[0002] As a material with extremely high hardness and brittle characteristics, diamond is widely used in various fields, such as electronics, optics, tool processing, etc. At present, processes such as cutting, grinding, and polishing of diamond crystals are required for the industrial utilization of diamond.

[0003] Common diamond polishing schemes generally include three processes: rough grinding, fine grinding, and fine polishing. Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is a super-precision polishing method, which is widely used in the planarization treatment of the surfaces of integrated circuit chips, computer hard disks, micro-electromechanical systems, optical glass, etc. However, due to the extremely high chemical inertness and hardness of diamond, conventional polishing liquids are difficult to achieve an ideal ultra-smooth surface and non-damaged surface. Therefore, there are almost no fine polishing liquids for diamond substrates on the market. At present, the main schemes for fine polishing of diamond are: energy beam polishing technology, laser polishing, ion beam polishing, plasma-assisted polishing, and laser-assisted polishing. Although these polishing methods have a high removal rate, due to the extremely high hardness of diamond, the accuracy after fine polishing using traditional polishing methods is limited, and the surface roughness of the processed workpiece is difficult to control below 10 μm. Moreover, traditional polishing methods may also cause thermal cracks or other damages to the diamond surface, which greatly limits the application of diamond.

Detailed Embodiments

[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] It should be noted that if there are directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back,...) involved in the embodiments of the present invention, the directional indications are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement conditions between components in a specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0019] In addition, if there are descriptions such as "first", "second", etc. involved in the embodiments of the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In addition, if "and / or" or "and / or" appears throughout the text, its meaning includes three parallel solutions. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes solution A, solution B, or a solution that satisfies both A and B at the same time. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that those of ordinary skill in the art can implement them. When the combination of technical solutions results in contradictions or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0020] As a material with extremely high hardness and brittle characteristics, diamond is widely used in various fields, such as electronics, optics, tool processing, etc. At present, diamond crystals need to be cut, ground, polished and other processes to be industrially utilized. The common diamond polishing solutions generally include three processes: rough grinding, fine grinding and fine polishing.

[0021] Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is an ultra-precision polishing method, which is widely used in the planarization of the surfaces of integrated circuit chips, computer hard disks, micro-electromechanical systems, optical glass, etc. However, due to the extremely high chemical inertness and hardness of diamond, it is difficult for conventional polishing fluids to achieve an ideal ultra-smooth surface and non-damaged surface. Therefore, there are almost no fine polishing fluids for diamond substrates on the market. At present, the main solutions for fine polishing of diamond are: energy beam polishing technology, laser polishing, ion beam polishing, plasma-assisted polishing, and laser-assisted polishing. Although these polishing methods have a high removal rate, due to the extremely high hardness of diamond, the accuracy after fine polishing using traditional polishing methods is limited, and it is difficult to control the surface roughness of the processed workpiece below 10 μm. Moreover, traditional polishing methods may also cause thermal cracks or other damages to the diamond surface, thus greatly limiting the application of diamond. Therefore, it is still of great significance for those skilled in the art to solve the problems of low polishing rate and poor product quality existing in the diamond polishing process.

[0022] Based on the above background, the present invention provides a fine polishing fluid for a diamond substrate. The fine polishing fluid for a diamond substrate includes a first fine polishing fluid or a second fine polishing fluid, wherein: The first fine polishing fluid includes the following raw materials in parts by mass: 1-7 parts of a first abrasive, 0.1-1 part of a dispersant, 0.1-1 part of a suspending agent, 2-3 parts of an oxidizing agent, and the balance is water, totaling 100 parts. The first abrasive includes diamond or alumina; The second fine polishing fluid includes the following raw materials in parts by mass: 89-97 parts of a second abrasive, 0.1-1 part of a dispersant, 3-10 parts of an oxidizing agent, totaling 100 parts. The second abrasive includes silica sol.

[0023] The technical solution of the present invention selects one of diamond, alumina, and silica sol as the abrasive. The dispersant is used to make the abrasive particles disperse evenly, which is beneficial to obtaining a relatively consistent processed surface during the fine polishing process of the processed workpiece; the suspending agent is used to prevent the abrasive from depositing at the bottom during the polishing process, ensuring the uniform distribution of the abrasive and reducing the possibility of damage such as scratching and increased roughness to the workpiece surface; the oxidizing agent reacts with the diamond surface to generate an oxidation layer with higher reactivity and relatively softer properties, thereby increasing the surface energy of the diamond substrate, softening the surface, making it easier for the diamond substrate to physically cut with the abrasive, thus improving the polishing rate. Moreover, after being treated with the oxidizing agent, the surface is smoother and brighter, and the processed part can also be brightened, further improving the surface quality of the processed workpiece. The fine polishing fluid provided by the technical solution of the present invention can be used to solve the problems of low polishing rate and low surface roughness of the processed workpiece.

[0024] The fine polishing liquid for diamond substrates provided by the present invention does not require modification of the abrasive. By optimizing the components of the fine polishing liquid, diamond can be selected as the abrasive, or alumina or silica sol can also be used as the abrasive. After applying the prepared fine polishing liquid to the polishing of diamond substrates, the surface roughness of the processed workpieces is small. In addition, selecting diamond or alumina as the abrasive can reduce the risk of crystallization. Prolonged use is beneficial for cost control, and the processed workpieces are easy to clean and more environmentally friendly. Using silica sol as the abrasive has a high processing yield and low raw material cost. In addition, the fine polishing liquid for diamond substrates provided by the present invention can be recycled multiple times, which is beneficial for cost savings.

[0025] It should be noted that if there is too much abrasive, scratches will occur and the TTV (Total Thickness Variation) will increase; if there is too little first abrasive, the polishing rate will decrease; if there is too much oxidant, surface pits, orange peel, etc. will occur, and if there is too little oxidant, the polishing rate will decrease. Therefore, setting the dosages of the first abrasive, second abrasive, dispersant, and oxidant within the above ranges can reduce the scratching phenomenon during fine polishing and avoid too slow a polishing rate at the same time. If the dosage of the suspending agent is insufficient, sedimentation of abrasive particles may occur, resulting in uneven surface treatment of the workpiece; if the dosage of the suspending agent is too large, the viscosity of the fine polishing liquid will be too high, the relative movement between the abrasive particles and the workpiece surface will be hindered, the effective contact will be reduced, and the material removal efficiency will be lowered. Therefore, setting the dosage of the suspending agent within the above range can ensure both the rate and obtain a better processed surface.

[0026] In an embodiment of the present invention, the fine polishing liquid for diamond substrates includes a first fine polishing liquid. In the first fine polishing liquid, the median particle size D50 of the diamond is 0.1 - 5 μm. If the particle size exceeds the above range, the roughness and TTV will increase, increasing the risk of scratching; if it is lower than the above range, the polishing rate will be affected. The technical solution of the present invention sets the particle size of the diamond within the above range, which can achieve a higher polishing rate and obtain a better polishing effect at the same time.

[0027] In an embodiment of the present invention, the fine polishing liquid for diamond substrates includes a first fine polishing liquid. In the first fine polishing liquid, the median particle size D50 of the alumina is 0.5 - 20 μm. If the particle size exceeds the above range, the roughness and TTV will increase, increasing the risk of scratching; if it is lower than the above range, the polishing rate will be affected. Setting the particle size of the alumina within the above range can achieve a higher polishing rate and a better polishing effect at the same time.

[0028] In an embodiment of the present invention, the polishing liquid for diamond substrate comprises a first polishing liquid, in which the dispersant comprises at least one of Disper850 dispersant, DisperST-400 dispersant, AD8030 dispersant, sodium pyrophosphate, sodium silicate and potassium silicate. The dispersant is used to disperse the abrasive particles uniformly.

[0029] In an embodiment of the present invention, the polishing liquid for diamond substrate comprises a first polishing liquid, in which the suspending agent comprises at least one of xanthan gum, carbomer, sodium polyacrylate and polyacrylamide. The suspending agent is used to prevent abrasives from being deposited at the bottom during polishing, resulting in insufficient solid content of the actual abrasives, ensuring that the abrasives are evenly distributed, and that soft lumps do not occur, thereby causing scratches on the workpiece surface, increased roughness and other damages; insufficient solid content will also lead to a slow polishing process.

[0030] In an embodiment of the present invention, the polishing liquid for diamond substrate comprises a first polishing liquid, in which the oxidant comprises at least one of hydrogen peroxide, potassium ferrate, ammonium bifluoride, sodium hypochlorite and ferric chloride. The oxidant can chemically react with the surface of the diamond substrate, oxidize the surface layer into corresponding oxides, increase the surface energy of the diamond substrate, thereby softening the surface, making the diamond substrate easier to physically cut with the abrasive, and increasing the removal rate. After adding the oxidant treatment, the workpiece can also be brightened, further improving the surface quality of the workpiece.

[0031] In an embodiment of the present invention, the polishing liquid for diamond substrates includes a second polishing liquid, in which the median particle size D50 of the silica sol is 60-150 nm. Particle sizes beyond the above range will increase the roughness and TTV, increasing the risk of scratches, and those below the above range will affect the polishing rate. The technical solution of the present invention sets the particle size of the silica sol within the above range, which can achieve a higher polishing rate and obtain a better polishing effect.

[0032] In an embodiment of the present invention, the polishing liquid for diamond substrate comprises a second polishing liquid, in which the dispersant comprises at least one of Disper850 dispersant, DisperST-400 dispersant, AD8030 dispersant, sodium pyrophosphate, sodium silicate and potassium silicate. The dispersant is used to disperse the abrasive particles uniformly.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present invention, the fine polishing liquid for a diamond substrate includes a second fine polishing liquid. In the second fine polishing liquid, the oxidizing agent includes at least one of hydrogen peroxide, potassium ferrate, ammonium bifluoride, sodium hypochlorite, and ferric chloride. The oxidizing agent can chemically react with the surface of the diamond substrate to oxidize the surface layer into the corresponding oxide, increasing the surface energy of the diamond substrate, thereby softening the surface and making the diamond substrate more easily physically cut by the abrasive, improving the removal rate. Adding an oxidizing agent can also brighten the workpiece, further enhancing the surface quality of the processed workpiece.

[0034] The present invention provides a method for preparing the fine polishing liquid for a diamond substrate. The fine polishing liquid for a diamond substrate includes a first fine polishing liquid. The method for preparing the fine polishing liquid for a diamond substrate includes the following steps: A1. Mix water and a suspending agent to obtain a first mixed liquid; A2. Adjust the pH of the first mixed liquid to a first preset pH, and then mix the first mixed liquid, an oxidizing agent, and a dispersing agent to obtain a second mixed liquid; A3. Mix the second mixed liquid and a first abrasive to obtain the fine polishing liquid for a diamond substrate.

[0035] When diamond or alumina is selected as the abrasive, directly mixing raw materials such as the abrasive, dispersing agent, and oxidizing agent will result in insufficient mixing of the raw materials, and then deviation in the performance test of the obtained fine polishing liquid (such as viscosity, conductivity, etc.). The suspending agent will increase the viscosity, and the dispersing agent will decrease the viscosity. Adding them together will cause instability in the solution system and damage to the polishing liquid system. The technical solution of the present invention selects to first add the suspending agent, then add the oxidizing agent and the dispersing agent, and finally add the abrasive, which is beneficial for the abrasive to be fully dispersed and obtain a fine polishing liquid with stable performance.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present invention, the mixing of each raw material is carried out under stirring, wherein: In step A1, the rotation speed of the stirrer is 800 - 1000 rpm, and the stirring time is 15 - 20 min.

[0037] In step A2, the rotation speed of the stirrer is 1200 - 1600 rpm, and the stirring time is 15 - 20 min.

[0038] In step A3, the rotation speed of the stirrer is 1200 - 1600 rpm, and the stirring time is 15 - 20 min.

[0039] When diamond or alumina is selected as the abrasive, setting the frequency and stirring time of the stirring kettle within the above range can evenly disperse the abrasive and obtain a stable polishing liquid system.

[0040] In an embodiment of the present invention, the pH value of the first preset pH is 8 to 10. The main purpose of adjusting the pH of the first mixed solution to the first preset pH is to provide a pH environment in which the oxidant and the suspending agent can take effect. When the pH is too low, the suspension and dispersion effect may decrease, resulting in a poor surface effect; when the pH is too high, the oxidizing ability of the oxidant may decrease, resulting in a reduced rate.

[0041] In an embodiment of the present invention, an alkaline pH regulator is used to adjust the pH of the first mixed solution, and the alkaline pH regulator includes at least one of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, triethanolamine and ammonia water.

[0042] The present invention provides a method for preparing a fine polishing liquid for a diamond substrate, wherein the fine polishing liquid for a diamond substrate comprises a second fine polishing liquid, and the method for preparing the fine polishing liquid for a diamond substrate comprises the following steps: B1, first add the second abrasive into the mixer, start the stirring kettle, then add the oxidant and the dispersant, mix, and obtain the third mixed solution; B2. Adjusting the pH of the third mixed solution to a second preset pH to obtain the fine polishing solution for the diamond substrate.

[0043] When silica sol is used as an abrasive, the abrasive is first dispersed, and then a dispersant and an oxidant are added to mix the raw materials sufficiently, which is conducive to obtaining a stable polishing system. It should be noted that when silica sol is used as an abrasive, the silica sol can be directly selected from silica sol with a solid content of 40-60%, or the silica sol can be mixed with water to make the solid content of the silica sol reach 40-60%.

[0044] In an embodiment of the present invention, the step B1 specifically includes: Add abrasive into the mixer, stir for 15-20 minutes, then add oxidant and dispersant, stir for 15-20 minutes to obtain a third mixed solution; Wherein, the rotation speed of the stirrer is 1200~1600rpm.

[0045] By setting the frequency and stirring time of the stirring kettle within the above range, the abrasive can be evenly dispersed.

[0046] In an embodiment of the present invention, the pH value of the second preset pH is 8 to 10. The main function of adjusting the pH of the third mixed solution to the second preset pH is to make the abrasive have a better suspension and dispersion effect and provide a suitable pH environment for the oxidant. When the pH is too low, the suspension and dispersion effect may decrease, resulting in a poor surface effect; when the pH is too high, the oxidizing ability of the oxidant may decrease, resulting in a reduced removal rate. Therefore, setting the pH value of the second polishing liquid within the above range is conducive to maintaining a good suspension effect of the polishing liquid and obtaining a good processed surface.

[0047] In an embodiment of the present invention, an alkaline pH regulator is used to adjust the pH of the third mixed solution, and the alkaline pH regulator includes at least one of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, triethanolamine, and ammonia water.

[0048] The present invention provides a polishing method for a diamond substrate, comprising the following steps: C1. Provide a diamond substrate and a polishing pad; C2. Apply the fine polishing liquid to the polishing pad, and use the polishing pad to polish the diamond substrate to obtain a polished diamond substrate; Wherein, the fine polishing liquid adopts the fine polishing liquid for diamond substrate described in the above technical solution or the fine polishing liquid prepared by the preparation method of the fine polishing liquid for diamond substrate described in the above technical solution.

[0049] The fine polishing liquid provided by the present invention can be carried out according to the conventional grinding process. In an embodiment of the present invention, the polishing is carried out on a single-sided grinding machine. The workpiece is placed on a customized carrier, the fine polishing liquid is applied to the polishing pad, and then the diamond substrate is polished with the polishing pad containing the fine polishing liquid. After the polishing time ends, the workpiece is taken off and cleaned to obtain a polished diamond substrate. The process parameters of the polishing are: the upper rotation speed is 50 rpm, the lower rotation speed is 200 rpm, the pressure is 18 kg, and the time is set to 4 h.

[0050] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following embodiments are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0070] Test method for surface roughness: Use a white - light interferometer to test the surface roughness. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0071] Table 2 Test Results of the Fine Polishing Liquids of Examples 1 - 11 and Comparative Examples 1 - 3

[0072] As can be seen from Table 1, after polishing the diamond substrate with the fine polishing liquids of Examples 1-11, the roughness of the diamond substrate can be reduced, and the surface of the machined workpiece can be improved.

[0073] From the test results of Example 1 and Examples 6-7, Example 2 and Examples 8-9, Example 3 and Examples 10-11, it can be seen that increasing the abrasive particle size will increase the roughness; decreasing the particle size will reduce the polishing rate.

[0074] From the test results of Example 2 and Comparative Examples 1-3, the test result of Example 2 is better than that of Comparative Example 2, indicating that not using a suspending agent will deteriorate the surface quality of the machined workpiece. This is because without adding a suspending agent, the uniformity of the powder becomes poor. The test result of Example 1 is better than that of Comparative Example 1, indicating that not using a dispersant will deteriorate the surface quality of the machined workpiece. This is because without a dispersant, the dispersibility of the polishing liquid becomes poor, and uneven distribution of the abrasive particles leads to the generation of pits. The test result of Example 2 is better than that of Comparative Example 3, indicating that since Comparative Example 3 does not use an alkaline pH regulator to adjust the pH to 8-10, it will also lead to a poor surface after processing.
