[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of airtight packaging, and in particular to an optical window with solder balls. Background Art
[0002] At present, most of the airtight packages are packaged using a sandwich structure of a packaging tube shell-solder sheet-optical window. This packaging structure is commonly used in most fields.
[0003] However, in the above structure, when used in gas-protected packaging, the internal and external gases cannot flow, resulting in excessive internal pressure after packaging, which is prone to leakage or damage to the device. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an optical window with solder balls, which solves the problem that when gas protection packaging is performed, the internal and external gases cannot flow, causing the internal air pressure to be too high after packaging, which is easy to leak or damage the device.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts an optical window with solder balls, which includes a substrate, an optical film, solder balls and a metal film. The middle part of the substrate is coated with the optical film, the edge of the optical film is coated with the metal film, and there is a non-coated area between the metal film and the optical film. A plurality of solder balls are arranged on the metal film, and gas micro-circulation channels are formed between the plurality of solder balls.
[0006] Wherein, the substrate is composed of one or more of a Ge substrate, a Si substrate, a sapphire, and an optical glass.
[0007] The material of the solder ball includes one or more of AuSn solder, In solder, Sn solder and AuGe solder.
[0008] Wherein, the diameter of the solder ball is 50-500 μm.
[0009] Wherein, the distance between the centers of each two adjacent solder balls is 50-1000 μm.
[0010] Wherein, the material of the metal film includes one or more of Ti, Cr, Ni, Cu, Pt, Sn, and Au.
[0011] The optical window with solder balls of the present invention is plated with the optical film in the middle of the substrate, the metal film is plated at the edge of the optical film, and a plurality of solder balls are arranged on the metal film; the optical film, the metal film and the plurality of solder balls are sequentially produced on the substrate, and the plurality of solder balls are uneven, so that the gas micro-circulation channels can be reserved for the internal and external gases. When gas-protected packaging is performed, the internal and external air pressures can be kept stable, thereby improving the packaging yield. At the same time, during packaging, it is only necessary to place the optical window with solder balls at the packaging position, and the packaging can be achieved by heating and pressurizing, without the need for alignment with the packaging object, so as to facilitate the packaging operation.

[0027] In the present invention, the substrate 400, the optical film 100, the solder ball 200 and the metal film 300 are first designed according to the packaging structure to determine the required materials. Then, the optical window with solder balls is produced according to the following optical window steps:
[0028] Select a large piece of the substrate 400 → coat the optical film 100 on the side without the metal film 300 → perform the first photolithography → coat the optical film 100 on the side with the metal film 300 → perform the second photolithography → coat the metal film 300 .
[0029] The specific process is:
[0030] Select the large substrate 400: a 4-inch / 6-inch optical substrate can be used;
[0031] Coating the optical film 100 without the metal film 300: using vacuum coating equipment, first evacuate to less than 10 -2 Pa, and then SiO2 / Ta2O5 is evaporated in layers by an electron gun;
[0032] First photolithography: first evenly coat the photoresist, then expose and develop, leaving the area that needs to be coated exposed;
[0033] The optical film 100 coated with the metal film 300 is first vacuumized to less than 10 -2 Pa, and then SiO2 / Ta2O5 is evaporated in layers by an electron gun;
[0034] Photoresist stripping: using a wet process to remove photoresist;
[0035] Second photolithography: first evenly coat the photoresist, then expose and develop, leaving the area that needs to be coated exposed;
[0036] Plating the metal film 300: using vacuum coating equipment, first evacuate the vacuum to less than 10 -2 Pa, depositing the desired metal film 300 by electron gun;
[0037] Photoresist stripping: Use a wet process to remove photoresist.
[0038] By means of laser ball implantation equipment, the material of the solder ball 200 is melted and then sprayed onto the metal film 300 to form the solder ball 200. By controlling the spray trajectory and the spray speed, the solder ball 200 can be arranged in a designed shape. The space between the plurality of solder balls 200 can form the gas micro-circulation channel. When gas-protected packaging is performed, the gas flows in the gas micro-circulation channel, which can keep the internal and external air pressure stable and improve the packaging yield.
