Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of manufacturing semiconductor devices, and in particular to a semiconductor protective film and a coating process thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of semiconductor technology, the integration of semiconductor devices continues to increase, and power density has also increased. This has placed higher demands on the heat dissipation performance and thermal stability of semiconductor protective films. Although traditional semiconductor protective films can protect semiconductor devices from external environmental corrosion to a certain extent, they still have significant shortcomings in heat dissipation performance and thermal shrinkage performance.
[0003] In terms of heat dissipation performance, traditional semiconductor protective films are often unable to effectively and quickly dissipate the heat generated by semiconductor devices, causing heat accumulation inside the device, which in turn leads to temperature increases, performance degradation, and even failure. This problem is particularly prominent in high-power, high-density semiconductor devices. In terms of thermal shrinkage performance, because semiconductor devices experience temperature changes during operation, the materials of traditional protective films often do not match the thermal expansion coefficient of the semiconductor substrate, resulting in the protective film being prone to thermal shrinkage or deformation when the temperature changes, which in turn causes mechanical stress to the semiconductor device, affecting its stability and reliability. At the same time, after a period of use, the protective film will shrink at both ends, seriously affecting the service life and protective effect of the protective film. Summary of the Invention

[0112] 2. Heat shrinkage treatment: Place the sample flat on a clean metal mesh or ceramic tray, and then place it in a precision oven preheated to the set temperature of 50℃, 100℃, 150℃, or 200℃ for 1-2 hours.
[0113] 3. Cooling and measurement: Take out the sample and cool it to room temperature (about 25℃) for 30-60 minutes. After the sample cools down, measure the length (L1) and width (W1) of the sample again.
[0114] 4. The thermal shrinkage rate is calculated according to the following formula:
[0115]
[0116] 5. Test results
[0117] Table 2: Longitudinal heat shrinkage
[0118]
[0119] Table 3: Transverse thermal shrinkage
[0120]
[0121] According to the above results and the test data of the longitudinal thermal shrinkage rate and the transverse thermal shrinkage rate, the thermal shrinkage rate of the semiconductor protective film of Example 3 under different temperature conditions is significantly lower than that of Comparative Examples 2-5, indicating that the semiconductor protective film of Example 3 has better performance in terms of stability, can better adapt to the working requirements under different temperature environments, and reduce the performance changes and potential failure risks caused by thermal shrinkage.
[0122] The material of Example 3 showed better performance than the comparative example in terms of heat dissipation performance and thermal shrinkage rate.
[0123] Compared with comparative example 1, embodiment 3 shows that the raw materials of the protective film of the present invention can achieve better heat dissipation performance under specific proportions.
[0124] Compared with Comparative Example 2, Example 3 of the present invention selects silicone grease, carbon fiber, and metal particles in a reasonable ratio as heat dissipation media, which can synergistically improve heat dissipation efficiency, improve thermal cycle stability, and reduce thermal resistance. Silicone grease provides efficient thermal conductivity and electrical isolation functions; carbon fiber provides excellent thermal conductivity and mechanical strength; and metal particles improve electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and the hardness and wear resistance of the protective film.
[0125] Compared with Comparative Example 3, the stabilizer made of dibutyltin dilaurate, calcium isooctanoate and boron nitride nanoparticles, dibutyltin dilaurate, can absorb and neutralize harmful substances such as hydrogen chloride generated by thermal decomposition during the processing and use of the semiconductor protective film, inhibit the dehydrochlorination reaction, thereby improving the thermal stability of the semiconductor protective film, and can also coordinate with the active sites in the polymer molecular chain to form a stable complex, thereby limiting the movement and thermal vibration of the molecular chain and reducing the conformational change and thermal shrinkage behavior of the molecular chain when heated; calcium isooctanoate can react with hydrogen chloride to form a stable compound, reducing the effect of hydrogen chloride on the polymer chain. The catalytic degradation of the semiconductor protective film can delay the decomposition and aging process of the semiconductor protective film when heated, improve its long-term thermal stability, and reduce the thermal shrinkage of the semiconductor protective film; Boron nitride nanoparticles have excellent thermal stability and high temperature tolerance. When evenly dispersed in the semiconductor protective film, they can form a physical barrier to hinder the transfer of heat and the movement of molecular chains, reduce the degradation and cross-linking reaction of molecular chains under thermal action, thereby improving the overall thermal stability of the semiconductor protective film and reducing the thermal expansion and thermal contraction of molecular chains caused by heat accumulation; the three together can significantly improve the thermal stability of the semiconductor protective film and prevent thermal degradation and performance degradation at high temperatures.
[0126] Compared with Comparative Example 4, Example 3 shows that adding a stress buffer layer between the functional layer and the anti-corrosion layer can reduce the internal stress generated in the functional layer and the anti-corrosion layer, which has a destructive effect on the two-layer structure, improve the bonding strength and adhesion between the two layers, prevent the occurrence of interlayer separation or peeling, and improve the overall stability of the semiconductor protective film; at the same time, the stress buffer layer can coordinate the thermal expansion difference between the two layers to a certain extent through its lower elastic modulus and higher thermal expansion coefficient, reduce the generation of thermal stress, and improve thermal stability.
[0127] Among them, the combined action of styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer, α-silica and α-alumina can more effectively disperse and buffer the stress generated by the semiconductor during coating. The modified α-silica and α-alumina have better thermal stability and can effectively absorb and disperse the stress generated by semiconductor devices under temperature changes or mechanical stress, preventing the impact of thermal damage on semiconductor devices.
[0128] Compared with Comparative Example 5, Example 3 shows that the use of chemical vapor deposition to coat the stress buffer layer in the preparation of the semiconductor protective film can achieve uniform deposition on a complex three-dimensional surface, ensuring uniform coverage of the stress buffer layer to form a coating with good conformality; it can form tight chemical bonding and physical adsorption with the functional layer and the anti-corrosion layer, thereby establishing a good interface bond between the layers. This strong interface bond helps to improve the adhesion and synergy between the layers, reduce the risk of interlayer separation, peeling or interface failure, and ensure the structural integrity and performance stability of the semiconductor protective film during long-term use; chemical vapor deposition coating can accurately control the deposition thickness of the stress buffer layer. By adjusting the deposition parameters (such as reaction gas flow, deposition time, temperature and pressure, etc.), a stress buffer layer with a specific thickness can be prepared, reducing the problem of local shrinkage caused by uneven coating.
[0129] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
