Mobile communication terminals represented by mobile phones, especially 5G mobile phones, are developing rapidly. Mobile phones need to process more and more signal frequency bands, and the number of RF chips required is also rising. The mobile phone forms that are popular with consumers are constantly developing towards miniaturization, lightness, and long battery life.

[0065] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a substrate integrated with passive devices and a method for preparing the same.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, an LC oscillation circuit integrated on the substrate is taken as an example. That is, at least inductors, capacitors, resistors, etc. are integrated on the substrate.

[0066] Figure 1 is a top view of the inductor of the embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figure 1 , each first substructure 211 of the inductor extends along the first direction and is arranged side by side along the second direction; each second substructure 212 of the inductor extends along the third direction and is arranged side by side along the second direction. Among them, the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are all different directions. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, and the first direction and the third direction intersect and are arranged non-perpendicularly. Of course, the extension directions of the first substructure 211 and the second substructure 212 can also be interchanged, both within the protection scope of the embodiment of the present disclosure. In addition, in the present embodiment, the inductor includes N first substructures 211 and N-1 second substructures 212 as an example for explanation, wherein N≥2, and N is an integer. The first end and the second end of the first substructure 211 respectively overlap with the positive projection of a first connecting via 11 on the glass substrate 10 at least partially. And the first end and the second end of a first substructure 211 correspond to different first connecting vias 11, that is, the positive projection of a first substructure 211 and two first connecting vias 11 on the glass substrate 10 overlap at least partially. At this time, the first end of the i-th second substructure 212 of the inductor is connected to the first end of the i-th first substructure 211 and the second end of the i+1-th first substructure 211 to form an inductor coil, where 1≤i≤N-1, and i is an integer.

[0067] It should be noted that the first lead terminal 22 is connected to the second end of the first first substructure 211 of the inductor, and the second lead terminal 23 is connected to the first end of the Nth first substructure 211. Further, the first lead terminal 22 and the second lead terminal 23 can be arranged in the same layer as the second substructure 212 and made of the same material. In this case, the first lead terminal 22 can be connected to the second end of the first first substructure 211 through the first connecting via 11, and correspondingly, the second lead terminal 23 can be connected to the first end of the Nth first substructure 211 through the first connecting via 11.

[0068] Figure 2 is a LC oscillation circuit diagram; Figure 2 As shown, the LC oscillator circuit includes two inductors, a capacitor and a resistor. For ease of understanding, the two inductors are respectively referred to as the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2.

[0069] It should be noted that the resistor R can be implemented by a wire, or a high-resistance material such as indium tin oxide (ITO) or nickel-chromium (NiCr) alloy. In the disclosed embodiment, the formation of the resistor R is not limited, and the following mainly introduces the capacitor and the inductor.

[0070] Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view of a substrate integrated with passive devices in an embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 3 As shown, the passive device is Figure 2 The LC oscillating circuit shown is integrated on a transparent dielectric layer, which includes a first surface and a second surface arranged opposite to each other along the thickness direction thereof, and the transparent dielectric layer has a first connecting via 11 penetrating the thickness direction thereof; a first connecting electrode 213 of the inductor coil is formed in the first connecting via, a first substructure 211 of the inductor coil is formed on the first surface of the transparent dielectric layer, and a second substructure 212 of the inductor coil is formed on the second surface of the transparent dielectric layer. In the embodiment disclosed herein, the transparent dielectric layer includes but is not limited to any one of a glass substrate 10, a flexible substrate, and an interlayer dielectric layer including at least an organic insulating layer. Since the passive device is integrated on the glass substrate 10, it has the advantages of small size, light weight, high performance, and low power consumption. In the embodiment disclosed herein, the transparent dielectric layer preferably adopts a glass substrate 10. The following is an example of a transparent dielectric layer adopting a glass substrate 1010.

[0071] Continue to refer to Figure 3In some examples, the second substructure 212 may include a first conductive film layer 2121 and a second conductive film layer 2122 sequentially arranged in a direction away from the glass substrate 10; wherein the first electrode 31 of the capacitor is arranged on the second surface and is arranged in the same layer as the first conductive film layer 2121 of the second substructure 212 of the inductor coil, a first interlayer dielectric layer 5 is arranged on the side away from the first electrode 31 of the capacitor, and a second electrode 32 of the capacitor is arranged on the side of the first interlayer dielectric layer 5 away from the first electrode 31 of the capacitor; a second interlayer dielectric layer 6 is arranged on a layer away from the second electrode 32 of the capacitor, and a second conductive film layer 2122 and a second connecting electrode 7 are arranged on the side away from the second interlayer dielectric layer 6; the second conductive film layer 2122 is connected to the first conductive film layer 2121 through a second connecting via that penetrates the first interlayer dielectric layer 5 and the second interlayer dielectric layer 6; the second connecting electrode 7 is connected to the second electrode of the capacitor through a third connecting via that penetrates the second interlayer dielectric layer 6. A first protective layer 8 and a first planarization layer 9 are sequentially arranged on the side of the second conductive film layer 2122 and the second connection electrode 7 facing away from the glass substrate 10; and a fourth connection via 91 and a fifth connection via 92 are formed penetrating the first protective layer 8 and the first planarization layer 9. The first connection pad 14 and the second connection pad 15 are respectively formed in the fourth connection via 91 and the fifth connection via 92. The first connection pad 14 and the second connection pad 15 can be solder.

[0072] Continuing with reference to 3 , a third protective layer and a third planarization layer may be formed on the side of the first substructure 211 facing away from the glass substrate 10 , so as to protect the first substructure 211 and prevent corrosion by water and oxygen.

[0073] The structural parameters of each device on the substrate integrated with passive devices in the embodiment of the present disclosure are described one by one in the following preparation method, so they are not described in detail here.

[0074] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for preparing a substrate integrated with passive devices is provided. The substrate may be the above-mentioned substrate. The method for preparing the substrate comprises the following steps:

[0075] A glass substrate 10 is provided and processed to obtain the glass substrate 10 having a first connecting via 11; the glass substrate 10 includes a first surface and a second surface that are oppositely arranged along a thickness direction.

[0076] Passive components are integrated on the glass substrate 10; the passive components at least include an inductor.

[0077] Wherein, integrating passive devices on the glass substrate 10 includes:

[0078] A first substructure 211 is formed on the first surface of the glass substrate 10 , a second substructure 212 is formed on the second surface, and a first connection electrode 213 is formed in the first connection via 11 ; the first substructure 211 , the first connection electrode 213 and the second substructure 212 are connected to form an inductor coil.

[0079] In order to clarify the preparation method in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the preparation method of the substrate integrated with passive devices in the embodiment of the present disclosure is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0080] The first example is a preparation method for integrating passive devices on a small-sized substrate such as a 4-inch, 6-inch, 8-inch, or 12-inch substrate. The method specifically includes the following steps:

[0081] S11, providing a glass substrate 10, and processing the glass substrate 10 to form a first connecting via 11 penetrating along the thickness direction thereof, such as Figure 4 shown.

[0082] In some examples, step S11 may include providing a glass substrate 10 , and performing laser modification on a first surface and a second surface of the glass substrate 10 by laser, and forming the glass substrate 10 having the first connecting via 11 by HF etching.

[0083] For example: (1) Cleaning: The glass substrate 10 enters a cleaning machine for cleaning.

[0084] In some examples, the thickness of the glass substrate 10 is about 0.2 mm-0.3 mm.

[0085] (2) Laser drilling: A laser is used to vertically incident laser beams onto the first surface of the glass substrate 10 to modify the surface, so as to form a first sub-via on the first surface side of the glass substrate 10. Similarly, a laser is used to vertically incident laser beams onto the second surface of the glass substrate 10 to modify the surface, so as to form a second sub-via on the second surface side of the glass substrate 10. The second sub-via is connected to the first sub-via to form a first connecting via 11.

[0086] Specifically, when the laser beam interacts with the glass substrate 10, the atoms in the glass substrate 1010 are ionized and ejected out of the first surface of the glass substrate 10 due to the high energy of the laser photons. As time goes by, the hole is gradually deepened until the first sub-via is formed. The glass substrate 10 is turned over and the second sub-via is formed according to the same principle. Among them, the generally available laser wavelength is 532nm, 355nm, 266nm, 248nm, 197nm, etc., the laser pulse width can be selected from 1-100fs, 1-100ps, 1-100ns, etc., and the type of laser can be selected from continuous laser, pulsed laser, etc. The laser drilling method can include but is not limited to the following two methods. In the first method, when the spot diameter is large, the relative position of the laser beam and the glass substrate 10 is fixed, and the glass substrate 10 is directly punched to a preset depth by high energy. At this time, the shape of the first sub-via formed is an inverted cone, and the diameter of the inverted cone decreases from top to bottom (from the second surface to the first surface). In the second method, when the spot diameter is small, the laser beam scans in a circle on the glass substrate 10, the spot focus is constantly changing, the focus depth is also constantly changing, and a spiral line is drawn from the lower surface (first surface) of the glass substrate 10 to the upper surface (second surface) of the glass substrate 10, and the spiral radius decreases from bottom to top. The glass substrate 10 is laser cut into a truncated cone shape to form a first sub-via, and the shape of the first blind hole is the first sub-via; the second sub-via is formed in the same way as the first sub-via, so it will not be repeated. It can be seen that the first connecting via 1111 formed by the first sub-via and the second sub-via is in the shape of an hourglass.

[0087] Of course, the first sub-connection via in the embodiment of the present disclosure may also be formed by irradiating only the first surface or the second surface of the glass substrate 10 with a laser beam to form a truncated cone or cylindrical connection via. The formation method may be the same as the above method, so it will not be repeated here.

[0088] (3) HF etching: Since a stress zone is formed in the area of ​​about 5-20 microns on the upper surface of the inner wall of the first connecting via 11 near the hole during the laser drilling process, the surface of the glass substrate 10 in this area is uneven and presents a molten state with many burrs, and there are a large number of microcracks and macrocracks, and there is residual stress. At this time, a 2%-20% HF etching solution is used, and wet etching is performed at an appropriate temperature for a certain period of time to etch away the glass in the stress zone, so that the interior of the first connecting via 11 and the surface area near the hole are smooth and flat, without microcracks and macrocracks, and the stress zone is completely etched away.

[0089] S12, forming a first connection electrode 213 located at the first connection via hole 11, and forming a first conductive film layer 2121 of the second substructure 212 of the inductor, such as Figure 5 shown.

[0090] In some examples, step S22 may specifically be performed as follows:

[0091] (1) Growing a seed layer: depositing a first metal material on the second surface of the glass substrate 10 by magnetron sputtering, flipping the glass substrate 10, and depositing the first metal material on the first surface by magnetron sputtering. At this time, the first metal material is formed on the side wall of the first connecting via 11 as a seed layer.

[0092] In some examples, the first metal material includes but is not limited to at least one of copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), molybdenum (Mo), and silver (Ag), and the thickness of the first metal material is about 0.2 μm to 10 μm. In the following description, the material of the first metal film layer 201 is copper as an example.

[0093] In some examples, in order to increase the adhesion between the first metal material and the first surface of the glass substrate 10, before forming the first metal material, an auxiliary metal film layer can be formed on the first surface of the glass substrate 10 by a method including but not limited to magnetron sputtering. The material of the auxiliary metal film layer includes but is not limited to at least one of nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo) alloy, and titanium (Ti) alloy, for example, MoNb, and the thickness of the auxiliary metal film layer is about 2nm-20nm.

[0094] (2) Electroplating: Place the glass substrate 10 on the electroplating machine carrier, press the power pad, place it in the hole-filling electroplating tank (special hole-filling electrolyte is used in the tank), add current, and keep the electroplating solution flowing rapidly on the first surface of the glass substrate 10. The cations in the electroplating solution on the inner wall of the first connecting via 11 obtain electrons and become atoms deposited on the inner wall. Through the special hole-filling electrolyte with a special ratio, it is possible to deposit metal copper at a high speed mainly in the first blind hole (deposition rate 0.5-3um / min), while the first surface of the glass substrate 1010 is a flat area, and the deposition rate of metal copper on these two surfaces is extremely small (0.005-0.05um / min). As time goes by, the metal copper on the inner wall of the first connecting hole gradually grows thicker to form a first metal film layer. At this time, the first metal film layer grows more than 5μm compared to the first metal material. At this time, the first metal film layer fills the first connecting via 11.

[0095] In some examples, the first metal film layer may not fully fill the first connecting via 11, such as Figure 6 As shown, in this step, it is also necessary to form a filling structure 214 in the first connecting via 11, such as Figure 7As shown, the second surface of the glass substrate 10 is flat. The material of the filling structure 214 may include an organic insulating material, such as a resin material including polyimide, epoxy resin, acrylic, polyester, photoresist, polyacrylate, polyamide, siloxane, etc. For another example, the organic insulating material includes an elastic material, such as urethane, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), etc.

[0096] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first metal film layer is taken as an example to fill the first connection via hole 11 completely.

[0097] (3) Patterning of the first surface metal film layer: coating, exposing, developing, and then etching the first metal film layer on the second surface. After etching, stripping to remove the adhesive, the first planarization layer 9 and the first metal film layer on the second surface are patterned. At this time, the first conductive film layer 2121 of the second substructure 212 of the inductor coil and the first electrode 31 of the capacitor are formed on the first surface.

[0098] In some examples, the step of forming the first conductive film layer 2121 and the first electrode plate 31 of the capacitor also includes grinding the two layers to prevent the first conductive film layer 2121 and the first electrode plate 31 of the capacitor from being smooth and having a thickness that meets the capacitor requirement.

[0099] S13, forming a first interlayer dielectric layer 5 on the side of the second substructure 212 of the inductor away from the glass substrate 10, and forming a second electrode plate 32 pattern including a capacitor on the side of the first interlayer dielectric layer 5 away from the glass substrate 10, such as Figure 8 shown.

[0100] In some examples, the material of the first interlayer dielectric layer 5 is an inorganic insulating material. For example, the first interlayer dielectric layer 5 is an inorganic insulating layer formed of silicon nitride (SiNx), or an inorganic insulating layer formed of silicon oxide (SiO2), or a laminated composite film layer of a SiNx inorganic insulating layer and a SiO2 inorganic insulating layer. Of course, the first interlayer dielectric layer 5 also serves as an intermediate dielectric layer of the capacitor.

[0101] In some examples, the second plate 32 of the capacitor can be formed by magnetron sputtering on the side of the first interlayer dielectric layer 5 away from the glass substrate 10 to form a second metal film layer, and then coated, exposed, developed, and then wet etched.
