Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electronic glass technology, specifically, it relates to a glass substrate for electronic packaging. Background Technology
[0002] TGV (Through GlassVia) technology, as one of the core processes in advanced packaging, places high demands on the performance of glass substrates in many aspects. An ideal glass substrate needs to have extremely high dimensional stability, excellent high-frequency electrical performance, and good thermal matching to meet the needs of high-density integration, high-frequency and high-speed signal transmission, and multi-layer stacked packaging.
[0003] Currently, commonly used packaging substrate materials, such as organic substrates or conventional glass, still have significant performance limitations. While organic substrates offer good processing performance, their coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) is typically high, differing significantly from that of silicon chips. This makes them prone to warping and stress during thermal cycling, affecting packaging reliability and alignment accuracy. Furthermore, organic materials have high dielectric constants and dielectric losses, especially at high frequencies above 10 GHz, resulting in significant signal transmission losses and making it difficult to meet the stringent signal integrity requirements of high-frequency applications such as AI chips and RF modules.
[0004] On the other hand, while traditional borosilicate glasses have a low CTE, their composition systems often struggle to balance low dielectric properties with good process adaptability. Some glass compositions have a high B2O3 content, which, while helping to lower the melting temperature, may lead to decreased dielectric properties, increased dielectric constant, and increased losses, failing to meet the stringent requirements of TGV technology for low dielectric constant and low dielectric loss.
[0005] Therefore, there is no existing technology that can comprehensively optimize the coefficient of thermal expansion, dielectric properties, insulation properties and process adaptability of glass substrate materials. There is an urgent need to develop a new glass composition to better meet the stringent requirements of TGV technology for electronic packaging glass. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a glass substrate for electronic packaging.
[0007] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A glass substrate for electronic packaging comprises the following raw materials in molar percentage: 69%-71% SiO2, 13%-14% Al2O3, 1%-2.5% B2O3, 0.5%-1% Dy2O3, 0.5%-1% Gd2O3, 0.2%-0.4% MnO, 0.2%-0.4% NiO, 0.5%-1% ZnO, and 11%-14% alkaline earth metal oxides.
[0008] Furthermore, the alkaline earth metal oxides include MgO, CaO, and SrO.
[0009] Furthermore, the MgO accounts for 7%-8% of the total raw material molar percentage.
[0010] Furthermore, the CaO accounts for 3%-4% of the total molar percentage of the raw materials.
[0011] Furthermore, the SrO accounts for 1%-2% of the total raw material molar percentage.
[0012] Furthermore, the proportions of the raw materials must meet the following conditions: 0.01≤B2O3 / (Al2O3+SiO2)≤0.03; 0.06≤ZnO / MgO≤0.14.
[0013] This invention is based on an aluminosilicate glass system, constructing a glass network. By controlling the ratio of silicon, aluminum, and boron in the main network forming elements, as well as the content of the main external network modifying oxides, it provides basic mechanical strength, chemical stability, and a low coefficient of thermal expansion. Simultaneously, by incorporating transition metal oxides as dielectric constant modifiers, the dielectric constant of the glass can be precisely controlled at the required low level to meet the requirements of high-frequency signal transmission. Furthermore, by incorporating rare earth metal oxides as network agglomerates and densifiers, these rare earth ions, possessing high field strength, can fill and "tighten" the glass network structure, making it more aggregated and dense. This effectively reduces dielectric loss and improves insulation resistance, which is key to achieving ultra-low dielectric loss.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. By introducing a key combination of transition metal oxides and rare earth oxides, precise control of dielectric properties is achieved, ultimately enabling the glass substrate to have a low dielectric constant and extremely low dielectric loss at a high frequency of 10GHz. This significantly reduces signal transmission delay and loss, perfectly meeting the stringent requirements for signal integrity in high-frequency applications such as AI chips and RF devices. 2. Based on the aluminosilicate system, by precisely controlling the ratio of the main components to alkaline earth metal oxides, the thermal expansion coefficient of the glass is kept stable, which greatly reduces the encapsulation warpage and internal stress caused by thermal mismatch, thereby providing higher dimensional stability and encapsulation reliability. This invention successfully solves the industry pain point that traditional packaging substrate materials (such as organic substrates or ordinary glass) struggle to balance high-frequency performance, thermal matching, and structural compactness, providing an ideal glass substrate material with excellent comprehensive performance for advanced TGV packaging technology.
