[0042] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention through specific examples, and those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
[0043] See also Figures 1 to 13 It should be noted that the illustrations provided in this embodiment are only used to illustrate the basic concept of the present invention in a schematic manner, and the illustrations only show components related to the present invention rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component may be changed arbitrarily, and the component layout may also be more complicated.
[0044] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, this embodiment provides a packaging method for an antenna, and the packaging method includes:
[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, step 1) is first performed to provide a supporting substrate 101 and to form a separation layer 102 on the supporting substrate 101 .
[0046] As an example, the support substrate 101 includes one of a glass substrate, a metal substrate, a semiconductor substrate, a polymer substrate and a ceramic substrate. In this embodiment, the support substrate 101 is selected as a glass substrate, which has a low cost, is easy to form a separation layer 102 on its surface, and can reduce the difficulty of the subsequent stripping process.
[0047] As an example, the separation layer 102 includes a light-to-heat conversion layer (LTHC), which is formed on the support substrate 101 by a spin coating process and then solidified by a curing process. The light-to-heat conversion layer (LTHC) has stable performance and a smooth surface, which is conducive to the subsequent preparation of the rewiring layer, and in the subsequent stripping process, the stripping difficulty is relatively low.
[0048] like Figure 2 to Figure 5 As shown, step 2) is then performed to form a rewiring layer on the separation layer 102, wherein the rewiring layer includes a first surface connected to the separation layer 102 and an opposite second surface.
[0049] Step 2) making the rewiring layer comprises the steps of:
[0050] like Figure 2 As shown, step 2-1) is performed to form a first dielectric layer 201 on the surface of the separation layer 102 using a chemical vapor deposition process or a physical vapor deposition process. The material of the first dielectric layer 201 includes one or a combination of two or more of epoxy resin, silica gel, PI, PBO, BCB, silicon oxide, phosphosilicate glass, and fluorine-containing glass.
[0051] Preferably, the material of the first dielectric layer 201 is PI (polyimide) to further reduce the process difficulty and process cost.
[0052] like Figure 3 As shown, step 2-2) is performed to form a first metal layer on the surface of the first dielectric layer 201 by a sputtering process, and the metal layer is etched to form a patterned first metal wiring layer 202. The material of the first metal wiring layer 202 includes one or a combination of two or more of copper, aluminum, nickel, gold, silver, and titanium.
[0053] like Figure 4 As shown, step 2-3) is performed to form a second dielectric layer 203 on the surface of the patterned first metal wiring layer 202 by chemical vapor deposition or physical vapor deposition, and the second dielectric layer 203 is etched to form a second dielectric layer 203 with patterned through holes. The material of the second dielectric layer 203 includes one or a combination of two or more of epoxy resin, silica gel, PI, PBO, BCB, silicon oxide, phosphorus silicon glass, and fluorine-containing glass.
[0054] Preferably, the material of the second dielectric layer 203 is PI (polyimide) to further reduce the process difficulty and process cost.
[0055] like Figure 4As shown, step 2-4) is performed to fill the patterned through hole with a conductive plug, and then a second metal layer is formed on the surface of the second dielectric layer 203 by a sputtering process, and the metal layer is etched to form a patterned second metal wiring layer 204. The material of the second metal wiring layer 204 includes one or a combination of two or more of copper, aluminum, nickel, gold, silver, and titanium.
[0056] Then, if Figure 5 As shown, the above steps 2-3) to 2-4) can be repeated to form a rewiring layer with a multi-layer stacking structure to achieve different wiring functions.
[0057] like Figure 6-7 As shown, step 3) is then performed to provide a metal column 302 and a metal solder 301, and the metal solder 301 is melted by a laser heating process. The metal column 302 is implanted on the second surface of the rewiring layer through the metal solder 301, and the metal solder 301 is solidified, and the metal column 302 is electrically connected to the rewiring layer.
[0058] For example, a metal column 302 with metal solder 301 at the bottom is vertically placed on the surface of the rewiring layer, and then the metal solder 301 is irradiated with laser at room temperature to melt the metal solder, and after it solidifies, the metal column 302 is fixedly connected to the rewiring layer.
[0059] The radial width D of the metal column 302 is between 500 microns and 5000 microns. Preferably, the radial width of the metal column 302 is between 1000 microns and 2000 microns. For example, the radial width of the metal column 302 can be 1100 microns, 1200 microns, 1500 microns, etc. The present invention adopts a laser heating process to melt the metal solder, and implants the metal column on the second surface of the rewiring layer through the metal solder. By selecting metal columns 302 of different diameters, a large diameter metal column 302 can be obtained, thereby improving the structural strength of the metal column 302, and at the same time reducing the feed line loss and improving the efficiency and performance of the antenna.
[0060] The metal solder includes tin or a gold-tin alloy, and the material of the metal column includes one of gold, silver, copper, and aluminum. For example, the metal solder 301 can be solder paste, and the metal column 302 can be a copper column. The metal solder 301 can effectively strengthen the bonding strength between the metal column 302 and the rewiring layer, and reduce the resistance between the metal column 302 and the rewiring layer.
[0061] The metal solder completely covers the bottom of the metal column, and the metal column is perpendicular to the rewiring layer. The shape of the metal solder after solidification is a trapezoid, and the height of the solder metal can be between 500 microns and 5000 microns. The angle a of the lower bottom angle of the trapezoid is between 45 degrees and 90 degrees. This solder metal angle range can improve the effective support of the metal solder to the side wall of the metal column, ensuring that the metal column can be set vertically and is easy to deviate or crack with the rewiring layer in subsequent processes. For example, when the angle of the lower bottom angle of the trapezoid is 50 degrees to 70 degrees, the above support effect is more significant. The metal column prepared by the above process of the present invention can make the metal solder completely cover the bottom of the metal column, thereby greatly improving the stability of the metal column. At the same time, the vertical setting of the metal column can be realized, avoiding the offset of the top center and the end center of the metal column, and reducing the process deviation. For example, if the metal column has an inclination angle, the top center and the end center are not on the same vertical line, which will make the subsequent processes (such as the production of antenna metal, etc.) difficult to align, resulting in a decrease in the stability of the production process. The present invention can realize the vertical setting of the metal column and can effectively solve the above problems. Furthermore, the metal column prepared by the above process of the present invention can avoid the damage caused by the traditional high-temperature reflow process to the rewiring layer and the entire packaging structure, greatly improving the process yield.
[0062] like Figure 8-Figure 9 As shown, step 4 is then performed to encapsulate the metal pillar 302 with an encapsulation layer 303 , and thin the encapsulation layer 303 so that the top surface of the metal pillar 302 is exposed from the encapsulation layer 303 .
[0063] As an example, a method of encapsulating the antenna structure using the encapsulation layer 303 includes one of compression molding, transfer molding, liquid sealing molding, vacuum lamination and spin coating, and the material of the encapsulation layer 303 includes one of polyimide, silicone and epoxy resin.
[0064] like Fig.10 As shown, step 5 is then performed to form an antenna metal layer 304 on the surface of the dielectric layer, and the antenna metal layer 304 is connected to the metal column 302 .
[0065] Then, the above steps 2) to 5) can be repeated to form a multi-layer stacked antenna structure, for example, the number of repetitions is not less than two times. The above steps can obtain a multi-layer antenna structure layer, and the multi-layer antenna structure will have a certain loss. The present invention uses a metal column 302 with a larger diameter and lower loss, which can greatly reduce the loss of the multi-layer antenna structure.
[0066] like Fig.11As shown, step 6 is then performed to peel off the encapsulation layer 303 and the supporting substrate 101 based on the separation layer 102 to expose the first surface of the rewiring layer.
[0067] Specifically, the separation layer 102 includes a light-to-heat conversion layer, and laser is used to irradiate the light-to-heat conversion layer to separate the light-to-heat conversion layer from the encapsulation layer 303 and the supporting substrate 101 , thereby peeling off the rewiring layer and the supporting substrate 101 .
[0068] like Fig.12 As shown, step 7) is then performed to provide an antenna circuit chip 401, and the antenna circuit chip 401 is bonded to the first surface of the rewiring layer, so that the antenna circuit chip 401 is electrically connected to the antenna metal layer 304 through the rewiring layer and the metal pillar 302. For example, the antenna circuit chip 401 can be bonded to the first surface of the rewiring layer by a welding process or a ball planting process, so that the antenna circuit chip 401 is electrically connected to the rewiring layer.
[0069] For example, the antenna circuit chip 401 includes one or both of active components and passive components, wherein the active component includes one of a power management circuit, a transmitting circuit and a receiving circuit, and the passive component includes one of a resistor, a capacitor and an inductor.
[0070] like Fig.13 As shown, step 8) is finally performed to form metal bumps 501 on the first surface of the rewiring layer to achieve electrical extraction of the rewiring layer.
[0071] like Fig.13 As shown, the present embodiment also provides a packaging structure of an antenna, the packaging structure comprising: a rewiring layer, the rewiring layer comprising a first surface and an opposite second surface; a metal column 302, fixed and electrically connected to the second surface of the rewiring layer by a metal solder 301, the metal solder 301 completely covering the bottom of the metal column, the metal column 302 being perpendicular to the rewiring layer; a packaging layer 303, covering the metal column 302, and the top surface of which exposes the metal column 302; an antenna metal layer 304, formed on the packaging layer 303, the antenna metal layer 304 being connected to the metal column 302; an antenna circuit chip 401, combined with the first surface of the rewiring layer, and electrically connected to the antenna metal layer 304 through the rewiring layer and the metal column 302; and a metal bump 501, formed on the first surface of the rewiring layer to achieve electrical lead-out of the rewiring layer.
[0072] The radial width of the metal column 302 is between 500 microns and 5000 microns. Preferably, the radial width of the metal column 302 is between 1000 microns and 2000 microns. For example, the radial width of the metal column 302 can be 1100 microns, 1200 microns, 1500 microns, etc. The present invention adopts a laser heating process to melt the metal solder, and implants the metal column on the second surface of the rewiring layer through the metal solder. By selecting metal columns 302 of different diameters, a large diameter metal column 302 can be obtained, thereby improving the structural strength of the metal column 302, and at the same time reducing the feed line loss and improving the efficiency and performance of the antenna.
[0073] The metal solder includes tin or a gold-tin alloy, and the material of the metal column includes one of gold, silver, copper, and aluminum. For example, the metal solder 301 can be solder paste, and the metal column 302 can be a copper column. The metal solder 301 can effectively strengthen the bonding strength between the metal column 302 and the rewiring layer, and reduce the resistance between the metal column 302 and the rewiring layer.
[0074] The metal solder completely covers the bottom of the metal column, and the metal column is perpendicular to the rewiring layer. The shape of the metal solder after solidification is a trapezoid, and the height of the solder metal can be between 500 microns and 5000 microns. The angle of the lower bottom angle of the trapezoid is between 45 degrees and 90 degrees. The angle range of the solder metal can improve the effective support of the metal solder on the side wall of the metal column, ensuring that the metal column can be set vertically and easily offset or cracked with the rewiring layer in the subsequent process. For example, when the angle of the lower bottom angle of the trapezoid is 50 degrees to 70 degrees, the above support effect is more significant. The metal column prepared by the above process of the present invention can make the metal solder completely cover the bottom of the metal column, thereby greatly improving the stability of the metal column, and at the same time can realize the vertical setting of the metal column, avoid the offset of the top center and the end center of the metal column, and reduce the process deviation. The metal column prepared by the above process of the present invention can avoid the damage caused by the traditional high-temperature reflow process to the rewiring layer and the entire packaging structure, and greatly improve the process yield.
[0075] The material of the packaging layer 303 includes one of polyimide, silica gel and epoxy resin.
[0076] The antenna circuit chip 401 includes one or both of active components and passive components, wherein the active component includes one of a power management circuit, a transmitting circuit and a receiving circuit, and the passive component includes one of a resistor, a capacitor and an inductor.
[0077] The metal bump 501 includes one of tin solder, silver solder and gold-tin alloy solder.
[0078] As described above, the packaging structure and packaging method of the antenna of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:
[0079] The antenna packaging structure of the present invention connects the metal column to the surface of the rewiring layer through metal solder and laser heating process. A large diameter metal column can be selected to improve the structural strength of the metal column. At the same time, the feed line loss can be reduced, and the efficiency and performance of the antenna can be improved.
[0080] The present invention prepares the metal column through the above process, so that the metal solder can completely cover the bottom of the metal column, thereby greatly improving the stability of the metal column. At the same time, the vertical setting of the metal column can be achieved, avoiding the deviation of the top center and the end center of the metal column, and reducing process deviation.
[0081] The present invention prepares the metal pillars through the above process, which can avoid the damage to the rewiring layer and the entire packaging structure caused by the traditional high-temperature reflow process, and greatly improve the process yield.
