[0003] At present, the mainstream silver-based alloy bonding wire on the market generally contains 88.0-98.0% of silver, and uses noble metals such as gold, palladium and platinum as alloy components to form a multi-element alloy system. These alloy systems can basically meet the demand of the market for the bonding wire for LED packaging in terms of performance (especially reliability) (resisting more than 300 times of cold and hot impact cycles); however, with the change of market demand and market competition, the silver-based alloy bonding wire of the above alloy system cannot meet the market demand under the double pressure of cost and performance, and there is an urgent need for a silver-based alloy bonding wire with lower cost and higher performance on the market. SUMMARY
[0004] In order to overcome the defects of the above-mentioned silver-based alloy bonding wire and improve the comprehensive performance of the silver-based alloy bonding wire, the application provides a silver-based alloy bonding wire and a preparation method thereof.
[0005] In the first aspect, the application provides a silver-based alloy bonding wire which adopts the following technical scheme: A silver-based alloy bonding wire, the chemical element content is: 0.5wt%≤Cu≤1.1wt%, 0.006wt%≤Fe≤0.015wt%, 0.0005wt%≤In≤0.0015wt%, and the balance is Ag.

[0007] By adopting the technical scheme, silver is a good conductive and heat-conductive material, the alloy bonding wire uses silver as a base element to form an infinite solid solution, which can effectively improve the conductivity and heat-conductive performance of the bonding wire. The silver base can improve the strength and hardness of the bonding wire, so that the bonding wire has better wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The weldability of the bonding wire can also be improved, so that the bonding wire is more convenient and reliable in the manufacturing and assembling process.
[0008] When the copper content of the application is in the range of 0.5wt%-1.1wt%, the application can form a continuous solid solution with silver, reduce the grain boundary voltage, and cooperate with the preparation method of the application to improve the strength of the alloy, reduce the electrochemical corrosion, and enhance the breaking force of the alloy, which is beneficial to the subsequent stretching process of the alloy.

Within the composition range of the application, the heat treatment behavior of the silver-based alloy bonding wire can also be changed, which helps to adjust the heat treatment temperature and microstructure of the silver-based alloy bonding wire, thereby improving the performance of the alloy. The melting point and solidification behavior of the silver-based alloy bonding wire can also be changed, which helps to adjust the melting temperature and flow performance of the alloy. Moreover, the Fe element can affect the growth and morphology of the grains, thereby improving the microstructure and performance of the silver-based alloy bonding wire.
[0010] On the basis of the above alloy, the application adds 0.0005wt%≤In≤0.0015wt% of In element, which can improve the surface tension of the alloy liquid, improve the ball forming performance of the alloy during bonding, and further improve the wetting ability of the alloy on the surface of the aluminum plate, realize reliable welding between the aluminum plate and the silver-based alloy bonding wire, and also be beneficial to the anti-sulfur discoloration ability and oxidation resistance. The plastic toughness of the silver alloy is appropriately improved, and the ductility and toughness are improved.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the oxygen and other impurity gases in the container can be removed by vacuuming to avoid affecting the alloy material. Then, the argon injection can provide an inert atmosphere during the preparation process to help maintain the purity and stability of the alloy material. At the same time, by controlling the argon injection to make the pressure in the range of 0-0.2 MPa, the alloy material can be properly protected to avoid contamination by oxygen or other impurity gases, improve the microstructure of the silver-based alloy bonding wire, and thus improve the quality and stability of the alloy bonding wire.
