Currently, laser debonding is mainly applied to three-dimensional integrated structures, and the bottom layer is mainly made of materials such as photoresist and dry film; however, in the application of the cavity thin film structure at the bottom layer, due to the laser response layer being released at one time, the chemical force impacts the cavity thin film, resulting in frequent film cracking abnormalities.

[0019] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0020] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention can be more thoroughly understood and the scope of the present invention can be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0021] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in combination with the specification drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0022] Figure 1 is a schematic flow chart of a multi-layer laser debonding method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The multi-layer laser debonding method is applied to a component to be debonded having a cavity structure; as Figure 1 shown, the multi-layer laser debonding method according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0023] S101, obtaining parameter information of the component to be debonded.

[0024] It should be noted that the parameter information of the component to be debonded includes material information of the laser response layer corresponding to the component to be debonded.

[0025] S102, obtaining a parameter comparison table, and obtaining the corresponding laser energy and debonding times in the parameter comparison table according to the parameter information of the component to be debonded.

[0026] That is to say, the parameter comparison table includes a plurality of different laser response layer materials, and the laser energy and debonding times corresponding to each different laser response layer material.

[0027] As an embodiment, obtain a parameter comparison table, including: obtaining the first laser energy corresponding to the bonding part to be solved; adjusting the first laser energy, and controlling the laser beam to perform multiple repeated laser scans on the debonding area of the bonding part to be solved for different times, so as to record the probability of cracks appearing in the cavity film after multiple laser scans of different times; after performing multiple laser energy adjustments and multiple laser scans of different times, obtain the second laser energy and the debonding times corresponding to the cavity film with the lowest probability of cracks appearing in the bonding part to be solved; and so on, record the second laser energy and the debonding times corresponding to multiple different bonding parts to be solved, so as to obtain a parameter comparison table.

[0028] It should be noted that there is a preset first laser energy corresponding to the laser response layer material in each bonding part to be solved. If the first laser energy is directly sampled and a single laser scan is performed on the laser response layer, it is easy to cause chemical force to impact the cavity film, resulting in abnormal cracks. Therefore, it is necessary to set the corresponding second laser energy and debonding times according to different laser response layer materials for hierarchical laser debonding.

[0029] In addition, since the lower the laser energy, the greater the difficulty of debonding, and the corresponding number of debonding times will be more, it is necessary to balance the laser energy and the debonding times. Therefore, multiple suitable combinations of laser energy and debonding times are selected for fixed multiple tests to record their crack rates. Among them, the selected laser energy needs to be less than the first laser energy.

[0030] As one specific embodiment, assume that the first laser energy is P. First, select the second laser energy to be P - n and the debonding times to be x, perform x times of laser debonding, and record the debonding crack of 60% after repeating the test m times; then adjust the second laser energy to P - n - n and the debonding times to be x + n, perform x + n times of laser debonding, and record the debonding crack of 30% after repeating the test m times. Then, adjust the second laser energy to P - n - n - s and the debonding times to be x + n + s, perform x + n + s times of laser debonding, and record the debonding crack of 0% after repeating the test m times. Then, take the second laser energy of P - n - n - s and the debonding times of x + n + s as the final optimal result and record it in the parameter comparison table; and so on. After multiple groups of selections and multiple tests, the optimal second laser energy and debonding times are obtained.

[0031] In addition, as Figures 2-3As shown, the bonding part to be released 100 includes a first layer structure 10 and a second layer structure bonded by a bonding layer. The bonding part to be released is placed on a laser debonding machine 200. The bonding layer includes a laser-responsive layer 201 and a temporary bonding adhesive layer 202. The laser-responsive layer 201 is disposed on the temporary bonding adhesive layer 202. The second layer structure is a cavity structure. The second layer structure is in contact with the laser debonding machine and has a thin film layer 301.

[0032] That is to say, when performing debonding, the bonding part to be released 100 needs to be placed on the laser debonding machine 200 first, and the second layer structure is in contact with the laser debonding machine 200. Among them, the first layer structure 10 is glass, and the thickness of the thin film layer 301 is 200 - 2000 nm.

[0033] S103, determine the debonding area of the bonding part to be released.

[0034] It should be noted that as Figure 3 shown, the laser debonding machine is equipped with an optical ranging system 40 and an automatic focusing laser system 50 to automatically complete distance measurement and focusing on a fixed point, so as to achieve ranging and focusing at the 0.1 um level.

[0035] As an embodiment, determining the debonding area of the bonding part to be released includes: measuring the distance from the lens to the surface of the first layer structure by using the optical ranging system on the laser debonding machine; determining the position of the laser-responsive layer according to the distance from the lens to the surface of the first layer structure; controlling the automatic focusing laser on the laser debonding machine to automatically adjust the focal position of the laser beam according to the position of the laser-responsive layer so as to focus on the laser-responsive layer.

[0036] As a specific embodiment, the laser debonding machine is equipped with an automatic focusing system, which usually includes adjustable optical elements (such as variable focal length lenses) and a driving motor; after determining the position of the laser-responsive layer, the control system sends an instruction to the automatic focusing system, and the driving motor adjusts the variable focal length lens to make the laser focus accurately align with the laser-responsive layer. The focusing system ensures the accuracy of the focal position through a feedback mechanism (such as a position sensor).

[0037] Specifically, measuring the distance from the lens to the surface of the first layer by using the optical ranging system on the laser debonding machine includes: the optical ranging system emits a beam of laser to the surface of the first layer structure; the laser is reflected back to the optical ranging system to obtain the distance from the lens to the surface of the first layer structure by measuring the propagation time or phase change of the reflected light.

[0038] It should be noted that using a high-precision optical ranging system, such as a laser rangefinder or a confocal ranging system, to measure the distance from the lens to the glass surface can usually achieve an accuracy of 0.1 micron or even higher.

[0039] Specifically, determining the position of the laser response layer according to the distance from the lens to the surface of the first-layer structure includes: obtaining the thickness of the first-layer structure; obtaining the position of the laser response layer based on the distance from the lens to the surface of the first-layer structure and the thickness of the first-layer structure.

[0040] It should be noted that since the laser response layer is arranged below the first-layer structure, it is only necessary to know the distance from the lens to the surface of the first-layer structure and the thickness of the first-layer structure to know the distance from the lens to the laser response layer, so as to accurately locate the position of the laser response layer.

[0041] S104, controlling the laser beam to perform multi-layer scanning on the debonding region according to the corresponding laser energy and the number of debonding times to release the bond.

[0042] That is to say, after obtaining the corresponding laser energy and the number of debonding times, control the laser system to generate a laser beam with the corresponding laser energy, and perform multi-layer scanning on the debonding region according to the number of debonding times, so that the laser response layer is heated to undergo a phase change decomposition, and the bonding between the bonding layer and the first-layer structure and the second-layer structure is released; after the laser scans the laser response layer region, a pulling force can also be applied to the first-layer structure and the second-layer structure to separate the two layer structures.

[0043] In summary, according to the multi-layer laser debonding method of the embodiments of the present invention, first, obtain the parameter information of the component to be debonded; then, obtain the parameter comparison table, and obtain the corresponding laser energy and the number of debonding times in the parameter comparison table according to the parameter information of the component to be debonded; next, determine the debonding region of the component to be debonded; finally, control the laser beam to perform multi-layer scanning on the debonding region according to the corresponding laser energy and the number of debonding times to release the bond; thus, obtain the preset corresponding laser energy and the number of debonding times according to the parameter information of the component to be debonded, and perform scanning of the number of debonding times on the debonding region by controlling the laser beam with this laser energy to release the bond, thereby greatly improving the crack rate of the cavity thin film structure.
