Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to a manufacturing method of semiconductor devices, and particularly to a mass transfer method for Micro-LEDs. Background Art
[0002] As Figure 1 shown, the existing mass transfer adopts a double-layer structure. First, a laser sacrificial layer 3 is coated on a transparent substrate 4, then a bonding adhesive layer 2 is coated, and finally a wafer 1 (or Micro-LED chip) is directly pressed by vacuum lamination; in the double-layer structure, for the double-layer structure, if the yield of single-layer laser dissociation and degumming is 90%, the yield of the double-layer structure is only 81%.

[0029] . Belonging to a single-layer structure; compared with the double-layer structure, the single-layer structure can improve the yield of massive transfer. Description of the drawings

[0048]
[0049] In formula (I), n is an integer from 1 to 200, preferably an integer from 5 to 150, more preferably an integer from 5 to 50.
[0050] R1, R2, and R3 are each independently divalent groups, including but not limited to C1-C 14 alkyl, C6-C 14 aryl or aralkyl, or a group containing a heteroatom-containing unsaturated group; and R1, R2, and R3 thereof may be a single repeating group or a combination of two or more different groups.

[0052]
[0053] 5- or 6-membered nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group;

[0055]
[0056] A and B may be any one of O, S, and CH2 groups.
[0057] The polyamide of formula (I) of the present application can be prepared by the following method:
[0058] (a) React an excess of diamine of formula (2) with benzoate of formula (3) to form a compound of formula (4):
[0059]
[0060] (b) After the reaction in step (a) is completed, a diester monomer (such as formula (5)) is added and reacted with the compounds of formula (2) and (4) to form a compound of formula (6);
[0061]
[0062] The integer of n7 can be controlled to be from 1 to 200 by the molar ratio of formula (3) to formula (5).
[0063] According to an embodiment of the present application, the polyamide composition of the present application may include a polyamide and a solvent. For example (but not limited thereto), the solvent may be selected from the following group: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), diethyl sulfoxide, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-diethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), N,N-diethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone (NEP), N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (NVP), phenol, o-cresol, m-cresol, p-cresol, xylenol, halogenated phenol, catechol, tetrahydrofuran (THF), dioxane, dioxolane, propylene glycol methyl ether (PGME), tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (TGDE), methanol, ethanol, butanol, butyl cellosolve, γ-butyrolactone (GBL), xylene, toluene, hexamethyl phthalic amide, propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PGMEA), and mixtures thereof; the solvent is preferably a polar aprotic solvent, for example, a solvent selected from the following group: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), diethyl sulfoxide, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-diethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), N,N-diethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone (NEP), γ-butyrolactone (GBL).
[0064] According to an embodiment of the present application, based on the total weight of the overall polyamide, the content of the polyamide is about 10 wt% to about 70 wt%, preferably about 15 wt% to about 50 wt%, and the remaining part is the solvent. The amount of the solvent is not particularly limited as long as it can make the composition conducive to coating.
[0065] There are no special restrictions on the preparation method of the polyamide of the present application. For example, after the polyamide shown in formula (I) is prepared, an appropriate solvent can be added, and additives (such as leveling agents, defoaming agents, coupling agents, dehydrating agents, catalysts, etc.) can be added in appropriate proportions as needed, and then stirred evenly under a nitrogen system to obtain it.
[0066] The bonding layer with the polyamide composition described in the present application can be obtained by coating the aforementioned polyamide composition on a substrate and curing it by heating. The polyamide of the present application is a thermosetting polyamide polymer, which has excellent physical properties, mechanical properties and low coefficient of thermal expansion. The aforementioned substrate can be any known to those skilled in the relevant art, such as glass, sapphire or quartz.
[0067] In the traditional method for synthesizing polyamide, it is not easy to control the molecular weight. However, due to too high molecular weight, the viscosity is too large, resulting in poor operability and easy to produce defects such as poor leveling during coating.
[0068] The molecular weight of the polyamide oligomer of the present application is lower than that of the traditional polyamide, and the viscosity is smaller, with good operability. It can be formulated into a high solids content, and at this time, the coating contains less solvent. Therefore, the soft baking time can be shortened and the soft baking temperature can be reduced, reducing the volume shrinkage phenomenon caused by the volatilization of a large amount of solvent. It has the advantages of fast drying and film-forming speed and reducing the number of coating times required to reach the required thickness of the product.
[0069] Using the polyamide composition of the present application, it has a low glass transition temperature and high absorption and other characteristics. Therefore, it can be applied to the transfer material for low-temperature bonding and laser dissociation of Micro-LEDs, and has the functions of both a laser dissociation layer and a bonding layer; compared with the double-layer structure, it can provide a high yield of mass transfer.
[0070] The thickness of the polyamide composition coated in the present application depends on the height of the Micro-LED chip. The thickness of the polyamide composition is greater than the height of the Micro-LED, and the preferred range of the polyamide thickness is 1.01 to 100 times that of the LED chip, and the best preferred range of the polyamide thickness is 1.01 to 10 times that of the LED chip.
[0071] The curing temperature of the polyamide composition provided in the present application depends on the boiling point of the solvent used. Generally, after soft baking at 50 to 100 °C, it is then cured and leveled at a high temperature to improve the surface flatness.
[0072] After the polyamide composition provided in the present application is cured into a film, the bonding method used is vacuum pressing. The vacuum degree is 0.01 to 10 Torr, the bonding temperature is 100 to 250 °C, and the bonding pressure is 0.1 to 10 kg / cm 2 . The bonding time is 1 to 10 min.
[0073] After the polyamide composition provided by this application is cured into a film, it can be stored at room temperature without affecting laser dissociation or adhesion characteristics. Compared with epoxy materials, after curing, epoxy materials need to be processed within a short time, otherwise the adhesion characteristics will be affected and the yield will become poor.
[0074] After the laser dissociation of the polyamide composition provided by this application, plasma can be used for cleaning.
[0075] The above laser can be an Nd-YAG laser or a CO2 laser, with wavelengths of 248nm, 266nm or 355nm, but not limited thereto.

[0127] Examples:
[0128] The polyamide compositions prepared in Preparation Examples 2 to 19 were coated on a quartz glass or copper foil substrate by spin coating. First, they were soft-baked on a hot plate at 90 °C for 5 to 15 minutes to prevent surface adhesion, and then high-temperature cured and leveled in a nitrogen oven at a curing temperature of 150 to 250 °C for 1 hour. The samples to be tested were obtained (the thickness of the dried coating was 5 μm).
[0129] Comparative Example:
[0130] 0.5 moles of dimethyl terephthalate (abbreviated as A-1) was placed in a 1 L reactor filled with nitrogen. 100 mL of DMSO was added. 0.5 moles of B-1 was added at 50 °C, and then 0.5 wt% phosphoric acid was added. The mixture was stirred for 12 hours. DMSO was added again to adjust the solid content to 10%, obtaining a polyamide composition (PA-0).
[0131] Using the polyamide composition of the comparative example, since the viscosity was not controlled, the viscosity was too high to be coated.
[0132] <Test Method>
[0133] 1. Glass transition temperature test:
[0134] The PA sample coated on the copper foil substrate was etched with an acidic copper etching solution, then washed with pure water and dried in an oven. It was sent to a DSC to measure its glass transition temperature. The test results are recorded in Table 1.
[0135] 2. Ultraviolet light absorbance test:
[0136] The absorbance sample was coated on quartz glass, and its absorbance value was measured with an ultraviolet-visible spectrometer. Its thickness was controlled at 1 μm, and the test results are recorded in Table 2.
[0137] 3. Bonding adhesion test:
[0138] The polyamide film coated on the non-alkali glass was bonded to another sapphire substrate by vacuum bonding. The fixed vacuum pressure was below 0.1 Torr, and the fixed pressure was 0.5 kg / cm 2 , and the fixed bonding time was 5 minutes. The bonding temperature was the glass transition temperature plus 50 °C. After bonding, the sample was cut into a 1*1 cm size sample, and the interface adhesion (kg / cm 2 ) was confirmed with a tensile testing machine. The test results are recorded in Table 3.
[0139] 4. Laser dissociation test:

[0141] 5. Polyamide composition thickness test:
[0142] The polyamide composition was coated on the red light Micro-LED chip substrate. After baking and hardening, it was bonded to another transparent substrate by vacuum bonding. Whether there would be fragmentation due to different polyamide composition thicknesses and bonding pressures was observed and recorded in Table 5.

[0157] Note 1: The height of the Micro-LED chip (including electrodes) is 35 μm.
[0158] Note 2: NG means fragmentation occurred, and OK means no damage.
[0159] According to the experimental data in Table 1, when there are more aromatic ring structures, the structure is more rigid and the glass transition temperature is higher, as shown in PA-1 to PA-4. When esters and diamines are monomers of soft segments, their glass transition temperature is the lowest, such as PA-7 and PA-9. And according to the examples of PA-1 to PA-19, their highest glass transition temperature is 218 °C, and the lamination temperature needs to be 268 °C, slightly higher than the specification value of 250 °C. Therefore, two different ester monomers can be used in combination with diamine monomers to form a lower glass transition temperature.
[0160] The data in Table 2 are the absorption values of each example at wavelengths of 248 / 266 / 355 nm. According to the data, polyaromatic rings and heteroatoms contribute to increasing the absorption value. For example, PA-4 to PA-6 have better absorption. When both the diester and diamine are aromatic rings (PA-13 to PA16), their absorption values at 248 nm / 266 nm can exceed 2. However, due to the relatively high glass transition temperature, soft-segment diester monomers (PA-16 to PA-19) are used to maintain the absorption values at above 1.0 at the three wavelengths.
[0161] The data in Table 3 are the corresponding lamination temperature parameters set according to the glass transition temperature in Table 1, and their tensile strength values are measured. According to the experimental results, the tensile strength values are all greater than 20 kg / cm 2 。
[0162] From the data in Table 4, it can be seen that if it is desired that the laser release energy at 248 / 266 nm is less than 1000 mJ, the corresponding absorption should be as high as possible. From the examples in the table, the lowest laser release energy can be 350 mJ (@248 nm).
[0163] From the data in Table 5, it can be seen that chip fragmentation is related to the thickness of the polyamide composition, the lamination pressure, and the lamination temperature. In the examples with a relatively high lamination temperature, the thickness of the polyamide composition should be more than twice the chip height to avoid chip fragmentation under a relatively high lamination pressure, such as the example of PA-16. When the lamination temperature is relatively low, the thickness of the polyamide composition can be 1 to 1.5 times the chip height according to the lamination pressure.
