Description
- The present disclosure relates generally to an interposer film for integrated circuit packaging comprising a plurality of electrically conductive domains supported by a substrate. More specifically the substrate is a polyimide film comprising a sub-micron filler and a polyimide having a hybrid backbone structure.
- IC packaging technology is applied to IC chips: (1) to provide a path for the electrical current that powers the circuits on the chip; (2) to distribute the signals on to and off of the chip; (3) to remove the heat generated directly or indirectly by the IC chip; and (4) to support and protect the chip from hostile environments. A typical ball grid array (BGA) IC package includes an IC chip affixed to a flexible polyimide interposer film. In such BGA type IC packaging applications, a thin wire bond is used to connect a pad on the IC chip to a conductive trace on the polyimide interposer film. The conductive trace is routed to a solder ball. The solder ball is one of an array of solder balls mounted to the opposite side of the polyimide interposer film and protruding from the bottom of the BGA package. These solder balls interconnect with an array of pads located on a substrate, such as a printed circuit board. Accordingly, the typical BGA package electrically connects each pad on an IC to a pad on a printed circuit board.
- In such packaging applications, processing temperatures can at times be very high, e.g., above 300° C. At such high operating temperatures the interposer film can exhibit dimensional distortion. Also, attempts to decrease processing costs can require reel-to-reel operations at increasingly higher tensions and such high tension processing can also cause an interposer film to exhibit dimensional distortion. A trend in the industry is toward less tolerance for dimensional distortion (exhibited by the interposer film), because the IC chip, the IC packaging and the associated circuitry is ever decreasing in size with every new generation in order to lower production costs. A need therefore exists in the industry for polyimide interposer films for IC packaging applications having improved thermal and dimensional stability.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,770,981 to Jiang et al. is directed to composite interposer films for BGA packaging applications.
- The present disclosure is directed to an interposer film for IC packaging comprising a plurality of electrically conductive domains supported by a substrate having a thickness from 5 to 150 microns. The substrate comprises a polyimide derived from:
- i) at least one aromatic dianhydride component selected from the group consisting of: rigid rod dianhydride, non-rigid rod dianhydride and combinations thereof, and
- ii) at least one aromatic diamine component selected from the group consisting of: rigid rod diamine, non-rigid rod diamine and combinations thereof.
- The mole ratio of dianhydride to diamine is 48-52:52-48 and the ratio of X:Y is 20-80:80-20 where X is the mole percent of rigid rod dianhydride and rigid rod diamine, and Y is the mole percent of non-rigid rod dianhydride and non-rigid rod diamine based upon the total dianhydride component and total diamine component of the polyimide. The substrate also comprises a sub-micron filler that is less than 550 nanometers (as a numerical average) in at least one dimension, has an aspect ratio greater than 3:1, is less than the substrate thickness in all dimensions, and is present in an amount from 10 to 45 volume percent of the substrate.

The electrically conductive domains are supported by the polymide films of the present disclosure. The electrically conductive domains provide, at least in part, the electrically conductive interface between the IC chip and subject matter that is not part of the IC chip. The electrically conductive interface allows: i. the IC chip to control (or influence) subject matter that is not part of the IC chip (e.g., circuitry on a printed wiring board, input/output devices or the like); and/or ii. allows control (or influence) upon the IC chip by subject matter that is not part of the IC chip (e.g., an electrical connection to power the IC chip).
- “Film” is intended to mean a free-standing film or a (self-supporting or non self-supporting) coating. The term “film” is used interchangeably with the term “layer” and refers to covering a desired area.
- “Dianhydride” as used herein is intended to include precursors or derivatives thereof, which may not technically be a dianhydride but would nevertheless functionally equivalent due to the capability of reacting with a diamine to form a polyamic acid which in turn could be converted into a polyimide.
- “Diamine” as used herein is intended to include precursors or derivatives thereof, which may not technically be diamines but are nevertheless functionally equivalent due to the capability of reacting with a dianhydride to form a polyamic acid which in turn could be converted into a polyimide.
- “Polyamic acid” as used herein is intended to include any polyimide precursor material derived from a combination of dianhydride and diamine monomers or functional equivalents thereof and capable of conversion to a polyimide.
- “Sub-micron” is intended to describe particles having (as a numerical average) at least one dimension that is less than a micron.
- “Chemical conversion” or “chemically converted” as used herein denotes the use of a catalyst (accelerator) or dehydrating agent (or both) to convert the polyamic acid to polyimide and is intended to include a partially chemically converted polyimide which is then dried at elevated temperatures to a solids level greater than 98%.
- “Aspect ratio” is intended to mean a ratio of one dimension to another, such as a ratio of length to height.
- In describing certain polymers it should be understood that sometimes applicants are referring to the polymers by the monomers used to make them or the amounts of the monomers used to make them. While such a description may not include the specific nomenclature used to describe the final polymer or may not contain product-by-process terminology, any such reference to monomers and amounts should be interpreted to mean that the polymer is made from those monomers, unless the context indicates or implies otherwise.
- As used herein, the terms “comprises,” “comprising,” “includes,” “including,” “has,” “having” or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a method, process, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements is not necessarily limited to only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such method, process, article, or apparatus. Further, unless expressly stated to the contrary, “or” refers to an inclusive or and not to an exclusive or. For example, a condition A or B is satisfied by any one of the following: A is true (or present) and B is false (or not present), A is false (or not present) and B is true (or present), and both A and B are true (or present).
- Also, articles “a” or “an” are employed to describe elements and components of the invention. This is done merely for convenience and to give a general sense of the invention. This description should be read to include one or at least one and the singular also includes the plural unless it is obvious that it is meant otherwise.
- The interposer film of the present disclosure has a plurality of electrically conductive domains supported by a substrate. The substrate of the present disclosure comprises a polyimide and a sub-micron filler. The sub-micron filler of the present disclosure can generally be incorporated into the substrate at relatively high loadings without causing the substrate to be unduly brittle while maintaining or decreasing coefficient of thermal expansion and increasing storage modulus. The polyimide has a hybrid backbone structure comprising rigid rod portions and non-rigid rod portions. The interposer films of the present disclosure are well adapted for any IC packaging technology utilizing an interposer film in roll-to-roll or reel-to-reel processing.
- The polyimides of the present disclosure are derived from the polymerization reaction of certain aromatic dianhydrides with certain aromatic diamines to provide a polymeric backbone structure that comprises both rigid rod portions and non-rigid rod portions. The rigid rod portions arise from the polymerization of aromatic rigid rod monomers into the polyimide, and the non-rigid rod portions arise from the polymerization of non-rigid rod aromatic monomers into the polyimide. Aromatic rigid rod monomers give a co-linear (about 180°) configuration to the polymer backbone, and therefore relatively little movement capability, when polymerized into a polyimide.
- Examples of aromatic rigid rod diamine monomers are
- 1,4-diaminobenzene (PPD),
- 4,4′-diaminobiphenyl,
- 2,2′-bis(trifluoromethyl) 4,4′-diaminobiphenyl (TFMB),
- 1,4-naphthalenediamine,
- 1,5-naphthalenediamine,
- 4,4″-diamino terphenyl,
- 4,4′-diamino benzanilide
- 4,4′-diaminophenyl benzoate,
- 3,3′-dimethyl-4,4′-diaminobiphenyl,
- 2,5-diaminotoluene, and
- the like.
- Examples of aromatic rigid rod dianhydride monomers are:
- pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA),
- 2,3,6,7-Naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride, and
- 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA).
Monomers having a freedom of rotational movement or bending (once polymerized into a polyimide) substantially equal to or less than the above examples (of rigid rod diamines and rigid rod dianhydrides) are intended to be deemed rigid rod monomers for purposes of this disclosure. - Non-rigid rod monomers for purposes of this disclosure are intended to mean aromatic monomers capable of polymerizing into a polyimide backbone structure having substantially greater freedom of movement compared to the rigid rod monomers described and exemplified above. The non rigid rod monomers, when polymerized into a polyimide, provide a backbone structure having a bend or otherwise are not co-linear along the polyimide backbone they create (e.g., are not about 180°). Examples of non-rigid rod monomers in accordance with the present disclosure include any diamine and any dianhydride capable of providing a rotational or bending bridging group along the polyimide backbone. Examples of rotational or bending bridging groups include —O—, —S—, —SO2—, —C(O)—, —C(CH3)2—, —C(CF3)2—, and —C(R,R′)— where R and R′ are the same or different and are any organic group capable of bonding to a carbon.
- Examples of non-rigid rod diamines include: 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether (“ODA”), 2,2-bis-(4-aminophenyl) propane, 1,3-diaminobenzene (MPD), 4,4′-diaminobenzophenone, 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane, 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl sulfide, 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone, 3,3′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone, bis-(4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl sulfone (BAPS), 4,4′-bis-(aminophenoxy)biphenyl (BAPB), 3,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether, 4,4′-diaminobenzophenone, 4,4′-isopropylidenedianiline, 2,2′-bis-(3-aminophenyl)propane, N,N-bis-(4-aminophenyl)-n-butylamine, N,N-bis-(4-aminophenyl)methylamine, m-amino benzoyl-p-amino anilide, 4-aminophenyl-3-aminobenzoate, N,N-bis-(4-aminophenyl)aniline, 2,4-diaminotoluene, 2,6-diaminotoluene, 2,4-diamine-5-chlorotoluene, 2,4-diamino-6-chlorotoluene, 2,4-bis-(beta-amino-t-butyl)toluene, bis-(p-beta-amino-t-butyl phenyl)ether, p-bis-2-(2-methyl-4-aminopentyl)benzene, m-xylylene diamine, p-xylylene diamine. 1,2-bis-(4-aminophenoxy)benzene, 1,3-bis-(4-aminophenoxy)benzene, 1,2-bis-(3-aminophenoxy)benzene, 1,3-bis-(3-aminophenoxy)benzene, 1-(4-aminophenoxy)-3-(3-aminophenoxy)benzene, 1,4-bis-(4-aminophenoxy)benzene, 1,4-bis-(3-aminophenoxy)benzene, 1-(4-aminophenoxy)-4-(3-aminophenoxy)benzene, 2,2-bis-(4-[4-aminophenoxy]phenyl)propane (BAPP), 2,2′-bis-(4-aminophenyl)-hexafluoro propane (6F diamine), 2,2′-bis-(4-phenoxy aniline) isopropylidene, 4,4′-diamino-2,2′-trifluoromethyl diphenyloxide, 3,3′-diamino-5,5′-trifluoromethyl diphenyloxide, 4,4′-trifluoromethyl-2,2′-diaminobiphenyl, 2,4,6-trimethyl-1,3-diaminobenzene, 4,4′-oxy-bis-[2-trifluoromethyl)benzene amine] (1,2,4-OBABTF), 4,4′-oxy-bis-[3-trifluoromethyl)benzene amine], 4,4′-thio-bis-[(2-trifluoromethyl)benzene-amine], 4,4′-thiobis[(3-trifluoromethyl)benzene amine], 4,4′-sulfoxyl-bis-[(2-trifluoromethyl)benzene amine, 4,4′-sulfoxy]-bis-[(3-trifluoromethyl)benzene amine], and 4,4′-keto-bis-[(2-trifluoromethyl)benzene amine].
- Examples of non-rigid rod aromatic dianhydrides include 2,2′,3,3′-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride, 2,3,3′,4′-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride, 3,3′,4,4′-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA), 2,2′,3,3′-biphenyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride, 2,3,3′,4′-biphenyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride, 4,4′-thio-diphthalic anhydride, bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)sulfone dianhydride (DSDA), bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)sulfoxide dianhydride, 4,4′-oxydiphthalic anhydride (ODPA), bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)thio ether dianhydride, 2,2-Bis[4-(3,4-dicarboxyphenoxy)phenyl]propane dianhydride (BPADA), bisphenol S dianhydride, 2,2-bis-(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl) 1,1,1,3,3,3,-hexafluoropropane dianhydride (6FDA), 5,5-[2,2,2]-trifluoro-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethylidene, bis-1,3-isobenzofurandione, bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)methane dianhydride, cyclopentadienyl tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride, ethylene tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride, 2,2-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)propane dianhydride.
- In some embodiments, the mole ratio of dianhydride to diamine is 48-52:52-48 and the ratio of X:Y is 20-80:80-20 where X is the mole percent of rigid rod dianhydride and rigid rod diamine, and Y is the mole percent of non-rigid rod dianhydride and non-rigid rod diamine based upon the total dianhydride component and diamine component of the polyimide. And in alternative embodiments can be any sub-range within that broad ratio (e.g., 20-80 includes any range between and optionally including 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75 and 80, and 80-20 includes any range between and optionally including 80, 75, 70, 65, 60, 55, 45, 40, 35, 30, and 25).
- In one embodiment, the polyimide of the present disclosure is derived from substantially equal molar amounts of 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether (4,4′-ODA) non-rigid rod monomer, and pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA), rigid rod monomer. In another embodiment, at least 70 mole percent of the aromatic dianhydride component is pyromellitic dianhydride; and at least 70 mole percent of the aromatic diamine component is 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether. In some embodiments, at least 70, 75, 80, 85, 90 or 95 mole percent of the aromatic dianhydride component is pyromellitic dianhydride (based upon total dianhydride content of the polyimide); and at least 70, 75, 80, 85, 90 or 95 mole percent of the aromatic diamine component is 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether (based upon total diamine content of the polyimide). Such PMDA//4,4′ODA polyimides have been found to be particularly well suited for combination with the sub-micron fillers of the present disclosure, for improved properties at a relatively low cost. In another embodiment, the polyimide is derived from 100 mole percent pyromellitic dianhydride and 100 mole percent 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether. In another embodiment, the polyimide is a random copolymer derived from 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether and 1,4 diaminobenzene with pyromellitic dianhydride and 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride. In yet another embodiment, the polyimide is a random copolymer derived from 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether and 1,4 diaminobenzene with pyromellitic dianhydride.
- In another embodiment, at least 75 mole percent of the aromatic dianhydride is pyromellitic dianhydride and 70 mole percent 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether and 30 mole percent 1,4 diaminobenzene as the aromatic diamine component.
- In another embodiment, the polyimide is a block copolymer. A block copolymer is a polymer in which there are sequences of substantially one dianhydride/diamine combination along the polymer backbone as opposed to a completely random distribution of monomer sequences. Typically this is achieved by sequential addition of different monomers during the polyamic acid preparation.
- In yet another embodiment, the polyimide is block copolymer derived from 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether and 1,4-diaminobenzene with pyromellitic dianhydride. In yet another embodiment, the polyimide is a block copolymer is derived from 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether (4,4′-ODA) and 1,4-diaminobenzene (PPD) with pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA). In yet another embodiment, the polyimide is a block copolymer consisting of substantially rigid blocks (PMDA reacted with PPD) and substantially more flexible blocks (PMDA reacted with ODA). In another embodiment, the block copolymer is derived from 10 to 40 mole percent blocks of pyromellitic dianhydride and 1,4-diaminobenzene and from 90 to 60 mole percent blocks of pyromellitic dianhydride and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether.
- In accordance with the present disclosure, the filler is a sub-micron (in at least one dimension) filler or a mixture of sub-micron fillers.
- In one embodiment, the polyimide film of the present disclosure comprises at least one sub-micron filler, the sub-micron filler:
-
- 1. being less than 550 nanometers (and in some embodiments, less than 475, 450, 425, 400, 375, 350, 325, 300, 275, 250, 225, or 200 nanometers) in at least one dimension (since fillers can have a variety of shapes in any dimension and since filler shape can vary along any dimension, the “at least one dimension” is intended to be a numerical average along that dimension);
- 2. having an average aspect ratio greater than 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 to 1;
- 3. being less than 100, 95, 90, 85, 80, 75, 70, 65, 60, 55, 50, 45, 40, 35, 30, 25, 20, 15 or 10 percent of the substrate thickness in all dimensions; and
- 4. being present in an amount between and optionally including any two of the following percentages: 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, and 45 volume percent of the substrate.
- Suitable sub-micron fillers are generally stable at temperatures above 300, 350, 400, 425 or 450° C., and in some embodiments do not significantly decrease the electrical insulation properties of the substrate. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is selected from a group consisting of needle-like fillers (acicular), fibrous fillers, platelet fillers and mixtures thereof. In one embodiment, the sub-micron filler is substantially non-aggregated. The sub-micron filler can be hollow, porous, or solid.
- In one embodiment, the sub-micron fillers of the present disclosure exhibit an aspect ratio of at least 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 to 1. In one embodiment, the sub-micron filler aspect ratio is 5:1 or greater. In another embodiment, the sub-micron filler aspect ratio is 10:1 or greater, and in another embodiment, the aspect ratio is 12:1 or greater. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is selected from a group consisting of oxides (e.g., oxides comprising silicon, magnesium and/or aluminum), nitrides (e.g., nitrides comprising boron and/or silicon), carbides (e.g., carbides comprising tungsten and/or silicon) and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is acicular titanium dioxide, talc, SiC fiber, platy Al2O3 or mixtures thereof. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is less than (as a numerical average) 50, 25, 20, 15, 12, 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, or 2 microns in all dimensions.
- In yet another embodiment, carbon fiber and graphite can be used in combination with other sub-micron fillers to increase mechanical properties. However in one embodiment, the loading of graphite, carbon fiber and/or electrically conductive fillers may need to be below the percolation threshold (perhaps less than 10 volume percent), since graphite and carbon fiber fillers can diminish electrical insulation properties and in some embodiments, diminished electrical insulation properties are not desirable.
- In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is coated with a coupling agent. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is coated with an aminosilane coupling agent. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is coated with a dispersant. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is coated with a combination of a coupling agent and a dispersant. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is coated with a coupling agent, a dispersant or a combination thereof. Alternatively, the coupling agent and/or dispersant can be incorporated directly into the film and not necessarily coated onto the sub-micron filler. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler comprises a acicular titanium dioxide, at least a portion of which is coated with an aluminum oxide.
- In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is chosen so that it does not itself degrade or produce off-gasses at the desired processing temperatures. Likewise in some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is chosen so that it does not contribute to degradation of the polymer.
- In one embodiment, filler composites (e.g. single or multiple core/shell structures) can be used, in which one oxide encapsulates another oxide in one particle.
- It has been discovered that relatively less expensive polyimides can be filled with sub-micron filler of the present disclosure and thereby perform, at least in some ways, more similarly to more expensive polyimides, but at a much lower cost. More expensive monomers such as BPDA or fluorinated monomers can at least in part (or entirely) be replaced with less expensive monomers. In addition to expensive monomers, some polyimides are more difficult to process commercially, such as BPDA//PPD due to blistering. Lower production rates drive up the cost of the film. Additionally, polyimides derived from all rigid rod monomers may have low CTE and high modulus but when filled have low elongation. It has been found that the submicron fillers that have an aspect ratio of 3:1 or greater can be incorporated at relatively high loading levels (10 to 45 volume percent) into less expensive, easily processable polyimides. The sub-micron filler of the present disclosure tends to increase the storage modulus and decrease or approximately maintain the CTE of the substrate of the present disclosure with out causing the substrate to become unduly brittle.
- It is surprising that the sub-micron filler of the present disclosure may not behave in the same manner in all polyimides. Surprisingly in a rigid rod polyimide (BPDA//PPD) the CTE may be greater than in unfilled rigid rod polyimide.
- The sub-micron filler of the present disclosure, when incorporated into the polyimides of the present disclosure, produce substrates having better properties (or balance of properties) compared to their conventional non-high aspect ratio (less than 3:1 aspect ratio) counterparts.
- In some embodiments, the substrate comprises a polyimide derived from 100 mole percent of pyromellitic dianhydride as the aromatic dianhydride component; and 100 mole percent 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether as the aromatic diamine component and the sub-micron filler is acicular titanium dioxide, talc, SiC fiber, platy Al2O3 or mixture thereof. In some embodiments, the polyimide is a homopolymer of pyromellitic dianhydride and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether.
- In another embodiment, the substrate comprises a polyimide wherein the polyimide is block copolymer derived from: 10 to 40 mole percent blocks of pyromellitic dianhydride and 1,4 diaminobenzene; from 90 to 60 mole percent blocks of pyromellitic dianhydride and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether and the sub-micron filler is acicular Titanium dioxide, talc, SiC fiber, platy Al2O3 or mixture thereof.
- While it is generally known that the addition of filler will decrease CTE and increase storage modulus, it is surprising, that for the sub-micron fillers of the present disclosure, there is a threshold above which a significant increase in storage modulus and/or a decrease in CTE is observed. In one embodiment, the sub-micron filler will substantially maintain (within 80, 70. 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 percent, plus or minus) the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) while improving mechanical and thermal properties.
- In one embodiment, the substrates of the present disclosure have an in-plane CTE in a range between (and optionally including) any two of the following: 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 ppm/° C., where the in-plane coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) is measured between 60° C. (or 50° C.) and 350° C.
- Some unfilled block or random copolymers of the present disclosure can have a relatively low CTE. Thus, in some embodiments, sub-micron fillers of the present disclosure have little impact on a block copolymer CTE. In some embodiments, the sub-micron fillers of the present disclosure may increase the CTE of block or random copolymers having a low CTE but the CTE is still maintained in a desirable range. The thickness of a substrate can also impact CTE, where thinner films tend to give a lower CTE (and thicker films, a higher CTE), and therefore, substrate thickness can be used to fine tune substrate CTE, depending upon any particular application selected. The substrates of the present disclosure have a thickness in a range between (and optionally including) any of the following thicknesses (in microns): 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125 and 150 microns. Monomers and sub-micron fillers within the scope of the present disclosure can also be selected or optimized to fine tune CTE within the above range. Ordinary skill and experimentation may be necessary in fine tuning any particular CTE of the substrates of the present disclosure, depending upon the particular application. In some embodiments, the in-plane CTE of the substrate can be obtained by thermomechanical analysis utilizing a TA Instruments TMA-2940 run at 10° C./min, up to 400° C., then cooled and reheated to 400° C., with the CTE in ppm/° C. obtained during the reheat scan between 50° C. and 350° C. In another embodiment, the in-plane CTE of the film can be obtained by Thermal Mechanical Analysis (TA Instruments, TMA-2940, heat 10° C./min, up to 460° C., then cooled and reheat to 500° C.) was evaluated between 50-350° C. on the reheat. In another embodiment, the in-plane CTE of the film can be obtained by Thermal Mechanical Analysis (TA Instruments, TMA-2940, heat 10° C./min, up to 380° C., then cooled and reheated to 380° C.) and evaluated between 50-350° C. on the reheat.
- In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler increases the storage modulus above the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the polyimide. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler of the present disclosure increases the storage modulus at 25° C. at least 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 or 30% compared to sub-micron filler having an aspect ratio less than 3:1. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler of the present disclosure increases the storage modulus at 480° C. to 500° C. at least 40, 42, 44 or 46% compared to sub-micron filler having an aspect ration less than 3:1. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler of the present disclosure increases the storage modulus at 25° C. at least 38, 40, 42, 44 or 46% compared to unfilled polyimide. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler of the present disclosure increases the storage modulus at 480° C. to 500° C. at least 52, 53, 54 or 55% compared to unfilled polyimide.
- Typically, as the amount of filler increases in a film, the more brittle and difficult to process the film tends to become. Typically when tensile elongation is less than 20 percent, films are difficult to process, thus, are of limited commercial value. It is surprising that when the sub-micron fillers of the present disclosure are added to a polyimide having a mole ratio of dianhydride to diamine of 48-52:52-48 and the ratio of X:Y is 20-80:80-20 where X is the mole percent of rigid rod dianhydride and rigid rod diamine, and Y is the mole percent of non-rigid rod dianhydride and non-rigid rod diamine, the tensile elongation remains acceptable. In some embodiments, the tensile elongation remains acceptable when greater than 10 volume percent of the sub-micron filler is used. In one embodiment, the tensile elongation remains acceptable when greater than 30 volume percent of the sub-micron filler is used. In yet another embodiment, the tensile elongation remains acceptable when greater than 40 volume percent of the sub-micron filler is used.
- Generally, when forming the polyimide, a chemical conversion process (as opposed to a thermal conversion process) will provide a lower CTE polyimide film. Thus, while the advantages of the present disclosure can be seen for both chemically or thermally converted polyimides, the advantages of incorporating the sub-micron filler of the present disclosure may be most useful for chemically converted polyimides of the present disclosure.
- Substrates of the present disclosure can be made by methods well known in the art. In some embodiments, the substrate can be produced by combining the above monomers together with a solvent to form a polyamic acid (also called a polyamide acid solution). The dianhydride and diamine components are typically combined in a molar ratio of aromatic dianhydride component to aromatic diamine component of from 0.90 to 1.10. Molecular weight can be adjusted by adjusting the molar ratio of the dianhydride and diamine components.
- Chemical or thermal conversion can be used in the practice of the present disclosure. In instances where chemical conversion is used, a polyamic acid casting solution is derived from the polyamic acid solution. In one embodiment, the polyamic acid casting solution comprises the polyamic acid solution combined with conversion chemicals, such as: (i) one or more dehydrating agents, such as, aliphatic acid anhydrides (acetic anhydride, etc.) and aromatic acid anhydrides; and (ii) one or more catalysts, such as, aliphatic tertiary amines (triethylamine, etc.), aromatic tertiary amines (dimethylaniline, etc) and heterocyclic tertiary amines (pyridine, picoline, isoquinoline, etc). The anhydride dehydrating material is often used in a molar excess of the amount of amide acid groups in the copolyamic acid. The amount of acetic anhydride used is typically about 2.0-3.0 moles per equivalent of amide acid. Generally, a comparable amount of tertiary amine catalyst is used.
- In one embodiment, the polyamic acid is dissolved in an organic solvent at a concentration from about 5 weight percent up to and including 40 weight percent. In one embodiment, the polyamic acid is dissolved in an organic solvent at a concentration of about 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 or 40 weight percent. Examples of suitable solvents include: formamide solvents (N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-diethylformamide, etc.), acetamide solvents (N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-diethylacetamide, etc.), pyrrolidone solvents (N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone, etc.), phenol solvents (phenol, o-, m- or p-cresol, xylenol, halogenated phenols, catechol, etc.), hexamethylphosphoramide and gamma-butyrolactone. It is desirable to use one of these solvents or mixtures thereof. It is also possible to use combinations of these solvents with aromatic hydrocarbons such as xylene and toluene, or ether containing solvents like diglyme, propylene glycol methyl ether, propylene glycol, methyl ether acetate, tetrahydrofuran, and the like.
- In one embodiment, the prepolymer can be prepared and combined with the sub-micron filler (dispersion or colloid thereof) using numerous variations to form the substrate of this disclosure. “Prepolymer” is intended to mean a lower molecular weight polymer, typically made with a small stoichiometric excess (about 2 to 4%) of diamine monomer (or excess dianhydride monomer). Increasing the molecular weight (and solution viscosity) of the prepolymer can be accomplished by adding incremental amounts of additional dianhydride (or additional diamine, in the case where the dianhydride monomer is originally in excess in the prepolymer) in order to approach a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio of dianhydride to diamine.
- Useful methods for producing substrate in accordance with the present disclosure can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 5,166,308 to Kreuz, et al. Numerous variations are also possible, such as: (a) a method wherein the diamine components and dianhydride components are preliminarily mixed together and then the mixture is added in portions to a solvent while stirring, (b) a method wherein a solvent is added to a stirring mixture of diamine and dianhydride components (contrary to (a) above), (c) a method wherein diamines are exclusively dissolved in a solvent and then dianhydrides are added thereto at such a ratio as allowing to control the reaction rate, (d) a method wherein the dianhydride components are exclusively dissolved in a solvent and then amine components are added thereto at such a ratio to allow control of the reaction rate, (e) a method wherein the diamine components and the dianhydride components are separately dissolved in solvents and then these solutions are mixed in a reactor, (f) a method wherein the polyamic acid with excessive amine component and another polyamic acid with excessive dianhydride component are preliminarily formed and then reacted with each other in a reactor, particularly in such a way as to create a non-random or block copolymer, (g) a method wherein a specific portion of the amine components and the dianhydride components are first reacted and then the residual diamine components are reacted, or vice versa, (h) a method wherein the conversion chemicals are mixed with the polyamic acid to form a polyamic acid casting solution and then cast to form a gel film, (i) a method wherein the components are added in part or in whole in any order to either part or whole of the solvent, also where part or all of any component can be added as a solution in part or all of the solvent, (j) a method of first reacting one of the dianhydride components with one of the diamine components giving a first polyamic acid, then reacting the other dianhydride component with the other amine component to give a second polyamic acid, and then combining the amic acids in any one of a number of ways prior to film formation, and (k) a method of creating block copolymers by sequential addition, e.g., adding a first diamine and a first dianhydride to form a polyamic acid having excess dianhydride (or excess diamine) to create a first block and then adding a second diamine and a second dianhydride to the polyamic acid to form a second block in the presence of the first block; alternatively, blocks can be made based upon different dianhydrides (and the same diamine) or based upon different dianhydrides and different diamines (in each block), depending upon the particular application or properties desired.
- The sub-micron filler (dispersion or colloid thereof) can be added at several points in the substrate preparation. In one embodiment, the colloid or dispersion is incorporated into a prepolymer to yield a Brookfield solution viscosity in the range of about 50-100 poise at 25° C. In an alternative embodiment, the colloid or dispersion can be combined with the monomers directly, and in this case, polymerization occurs with the filler present during the reaction. The monomers may have an excess of either monomer (diamine or dianhydride) during this “in situ” polymerization. The monomers may also be added in a 1:1 ratio. In the case where the monomers are added with either the amine (case i) or the dianhydride (case ii) in excess, increasing the molecular weight (and solution viscosity) can be accomplished, if necessary, by adding incremental amounts of additional dianhydride (case i) or diamine (case ii) to approach the 1:1 stoichiometric ratio of dianhydride to amine. The polyamic acid casting solution can then be cast or applied onto a support, such as an endless belt or rotating drum. The polyamic acid contains conversion chemical reactants. Next, the solvent-containing film can be converted into a self-supporting film by baking at an appropriate temperature (thermal curing) to remove solvent or baking together with the chemical conversion reactants (chemical curing). The film can then be separated from the support, oriented such as by tentering, with continued thermal curing to provide a substrate.
- Generally speaking, film smoothness is desirable, since surface roughness: i. can interfere with the functionality of the layer or layers deposited on the filled substrate of the present disclosure, ii. can increase the probability of electrical or mechanical defects, and iii. can diminish property uniformity along the substrate. In one embodiment, the sub-micron filler (and any other discontinuous domains) are sufficiently dispersed during substrate formation, such that the sub-micron filler (and any other discontinuous domains) are sufficiently between the surfaces of the substrate upon substrate formation to provide a final substrate having an average surface roughness (Ra) of less than 1000, 750, 500 or 400 nanometers. Surface roughness as provided herein can be determined by optical surface profilometry to provide Ra values, such as, by measuring on a Veeco Wyco NT 1000 Series instrument in VSI mode at 25.4× or 51.2× utilizing Wyco Vision 32 software.
- The polyamic acid (and casting solution) can further comprise any one of a number of additives, such as processing aids (e.g., oligomers), antioxidants, light stabilizers, flame retardant additives, anti-static agents, heat stabilizers, ultraviolet absorbing agents, fillers or various reinforcing agents.
- An alkoxy silane coupling agent (or any conventional, nonconventional, presently known or future discovered coupling agent) can be added during the process by pretreating the sub-micron filler prior to formulation. Alkoxysilane coupling agents can also be added during the “in situ” polymerization by combining the fillers and monomers with the alkoxysilane, generally so long as the coupling agent does not interfere with the polymerization reaction.
- In some cases, the dianhydride can be contacted with the sub-micron filler. While not intending to be bound to any particular theory or hypothesis, it is believed such contact between the dianhydride and the sub-micron filler can functionalize the sub-micron filler with the dianhydride prior to further reaction with the monomers or prepolymer. Ultimately, a filled polyamic acid composition is generally cast into a film, which is subjected to drying and curing (chemical and/or thermal curing) to form a filled polyimide film. Any conventional or non-conventional method of manufacturing filled polyimide films can be used in accordance with the present disclosure. The manufacture of filled polyimide films in general is well known and need not be further described here. In one embodiment, the polyimide used in substrate of the present disclosure has a high glass transition temperature (Tg) of greater than 300, 310, 320, 330, 340, 350, 360, 370 380, 390 or 400° C. A high Tg generally helps maintain mechanical properties, such as storage modulus, at high temperatures.
- In some embodiments, electrically insulating fillers may be added to modify the electrical properties of the substrate. In some embodiments, it is important that the substrate be free of pinholes or other defects (foreign particles, gels, filler agglomerates or other contaminates) that could adversely impact the electrical integrity and dielectric strength of the substrate, and this can generally be addressed by filtering. Such filtering can be done at any stage of the substrate manufacture, such as, filtering solvated filler before or after it is added to one or more monomers and/or filtering the polyamic acid, particularly when the polyamic acid is at low viscosity, or otherwise, filtering at any step in the manufacturing process that allows for filtering. In one embodiment, such filtering is conducted at the minimum suitable filter pore size or at a level just above the largest dimension of the selected filler material. In some embodiments, the sub-micron filler is subjected to intense dispersion energy, such as agitation and/or high shear mixing or media milling or other dispersion techniques, including the use of dispersing agents, when incorporated into the film (or incorporated into a polyimide precursor) to inhibit unwanted agglomeration above the desired maximum filler size or to break up aggregates which may be originally present in the sub-micron filler. As the aspect ratio of the sub-micron filler increases, so too does the tendency of the sub-micron filler's long axis to align or otherwise position itself parallel to the outer surfaces of the film.
- A single layer film can be made thicker in an attempt to decrease the effect of defects caused by unwanted (or undesirably large) discontinuous phase material within the film. Alternatively, multiple layers of polyimide may be used to diminish the harm of any particular defect (unwanted discontinuous phase material of a size capable of harming desired properties) in any particular layer, and generally speaking, such multilayers will have fewer defects in performance compared to a single polyimide layer of the same thickness. Using multiple layers of polyimide films can diminish or eliminate the occurrence of defects that may span the total thickness of the film, because the likelihood of having defects that overlap in each of the individual layers tends to be extremely small. Therefore, a defect in any one of the layers is much less likely to cause an electrical or other type failure through the entire thickness of the film. In some embodiments, the substrate comprises two or more polyimide layers. In some embodiments, the polyimide layers are the same. In some embodiments, the polyimide layers are different. In some embodiments, the substrate is reinforced with a thermally stable, inorganic: fabric, paper, sheet, scrim or a combination thereof. Optionally, 0-55 weight percent of the film also includes other ingredients to modify properties as desired or required for any particular application.
- Interposer film of the present disclosure comprise a plurality of electrically conductive domains supported by a substrate as described above. The interposer film connects a die to a solder ball array in a μBGA package. However, it will be appreciated that the principles of the present disclosure pertain not only to μBGA technology, but also to any IC packaging system utilizing an interposer film.
- The interposer films of the present disclosure resist shrinkage or creep (even under tension, such as, reel to reel processing) within a broad temperature range, such as, from about room temperature to temperatures in excess of 300° C., 400° C., 425° C. or 450° C. In one embodiment, the interposer film of the present disclosure changes in dimension by less than 1, 0.75, 0.5, or 0.25 percent when subjected to a temperature of 450° C. for 30 minutes while under a stress in a range from 7.4-8.0 MPa (mega Pascals).
- The polyimide interposer films of the present disclosure can be reinforced with thermally stable, inorganic: fabric, paper (e.g., mica paper), sheet, scrim or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the interposer films of the present disclosure provide:
-
- i. low surface roughness, i.e., an average surface roughness (Ra) of less than 1000, 750, 500, 400, 350, 300 or 275 nanometers;
- ii. low levels of surface defects; and/or
- iii. other useful surface morphology,
- to diminish or inhibit unwanted defects, such as, electrical shorts.
- The interposer films of the present disclosure should have high thermal stability so the films do not substantially degrade, lose weight, have diminished mechanical properties, or give off significant volatiles, e.g., during the semiconductor deposition process. The polyimide interposer films of the present disclosure should be thin enough to not add excessive weight or cost, but thick enough to provide high electrical insulation at operating voltages, which in some cases may reach 400, 500, 750 or 1000 volts or more.

FIGS. 1A and 1B show a face view and a fragmentary cross-sectional view, respectively, of achip 10 having a plurality ofchip contacts 20 on a contact bearing surface. Aninterposer film 30 overlies and is typically centrally located on the contact bearing surface of thechip 10 so that thechip contacts 20 are exposed. Theinterposer film 30 may merely overlie the contact bearing surface of thechip 10; however, typically, the interposer film is adhesively attached to the chip surface using a thin layer ofadhesive material 80, as shown inFIG. 1B . - The
interposer film 30 may comprise a rigid or flexible material. Preferably, the interposer film comprises a sheet of polyimide having a thickness approximately between 5 and 150 microns. The first surface of theinterposer film 30 has a plurality ofconductive domains 40 thereon. Thedomains 40 are electrically connected to achip contact 20 through respective conductive leads 50 extending along the opposite side of the substrate and connected to theleads 50 through conductive vias 70. Alternately, the substrate may simply be removed so that solder ball terminals are placed directly onto the ends of theleads 50 without requiring the conductive vias 70. - Each
lead 50 has anexpansion section 55 extending from an edge of theinterposer film 30. Each expansion section is bonded to arespective chip contact 20, typically using conventional ultrasonic or thermosonic bonding apparatus. Eachexpansion section 55 is laterally curved substantially parallel to the plane of theinterposer film 30 prior to the bonding operation. Preferably, eachexpansion section 55 laterally curves at least twice in opposite directions (substantially “s” shaped) and may be curved more than twice. The leads 50 may further be detachably connected to a supporting structure prior to bonding as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,489,749 and 5,536,909. - Typically, the
expansion sections 55 of the leads are encapsulated by a suitable encapsulant, such as silicone or epoxy, to protect them from contamination and damage. During operation of the packaged chip, the conductive domains are attached to a printed circuit board and the laterally curved shape of theexpansion sections 55 of theleads 50 helps to compensate for the expansion and contraction of the chip during thermal cycling by having the ability to independently flex and bend. Theaforementioned encapsulant 60 supports theexpansion sections 55 of theleads 50 as they flex and bend and further helps to spread the forces acting on the leads. Further, a solder mask or coverlay may be placed over the exposed surface of thesubstrate 30 after the bonding and encapsulation steps such that only the conductive domains are exposed. -
FIG. 1C shows a fragmentary cross-sectional view of an alternate embodiment in which theleads 50′ are located on the same side as theconductive domains 40; thus, not requiring the conductive vias 70 (shown inFIG. 1B ). A solder mask/coverlay is also used in the embodiment shown inFIG. 1C because the leads 50 and theconductive domains 40 are on the same side of theinterposer film 30. The solder mask/coverlay provides a dielectric coating ensuring that the solder connecting the conductive domains to contacts on the printed circuit board does not wick down the leads or short to other soldered conductive domains. -
FIG. 1D shows a fragmentary cross-sectional view of an alternate embodiment in which the thin layer of adhesive fromFIG. 1B has been replaced with a thicker layer ofcompliant material 80′ to give added compensation for thermal mismatch, as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,148,265 and 5,148,266. Thecompliant material 80′ is typically about 50 to 200 microns thick and comprises either a thermoset or a thermoplastic material. The structure shown inFIG. 1D also allows theexpansion sections 55 of theleads 50 to be shaped by the bonding operation so that they are curved in a direction perpendicular to the lateral curve of the leads 50. As stated above, these laterally and vertically curved leads are typically supported by theencapsulant 60 so as to spread the forces acting upon them during thermal cycling of the operational package. Further details regarding these and other embodiments are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,821,608. -
FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrate one embodiment of the present invention in which a first level package 8 is provided, wherein like components are numbered in accordance withFIGS. 1A-1D above. In the IC packaging industry, it is common to refer to the placement of the IC chip within a suitable package as “1st level” packaging. The placement or mounting of the IC package on a suitable printed circuit board (PCB) or other substrate, is referred to as “2nd level” packaging. The interconnection of the various PCBs or other carriers within an electronic system, e.g., through use of a motherboard, is referred to as “3rd level” packaging. - In one embodiment, the package 8 is a ball grid array (BGA) package having a plurality of
solder balls 40 that interconnect the package to a printed circuit board (seeFIGS. 5 and 6 ). As shown inFIGS. 2 and 3 , in this package 8, a die orchip 10 is prepared for bonding with a second level package. As shown inFIG. 5 , the integrated circuit die 10 of the BGA package is mounted to a printed circuit board 82 through solder pads 88 and enclosed by a rigid housing or lid 84, typically constructed from a molded plastic material.FIG. 6 illustrates an alternative embodiment of the μBGA package without a package case 84. - The die 10 will be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to be one of many different types of integrated circuit. For example, the die 10 can be from a wide range of integrated circuit products, such as microprocessors, co-processors, digital signal processors, graphics processors, microcontrollers, memory devices, reprogrammable devices, programmable logic devices, and logic arrays, etc.
- A die attach
material 80 is provided over the central portion of thedie 10. Asolder ball array 40 is provided over the die attach material. Thesolder ball array 40 serves to make the connection to the next-level package. The die attachmaterial 80 may be a silicone clastomer, or an epoxy-modified elastomeric material. Thesolder balls 40 are preferably relatively flexible and can thus compensate for any lack of flatness in the printed circuit board or package. Additionally, the solder balls are assembled in an array, and thus provide a relatively high throughput. In one preferred embodiment, the solder balls are made of a tin/lead (SnPb) eutectic material such as Sn63Pb37 and have a diameter of about 0.3 to 0.5 mm. - The
interposer film 30 extends over the die attachmaterial 80 to form a connection with thesolder ball array 40. The bump pitch of thesolder balls 40 on theinterposer film 30 can be as small as about 0.25 to 1 mm, and is more preferably about 0.5 mm. Leads 50 extend from theinterposer film 30 to form a connection with the die 10 atdie pads 20. The leads are preferably made of Au wire, and are preferably bonded thermosonically in a lazy-S shape inexpansion section 55 to accommodate deformation due to thermal expansion. -
FIG. 4 illustrates more particularly in cross-section theinterposer film 30. Theinterposer film 30 includes a composite polyimide core 100 and conductive traces 102 and 104, which are preferably made of copper. The polyimide core 100 preferably has a thickness of about 25 μm. The copper traces preferably have a thickness of about 12 μm. - The increased rigidity of the interposer film 100 advantageously makes the interposer film easier to handle during fabrication of the package. With conventional interposer films, having a modulus in the range of about 4.5 to 8 GPa for example, during assembly of the package the interposer is carried using a metal frame as described above. The composite interposer of the preferred embodiments, by contrast, has a higher modulus which may eliminate the need to use a metal frame. For example, filler may be added so that the modulus of the interposer is about 5 and 500% higher than the modulus of the polyimide core alone. This thereby simplifies manufacture, and the increased rigidity of the interposer film makes it possible to handle the interposer film directly by a machine without using a metal frame. Elimination of the metal frame helps the process accuracy and reduces handling and costs.
- Moreover, the more rigid interposer of the preferred embodiments also prevents die delamination. This is because a more rigid interposer can be made flatter and can therefore be adhered to the die attach material more effectively.
- The interposer films of the present disclosure have high temperature dimensional stability, good flex endurance disclosure and have a CTE that closely matches the underlying chip or conductive leads. The sub-micron filler of the present disclosure in the polyimides of the present disclosure provide the potential for higher performing lower cost interposer films.
- It will be appreciated that the interposer film described herein may be used not only in μBGA packages, but also in other integrated circuit packages as well. Other types of integrated circuit package applications as would be known by one of skill in the art include, but are not limited to, any package using a flexible substrate.
- The embodiments illustrated and described above are provided merely as examples of certain preferred embodiments of the present invention. Various changes and modifications can be made from the embodiments presented herein by those skilled in the art without departure from the spirit and scope of the invention, as defined by the appended claims.
- The invention will be further described in the following examples, which are not intended to limit the scope of the invention described in the claims.
- In all examples, for calculations to convert to composition weight percentages to equivalent volume percentages, densities of 4.2 g/cc for the acicular Titanium dioxide, 2.75 g/cc for talc, 3.22 g/cc for SiC and 1.42 g/cc for the polyimide were used.
- Examples 1-4 demonstrate that the sub-micron filler of the present disclosure at 10 volume percent or higher significantly increase storage modulus and lower CTE when compared to unfilled Comparative Example 1, while maintaining adequate elongation to break.
- 25.0 grams of acicular TiO2 (FTL-110, Ishihara Corporation, USA) was combined with 141.11 grams of anhydrous DMAC. This slurry was mixed at high shear for approximately 10 to 15 minutes using Silverson Model L4RT high-shear mixer (Silverson Machines, LTD, Chesham Baucks, England) equipped with a square-hole, high-shear screen (with a blade speed of approximately 4000 rpm).
- In a round bottom flask, 74.1 grams of the slurry containing acicular TiO2 was mixed with 116.94 grams of PMDA//ODA prepolymer (20 wt % solution in anhydrous DMAC), and the resulting mixture was stirred for approximately 24 hours. During this operation, a gentle nitrogen gas purge was used in the round bottom flask.
- After stirring for approximately 24 hours, this material was filtered through 45 micron filter media (Millipore, 45 micron polypropylene screen, PP4504700).
- In a separate container, a 6 wt % solution of pyromellitic anhydride (PMDA) was prepared by combining 9.00 g of PMDA (Aldrich 412287, Allentown, Pa.) and 15 ml of DMAC.
- The PMDA solution was slowly added to the prepolymer slurry to achieve a final viscosity of 1090 poise. The formulation was stored overnight at 0° C. to allow it to degas.
- The formulation was cast using a 25 mil doctor blade onto a surface of a glass plate to form a 3″×4″ film. The cast film and the glass plate are then soaked in a solution containing 110 ml of 3-picoline (beta picoline, Aldrich, 242845) and 110 ml of acetic anhydride (Aldrich, 98%, P42053).

A mechanical cooler was also used, which allowed temperature of the instrument to rapidly cool down between heating cycles. The film was cut to a 2.0 mm width and 6-9 mm length (in MD or casting direction). The film was clamped lengthwise to a length of 7.5-9.0 mm. A preload tension was set for 5 grams of force.

A second heating cycle to 400° C. was performed in the same way. The calculations of thermal expansion coefficient in the unit of μm/m-° C.

The DMA operation was based on the viscoelastic response of polymers subjected to a small oscillatory strain (e.g., 10 μm) as a function of temperature and time (TA Instruments, New Castle, Del., USA, DMA 2980). The films were placed under tension in a multifrequency-strain mode. A finite size of rectangular specimen was clamped between stationary jaws and movable jaws. The films were 6-6.4 mm in width, 0.03-0.05 mm thick and 10 mm in length. The MD direction was used, and the film was fastened with 3 in-lb torque force. The static force in the length direction was 0.05 N with autotension of 125%. The film was heated at frequency of 1 Hz from 0° to 500° C. at a rate of 3° C./min. The storage modulus at 25° C. was measured to be 5757 MPa.

- The following examples demonstrate the impact on properties of a particulate (less than 3:1 aspect ratio) vs. a high aspect ratio (greater than 3:1 aspect) ratio platelet filler on the properties of a polyimide film. The platelet filler results in advantageously higher modulus and lower CTE at equivalent weight loadings. (Note that although the average particle sizes of these two fillers appear significantly different (platelet is significantly larger) via particle size analysis (Horiba LA-930 particle size analyzer), it is believed that the effect on properties is largely due to the filler shape, rather than any differences in average particle size).
- A portion of a polyamic acid prepolymer of PMDA and ODA (prepared in DMAC at about 20.6%, approximately 50 poise viscosity) was blended with particulate alumina filler (Martoxid MZS-1, Albermarle Corporation) in a Silverson (model L4RT-A) high shear mixer. The amount of alumina was chosen so as to ultimately yield a final polyimide film with a 40 wt % loading of alumina in polyimide. The polyamic acid was then further reacted (“finished”) to a viscosity of about 537 poise (Brookfield DV-II+ viscometer with a #LV5 spindle) by stepwise additions of a 6 wt % PMDA solution in DMAC with thorough mixing via a high torque mechanical mixer/stir blade. The polymer was subsequently cast onto a glass plate and heated to about 80° C. until a tack free film was obtained. The film was carefully peeled from the glass and placed on a pin frame and placed in a circulating air oven and the temperature slowly ramped to 320° C. and held there for 30 minute. Next, the film was removed from the 320° C. oven and place in a 400° C. air oven for 5 minutes. Afterwards, the polyimide film on the pin frame was removed from the oven and allowed to cool to room temperature. The film was then separated from the pin frame.
