Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors and relates to a welding method for a target material, in particular to a diffusion welding method for an ultra-high purity copper target material. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of VLSI, the size of semiconductor chips has been reduced to the nanometer level. The RC delay and electromigration of metal interconnects have become the main factors affecting chip performance. Traditional aluminum and aluminum alloy interconnects can no longer meet the requirements of VLSI process. Compared with aluminum, copper has higher electromigration resistance and higher conductivity, especially ultra-high purity copper (purity ≥ 6N), which is of great significance for reducing the resistance of chip interconnects and improving their computing speed.
[0003] In actual application, it is necessary to combine a metal construction target material that meets the performance requirements with a back plate with a certain strength to form a target assembly, and then install it on the sputtering machine to effectively control the sputtering under the action of magnetic and electric fields. Due to its low hardness, the copper target material needs to be welded to a high-hardness aluminum back plate. However, if the welding temperature is high, it is easy to cause abnormal grain growth in the copper target material, resulting in coarse grain defects, which in turn affects the performance of the formed semiconductor chip.
[0004] CN110539067A discloses a diffusion welding method for a high-purity copper target, comprising the following steps: preparing a high-purity copper target and a back plate, and processing threads on the welding surface of the back plate; evenly arranging metal powder on the threaded surface of the back plate; placing the high-purity copper target and the back plate into a metal sheath after combining them, and then degassing the metal sheath, and then sealing the degassing metal sheath; hot isostatic pressing the sealed metal sheath, and then cooling it to room temperature; removing the metal sheath to complete the diffusion welding of the high-purity copper target and the back plate.
[0005] CN111304604A discloses a diffusion welding method for a copper target and an aluminum alloy back plate and a copper target assembly obtained. The diffusion welding method comprises the following steps: (1) coating a titanium film on the welding surface of the copper target, and then assembling the copper target coated with the titanium film and the aluminum alloy back plate, and then placing the whole into a sheath; (2) sealing the sheath obtained in step (1) and degassing it; (3) hot isostatic pressing the sheath after degassing in step (2), and then removing the sheath to complete the diffusion welding of the copper target and the aluminum alloy back plate. The provision of the titanium film improves the bonding degree of the welding.
[0006] CN113894401A discloses a method for low-temperature diffusion welding of an ultra-high purity copper target assembly, the method comprising the following steps: pre-treating the welding surface of the ultra-high purity copper target; threading the welding surface of the copper alloy back plate; the pitch of the thread is 0.2-0.45mm, and the depth of the thread is 0.1-0.15mm; assembling the treated ultra-high purity copper target and the copper alloy back plate, and then placing them in a bag after vacuum packaging for degassing; diffusion welding is performed after degassing, and then cooling is performed to obtain an ultra-high purity copper target assembly.
[0007] The above method turns threads on the welding surface of the back plate with higher hardness, and involves the control of thread size. However, when processing the back plate with higher hardness, the service life of the turning tool is short. If a method for setting threads on the welding surface of the target material can be provided, it will be helpful to reduce the cost of turning processing; therefore, it is necessary to provide a diffusion welding method for ultra-high purity copper target material that is helpful to reduce processing costs and ensure welding strength. Summary of the invention
[0008] The object of the present invention is to provide a diffusion welding method for an ultra-high purity copper target material, wherein the diffusion welding method processes threads on the welding surface of the ultra-high purity copper target material, thereby reducing tool loss during turning processing; moreover, through the specific setting of the threads, the temperature of the diffusion welding can be reduced, and the welding quality can be guaranteed, so that the target material assembly after diffusion welding meets the coating requirements.
[0009] In order to achieve the purpose of the invention, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0010] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a diffusion welding method for an ultra-high purity copper target, the diffusion welding method comprising the following steps:
[0011] (1) turning threads on the welding surface of the ultra-high purity copper target, and washing with isopropanol, water and alcohol in sequence to obtain a pretreated target;
[0012] (2) assembling the pretreated target material and the aluminum alloy backing plate, and then performing diffusion welding;
[0013] The thread pitch of step (1) is 0.7-0.75 mm, and the thread depth is 0.6-0.65 mm.
[0014] The aluminum alloy back plate of the present invention is a 5 series aluminum alloy back plate, and the aluminum alloy includes but is not limited to A5083 or A5052.
[0015] The diffusion welding method provided by the present invention processes threads on the welding surface of an ultra-high purity copper target material, thereby reducing tool loss during turning processing; moreover, through the specific setting of the threads, the temperature of diffusion welding can be reduced, and the welding quality can be guaranteed, so that the target material assembly after diffusion welding meets the coating requirements.
[0016] In the diffusion welding method of the present invention, the pitch of the thread is 0.7-0.75 mm, for example, it can be 0.7 mm, 0.71 mm, 0.72 mm, 0.73 mm, 0.74 mm or 0.75 mm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are also applicable.
[0017] In the diffusion welding method of the present invention, the thread depth is 0.6-0.65 mm, for example, it can be 0.6 mm, 0.61 mm, 0.62 mm, 0.63 mm, 0.64 mm or 0.65 mm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are also applicable.
[0018] As one of the preferred technical solutions of the present invention, the thread angle of the thread is 55°-65°, for example, it can be 55°, 56°, 58°, 60°, 62°, 64° or 65°, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are also applicable.
[0019] As a second preferred technical solution of the present invention, on the basis that the thread angle of the thread is 55°-65°, the shape of the thread is improved; the thread of the thread includes a first boss and a first convex tooth;

[0022] The diffusion welding method provided by the present invention is to turn threads on the welding surface of an ultra-high purity copper target material with relatively low hardness. In order to avoid a reduction in welding strength caused by excessive deformation of the thread during diffusion welding, the present invention improves the shape of the thread on the basis of a thread angle of 55°-65°.
[0023] The present invention makes the shape of the screw thread into a first boss and a first convex tooth.
