In the fields of smart phones, wearable devices, IoT devices and high-performance computing, the market has an increasingly urgent demand for electronic packaging technology with compact size, high-density integration and excellent heat dissipation performance. This trend requires electronic packaging structures to be able to integrate more functional modules in a limited space, achieve higher circuit density and faster signal transmission speed, and also effectively manage the heat caused by high power density to ensure reliable operation of the equipment.

[0025] S3, stacking dielectric layers and conductive layers layer by layer on the insulating substrate and embedded electronic components by deposition technology to build a multi-layer interconnection network, wherein vertical interconnection channels are formed by deep reactive ion etching technology to achieve electrical connection between various conductive layers; Through deposition techniques (such as chemical vapor deposition and physical vapor deposition), dielectric layers and conductive layers are alternately deposited on the substrate and embedded electronic components to build a multi-layer interconnection structure. Through deep reactive ion etching (DRIE), vertical interconnection channels (through holes or vias) are formed at designated locations to achieve electrical connections between conductive layers of different layers, build a three-dimensional circuit network, and greatly improve the integration and functionality of the circuit.

[0026] S4, introducing a thermal management structure, integrating a graphene-based heat sink in a multi-layer interconnection network, and forming a through thermal channel to obtain a component blank; By integrating a graphene-based heat sink with high thermal conductivity in a multi-layer interconnection network, introducing a thermal management structure, embedding the graphene heat sink in the reserved heat dissipation channel position, and forming a continuous heat channel through the top and bottom through design, it is ensured that the heat generated by the electronic components can be quickly transferred to the external heat sink, effectively reducing the operating temperature of the device, improving the performance and reliability of the components, and finally obtaining a component embryo with preliminary functions.

[0027] S5, encapsulating the component blank, covering it with a protective coating, and defining the connection pads of the lead-out terminals to form an embedded multi-layer interconnected electronic packaging structure.

[0028] The component blank is packaged as a whole. First, a protective coating is applied to cover the surface of the component blank to provide mechanical protection and environmental isolation. Then, the lead end of the internal conductive layer is exposed at the specified position through photolithography and etching processes, and a connection pad is formed after metallization treatment to achieve reliable connection with the external circuit. In this way, the preparation of the embedded multi-layer interconnected electronic packaging structure is completed, and a packaging product with high-density integration, excellent heat dissipation performance and reliable electrical connection is obtained.

[0029] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: by pre-forming micro-grooves matching the size of electronic components on an insulating substrate, the surface-treated electronic components are accurately embedded therein and in close contact with the inner wall of the substrate, and dielectric layers and conductive layers are stacked layer by layer on the substrate and the surface of the embedded electronic components by deposition technology to construct a multi-layer interconnection network structure; and vertical interconnection channels are formed by deep reactive ion etching technology, and graphene-based heat sinks are introduced into the multi-layer interconnection network to form a through heat channel to enhance the heat dissipation performance of the entire structure, and the component blanks are packaged, covered with a protective coating, and the connection pads of the lead-out ends are defined to complete the preparation of the embedded multi-layer interconnection electronic packaging structure; the method embeds and installs electronic components in the substrate, and uses the method of depositing dielectric layers and conductive layers to construct a high-density, multi-level interconnection network, thereby realizing the miniaturization and high integration of electronic equipment, taking into account the requirements of compact size and heat dissipation performance, and providing a high-density interconnection and efficient heat dissipation solution for the field of electronic packaging.

[0030] In this embodiment, it is specifically explained that step S1 specifically includes: S11, providing an insulating substrate with high thermal conductivity; the insulating substrate is selected from a substrate of a high molecular polymer material.

[0031] S12, coating a layer of photosensitive etching glue on the surface of the insulating substrate to form a uniform photosensitive coating; the photosensitive etching glue is sensitive to light of a specific wavelength and can undergo a chemical reaction through light in a subsequent photolithography process, thereby providing necessary conditions for the formation of a micro-groove pattern.

[0032] S13, using a photolithography technique and a photolithography mask to expose a pattern of micro grooves on the photosensitive coating according to the size and position of the electronic component to be embedded; Using photolithography and a customized photolithography mask, the designed micro-groove pattern is accurately exposed onto the photosensitive coating. According to the specific size and position of the electronic component to be embedded, the exposed pattern is ensured to accurately match the component. This step determines the positional accuracy and dimensional accuracy of the groove.

[0033] S14, developing the exposed photosensitive coating to remove the photosensitive etching resin in the exposed area, revealing the micro-groove area on the surface of the insulating substrate; The exposed photosensitive coating is developed, and the developer dissolves and removes the photosensitive etchant in the exposed area, leaving the etchant in the unexposed area to protect the substrate. In this way, an open area of ​​micro-grooves is formed on the surface of the insulating substrate, ready for subsequent etching processing.

[0034] S15, using laser micro-etching processing technology, etches the micro-groove area to process a micro-groove of preset depth and size, so that the size of the micro-groove matches the electronic component to be embedded.

[0035] Laser micro-etching technology is used to precisely etch the exposed micro-groove area. By controlling the energy, focus and scanning path of the laser, micro-grooves with preset depth and precise size are accurately processed to ensure that the grooves are perfectly matched with the size of the electronic components, providing an ideal physical space for the embedding of electronic components.

[0036] In this embodiment, it is further explained that after step S15, the following steps are further included: S16, removing the residual photosensitive etching glue, and cleaning and drying the etched insulating substrate; Use organic solvents (such as acetone and isopropyl alcohol) to remove the residual photosensitive etching glue on the surface of the substrate to ensure that there is no chemical residue. Subsequently, the etched insulating substrate is thoroughly cleaned to remove particles and impurities, and then dried. This step ensures the cleanliness of the substrate surface.

[0037] S17, plasma cleaning is performed on the inner wall of the micro-groove to perform surface modification treatment, so as to improve the bonding force between the electronic component and the inner wall of the groove, and ensure that the subsequently embedded electronic component has good mechanical stability and thermal conductivity.

[0038] In this embodiment, it is specifically described that step S3 specifically includes: S31, cleaning the surfaces of the insulating substrate and the embedded electronic components by a plasma cleaning method, and performing oxidation treatment on the cleaned surfaces to form a thin oxide layer for surface treatment; Plasma cleaning technology is used to thoroughly clean the surface of insulating substrates and embedded electronic components to remove organic matter, particles and other impurities on the surface. Subsequently, the cleaned surface is oxidized to form a thin oxide layer (such as silicon dioxide or aluminum oxide). This oxide layer can improve the adhesion of subsequent dielectric and conductive layers, improve interface quality, and ensure the uniformity and stability of subsequent deposited materials.

[0039] S32, depositing a layer of dielectric material with a thickness of 200 nm to 1 μm on the surface after the surface treatment by chemical vapor deposition technology to form a first dielectric layer; the dielectric material is silicon dioxide or silicon nitride; Using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technology, a layer of dielectric material with a thickness between 200 nanometers and 1 micron is deposited on the surface of the surface-treated insulating substrate and electronic components. The commonly used materials are silicon dioxide (SiO2) or silicon nitride (Si3N4). This dielectric layer acts as an insulator, isolating the electrical interference between different conductive layers, while providing a smooth surface.

[0040] S33, spin-coating a layer of photoresist with a thickness of 1 μm to 3 μm on the surface of the first dielectric layer, using ultraviolet exposure lithography technology to expose the pattern of the through-hole position to the photoresist through a mask plate, and performing development treatment to form an exposed area corresponding to the first interconnected through-hole on the first dielectric layer.

[0041] S34, in the plasma reaction chamber, using etching process parameters with a high aspect ratio to anisotropically etch the exposed area to form a first interconnection through hole penetrating the first dielectric layer.

[0042] The processed sample is placed in a plasma reaction chamber, and a high aspect ratio anisotropic etching process is used to etch the exposed area after the photoresist is removed. By precisely controlling etching parameters such as gas composition, power and time, a first interconnection through hole with vertical sidewalls and precise dimensions is formed, penetrating the first dielectric layer, providing a channel for vertical electrical connection between conductive layers.

[0043] S35, using a physical vapor deposition technique, such as sputtering deposition, to deposit a layer of metal conductive material with a thickness of 100 nm to 500 nm on the first dielectric layer and the first interconnection through hole to form a first conductive layer: Using physical vapor deposition (PVD) technology (such as sputtering deposition or electron beam evaporation), a layer of metal conductive material with a thickness of 100 nanometers to 500 nanometers is deposited on the first dielectric layer and the first interconnection through hole etched. Commonly used metals are copper (Cu), aluminum (Al) or tungsten (W). This layer of conductive material fills the through hole and covers the surface of the dielectric layer to form the first conductive layer and build an electrical connection.

[0044] S36, spin-coating a layer of positive photoresist with a thickness of 1 μm to 3 μm on the first conductive layer, and using photolithography technology to prepare a conductive pattern on the first conductive layer to obtain a first layer of metal interconnection lines. The conductive pattern can be formed by exposing the conductive pattern to the photoresist, then developing, removing the photoresist in the exposed area, and then using dry etching to remove the exposed conductive material, leaving the conductive pattern protected by the photoresist.

[0045] S37, depositing a layer of dielectric material again on the patterned first conductive layer to form a second dielectric layer, and forming a second interconnection through hole and a second conductive layer on the second dielectric layer; In step S37, the process of step S32 is repeated to deposit a layer of dielectric material on the patterned first conductive layer again to form a second dielectric layer. Then, according to the processes of steps S33 and S34, a second interconnection via is formed on the second dielectric layer. Next, according to the processes of steps S35 and S36, a second conductive layer is deposited and patterned to form a second layer of metal interconnection lines to achieve vertical electrical connections and horizontal circuit layout between different layers.

[0046] S38, according to design requirements, repeatedly stack multiple dielectric layers and conductive layers to construct a multi-layer interconnection network with a required number of layers; wherein the multi-layer interconnection through holes constitute a vertical interconnection channel.

[0047] According to the requirements of the circuit design, the above steps of dielectric layer deposition, through-hole etching, conductive layer deposition and patterning are repeated to build multi-level dielectric and conductive layers layer by layer until the required number of layers is reached. The interconnecting through-holes between the layers form vertical interconnection channels to achieve electrical connections between the conductive layers, forming a complete three-dimensional multi-layer interconnection network to meet the integration requirements of complex circuit systems.

[0048] In this embodiment, it is specifically described that step S4 specifically includes: S41, determining the key areas where heat dissipation needs to be enhanced according to the heat power consumption and heat distribution of the embedded electronic components, designing the layout, size and position of the heat dissipation channel running through the entire multi-layer interconnection network, and reserving the heat dissipation channel area in the layout design of the multi-layer interconnection network; Design the layout, size, and location of the heat dissipation channels throughout the multi-layer interconnect network to ensure that heat can be efficiently transferred from the inside to the external heat dissipation components. During the layout design of the multi-layer interconnect network, reserve these heat dissipation channel areas and avoid placing conductive lines or filling dielectric materials at these locations.

[0049] S42, providing a graphene-based heat sink, and placing the graphene-based heat sink in the reserved heat dissipation channel area so as to be in close contact with the underlying dielectric layer; Prepare a graphene-based heat sink with high thermal conductivity and place it in the pre-reserved heat dissipation channel area. Ensure that the graphene-based heat sink is in close contact with the underlying dielectric layer to establish an effective heat conduction path. This step enhances the thermal management capabilities of the overall packaging structure by utilizing the excellent thermal conductivity of graphene, helping to quickly conduct heat generated by electronic components.

[0050] S43, depositing an adhesion promoting layer with a thickness of 5 nm to 20 nm on the upper and lower surfaces of the graphene-based heat sink respectively; In order to enhance the adhesion between the graphene-based heat sink and the upper and lower dielectric layers or conductive layers, an adhesion-promoting layer with a thickness of 5 to 20 nanometers is deposited on the upper and lower surfaces respectively. Commonly used adhesion-promoting materials include titanium (Ti) or chromium (Cr). This ultra-thin metal layer can improve the interfacial bonding between graphene and other materials, ensuring the mechanical stability and long-term reliability of the structure.

[0051] S44, depositing a dielectric buffer layer with a thickness of 10 nm to 50 nm on each of the adhesion promoting layers, wherein the material of the dielectric buffer layer is silicon nitride or aluminum oxide.

[0052] On the upper and lower surfaces of the adhesion-promoting layer, a dielectric buffer layer with a thickness of 10 to 50 nanometers is deposited, and the material used is silicon nitride (Si3N4) or aluminum oxide (Al2O3). This dielectric buffer layer has excellent insulation performance and thermal stability, which can not only protect the graphene-based heat sink, but also avoid electrical interference between the upper and lower conductive layers. In this embodiment, it is further explained that after step S44, the following steps are further included: S45, using an etching process to open a thermal contact area corresponding to the position of the heat dissipation channel on the top layer or bottom layer of the multi-layer interconnection network, remove the top layer or bottom layer dielectric layer and the protective layer, and expose the end surface of the graphene-based heat sink; At the top and bottom layers of the multi-layer interconnect network, the dielectric layer and protective layer corresponding to the heat dissipation channel are precisely removed through photolithography and etching processes to form thermal contact areas. In this way, the end surface of the graphene-based heat sink is exposed, providing a direct physical channel for subsequent connection with external heat dissipation components. S46, coating a layer of high thermal conductivity interface material with a thickness of 10 μm to 50 μm on the end face of the graphene; the material of the high thermal conductivity interface material layer is a thermal conductive paste or thermal conductive glue containing silver nanoparticles; and the process is completed by dispensing or screen printing.

[0053] S47, heat dissipation components are installed in the thermal contact area of ​​the top layer or the bottom layer respectively, so that the heat dissipation components are attached to the high thermal conductivity interface material layer; wherein the heat dissipation components are metal heat sinks, heat pipes or graphene film heat sinks; the internal heat is effectively transferred to the external heat sink to improve the overall heat dissipation performance.

[0054] S48, during the patterning process of each dielectric layer, the heat dissipation channel of each layer is kept connected to form a connected heat channel to obtain a component blank.

[0055] During the preparation and patterning of each dielectric layer, the heat dissipation channel is always aligned and connected in the vertical direction without being filled or blocked by other materials. In this way, a continuous heat channel is formed from the embedded electronic components to the external heat dissipation components, ensuring efficient heat conduction.

[0056] In this embodiment, it is specifically described that step S5 specifically includes: S51, cleaning and preparing the surface of the component blank, using plasma cleaning and wet cleaning methods to remove impurity particles on the surface; The entire surface of the component blank is cleaned. First, plasma cleaning technology is used to remove organic matter, particles and oxides on the surface using active plasma to improve surface cleanliness and surface energy. Subsequently, wet cleaning is performed using ultrapure water, anhydrous ethanol or other solvent cleaning agents to further remove residual impurities and particulate matter. Finally, the component blank is blown dry with high-purity nitrogen or clean compressed air to ensure that the surface is dust-free and contaminant-free, achieving a high level of cleanliness, and preparing for the subsequent coating of protective coatings.

[0057] S52, using spin coating technology, uniformly coating a protective coating with a thickness of 5 μm to 20 μm on the top layer and side wall surface of the component blank, and performing a curing treatment; the polymer protective coating is polyimide, epoxy resin or liquid crystal polymer; By controlling the rotation speed and time of spin coating, the coating thickness is adjusted between 5μm and 20μm to ensure the uniformity of the coating. Subsequently, the coated component blank is placed in a curing furnace and cured according to the temperature curve required by the material, so that the coating material is fully cross-linked and cured to form a dense protective layer, thereby improving the mechanical strength and environmental stability of the package.

[0058] S53, define the connection pad position of the lead-out terminal, spin-coat a layer of photoresist on the protective coating, use ultraviolet photolithography technology to expose and develop, form a pattern of the lead-out terminal position, and then use anisotropic dry etching technology to etch the protective coating in the exposed area until the lead-out terminal of the conductive layer below is exposed.

[0060] Electroless deposition does not require external current and relies on chemical reactions to uniformly deposit metal films on the metal surface, which can form a uniform metal layer in complex shapes and tiny areas. This metal layer has high conductivity and good welding properties, forming a reliable connection pad.

[0061] S55, heat-treating the connection pads to form an embedded multi-layer interconnected electronic packaging structure. In order to improve the compactness and adhesion of the metal layer of the connection pads, heat treatment is performed on them. Heat treatment is usually carried out in an inert atmosphere (such as nitrogen, argon) or a reducing atmosphere (such as hydrogen), with a temperature range of 100°C to 300°C and a time of 30 minutes to 1 hour. Heat treatment can eliminate stress in the metal layer, improve the grain structure, and enhance the conductivity and corrosion resistance of the metal layer. At the same time, heat treatment helps the metal layer to combine with the underlying conductive layer, and improves the mechanical strength and reliability of the connection pads. After heat treatment, the preparation process of the entire embedded multi-layer interconnected electronic packaging structure is completed, and finally an electronic packaging product with high-density interconnection, high-performance heat dissipation and reliable electrical connection is obtained.
