Description
The present invention relates to a ceramic circuit board and a method of manufacturing the ceramic circuit board, and more particularly, to a ceramic circuit board and a method of manufacturing the ceramic circuit board. The ceramic circuit board includes a ceramic substrate, And a method of manufacturing the same.
In recent years, with the advancement of power electronics, the amount of heat generated by semiconductor devices that incorporate power semiconductors as they are integrated and miniaturized is also increasing. In order to efficiently dissipate the heat generated therefrom, bonding of ceramic substrate and metal in a semiconductor device is widely used. Unlike a general substrate using phenol or epoxy as a main material, ceramic substrates are made of alumina (Al 2 O 3 ), aluminum nitride (AlN), silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ), silicon carbide (SiC) Zirconia (ZrO 2 ) and other ceramics are used as substrate materials to withstand high temperature and high current and exhibit high insulation. For this reason, a ceramic substrate bonded with a metal is used in various fields such as a power semiconductor, an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), a high output light emitting diode (LED), and a solar cell module.
Methods for bonding a ceramic substrate to a metal include a Mo-Mn method, an active metal bonding method, and a direct bonding method. For example, a direct bonding method in which a surface-oxidized copper plate is placed in contact with a ceramic substrate, and then the copper plate is melted by heating at a temperature lower than the melting point of copper and higher than the eutectic point of copper and oxygen, bonding copper: DBC) has been developed and commercialized.
On the other hand, a ceramic circuit board manufactured by an active metal bonding method in which a metal circuit board is bonded via a filler layer is also developed and applied to power semiconductors in order to secure more heat dissipation, strong durability and improved electrical stability. In the case of the active metal bonding method, since the bonding process temperature is lower than that of the direct bonding method, the residual stress of the metal-ceramics is small and the bonding layer is a soft metal. Therefore, the active metal bonding method has high reliability against thermal shock or thermal change. Micro voids are less likely to occur and exhibit improved electrical properties. However, in the case of a ceramic circuit board obtained by the active metal bonding method, a reaction layer is formed by reaction with ceramics when the active metal is bonded. At this time, the structure of the reaction layer is weak and the mechanical strength is lowered.
To overcome the problems of the active metal bonding method, various studies have been conducted on the bonding layer, but the effects obtained from the viewpoint of mechanical properties and reliability are not sufficient.
The present invention provides a ceramic circuit board improved in durability, thermal reliability, and electrical insulation and a method of manufacturing the ceramic circuit board.

A ceramic substrate;
A bonding layer disposed on the ceramic substrate and including NiCr;
A metal layer disposed on the bonding layer; And

Specifically, a partial discharge tester (KPD2050, manufactured by Kyushu Denshi Kogyo Co., Ltd.) was used for the partial discharge, and specifically, a voltage of 0.50 kV / s was applied to the ceramic circuit board from 0 kV to 5 kV in one step The voltage of 5 kV is maintained for a certain period of time in the second stage, then the voltage is decreased to 4.6 kV at the rate of 0.04 kV / s in the third stage, the voltage of 4.6 kV is maintained for a predetermined time in the fourth stage, And the voltage was simply dropped to 0 kV at a rate of 0.46 kV / s. In this case, the energization and insulation were checked in step 2, and the discharge charge was measured in step 4.
In addition, the bonding strength test was conducted with a universal testing machine (UTM), and the deflection amount of the large ceramic metal bonded substrate was measured with a three-dimensional measuring device.
