Description

  The present invention relates to a film substrate for laser dicing, and a film for laser dicing and an electronic component manufacturing method using the same.

  When dicing a semiconductor wafer, the wafer is cut by a dicing blade while using cooling water and cleaning water, and in the next expansion process, the dicing film corresponding to the cut wafer is expanded to form small chips. It was done. At this time, the semiconductor wafer was fixed with a dicing film to prevent chips from being scattered.

  On the other hand, as a semiconductor wafer dicing method, a method of dicing a semiconductor wafer with a laser beam has been proposed (see, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-245173). As a dicing method using laser light, a surface ablation method in which a laser is focused on a wafer surface and absorbed to dig a groove has been known for a long time. In recent years, after forming a modified region by condensing laser light inside the wafer, a method of dividing the wafer from the modified region as a starting point by pulling a dicing film corresponding to the wafer (for example, stealth dicing) Law) has been proposed.

  In the dicing method using laser light, when the laser light is irradiated through the dicing film, the dicing film has high transparency in order to divide the wafer without hindering the irradiated laser light. It is required to do. In addition, the dicing film is required to have a property that allows good division of the wafer after laser irradiation.

  In relation to the above circumstances, as a technique related to the dicing method using laser light, for example, including an adhesive layer having a predetermined tensile elastic modulus and adhesive force, and a base material layer having a predetermined tensile elastic modulus, A dicing film having an expansion ratio and a haze in a predetermined range is disclosed (for example, see JP 2011-61097 A). According to this dicing film, it is said that a high division rate can be obtained.

  As a dicing technique using an ionomer, a substrate for a dicing tape having a layer containing a potassium ionomer is disclosed (for example, see JP 2011-40449 A). According to this base material for dicing tape, it is said that it is excellent in antistatic performance. Also disclosed is a semiconductor wafer sheet having a base sheet in which an ionomer resin is a base polymer and a predetermined crystal dispersant is blended, and an adhesive layer (for example, JP 2000-273416 A). And JP 2000-345129 A). According to this semiconductor wafer sheet, it is said that expanded uniformity can be obtained.

  In addition, as a dicing technique using a cross-linked resin containing an ionomer, the base film does not cause problems due to loosening after the heat shrinking step by setting the Vicat softening point and the stress increase due to heat shrinkage to a predetermined range. A dicing film is described (for example, see JP 2011-216508 A). In addition, it is disclosed that ionomer resin crosslinked with metal ions such as zinc and magnesium is used from the viewpoint of preventing thread-like shavings from being threaded (see, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-210887).

  Furthermore, three layers in which a 40 μm thick intermediate layer containing crystalline polypropylene is disposed between a 30 μm thick adhesive coating layer using EMAA and a 30 μm thick expanding ring contact layer using low density polyethylene A substrate for a wafer dicing tape having a structure has been disclosed (for example, see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-158098). According to this wafer dicing tape substrate, it is said that it has excellent uniform expandability. Further, a three-layer in which a central layer using an ethylene-methacrylic acid- (2-methyl-propyl acrylate) terpolymer or a zinc ionomer resin thereof is disposed between two layers using low-density polyethylene. An adhesive tape for fixing a semiconductor wafer having a structure has been disclosed (see, for example, JP-A-7-230972). According to this adhesive tape for fixing a semiconductor wafer, it is said that necking during expansion and adhesion to a pickup pin are prevented.

  However, the dicing film described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-61097 has a certain degree of suitability in that the substrate is divided efficiently, and the base for dicing tape described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-40449 is disclosed. As for the materials, the use of potassium ionomer is expected to improve the antistatic performance, but none of the materials necessarily meet the market demands in terms of transparency or wafer fragmentation. The sheets described in JP 2000-273416 A and JP 2000-345129 A assume dicing with a dicing blade, and are difficult to apply to dicing with laser light. Furthermore, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-216508 discloses a technique for applying an ionomer to an adhesive tape for wafer processing, but it is a technique for solving the problem at the time of dicing with a blade, up to the workability at the time of laser dicing. Is not planned.

Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-210887 also discloses a technique for applying an ionomer to an adhesive tape for wafer processing. Until is not planned.
As described above, further improvement is expected for the laser processability of the dicing film.

  In addition, in the substrate for wafer dicing tape described in JP-A No. 2003-158098, polyolefin such as polypropylene is used for the intermediate layer constituting the laminated structure. In general, polypropylene or the like has an extremely large stress when it is stretched. Therefore, when a dicing film is expanded after laser irradiation by a stealth dicing method, whitening is likely to occur when the dicing film is expanded. On the contrary, in the technique described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-230972, which has a three-layer structure in which a layer using a terpolymer is an intermediate layer, stress at the initial stage of elongation becomes too small, so that the wafer is divided. It is difficult to do well. In this case, it is necessary to increase the amount of expansion of the tape in order to improve the dividing property of the wafer. However, if the amount of expansion of the tape is increased, the amount of tape deflection increases, which may adversely affect the transport process and the like.

  As described above, in the conventional dicing technology using laser light, when the laser light is irradiated through the dicing film, the irradiated laser light is collected inside the wafer without being affected by absorption or scattering. From the viewpoint of making it light, it is the actual situation that sufficient transparency cannot be ensured. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of determining the laser beam irradiation position, transparency in the visible region is required.

  In the stealth dicing method using laser light, the dicing film is expanded after the laser irradiation to uniformly expand the dicing film, and the cracks in the wafer corresponding to the dicing film are separated from the starting point. In order to improve the division property at this time, it is required that the stress required for the dicing film satisfies a predetermined range that does not adversely affect other properties such as whitening. In particular, when the stress of the dicing film is insufficient, sufficient splitting properties cannot always be obtained. Further, the dicing film is required to have antistatic properties.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and is suitable for laser dicing by laser light, and has excellent transparency and wafer cutting properties, a film substrate for laser dicing, a film for laser dicing, and wafer cutting. The present invention provides a method for manufacturing an electronic component having excellent properties.

  Wafer severability is the ease of division in a modified region inside a wafer formed using laser light. The film substrate for dicing has good extensibility that it has expandability (expansion rate) of 102% or more while having a stress of 9 MPa or more and 19 MPa or less (preferable lower limit is a range exceeding 10 MPa). It is preferable in terms of obtaining.

  The inventors of the present invention provide a wafer cutting property of the base material (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “stealth dicing film base material”) provided when producing a stealth dicing film including an adhesive layer and a base material. Studies were repeated to improve (ie initial stress) and expandability. The present invention maintains the thickness of the film base material at an appropriate thickness, and adjusts the initial stress and the expansion rate of the film base material to a predetermined range, so that the balance between the splitting property and the expandability of the film base material is achieved. It has been achieved based on such knowledge.

[Stealth Dicing Film Base and Stealth Dicing Film]
The stealth dicing film 1 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “dicing tape 1”) will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, and the stealth dicing film substrate of the present invention will be described in detail through the description. FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a configuration example of a stealth dicing film.

  Stealth dicing is a dicing method in which a laser is focused inside a silicon wafer to form a modified layer (crack or the like) in the wafer, and external stress is applied by tape expand or the like to divide the chip.

As shown in FIG. 1, the stealth dicing film 1 includes a stealth dicing film base material 11 (hereinafter referred to as a base material 11) and an adhesive layer 12 provided on the base material 11.
The substrate 11 may be configured as either a single layer or a multilayer. When the base material 11 is configured in multiple layers, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, the base material 11 includes a layer 11 </ b> X, an intermediate layer 11 </ b> Y (or 11 </ b> Z), and an inner layer 11 </ b> Z (in contact with the adhesive layer 12 constituting the stealth dicing film Alternatively, a structure including a three-layer structure in which 11Y) is overlaid can be formed.

In the stealth dicing method, the wafer is made into chips by utilizing the extension force of the dicing film. In the stealth dicing method which has been attracting attention in recent years, dicing sheets used for blade dicing and laser dicing which have been widely used in the past have been used as they are when producing micro-sized semiconductor chips. However, when such a conventional dicing sheet is used, the initial expansion strength (initial stress) may be too low. If the initial stress of the film is too low, the extension force is not sufficiently transmitted to the modified portion formed inside the wafer, so that it becomes difficult to chip the wafer. That is, in a film in which initial stress cannot be obtained sufficiently, each chip cannot be divided by a dicing line, and a plurality of chips are connected, which may reduce the production yield of semiconductor chips. Therefore, in the present invention, in order to improve the wafer severability (that is, initial strength (also referred to as initial stress)) and expandability of the film substrate for stealth dicing, the thickness of the substrate is maintained at a predetermined thickness, By adjusting the initial stress and the expansion rate of the base material to a predetermined range, a balance between breakability and expandability is achieved.
In particular, when the substrate is composed of multiple layers, the layer 11Y (first layer Y) and the layer 11Z with respect to the layer X in contact with the adhesive layer in order to improve the wafer severability (initial strength) and expandability as described above. By balancing the (second layer Z) and adjusting the initial stress of the base material to a range of 9 MPa or more and 19 MPa or less, a balance between the breakability and the expandability can be achieved. In addition, the film substrate of the present invention has a multi-layer structure, but the transparency of the layer is maintained, laser diffusion and absorption are small, and the processing suitability by stealth dicing is excellent.

  The stealth dicing film 1 is used for so-called stealth dicing, in which one surface is formed as an adhesive surface, and the wafer is divided (separated) in a non-contact manner starting from a crack formed in the wafer by laser light irradiation. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3A, the stealth dicing film 1 is placed on the dicing table 6 and attached to the back surface of the wafer W, and laser is irradiated through the stealth dicing film 1. Laser light L is guided inside the wafer W by laser irradiation, and a plurality of modified regions W1 are formed inside the wafer W by the laser light as shown in FIG. 3B. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 4, the wafer W is separated into individual chips starting from the modified region W1 by applying an external stress to the stealth dicing film 1 and expanding it in the direction of the arrow.

  The stealth dicing film 1 can be applied not only to the above stealth dicing but also to a dicing method using a dicing blade and other dicing methods using laser light.

(Base material)
The substrate may be configured as either a single layer or a multilayer of two or more layers.
~ A. Single layer configuration ~
First, the case where the base material is configured in a single layer structure will be described.
FIG. 1 shows an example in which the substrate 11 is configured in a single layer structure. In FIG. 1, the base material 11 is an ionomer resin base material formed using a magnesium ionomer of an ethylene / (meth) acrylic acid copolymer and / or a zinc ionomer of an ethylene / (meth) acrylic acid copolymer. It is.

  The magnesium ionomer includes at least ethylene / (meth) acrylic acid copolymer, ethylene / (meth) acrylic acid alkyl ester copolymer, or ethylene / (meth) acrylic acid / (meth) acrylic acid alkyl ester copolymer. A magnesium ionomer partially neutralized with magnesium is preferred. The copolymer may be any of a block copolymer, a random copolymer, and a graft copolymer, but in consideration of transparency, a binary random copolymer, a ternary random copolymer, a binary It is preferable to use a graft copolymer of a random copolymer or a graft copolymer of a ternary random copolymer, and more preferably a binary random copolymer or a ternary random copolymer.

Among the ionomer resins, a preferred magnesium ionomer is based on a copolymer of ethylene and (meth) acrylic acid synthesized by a high-pressure radical polymerization method, and the copolymerization ratio of the (meth) acrylic acid is 10% by mass. In the range of more than 30% by mass and neutralized with magnesium ions. The degree of neutralization with magnesium ions is in the range of more than 0% to 60%, and in this range, extensibility and severability are excellent. The degree of neutralization is preferably in the range of 10% or more and 60% or less, and transparency is excellent in this range. Furthermore, the preferable neutralization degree is in the range of 10% to 40%, and within this range, the balance of expandability, splitting property and transparency is excellent.
Among them, the copolymerization ratio of (meth) acrylic acid in the magnesium ionomer exceeds 10% by mass in terms of excellent balance between expandability, molding processability, fragmentability, and transparency, and is easily available industrially. 20 mass% or less is more preferable.

  The zinc ionomer includes at least ethylene / (meth) acrylic acid copolymer, ethylene / (meth) acrylic acid alkyl ester copolymer, or ethylene / (meth) acrylic acid / (meth) acrylic acid alkyl ester copolymer. Zinc ionomers partially neutralized with zinc are preferred. The copolymer may be any of a block copolymer, a random copolymer, or a graft copolymer as in the case of the magnesium ionomer. However, in consideration of transparency, the copolymer is a binary random copolymer or a ternary random copolymer. A copolymer, a graft copolymer of a binary random copolymer, or a graft copolymer of a ternary random copolymer is preferable, and a binary random copolymer or a ternary random copolymer is more preferable.

A suitable zinc ionomer is based on a copolymer of ethylene and (meth) acrylic acid synthesized by a high-pressure radical polymerization method, and the copolymerization ratio of the (meth) acrylic acid exceeds 10% by mass and is 30% by mass. The following ranges were neutralized with zinc ions. The degree of neutralization with zinc ions is in the range of more than 0% to 60%, and in this range, extensibility and severability are excellent. The degree of neutralization is preferably in the range of 10% or more and 60% or less, and transparency is excellent in this range. Furthermore, the preferable neutralization degree is in the range of 10% to 40%, and within this range, the balance of expandability, splitting property and transparency is excellent.
Among them, the copolymerization ratio of (meth) acrylic acid in the zinc ionomer exceeds 10% by mass in terms of excellent balance between expandability, moldability, fragmentability, and transparency, and is easily available industrially. 20 mass% or less is more preferable.

  The ethylene / (meth) acrylic acid copolymer constituting the ionomer is a copolymer in which at least ethylene and acrylic acid or methacrylic acid are copolymerized, and further a ternary or more in which a third copolymerization component is copolymerized. It may be a multi-component copolymer.

In addition to ethylene and the (meth) acrylic acid copolymerizable with ethylene, the third copolymerization component includes unsaturated carboxylic acid esters (for example, methyl acrylate, (Meth) acrylic acid alkyl esters such as ethyl acrylate, isobutyl acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, isooctyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, isobutyl methacrylate, dimethyl maleate, diethyl maleate), vinyl esters (Eg, vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, etc.), unsaturated hydrocarbons (eg, propylene, butene, 1,3-butadiene, pentene, 1,3-pentadiene, 1-hexene, etc.), vinyl sulfuric acid, vinyl nitric acid, etc. Oxides, halogen compounds (eg, vinyl chloride, vinyl fluoride) Le), vinyl group-containing 1,2 amine compounds, carbon monoxide, may be sulfur dioxide and the like have been copolymerized.
Especially, as said 3rd copolymerization component, unsaturated carboxylic acid ester is preferable and (meth) acrylic-acid alkylester (The preferable carbon number of an alkyl part is 1-4) is more preferable.

The ionomer resin in the present invention may contain an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester, but the content ratio of the constituent unit derived from the (meth) acrylic acid alkyl ester in the copolymer is preferably less than 7% by mass. When the content ratio of the structural unit derived from the (meth) acrylic acid alkyl ester is less than 7% by mass, since the stress of the dicing film is maintained, more excellent fragmentation can be obtained. The content ratio of the structural unit derived from the (meth) acrylic acid alkyl ester is preferably 5% by mass or less, and does not have the structural unit derived from the (meth) acrylic acid alkyl ester (content ratio: 0% [mass ratio ]) Is more preferable.

~ B. Multi-layer configuration
Next, a case where the base material has a multilayer structure will be described.
As shown in FIG. 2, the base material 11 has a multilayer structure in which a layer 11X, a layer 11Y (first layer Y), and a layer 11Z (second layer Z) in contact with the adhesive layer 12 are stacked at least in this order, And a multilayer structure composed of three or more layers selected from a multilayer structure in which the layer X, the layer 11Z (second layer Z), and the layer 11Y (first layer Y) in contact with the adhesive layer 12 are stacked at least in this order. It can be provided and configured.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the base material 11 can constitute a stealth dicing film by bringing it into contact with an adhesive layer 12 for fixing the wafer on one side thereof. In the case of a stealth dicing film, the adhesive layer 12 is in close contact with the “layer 11X in contact with the adhesive layer” in the multilayer structure of the substrate 11, as shown in FIG. Therefore, the layer 11X in contact with the adhesive layer is provided so as to be positioned on the surface layer (outermost layer) of the multilayer structure.

  When the substrate 11 has a multilayer structure in which the layer X in contact with the adhesive layer, the first layer Y, and the second layer Z are arranged in this order, the first layer Y forms a three-layer structure. Make an intermediate layer. In addition to the three layers of the layer X, the first layer Y, and the second layer Z that are in contact with the adhesive layer, the multilayer structure is formed between the layer X and the first layer Y that is in contact with the adhesive layer or the first layer Y. Another layer on the second layer Z, which is one end of the three-layer structure of the layer X / the first layer Y / the second layer Z between the layer Y and the second layer Z or in contact with the adhesive layer May be provided to form a multilayer structure of four or more layers.

  Moreover, as for the base material 11, the 1st layer Y and the 2nd layer Z are reverse as another aspect of the multilayer structure which has the layer X which touches the adhesion layer, the 1st layer Y, and the 2nd layer Z. The layer X, the second layer Z, and the first layer Y, which are disposed in contact with the adhesive layer, may be configured in a multilayer structure in this order. In this case, the second layer Z forms an intermediate layer forming a three-layer structure. In the case of this multilayer structure, as in the case of the above structure, the layer X in contact with the adhesive layer and the second layer Z, or between the second layer Z and the first layer Y, or the layer X in contact with the adhesive layer. On the first layer Y that is one end of the three-layer structure of / second layer Z / first layer Y, another layer may be provided to form a multilayer structure of four or more layers.

[Layer X in contact with adhesive layer]
