する。
ポリイミドフィルム基材1の一方の面に感光性ドライフィルム2を、他方の面にカバーフィルム3をそれぞれラミネートする(図1)。
【0011】
次に感光性ドライフィルム2を露光・現像して孔2aを有するパターンマスクを形成し(図2)、エッチング液を用いて該感光性ドライフィルム2側の面からエッチング処理を行い、孔2a位置におけるポリイミドフィルム基材1に孔1aが穿設され、貫通する前にエッチング処理を停止する(図3)。
【0012】
そして、ポリイミドフィルム基材1の両面のフィルムを剥離した後、ポリイミドフィルム基材1に孔1aが開口された面にカバーフィルム3をラミネートし(図4)、他方のポリイミドフィルム基材1表面を所定の厚さで全面エッチング処理を行い、孔1aの上下の開口径比が大きな貫通孔5を形成する(図5)。
【0013】
ポリイミドフィルム基材1としては市販のすべてのポリイミドフィルム基材を適用でき、例えば、東レデュポン(株)製“カプトン”、カネボウ(株)製“アピカル”、宇部興産(株)製“ユーピレックス”などを使用することができる。
【0014】
感光性ドライフィルム2としては、アルカリ現像ネガ型ドライフィルムが適用され、例えば、日合モートン(株)の“ラミナーAX”や“NIT”などのアクリル系ドライフィルムを使用することができる。
【0015】
エッチング時にエッチングの必要のないポリイミド面を保護するために使用されるカバーフィルム3としては、例えば、接着剤付きのポリプロピレンフィルムやカバー付きのアクリル系ドライフィルムなどを使用することができ、エッチング液としては、アルカリエッチング水溶液があげられ、特に一定温度におけるエッチング速度がほぼ一定なので、エッチングの制御が容易な東レエンジニアリング(株)製のエッチング液“TPE−3000、4000”が好ましい。
【0016】
アルカリ現像ネガ型ドライフィルムを用いる場合、マスク孔径が50μm以下になると、孔内においてはエッチング液の循環・置換が不十分になるため、エッチング速度が低下するが、開口部付近においてはエッチング速度が一定に保たれた状態で進行し、この際マスク下面ではサイドエッチングを伴うため、開口部孔径(R1)はマスク径(r)よりも大きくなり、図11に示すようにテーパー角(θ)の大きな円錐状の孔が形成される。
【0017】
この状態で、エッチングを停止し、開口部の反対側のポリイミドフィルム基材表面を所定の厚さ(ΔD)までエッチングすると、図12に示すように孔径ばらつきの小さな孔が形成される。
【0018】
また、図6に示すように、1段目のエッチング時間〔t1(分)〕、全面エッチング時間〔t2(分)〕、1段目のエッチングで得られる開口径〔R1(μm)〕、全面エッチングで得られる開口径〔R2(μm)〕、マスク径〔r(μm)〕、エッチング速度〔Ev(μm/分)〕、孔内部でのエッチング速度補正係数(α)、1段目のエッチング後の未貫通孔深さ〔d1(μm)〕、全面エッチングにおいて削られる未貫通孔の先端部のポリイミドフィルム厚み〔d2(μm)〕およびポリイミドフィルム厚み〔D(μm)〕が、式(1)から式(7)を満たす条件で貫通孔を形成することにより、孔径ばらつきの少ない貫通孔を形成することができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method for controlling a through-hole diameter, characterized in that when a through-hole is formed by etching a polyimide film substrate, the opening diameter difference between the holes is controlled to be within a predetermined range.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In general, polyimide resin is excellent in heat resistance and electrical insulation, and is widely put into practical use in CSP and multilayer substrates. At that time, the wiring formed on the polyimide film substrate is used as a conductive through hole between the substrates. The method of concatenating is used.
[0003]
When forming a through-hole in the polyimide film substrate 1, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 10, the photosensitive dry film 2 is provided on one surface of the polyimide film substrate 1, and the cover film 3 is provided on the other surface. After laminating (FIG. 7) and exposing and developing the photosensitive dry film 2 to form a pattern mask 4 with holes (FIG. 8), the polyimide film substrate 1 is etched with a normal chemical etching solution. When the photosensitive dry film 2 and the cover film 3 are peeled off (FIG. 9), the polyimide film substrate 1 having the through holes 5 can be obtained (FIG. 10).
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Since the through-hole 5 formed by the above-described through-hole forming method is chemical etching only from one side using a copper mask or a photosensitive dry film mask, etching proceeds isotropically at the mask opening, The reaction proceeds in the depth direction in proportion to the time while maintaining the angle of the side wall of the hole at approximately 45 degrees, but the polyimide film substrate 1 becomes a thin film state at the stage of transition to the cover film 3 immediately before the penetration, and the penetration At the same time, the cover film 3 and the etching solution come into contact with each other, so that the diffusion of the solution becomes uneven, penetration into the bonded portion occurs, and side etching is likely to occur. For this reason, there is a problem that variation in hole diameters is likely to occur, and in particular, when the hole diameter ratio of the holes is large and a small diameter hole having a small diameter of about 10 μm to 20 μm is formed, the hole diameter cannot be controlled.
[0005]
Furthermore, in the formation of through holes by one-side etching, there is a problem that if the thickness of the polyimide film substrate 1 is increased, the holes do not penetrate, or if a thin substrate is used to penetrate the holes, the through hole diameter ratio is reduced. there were.
[0006]
The present invention provides a through hole diameter control method capable of forming a through hole having a hole diameter ratio of 3 or more and less variation in etching treatment of a polyimide film substrate.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above-described object, the through hole diameter control method of the polyimide film substrate 1 according to the present invention is such that when a through hole of 200 μm or less is formed in the polyimide film substrate 1, one of the polyimide film substrates 1 A photosensitive dry film 2 is laminated on one side and a cover film 3 is laminated on the other side, and the photosensitive dry film 2 is exposed and developed to form a pattern mask 4 having a hole, and then the photosensitive dry film 2 is etched using an etching solution. Etch the first step from the surface of the conductive dry film pattern, stop the etching before the hole penetrates, peel off the films on both sides, protect the open surface with the cover film 3, and then the other polyimide The entire surface of the film substrate is etched with a predetermined thickness to form a through hole 5 having a large ratio of upper and lower opening diameters.
[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The through-hole diameter control method of the polyimide film base material 1 which concerns on this invention is demonstrated based on FIGS.
A photosensitive dry film 2 is laminated on one surface of the polyimide film substrate 1, and a cover film 3 is laminated on the other surface (FIG. 1).
[0011]
Next, the photosensitive dry film 2 is exposed and developed to form a pattern mask having holes 2a (FIG. 2), and an etching process is performed from the surface on the photosensitive dry film 2 side using an etching solution, so that the positions of the holes 2a A hole 1a is formed in the polyimide film substrate 1 and the etching process is stopped before penetrating (FIG. 3).
[0012]
And after peeling the film of both surfaces of the polyimide film base material 1, the cover film 3 is laminated on the surface by which the hole 1a was opened to the polyimide film base material 1 (FIG. 4), and the other polyimide film base material 1 surface is covered. The entire surface is etched with a predetermined thickness to form a through hole 5 having a large ratio of the upper and lower diameters of the hole 1a (FIG. 5).
[0013]
As the polyimide film substrate 1, all commercially available polyimide film substrates can be applied. For example, “Kapton” manufactured by Toray DuPont Co., Ltd. “Apical” manufactured by Kanebo Co., Ltd., “Upilex” manufactured by Ube Industries, Ltd., etc. Can be used.
[0014]
As the photosensitive dry film 2, an alkali developing negative type dry film is applied. For example, an acrylic dry film such as “Laminar AX” or “NIT” manufactured by Niigata Morton Co., Ltd. can be used.
[0015]
As the cover film 3 used for protecting the polyimide surface that does not need to be etched at the time of etching, for example, a polypropylene film with an adhesive or an acrylic dry film with a cover can be used as an etching solution. In particular, an alkaline etching aqueous solution is used, and an etching solution “TPE-3000, 4000” manufactured by Toray Engineering Co., Ltd., which allows easy control of etching, is preferable because the etching rate at a constant temperature is almost constant.
[0016]
In the case of using an alkali developing negative dry film, if the mask hole diameter is 50 μm or less, the etching rate decreases because the etching solution is not sufficiently circulated and replaced in the hole, but the etching rate is reduced near the opening. The process proceeds in a state of being kept constant, and at this time, side etching is performed on the lower surface of the mask, so that the opening hole diameter (R 1 ) becomes larger than the mask diameter (r), and the taper angle (θ) as shown in FIG. Large conical holes are formed.
[0017]
In this state, when etching is stopped and the surface of the polyimide film base opposite to the opening is etched to a predetermined thickness (ΔD), holes with small hole diameter variations are formed as shown in FIG.
[0018]
Further, as shown in FIG. 6, the first stage etching time [t 1 (min)], the entire surface etching time [t 2 (min)], and the opening diameter [R 1 (μm) obtained by the first stage etching. ], The opening diameter [R 2 (μm)], the mask diameter [r (μm)], the etching rate [Ev (μm / min)] obtained by the whole surface etching, the etching rate correction coefficient (α) inside the hole, 1 Non-through hole depth [d 1 (μm)] after stage etching, polyimide film thickness [d 2 (μm)] and polyimide film thickness [D (μm)] However, by forming the through holes under the conditions satisfying the formulas (1) to (7), it is possible to form the through holes with little variation in the hole diameter.
