Abstract

The invention relates to methods for preparing a removable system on a mother substrate. The method deposits a high surface to volume sacrificial layer on a mother substrate and stabilizes the sacrificial layer by (a) removing volatile chemical species in and on the sacrificial layer and/or (b) modifying the surface of the layer. The method coats over the sacrificial layer with a capping medium. A system is the fabricated on the capping medium. The method provides through holes-to access the sacrificial layer. The method may also apply a top layer onto the system to form a covered system. The invention also includes the step of removing the sacrificial layer to release the system from the mother substrate. Methods of the invention also include selectively removing a portion of the system and capping layers to form void regions defining an array of islands composed of device, structure, or system and capping layer regions, and optionally filling the island-defining void region with a sacrificial material. In such methods the sacrificial material and the high surface to volume sacrificial layer are removed to release the system from the mother substrate. Methods of the invention also include applying a layer to the capping material side of the released system to form a configuration wherein the system is substantially within a bonding-stress reduced neutral plane. The systems fabricated according to the invention may be placed on a wide variety of suitable substrates, including flexible substrates.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a technology for manufacturing systems using a sacrificial layer on a mother substrate, and then separating the systems from the mother substrate. More specifically, the present invention relates to a technique for stabilizing a sacrificial layer by high-temperature processing and manufacturing a high-performance substrate. L Prior Art 3 Background of the Invention Currently, microelectronics, optoelectronics, photovoltaics, and biological systems are made on insulating substrates and durable, lightweight and flexible substrates, such as metal, ceramics, glass, and plastic sheets. , Optical systems, and micro-electromechanical systems, etc., have considerable and increasing demand. There is also a great demand for the use of these systems on very large substrates such as displays. It is very challenging to manufacture high-performance systems on these substrates, because these substrates will have unacceptable surface roughness, and will often show thermal and mechanical during the manufacturing process. 6 200404340 玖, unstable description of the invention Sex. In addition, in the case where these systems are to be fabricated on large substrates, their tooling is extremely responsible or non-existent. Moreover, the production of high-quality microelectronics, optoelectronics, biological systems, photovoltaics, optical systems, and micro-electromechanical systems directly on non-conventional substrates will be subject to the highest processing temperature that the substrate itself can withstand5 Restrictions. Due to these restrictions, it is virtually impossible to achieve the same sexual behavior as seen on a conventional conventional substrate such as a silicon wafer. Many studies have used mother substrates and separation layers to build components and systems. It is separated from the mother substrate and laid on a permanent substrate. Many teams have worked on the development of separation technologies, but all have limitations in their usability.

Shimoda 及 Inoue 等人(見 T. Shimoda,S· Inoue 之 “Surface free technology laser annealing (SUFTLA),,’ International Electron Device Meeting (IEDM) Tech. Dig., 15 2289-2292 (1999)曾在一物理性分離研究中使用一 a-Si:H來 作為犧牲(釋離)層。但該方法不能使用於400°C以上溫度的 製程中(因為氫會從a-Si:H中逸出)。該方法亦需要有透明 的母基材以供雷射束射入。 而 T.J. Rinke等人(見T.J. Rinke,R.B· Bergmann,及 J.H· 20 Werner 等人 “Quasi_monocrystalline Silicon for Thin FilmShimoda and Inoue et al. (See T. Shimoda, S. Inoue, "Surface free technology laser annealing (SUFTLA)," International Electron Device Meeting (IEDM) Tech. Dig., 15 2289-2292 (1999) A-Si: H is used as a sacrificial (release) layer in sexual separation studies. However, this method cannot be used in processes above 400 ° C (because hydrogen will escape from a-Si: H). The The method also requires a transparent mother substrate for laser beam injection.

Devices” Appl. Phys. A 68 pp· 705〜707 (1999))則有另一 種分離方法。該方法係使用電化學餘刻的矽來作為分離層 ,但其僅能使用矽來作為母基材,且該母基付在需要用來 造成該分離層的電化學蝕刻步驟中會被部份^損耗。 7 200404340 玖、發明說明 以往亦曾有許多的團隊使用矽晶圓作為母基材而針對 該所謂的SOI技術來進行可觀的研究。該等研究内容乃各 依其特性而被稱為 SIMOX,Bonding/thinning,或 Smart-cut 。但其尺寸及材料皆具有單晶矽晶圓的限制(例請參見 5 MRS Bulletin 的“Material Research Society” Volume 23, Number 12, 1998年 12月)。Devices ”Appl. Phys. A 68 pp · 705 ~ 707 (1999)) has another separation method. This method uses electrochemically prepared silicon as the separation layer, but it can only use silicon as the mother substrate. In addition, the mother substrate is partially lost in the electrochemical etching step that is required to cause the separation layer. 7 200404340 玖, invention description Many teams have used silicon wafers as the mother substrate in the past. The so-called SOI technology is used to conduct considerable research. These research contents are called SIMOX, Bonding / thinning, or Smart-cut according to their characteristics. However, their size and materials have the limitations of single crystal silicon wafers ( (For example, see "Material Research Society" Volume 23, Number 12, December 1998, 5 MRS Bulletin).

Asano及Kinoshita亦曾研究一種分離方法來將TFTs設 在一塑膠基材上。但此方法需要使用玻璃作為母基材,然 後將該玻璃蝕刻(溶解)除掉以便釋離。由於其使用低溫玻 10 璃,故該方法會受限於可供處理的溫度範圍;且當然,該 等母板不能再使用。 其它的分離技術亦包括分離層的機械式分離,如以下 各專利前案所揭:No· 5,811,348、6,486,041、6,214,701、 6,225,192、6,159,824、5,854,123等美國專利,及DE 198 15 41 430 Al、DE 00993 029 A3、EP 0 797 258等各專利案。 藉一分離層的剝落來釋離則揭露於No. 6,372,608美國專利 中。 儘管曾有過這麼多對分離層的研發成果,但迄今針對 能在非一般基材上來輕易地製成該等系統及裝置的技術仍 20 舊有其需要。本發明乃專門為回應滿足上述在非傳統基材 上來製造高性能系統的需求,而提供下述的方法:使用一 穩定化的犧牲層在一 “母”基材上之構建層中製設所需的系 統,身該系統由母基材釋離,並同時控制任何在該製造/ 釋離程序中所產生的應力。本發明可供大面積、高品質的 8 200404340 玖、發明說明 系統被製設在可承受高溫的母板上,例如炼凝的二氧化矽 、石英或矽片,然後再移轉至非傳統性的,甚至不能承受 高溫的基材上。該移轉的系统亦可被包封來改善堅固性、 機械應力阻抗性、及環境穩定性。若最後定位係在一撓性 5基材上,該最終結構的系統則可被設在或靠近中立彎曲平 面上,俾使該最終結構的任何撓曲所產生的機械應力能減 到最小。若在極大的最終基材之情況下,則所有的刻製問 題將可用併組方式來克服。於本發明的另一變化例中,其 最終基材亦可在分離之前被設置在該系統上,而來免除前 10 述移轉至該最終基材上的步驟。 圖式簡單說明 第1圖示出以一適當的塗層技術在—硬層且平滑表面 的母基材上沈積一犧牲層; 第2圖示出在犧牲層上覆設一覆蓋層; 15 帛3圖示出在該覆蓋層上製成-功能系統; 第4圖示出姓刻出包圍該等功能系統構件的溝槽深入 至該第一犧牲層,並藉習知技術例如頂面削除法 來以第一犧牲材料填滿該等溝槽; 第5a(截面)圖及5b(頂視)圖乃示出一聚合物層的覆設 20 及貫孔的形成; 第6a(截面)圖及6b(頂視)圖乃示出第:犧牲㈣0 除; 聚合物基材上製成 第7圖示出該犧牲層被丟;佘而在一 一系統如第8圖所示; 9 200404340 玖、發明說明 第8a圖為本發明之分離系統的一例; 第8b圖示出一實際的分離系統。在本例中,TFTs元件 係具有一撓性的塑膠最終基材; 第9圖示出本發明用來製成一‘‘智慧電路板,,的應用, 5其含有例如光學、光電子及電子元件等各種構件; 第10(a)圖示出一凹溝圖案設在一硬質且光滑的基板( 母基板)上,例如矽片、石英、熔凝的二氧化矽、金屬、 片材,或玻璃板上; 第10(b)圖示出犧牲層的沈積,其最好係以一不均一的 10 薄膜塗層來形成; 第10(c)圖示出完成的犧牲層,並示出該凹溝圖案變成 封閉的微通道結構; 第10(d)圖示出一覆蓋材料的沈積,其可保護該犧牲層 及系統元件,以免遭受在釋離處理時底下之釋離層產生的 15 化學反應所影響; 第10(e)圖示出在該母基材上之通道結構的覆蓋層上來 製成習知的系統元件; 第10(f)圖示出使用旋塗法、CVD法、喷塗法、或任何 其它適當的技術,來沈積或塗設一聚合物(塑膠)膜; 2 0 第10(g)圖示出該系統包括該塑膠膜的釋離(分開),其 係將適當的化學或反應氣體供入經由該等微通道犧牲地溶 解該釋離層而來完成;Asano and Kinoshita have also studied a separation method to place TFTs on a plastic substrate. However, this method requires the use of glass as the mother substrate, and then the glass is etched (dissolved) to release it. Because it uses low temperature glass, this method is limited to the temperature range available for processing; and of course, these motherboards can no longer be used. Other separation technologies also include mechanical separation of the separation layer, as disclosed in the following prior patents: No. 5,811,348, 6,486,041, 6,214,701, 6,225,192, 6,159,824, 5,854,123 and other US patents, and DE 198 15 41 430 Al, DE 00993 029 A3, EP 0 797 258 and other patent cases. Release by peeling of a separation layer is disclosed in US Patent No. 6,372,608. Despite so many R & D achievements on separation layers, there is still a need for technologies that can easily make such systems and devices on non-general substrates. The present invention is specifically to respond to the above-mentioned needs for manufacturing high-performance systems on non-traditional substrates, and provides the following method: using a stabilized sacrificial layer in a build layer on a "parent" substrate The system is required to be released from the mother substrate and at the same time control any stress generated during the manufacturing / release process. The invention can be used for large-area, high-quality 8 200404340 发明, invention description system is made on a motherboard that can withstand high temperature, such as condensed silicon dioxide, quartz or silicon wafer, and then transferred to non-traditional , Can not even withstand high temperature on the substrate. The transferred system can also be encapsulated to improve robustness, mechanical stress resistance, and environmental stability. If the final positioning is on a flexible substrate, the system of the final structure can be placed on or near the neutral curved plane to minimize the mechanical stress caused by any deflection of the final structure. In the case of very large final substrates, all engraving problems can be overcome in a combined manner. In another variation of the present invention, the final substrate can also be set on the system before separation, thereby eliminating the previous step of transferring to the final substrate.

Substrate etc. The method of the present invention is mainly to manufacture or construct the system on a mother substrate, and then release the layer containing the desired system. The system can be transferred to the final substrate after release, or the final substrate can be attached to the system by some method such as adhesion, deposition or spin coating before the system 5 is released. . The method of the present invention can also be used to make a single system or multiple systems. The present invention uses a sacrificial film to separate the system from a hard "mother," and the substrate is preferably reusable. The use of separation layers and the technology of manufacturing components and systems have been disclosed. The content of the published U.S. patent application 10 2000/0020053 A1 is hereby attached. The present invention uses a sacrificial layer with a high surface-to-volume ratio and is improved by stabilizing and / or shielding the sacrificial layer Currently known methods. The present invention also discloses a method that can further strengthen the mechanical and environmental durability of the system by subsequent encapsulation.

The effect of the song is described. The present invention relates to a method 1 for making a removable system on a mother substrate. In summary, the method of the present invention includes the following steps: Depositing a high surface volume ratio on a mother substrate Sacrificial layer; 5 by removing volatile chemicals in and on the sacrificial layer, and / or 2) modifying the surface of the layer to stabilize the sacrificial layer; covering the sacrificial layer with a covering medium Forming a system on the covering medium; and making through holes to access the sacrificial layer. 10 The method of the present invention also includes the step of removing the sacrificial layer and releasing the system from the mother substrate. The present invention Other aspects of the method will be explained as follows Also as described later *, the system can be attached to any kind of substrate. — Another embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for forming a sacrificial release layer on a mother substrate. The method is a mother substrate A sacrificial layer with a high surface volume ratio of 15 is deposited on the substrate, and the volatile chemicals in and on the sacrificial layer are removed by 4 and / or b) the surface of the layer is modified to stabilize the sacrificial layer. As for the methods of the other embodiments, a covering medium can be used to cover the sacrificial layer. The "mother" substrate can provide mechanical and temperature stability of 20 degrees to these components during the manufacturing process. The material should have mechanical stability for holding transfer, and temperature stability at two temperatures, and the expansion coefficient of the material used to match these components. Any conventional hard and smooth substrate can be selected as the mother substrate, As long as it has a smooth surface and the adaptability of the microelectronics process. The material selection of the mother substrate includes, but is not limited to, semiconductors (such as silicon wafers or wafers), glass includes tex 14 200404340, glass made of invention (such as Corning 1737, etc.), fused silica, quartz, ceramics Research (such as gasified aluminum), and metals (such as steel). This base material is preferably recyclable 'and may or may not be provided with a cover layer on its surface. The mother substrate can also be recoated every time it is used. 5 The method of the present invention uses a sacrificial layer with a stabilized high surface-to-volume ratio, which allows high-temperature processing if such processing is needed-for making the system described. The manufacture of a system or specific components within a system can be accomplished using techniques known in the art. The sacrificial layer is present between the mother substrate and the system. The structure built on the mother substrate covers the functional system 10. These functional systems are made of the required combination of materials that make up each system, component, device, and interconnector (such as deposition and afterglow). When the full adaptability of the south temperature treatment manufactured by the system is required, the sacrificial layer should have one or more of the characteristics listed in Table I: < Table 1: Elements of the sacrificial layer > 15 △ Can withstand high processing temperature (T & lt 1200. △ △ will not diffuse to a large extent when treated at high temperature. △ will not negatively react to any appreciable degree when treated at high temperature. △ can withstand or be compatible with treatment chemicals It is protected. △ Does not generate too many gaseous products during removal. 20 △ Does not cause too much stress during processing. △ Can be removed by chemical / physical attacks that will not affect the structure of the system. It can also be achieved by choosing the position of the approach path of the chemical attack, or the design of the barrier layer, or some combination thereof. △ Allowable attack: the horizontal transmission of objects to form a complete separation. 15 200404340 玖, Description of the invention △ /, Structure with directed surface volume ratio 俾 Strengthen transmission and removal capabilities. △ If it has a structure with high surface volume ratio, this feature must be maintained during processing. △ Can be sunk The mother substrate can be reused easily. 5 The sacrificial layer is made of a material with a high surface area to volume ratio. In one embodiment, the sacrificial layer is a columnar porous film. Generally, the columnar porous film Is a semiconductor material. Preferably, the columnar pore film is a thin film made of Shi Xi, silicon dioxide, germanium, germanium oxide, silicon alloy such as SiGe, SiGeC, etc. The thin film may also include hydrogen Gas, or fluorine. In US Patent No. 6,399,177 B1 B, the deposition technology of these films is disclosed and attached for reference. A columnar porous silicon film is not like the commonly used porous silicon. It does not use electrochemical etching, it has a regular and controllable columnar pore structure, and silicon will penetrate into these pores. The columnar pore network silicon sacrificial layer has been disclosed in published US patent application No. 2002 / 15 0020053 A1. The use of low-temperature plasma deposition allows the material to be fabricated on a variety of substrates. Due to the sacrificial layer of the columnar pore network, silicon will have a faster etching rate, even if the etching system is through a smaller size. Wet etchant pass The hole area of the columnar pore network silicon film can allow the rapid flow of etchant and reaction products when the sacrificial layer is removed, and the rapid etch of the 20 sacrificial layer will improve the overall process. Reliability. In addition, its fast etch rate can cause fine structures in thin overlays. Other examples of using sacrificial layers with columnar pore silicon networks have been revealed ...

lb圖示出另一例的 高表面體積比之犧牲層。在此例中係使用奈米顆粒(如Si或 20 Si02微球),其亦可滿足表一的要件,且功能如同犧牲層 ,而被概略地示出。該等微球或奈米顆粒必須接近相同的 尺寸,以防止覆蓋層變形。或者,不同尺寸的微球亦可被 用於同一犧牲層來造成一更f紮的膜層,或較不粗、41的表 面。該等可能被使用的奈米球體、微粒、或分子係可由許 200404340 玖、發明說明 多材料來形成,包括二氧化石夕微粒、石夕微粒、半導體微粒 、絕緣體微粒、聚合物微粒、自行組合的分子或任何其它 球形、多邊形或不規則形狀的奈米或微尺寸的結構。當被 製成於-單層或疊層結構時,該等材料應具有一高表面對 5體積比。該等微粒、母基板或兩者亦可被以不同的表面化 學處理或連結基來官能化,而使該等微粒可藉共價“、靜 電吸力、氫鍵連接、Wander Walls(凡得瓦)作用力、分子 識別性(如維生素·抗生素作用)等來連結及/或圖案化於該 表面上。 10 為在本發明的方法中,特別是在以高溫來製造系統或 疋件時,能使用一高表面對體積比的犧牲層,故該犧牲層 須被穩定化。具有高表面自由能之高表面積的微尺寸及奈 米結構的薄膜,將會使其表面原子在薄膜的塊體熔點以下 之溫度即變成活動易遷移的。此將會導致該薄膜在低溫, 15通^指製造溫度以下,即會由於燒結而密實化。此密實化 在當以化學攻擊來除掉該薄膜時將會是不利的。且,許多 沈積膜具有各類物質,其會在高溫時由該薄膜逸出,例如 在石夕中的氫。為穩定化該犧牲層而使氣體、液體或固體等 不會在元件處理時逸出,故該等物質必須在覆蓋該犧牲層 20之前來被除去,以防止例如污染或起泡等不良作用。故, 本發明之一重要概念係,要在沈積該覆蓋層之前,或之中 ,或者之後,來穩定化該犧牲層。 ”亥犧牲層亦可藉其表面的化學處理而來穩定化,例如 在氣體環境中,或在酸液或鹼液中來氧化或氮化。該表面 18 200404340 玖、發明說明 亦可於一退火步驟或退火及化學反應的組合步驟中來被穩 定化。為除掉高溫處理時可能會由該犧牲層釋出的雜質, 亦可進行一化學處理來反應及/或除掉表面雜質,或來將 匕們由該材料中濾除。一退火步驟亦可被執行來除掉該等 5 雜質,且同樣地其亦可搭配一化學處理來進行。 穩定化該犧牲層之一具體實施例,係對一可承受高溫

以550°C來退火6小時。在該爐中殘留的氧及該薄膜表面上 15的水,會將其輕微地氧化而使該表面穩定化。退火的時間 和溫度係可依該爐及薄膜的條件而改變。以此方式的退火 亦能由該犧牲層中釋出其在沈積時所含入之表面及内部的 氫。在被以此方法來穩定化之後,該犧牲層的結構仍接近 相同於原來沈積膜,但已被修正而使其在高溫的變化能減 20 至最小,而仍保有足供有效分離所需的結構和成分。第14 圖示出被沈積的柱孔網路矽。在經退火穩定化步驟之後其 結構幾乎不變。第15圖示出該薄膜經覆蓋及高溫處理後的 狀態,其大致仍保侍原有的結構和多孔性。假使該薄膜未 被穩定化,則其將會顯得十分密實而僅含常較少的細孔。 19 200404340 5 玖、發明說明 另一種穩定化該柱孔網路矽犧牲層的方法係為過氧化 氫處理。當在過氧化氫液尹處理時,其表面處及接近該表 面的氫將會反應而形成水,且該表面會被輕微地氧化。此 將會造成與退火處理類似的穩定特性。其處理時間和溫度 亦視該柱孔網路材料的性質而定。由該高表面體積比的犧 牲層來除掉揮發物亦可在減壓或真空中來完成。 10 本發明的方法亦包含以-覆蓋介質來覆蓋該犧牲層。 該覆蓋介質會形成該系統或其内的元件被構建的表面,並 可用來穩定化該犧牲層。該覆蓋介質亦可提供該犧牲層的

為能在釋離之前有效地將一頂層黏接於所製成的系統 5 ’在該領域中習知的表面化學處理及黏接技術乃可被使用 。此係可在該系統本身的曝露表面上,或在一罩蓋該系統 的頂層上來進行。該處理與黏接技術可包括使用表面化學 性修正劑例如會與有機連結基來反應的石夕烧,來共價地化 學鍵結連接。黏劑亦可被使用,例如環氧基物或樹脂,或 10不完全固化地旋塗之介電質、玻璃或聚合物等。本發明之

15滲透至犧牲層頂部,並濕化該犧牲層,而化學性地攻擊該 犧牲層材料。在一驗證該等貫孔管道的實驗中,一金屬犧 牲層會被蒸錢,且一 1〇〜5 μιη的聚合物層會被旋塗在 Coming 1737的玻璃上。在該等貫孔被以微影術來界定, 且各孔被以反應離子蝕刻來製成之後,該樣品會被浸入一 20酸液中。該酸液會經由該等貫孔管道進入至犧牲層的頂面 ’而來姓刻該犧牲層,並側向地擴展。當該酸液側向移動

This layer is a deposited columnar porous silicon material. As shown, it has a large surface area / permeability, while extended pore areas will enhance lateral transport and fast chemical reactions. Figure 1 lb shows another example of a sacrificial layer with a high surface-to-volume ratio. In this example, nano particles (such as Si or 20 Si02 microspheres) are used, which can also meet the requirements of Table 1, and function as a sacrificial layer, but are shown schematically. The microspheres or nano particles must be close to the same size to prevent deformation of the cover. Alternatively, microspheres of different sizes can be used on the same sacrificial layer to create a more thin film layer, or a less coarse, 41 surface. These nanospheres, particles, or molecular systems that may be used can be formed by Xu 200404340, a multi-material description, including stone dioxide particles, stone evening particles, semiconductor particles, insulator particles, polymer particles, self-assembly Or any other spherical, polygonal, or irregularly shaped nano- or micro-sized structure. When made in a single-layer or laminated structure, these materials should have a high surface-to-volume ratio. The particles, mother substrate, or both can also be functionalized with different surface chemical treatments or linking groups, so that the particles can be covalently ", electrostatic attraction, hydrogen bonding, Wander Walls The surface is connected and / or patterned on the surface by the action force, molecular recognizability (such as the action of vitamins and antibiotics), etc. 10 It can be used in the method of the present invention, especially when manufacturing a system or a component at high temperature A sacrificial layer with a high surface-to-volume ratio, so the sacrificial layer must be stabilized. A micro-sized and nano-structured film with high surface free energy and high surface area will make its surface atoms below the bulk melting point of the film The temperature will become mobile and easy to migrate. This will cause the film to be at a low temperature, which means that the film will be densified due to sintering when the temperature is below 15 °. It is disadvantageous. Also, many deposited films have various kinds of substances, which will escape from the film at high temperature, such as hydrogen in stone evening. In order to stabilize the sacrificial layer, gas, liquid or solid will not be present. yuan It escapes during processing, so these substances must be removed before covering the sacrificial layer 20 to prevent adverse effects such as pollution or blistering. Therefore, an important concept of the present invention is that before the covering layer is deposited, Either, or later, the sacrificial layer is stabilized. "The sacrificial layer can also be stabilized by chemical treatment of its surface, such as in a gaseous environment, or in an acid or alkali solution to oxidize or nitride. . The surface 18 200404340 发明, description of the invention can also be stabilized in an annealing step or a combination of annealing and chemical reactions. In order to remove impurities that may be released from the sacrificial layer during high-temperature processing, a chemical treatment may also be performed to react and / or remove surface impurities, or to filter the knives from the material. An annealing step can also be performed to remove the 5 impurities, and it can also be performed with a chemical treatment. One embodiment for stabilizing the sacrificial layer is a heat treatment of a pillar hole network deposition dream that can withstand high temperature processing as a sacrificial layer. Without the stabilizing step, the film would be considerably denser in subsequent processing, which would eliminate the continuous network of pores 10 that could be used to effectively remove the film during chemical attack. The film also releases a large amount of argon at a temperature above 600 ° C, which causes blistering or cracking of the cover layer and the system or component. One method of stabilizing the sacrificial layer is annealing in a nitrogen environment. After the pillar hole network stone sacrifice layer is deposited on the mother substrate, it is annealed at 550 ° C for 6 hours in a nitrogen purged furnace. The oxygen remaining in the furnace and the water on the surface of the film will slightly oxidize it and stabilize the surface. The annealing time and temperature can be changed depending on the conditions of the furnace and the film. Annealing in this manner can also release the surface and internal hydrogen contained in the sacrificial layer during deposition. After being stabilized by this method, the structure of the sacrificial layer is still nearly the same as the original deposited film, but has been modified so that its change in high temperature can be reduced to 20 to a minimum, while still maintaining enough for effective separation Structure and composition. Figure 14 shows the deposited post hole network silicon. Its structure is almost unchanged after the annealing stabilization step. Fig. 15 shows the state of the film after being covered and subjected to high temperature treatment, and it still substantially maintains the original structure and porosity. If the film is not stabilized, it will appear very dense and contain often fewer pores. 19 200404340 5 发明. Description of the invention Another method for stabilizing the silicon sacrificial layer of the pillar hole network is hydrogen peroxide treatment. When treated with hydrogen peroxide solution Yin, hydrogen at and near the surface will react to form water, and the surface will be slightly oxidized. This will cause similar stability characteristics to the annealing process. The processing time and temperature also depend on the nature of the pore network material. Removal of volatiles from the sacrificial layer with a high surface-to-volume ratio can also be accomplished under reduced pressure or vacuum. 10 The method of the present invention also includes covering the sacrificial layer with a -covering medium. The cover medium forms the surface on which the system or components within it are constructed and can be used to stabilize the sacrificial layer. The covering medium can also provide additional protection of the sacrificial layer to shield it from chemicals and the like used in the subsequent manufacturing of the system. &Amp; The covering medium cannot be used in subsequent processing, especially in the system. Excessive deterioration during manufacture. The covering medium is spread on the sacrificial layer with the smallest void filling rate, resulting in a chemically resistant layer with mechanical durability and functionality. The cover material may include ceramics, metals, oxides, nitrides, semiconductors, insulators, and combinations thereof. The preferred covering medium is Si02 & Si3N4, which can also be used together in a laminated structure. 20 When manufacturing thin-film systems or components on flexible substrates, the problem of stress is very common, and it will cause "curling" after the impurity. The method of the present invention also solves this problem. The stress release system can be used in the variation method To achieve 'it uses a second sacrificial material to provide a path to the sacrificial layer (which may be the same or a different material) and form a stress relief zone for these system components. In this embodiment' of the present invention The method includes the following steps at or after the manufacturing steps but before the top layer is overlaid and before the release of the components. The system and the cover layer are selectively removed to form 20 200404340. Boundary island of invention description The void area of the block array. These island blocks are composed of devices, components, structural blocks, and overlying blocks; and-the sacrificial material is used to selectively fill the void area of the boundary island block. The sacrifice The material may be any sacrificial material, but not necessarily the same as the sacrificial layer, although it is also preferably a material with a high surface-to-volume ratio as described above. In the method of the present invention, the The resulting system is released from the mother substrate by removing the sacrificial material and the sacrificial layer. This can be done in a single step-simultaneously removing both the sacrificial material and the sacrificial layer, or in separate removal steps. Separate steps to complete. Preferably, the sacrificial material can be removed to form a path close to the sacrificial layer. After removing 10 times, the covering material will retain the island structure. These void areas will provide the final system The effect of stress release can also be used as a heat dissipation area during operation. The method of the present invention can be subjected to high temperature processing, so high-quality system component manufacturing or connection can be performed before releasing and making into the final substrate. High quality The components of the system can be connected to the system; or its manufacturing in the system can be completed with the present invention, because there will be no fixed processing temperature limit and stress problems. It is used as follows The first sacrificial material in the process can be any material that can withstand high temperatures and is chemically compatible with the process. An example of the material is Si & Si02. If used, such as in the first to the first Figure 8 example The second sacrificial material can be any material that can be easily removed, such as Si or other semiconductors, ceramics, metals, organics, polymers, or combinations thereof. The means of removing such sacrificial materials can be Chemical, physical methods, or some combination thereof. ^ After the system is manufactured, the method of the present invention also includes overlaying the system with polymer, glass, metal, ceramic, oxide, nitride, and ah 200404340 发明, Invention Description The steps of forming the top layer of an insulator, conductor, semiconductor, organic, plastic, or a combination thereof to form an encapsulation system. This top layer can also be a permanent top layer of the system, or it can be used The system is adhered to another substrate. In order to effectively adhere a top layer to the manufactured system before release 5 'surface chemical treatment and adhesion techniques known in the field can be used use. This can be done on the exposed surface of the system itself, or on a top layer that covers the system. The treatment and bonding technique may include covalently chemically bonding the surface using a chemical modifier on the surface, such as Shibaite, which reacts with an organic linking group. Adhesives can also be used, such as epoxy or resin, or dielectrics, glass or polymers that are spin-coated with incomplete curing. A particular embodiment of the present invention uses a spin-coated dielectric, such as phenylcyclobutane (BCB), which does not completely cure before being applied to plastic. The uncured BCB has solvents and active organics, and the system that helps to adhere a plastic film to BCB to combine a deposited plastic film such as paraiyne will have attractive characteristics because the BCB has light transmission. And dielectric properties, and the paralyne has light transmission and mechanical and chemical resistance properties. Therefore, in a preferred embodiment, a polymer layer is disposed on the system to form an encapsulation system, and the exposed surface of the top layer of the polymer is adjusted to strengthen the connection. Another layer of polymer, glass, metal or ceramic can be placed on the surface of the adjusted 20 polymer, or on another-substrate ±, which can be performed before or after the system is released from the mother substrate. . Another feature of the technology of the present invention is its tunability in the release process, which allows the removal of these sacrificial layers using vertical or horizontal or both micro-scale or nano-channel networks. Road to transport the sacrificial layer to 22 200404340 发明, invention description remover. The method of the present invention is provided with through holes and the like for accessing and removing the sacrificial layer or sacrificial material. Therefore, the method also includes causing through holes and the like to reach the sacrificial layer, or at least the sacrificial material. The position, size, and number of these vias can be defined using lithographic techniques, and the vias can be created by reactive ion etchant or other means known in the art. The through holes can be provided in the mother substrate, and a combination of a certain network can be formed in the plane of the mother substrate, or the thickness of the mother substrate can be passed to reach the sacrificial layer. The through holes are arranged to penetrate the top layer, the system or system area, the cover layer and the mother substrate. Figures 1 to 8 show the condition where the remover reaches the sacrificial layer through a vertical channel, and Figures 10 to 10 show an example of a process in which the remover approaches the sacrificial layer through a horizontal channel system. Figure 13b shows the removal agent entering through the mother substrate and a horizontal network of channels. The through-holes will look like pipes for chemicals (such as acids, solvents, or organic solvents) used to remove the sacrificial layer. The chemical will flow through these pipes and penetrate down to the top of the sacrificial layer, wet the sacrificial layer, and chemically attack the sacrificial layer material. In an experiment to verify such through-hole pipes, a metal sacrificial layer was steamed, and a 10-5 μm polymer layer was spin-coated on the glass of Coming 1737. After the through holes are defined by lithography and the holes are made by reactive ion etching, the sample is immersed in a 20 acid solution. The acid solution will enter the top surface of the sacrificial layer through the through-hole pipes to engrav the sacrificial layer and expand laterally. When the acid solution moves laterally and etches the sacrificial layer, the polymer coating is separated. With the further development of this separation procedure, the area of its separation gradually increased. As shown in Figures 5, 12, and 13, through-holes for chemical agents to approach the sacrificial layer can be provided in the base material of the mother 23,2004,043,340, the description of the invention, and the base material is a reusable material as described above. . By removing the sacrificial layer, the element structure and circuits on the laminated film can be released from the mother substrate. As mentioned above, the system made by the method of the present invention can be deployed on another substrate after it is released from the 5 mother substrate. The method of the present invention will be particularly suitable for manufacturing systems for deployment on flexible or non-planar substrates. These substrates may be temporary substrates or permanent substrates. After a system is released and transferred to the final substrate, or after the system is covered with the final substrate and separated from the parent substrate, an additional encapsulation step 10 may be performed. For example, if the components of the system are sandwiched between the final substrate and another appropriately selected material, and are located at or near a curved neutral plane, the stress on the system components will be reduced . The technology of the present invention uniquely allows high-quality and stress-reducing system components to be sandwiched in this way, further enhancing their adaptability and durability. Therefore, the method of the present invention 15 may also include the step of laying a layer on the cover material side of the system to form a structure that substantially positions the system in a neutral plane with reduced bending stress. As mentioned above, the invention disclosed herein includes a concept and manufacturing technology that can be applied to the manufacture of various systems and components of various systems, including 20 but not limited to transistors, diodes, electronic components, chemical components, Biological components, biochemical components, μ-body components, micro-electro-mechanical components, sensors, fuel cells, optoelectronic components, photovoltaic cells, optical structures, microelectronic components; displays' or circuit board systems, etc. Such chemical elements, biological elements, and biochemical elements include, but are not limited to, reactors. These systems can also be designed 24 200404340, invention description on small or large area substrates, and even on flexible substrates. These systems can also be built side-by-side "combined" on a large area substrate to create a single system or multiple systems. Moreover, the present invention can also be used to fabricate a multi-layered two-dimensional structure. These can also include micro fuel cells, photovoltaic cells, or 5 chemical reactor elements on a substrate. Fig. 9 shows a conceptual application of the present invention, that is, to make a "smart circuit board", which includes various components such as optical, optoelectronic, and electronic components. Some of these components can be fabricated directly, while others can be connected after the system is placed on the mother substrate. The system can be transferred to the final substrate (that is, the "substrate" in this example) after release, or the "10 substrate" layer can be attached to the system before the system is released. (Process example) (1) Process example mainly using a vertical remover passage. Figures 1 to 8 show a flow example of a removal process using a vertical passage. Figure 1 shows a sacrificial (first release) layer deposited on a smooth "mother" substrate, such as glass, quartz, fused silica, metal flakes, silicon, or any other flat surface. After being deposited on the mother substrate, the sacrificial layer is stabilized by a previously described process such as annealing. If necessary, one or most of the intermediate layers may be provided under the sacrificial layer. Figure 2 shows the deposition of a cover layer. 20 to 70 of these systems will be fabricated on the cover layer (see Figure 3). This is the first "building layer". All deposition steps can be accomplished by various means, including spin coating, physical deposition, chemical deposition, and chemical reactions. This cover layer also protects the sacrificial layer, provided that the material with a high surface-to-volume ratio is as shown in the figure. For example, when highly porous columnar silicon (see Figure 11) is used as the sacrificial layer, then 200404340 发明, invention description / oxygen-cut phase and pure micro-oxidation, or only column-cut Slight oxidation will preserve the structure of this high surface-to-volume sacrificial material. The further stabilization of such films may include the removal of hydrogen from the surface and the bulk via an annealing or chemical process. Figure 3 shows the element structure of the system at the time of manufacture. The first diagram shows an optional step: creating a recessed area (such as dry, wet, or laser melting) surrounding the structure of these elements, and sinking-sacrificial material as shown (the Two release layers) to fill these grooves. This material can be the same or different in the material of the first sacrificial layer, and it can replace (as shown in Fig. 4) a part of the first sacrificial layer, or it can be replaced (not shown). Including step ′ shown in Figure 4 can provide complete or at least partial mechanical, thermal, and electrical isolation of these system components during construction, as can be inferred from Figure 6b. 15 20 Regardless of whether the steps shown in Figure 4 are included, more building layers can also be provided as shown in Figure 5, for example, in Figure 5, it is shown that the polymer layer is deposited or adhered to These system components are structurally. The layers can also be formed in several layering steps 'and electrical interconnections or other structures of the system can also be provided in these building layers' and can be connected to vias (not shown) Other system components. -Or all of these building layers will form the final substrate or will first form a carrier layer to allow the system to be positioned on its final substrate. However, in any case, this bearing or final layer can be a film or plastic and is flexible. Vertical through holes, etc. can be made in these building layers by some process steps such as cutting or refining, as shown. It can be seen in the% chart, and the waiting hole can be edited to the first and second sacrificial layers—when the layer is provided. 26 200404340 (ii) Description of the invention Using these vertical vias, the second sacrificial material, when present, can also be gasified (gas escapes from the vias), dissolved (solvents enter through the vias), or etched (Etchant enters through vias) and the like. This second sacrificial layer can be removed first (as shown in Figures 6a and 6b), and then the fifth sacrificial layer can be removed (by the same or other means); or they can be removed in the same step (not Shows). However, in both cases, the first sacrificial layer is the key to separation from the mother substrate, and it must be removed by vaporization, dissolution, or etching. This is located at the bottom of Figure 7. Figure 8 shows the final result after the processing of Figure 7. These overlying island blocks may (as shown) 10 or may not be retained (not shown). At this point, the structure of Figure 8 can be bonded to other substrates as described above; or it can be further processed to cover the bottom with more material to improve mechanical strength and / or environmental durability; Or both are performed; and it can also be used with at least the top of the building layers as the final substrate. If more material is deposited or adhered to the bottom, the system components can be placed on or near the neutral plane of the final structure. Obvious changes in this process can also be used, including those that pass through the parent substrate (not shown) to access the sacrificial layer (or such sacrificial layers, if the isolation method of Figure 4 is used). Vertical through holes and so on. Please note that the system in Figure 20 was created using a process with the steps in Figure 4. Transistors made in this way will exhibit excellent performance on flexible substrates.

Fresh reagents, reactants, removal and removal agents, pathways near the sacrificial layer, etc., or both can be passed through the channels to accelerate the process. This method can reduce the exposure time to the remover. It also enables the process designer to have more material selectivity. In this example, as mentioned previously, the mother substrate can provide mechanical and temperature stability to the ι0 and other components during the manufacturing process. The substrate must be mechanically stable for holding transfer, temperature stable at high temperatures, and have a coefficient of expansion compatible with the selected material. The material selection of the mother substrate includes, but is not limited to, semiconductors (such as silicon wafers or wafers), glass, fused silica, quartz, ceramics (such as alumina), and metals (such as steel). 15 The micro-size or nano-channels in this variation of separation can be formed using a variety of methods, including ... sacrificial layer treatment, surface micromachining, block micromachining 'cladding technology, and combinations thereof. The micro-scale or nano-channels can be a permanent structure of the mother substrate, or they can be removed in the sacrificial layer engraving or in subsequent processes. In some cases, as detailed below, the network of channels may also be part of the mother substrate, and the step of closing the channels is completed when a sacrificial layer is deposited. One embodiment of the present invention that uses channels to facilitate separation is characterized by the use of a method of manufacturing a closed cover channel structure. This structure is completed by using a non-uniform thin film deposition process to form a high aspect ratio trench pattern on a hard, smooth, high-temperature substrate. This is shown in Figures 10 (a) to (C). Figures 10 (d) to (g) show the subsequent system processes and the separation procedure of the present invention as described above. The heterogeneous thin film deposition shown in Figures 10 (b) and (c) can be easily completed by a physical vapor deposition process such as evaporation and 5 sputtering. In addition, relatively uniform deposition technologies, such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), etc., can also be selected by appropriate processing parameters (such as source gas temperature, source gas flow rate, Substrate temperature, processing pressure). For example, 'a southerly processing M force can be used in the CVD process, which can increase the probability of scattering of deposits near the trench opening by 10 (reducing the average free path), which will make it near the opening. Produces more deposited film than on the bottom or sidewalls of the trench. Similar results can also be achieved by controlling other appropriate processing parameters. After the cover layer closes the openings of the grooves, the deposition of this layer or the subsequent layers can be used to flatten the surface of the substrate. If necessary, chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) can also be used for planarization. The deposition of the flat cover layer has been completed in the imaginary figure, and this layer will be used as the sacrificial release layer after the manufacturing of the system. In the order of FIG. 10 (d), a cover material It will be deposited on the sacrificial layer. 20 This cover material will be used as a barrier layer to isolate the chemical processing step. The material, thickness and related properties of this barrier layer will be selected to be retained after the system manufacturing and separation process Down. This cover layer can also be formed by changing the magic top of the sacrificial layer (such as thermal oxidation). When the manufacturing of these components is completed, as shown in Figure 10 (f),-or most 29 200404340 40, the final description of the invention The building layer (such as plastic, glass, etc.) will be deposited or overlaid. It will form the system and release it to a branch of a new final substrate and transfer the media. However, it can also be the Final substrate. During the release step, the channel network will be exposed to appropriate chemicals, gases, and other removal agents, 5 or combinations thereof, to selectively remove the sacrificial release layer. When a chemical is used to dissolve or In the release layer, these microfluidic structures will form a rapid supply mechanism of chemical agents due to strong capillary action. When a reactive gas or plasma is used as a remover, these microchannel structures can also be It is used as a fast gas supply path for the reactants. In any case, its release time and any possible damage to these components will be minimized. Figure 10 (g) shows a separated The system and the mother substrate can be reused. The aforementioned covering method from the upper closed channel will form an open channel for removing the sacrificial layer. Alternatively, the sacrificial layer can also be built in the channel network. 15 and Both pass through the mother substrate. The channels in the mother substrate can be filled with the sacrificial material in a lift-off manner, and the deposition of the sacrificial material can be continued to cover the entire mother substrate. Materials, or a particle method can also be used. The particles shown in these channels are only visible in Figure 12 and Figures na and 13b. One of the sacrificial layer removers will clear these channels, and Their larger sections can be used for The agent accelerates to the rest (particulate or non-particulate) of the sacrificial layer. In Figure 13a, the channel removal step is shown at an earlier stage of its process, which further confirms the tunability of its process when necessary. ^ In Figure 13a, the remover will advance to the channel (not shown) in the _ direction, and then reach the sacrificial layer of the entire surface. In Figure 30 200404340, the description of invention 13b, 'The remover These channels will be reached by vertical through holes provided in the mother substrate, as shown, and then to the entire surface of the sacrificial layer. Figure 12A Figure A—Single or multi-layer nano-type microspheres The coating is provided on a substrate. The coating may include a self-combination agent (molecule), a space 5 composition ', or a field-assisted composition. The planarization of the nano or microsphere layer (Figure 12B) may be This can be accomplished by spinning (sog) on glass, reflowing the oxide, or any other suitable material and method. Fig. 12C shows a system made on the planarized surface. Figure 12D shows the carrier or final substrate being overlaid or deposited after the system has been manufactured. Figure 12E & F shows the formation of a through-hole 10 t structure, which will penetrate into the sphere layer from both sides of the structure (ie, E or ρ map), and form a pipe for the removal agent to enter to remove the Sphere layer. Figure 12G shows that after removing the sphere layer, the system has been separated by the parent substrate. Figures 13a-A and B show the use of method 15 of Figures 12 & Figures na-c show the use of appropriate methods to make a system on this channel structure. A transfer layer such as a plastic or polymer film can be deposited or overlaid on the finished system. Figures 13a-D and E show that when the system is made, the channel structure has come into contact with a chemical agent, which will, for example, flow through the channels by capillary action and attack 20 of the channel structure and components. Between the ionosphere. This will separate (release) the system (top half of the figure) from the mother substrate. Figures 13b-A do not show the method described in Figures 12A to C. In addition to the element manufacturing steps, the channel is formed and the micro-size or nano-microspheres are formed. In Figures 13b-E One element will be made on the structure. Section 31 200404340 发明, Description of Invention 13b-C shows that the bottom or top of the structure is deeply filled with microsphere channels, and the structure's hole will be formed. Figures 13b-D and E show the use of the channel structure, beakers, etc. to remove the release layer and microspheres. This will separate the top (element portion) from the mother substrate. 5 [圏 式 简 解Figure 1 shows the deposition of a sacrificial layer on a hard and smooth surface mother substrate with an appropriate coating technique; Figure 2 shows a cover layer over the sacrificial layer, Figure 3 shows A functional system is formed on the cover layer; FIG. 4 shows that the trenches surrounding the functional system components are etched down to the first sacrificial layer, and are removed by conventional techniques such as top surface removal (Hft-〇ff ) Method to fill the trenches with a second sacrificial material; Figures 5a (section) and 5b (top view) show a polymer layer Let us consider the formation of becons; 丨 Figures 6a (cross-section) and 6b (top view) show that the second sacrificial material is removed; Figure 7 does not show that the sacrificial layer is removed and made on a polymer substrate The integrated system is shown in Fig. 8.
