Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of high heat flux density chip heat dissipation, and in particular to a diamond microchannel heat sink and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The rapid development of emerging fields such as artificial intelligence, 5G communications, and new energy vehicles has driven electronic devices to develop towards miniaturization, integration, and high power, resulting in a significant increase in chip heat flux density, with local heat flux density even exceeding 1000W / cm², a rapid increase in power consumption, and increasingly severe chip heating problems. Within the limited volume of the chip, how to smoothly discharge the heat generated by high integration and high energy density has become one of the most challenging issues in 3D packaging of high heat flux density chips.
[0003] The heat dissipation coefficient of traditional air-cooled radiators is too low to meet the heat dissipation requirements of high heat flux density electronic devices. Microchannel radiators (hydraulic channel diameter is less than 1mm) use a microchannel structure as a heat exchanger. The flowing liquid working medium contacts the microchannel wall surface, and then quickly removes the heat of the electronic device. It has the advantages of small size and large heat dissipation specific surface area. It is an advanced cooling method to solve the heat dissipation problem of ultra-high heat flux density electronic chips. In addition to its excellent thermal conductivity, diamond is also the hardest material in nature and has extremely strong chemical stability. These properties make it difficult to process diamond microchannel radiators using conventional mechanical processing methods or chemical processes.
[0004] The magazine Diamond & Related Materials, 2013, Vol. 34, pp. 19-24, reported a method of processing diamond microchannels using plasma etching technology. This method is a process that uses the interaction between plasma (i.e., ionized gas) and the material surface to remove or modify the material surface. The equipment required is expensive, the process is complex, the processing efficiency is extremely low, and there is a risk of gas contamination.
[0005] Chinese patents CN101071756B, CN110557936B, CN113337806B, CN114758996, etc. use chemical vapor deposition to grow diamond microchannels, but this method needs to be combined with plasma etching or deep reactive ion etching or masking to assist in preparation. In addition, after the diamond microchannel is grown, the top surface of the microchannel needs to be further ground and polished to meet the requirements of connecting chips and other heat sink materials. The preparation of diamond microchannels by chemical vapor deposition has high requirements on processing equipment, complex processes, low processing efficiency, and high costs.
[0006] Chinese patents CN108682662B, CN113267082B, CN114242598A, and CN118507440A disclose methods for processing diamond microchannels using lasers, but the overall processing efficiency of this method is relatively high, but the processing capacity is easily attenuated with the distance of the focal length, and the processing section is inevitably conical. In addition, the laser processing temperature is very high, and the surface of the diamond microchannel after processing will be severely graphitized, and thermal cracks will also be easily generated. The thermal conductivity of the generated graphite layer is much lower than that of diamond, which will seriously reduce the performance of the diamond microchannel radiator. Even after pickling, the surface of the diamond microchannel after laser processing cannot be cleaned of graphite, and the surface graphite layer needs to be removed by plasma etching method, which further increases the production cost.
