Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of high-frequency communication materials technology, specifically to a Low-α ray spherical alumina / liquid crystal polymer 5G base station substrate material. Background Technology
[0002] As 5G communication upgrades to millimeter-wave bands (28 / 39GHz), base station substrates must simultaneously meet several core requirements: in the 28GHz band, the dielectric loss factor (tanδ) must be ≤0.0005 to reduce signal transmission attenuation; the thermal conductivity must be ≥3W / mK to solve the problem of local overheating caused by high-density chip packaging; the alpha ray shielding rate must be ≥99.9% to avoid high-energy alpha particles causing "soft errors" in the chip; and the dielectric loss change (Δtanδ) after 1000 hours of humid heat aging at 85℃ / 85%RH must be ≤+0.5% to adapt to outdoor base station environments.
[0003] Currently, among 5G base station substrate materials, ceramic-based materials (such as Al2O3 and AlN) have high thermal conductivity (AlN thermal conductivity ≥150W / mK) and excellent alpha-ray shielding performance (Al2O3 shielding rate ≥99.5%); however, they have high dielectric loss (tanδ@28GHz ≥0.0008), are brittle, and have high processing costs, making them difficult to adapt to flexible packaging. Low-alpha ray spherical alumina, based on ordinary ceramic-based materials, has advantages such as low alpha particle content, excellent insulation, adjustable particle size distribution, high sphericity, and low magnetic foreign matter content, but U / Th <5ppb needs to be controlled; however, radioactive element removal processes (such as acid washing) lead to a 40% decrease in surface hydroxyl density and a 30% weakening of interfacial bonding energy, increasing the risk of substrate delamination after damp heat aging and causing dielectric stability degradation Δtanδ >15%. In addition, the traditional spherical alumina particle size is not coupled with the 5G millimeter-wave wavelength, resulting in multiple reflections of electromagnetic waves at the filler interface and an insertion loss of -0.5dB / cm.
[0004] Polymer-based composite materials (such as liquid crystal polymers (LCP), glass fibers, etc.) have low intrinsic dielectric loss (tanδ@28GHz ≤ 0.0004 for LCP), but the addition of high thermal conductivity fillers (such as spherical Al2O3) can easily lead to interfacial polarization problems. When the filler content is ≥35wt%, the interfacial polarization causes the dielectric loss to increase sharply to tanδ≥0.0006, while the thermal conductivity can only reach 1.2~2.0W / mK, which cannot meet the high thermal conductivity requirements. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a Low-α ray spherical alumina / liquid crystal polymer 5G base station substrate material.
[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a Low-α ray spherical alumina / liquid crystal polymer 5G base station substrate, comprising the following components based on a total substrate material mass of 100 wt%:
[0007] A 42-50 wt% liquid crystal copolymer matrix comprising the following molar percentages of carboxylic acid monomers copolymerized: 60-68 mol% p-hydroxybenzoic acid, 20-24 mol% 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid), and 12-16 mol% 4-(5-amino-6-hydroxy-2-benzoxazole)-benzoic acid; wherein the 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) is pre-complexed with a cerium-containing compound before copolymerization;
[0008] 35-40 wt% Ce 3+ Doped spherical alumina filler, its surface is sequentially coated with: Bi2Te 3-x Se x A topological insulating layer and a phosphate ester silane graft layer, wherein x = 0.12 to 0.18;
[0009] 3-5 wt% bismaleimide, 2-4 wt% UV absorber and 5-9 wt% plasticizer.
[0010] It should be noted that 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (pKa = 5.12) has a relatively low carboxyl group activity due to the electron-withdrawing effect of the nitro group; if the three monomers are directly copolymerized, local homopolymerization with preferential self-polymerization of p-hydroxybenzoic acid is likely to occur. After pre-complexation with cerium-containing compounds, the carboxyl group activity of 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) can be increased by 30%–40%, and its reactivity tends to be consistent with that of the other two monomers, ensuring uniform monomer reaction in the copolymerization system. Furthermore, Ce... 3+ The electronegativity of the carboxyl carbon is enhanced through coordination bonds, which significantly improves its reactivity with the hydroxyl groups in p-hydroxybenzoic acid and 4-(5-amino-6-hydroxy-2-benzoxazole)-benzoic acid, and reduces the activation energy of the esterification reaction.
[0011] Furthermore, the ultraviolet absorber is a hindered amine stabilizer, and the plasticizer is triethyl citrate;
[0012] The substrate material has an alpha-ray shielding rate of ≥99.95%, a thermal conductivity of ≥3.35 W / mK, a dielectric loss factor tanδ <0.00014 at 28 GHz, and Δtanδ ≤ +0.3% after 1000 h of humid heat aging at 85℃ / 85%RH.
[0013] Furthermore, the substrate material is prepared by a method comprising:
[0014] (1) Preparation of liquid crystal copolymer: 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) and cerium-containing compound according to carboxyl group: Ce3+ After pre-complexing at 50–65 °C for 2–3 h with a molar ratio of 1:1.2, it is then mixed with 4-(5-amino-6-hydroxy-2-benzoxazole)-benzoic acid and p-hydroxybenzoic acid; under a N2 atmosphere, at 385–405 nm and 30–40 mW / cm 2 Under LED light source irradiation, the mixture was heated in stages and polycondensed for 100–150 min to obtain a liquid crystal copolymer with a number-average molecular weight Mn ≥ 3.5 × 10⁻⁶. 4 g / mol, PDI≤1.6;
[0015] (2)Ce 3+ Preparation of doped spherical alumina filler: Using cerium nitrate-aluminum nitrate as a precursor, co-precipitation was carried out in an ammonia-ammonium carbonate mixture at pH 10.0 ± 0.2, followed by spray drying, freeze drying, and plasma-activated sintering to obtain Ce-doped alumina filler with γ-Al₂O₃ crystal phase. 3+ Doped spherical alumina; the Ce 3+ The doping amount is 1.5–2.8 mol%, based on the total moles of Al2O3;
[0016] (3) Double-layer coating modification of the filler: On the surface of the filler obtained in step (2), using bismuth-containing compounds, tellurium-containing compounds and selenium-containing compounds as precursors, atomic layer deposition is performed 200-250 times at 140-150℃ to grow Bi2Te. 3-x Se x A topological insulating layer was formed; then annealed at 300℃ in a N2 / Se = 95:5 mixture for 30–60 min, followed by rapid cooling with an inert gas; finally, grafting was performed using a phosphate ester silane coupling agent to obtain a double-layer coated Ce. 3+ Doped spherical alumina;
[0017] (4) Casting: The liquid crystal copolymer from step (1) and the double-layer coated Ce from step (3) are cast together. 3+ Doped spherical alumina filler and bismaleimide are sheared and mixed, and ultraviolet absorbers and plasticizers are added simultaneously to obtain a composite melt; it is then cast and molded at 280-290°C; it is then cooled in sections to 80°C and annealed at 120-140°C for 2-4 hours to obtain the substrate material.
[0018] Further, in step (1), the staged heating parameters are: 180℃ for 30-40 min, 220℃ for 60-90 min, and 240℃ for 30-50 min; tetrabutyl titanate catalyst and lithium borate are also added to the copolymerization system; the amount of tetrabutyl titanate is 0.06-0.09 wt%, and the amount of lithium borate is 0.1-0.2 wt%, both based on the total mass of the system.
[0019] It should be noted that in the above copolymerization process, the nitro group contained in 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) is generated by photo-induced free radicals under 385-405nm LED ultraviolet irradiation, which activates the carboxyl group and reduces the activation energy of the esterification reaction.
[0020] A. Photoinduced nitro radical generation: The energy of 385–405 nm ultraviolet light (3.22–3.48 eV) matches the n→π* transition energy (3.0–3.5 eV) of the nitro (-NO2) group, exciting the lone pair electrons of the nitro oxygen atom to transition to the antibonding orbital, weakening and breaking the C-NO2 bond, generating a ·NO2 radical. Furthermore, in the pre-complexation step, Ce... 3+ Ce-O-carboxyl complexes formed with carboxyl groups can stabilize NO2 free radicals;
[0021] B. Activating the carboxyl group and promoting ester bond formation: The highly oxidizing NO2 free radical can attack the hydroxyl (-OH) and carboxyl (-COOH) groups of p-hydroxybenzoic acid or 4-(5-amino-6-hydroxy-2-benzoxazole)-benzoic acid, abstracting H atoms to generate hydroxyl radicals (·OH) or acyl radicals (·COO). - This reduces the activation energy of the esterification reaction between carboxyl and hydroxyl groups, allowing polycondensation to occur without high temperatures.
[0022] Furthermore, the pre-complexed Ce-O-carboxyl chelate is formed via Ce 3+ The 4f electron cloud can couple with the π antibonding orbital of the nitro group, lowering the n→π transition energy barrier. Under LED light source irradiation at wavelengths of 385–405 nm, the nitro group is more easily broken to form ·NO2, and Ce... 3+ Through electron transfer (Ce 3+ →·NO2→Ce 4+ Stabilize free radicals and prevent them from prematurely quenching.
[0023] Further, in step (2), the inlet temperature of the spray drying is 200±10℃, and the freeze-drying temperature is -60~-50℃; the plasma activation sintering process is specifically as follows:
[0024] The freeze-dried particles were activated for 60–90 seconds using a magnetic rotating arc plasma torch with a power of 50–150 kW in a 95:5 Ar / H2 mixed atmosphere. They were then heated to 1050–1100 °C at a rate of 80–100 °C, and the axial pressure was applied in stages to 40–60 MPa for 6–10 min. The particles were then rapidly cooled with liquid nitrogen to a sintered body temperature of ≤200 °C. Finally, they were annealed at 800 °C in an N2 atmosphere for 30–40 min. The pulse activation mode was 60 ms on and 30 ms off.
[0025] In the above sintering process, the particle surface is activated by the instantaneous high temperature of plasma; rapid sintering can suppress the γ→α diffusion phase transformation. The rapid quenching step can avoid the γ→α phase transformation and Ce phase decay that occur in the 800–1000℃ range during slow cooling. 3+ The issue of migration. An annealing temperature of 800℃ is below the γ→α phase transformation threshold but above the recrystallization temperature (approximately 600℃), effectively releasing lattice distortion stress caused by rapid cooling and preventing substrate warping; the N2 atmosphere can prevent Ce... 3+ Oxidized to Ce 4+ .
[0026] Further, in step (3), the bismuth-containing compound is tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptadecyl)bismuth(III), the tellurium-containing compound is bis(trimethylsilyl)tellurium, and the selenium-containing compound is di-tert-butylselenium; the atomic layer deposition is controlled by pulse feedback, and its parameters are:
[0027] Bismuth(III) tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptadecane) pulsation for 0.20–0.30 s, followed by Ar purging with varying flow rate for 10 s;
[0028] Bis(trimethylsilyl)tellurium pulse 0.55–0.72 s, variable flow Ar purge 10 s;
[0029] Di-tert-butylselenide pulse for 0.30–0.45 s, followed by variable flow Ar purging for 10 s;
[0030] The Se:Te molar ratio is (6-9):(44-41).
[0031] The core of atomic layer deposition (ALD) is the self-limiting chemical reaction of the precursor on the substrate surface. Within each precursor pulse cycle, deposition ceases once the reactants reach surface saturation adsorption. The deposition rates of Se and Te are positively correlated with the pulse time (a saturation threshold exists). This scheme precisely controls the relative ratio of Se and Te by controlling the pulse time of the precursors bis(trimethylsilyl)tellurium and di-tert-butylselenium, and directly controls the Se / Te atomic ratio.
[0032] Further: In step (3), the grafting process is as follows: γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and tris(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)phosphite with a mass ratio of 1:1 to 2 are pre-hydrolyzed at pH=4.5 for 30 to 40 min; the filler is dispersed in it at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:10 to 15, and the temperature is raised to 60 to 85°C and refluxed for 6 to 8 h.
[0033] Further: In step (4), the melt flow rate of the casting process is 5±0.2g / 10min, the cooling rate of the segmented cooling process is 15~25℃ / min, and the heating rate of the annealing process is 5℃ / min.
[0034] In this invention, the double-layered Ce 3+ Bi2Te in doped spherical alumina 3-x Se x The topological insulating layer achieves low-dissipation electron transport through spin-momentum locking via a Dirac cone band structure. When coupled to a γ-Al₂O₃ substrate, the breaking of z-axis symmetry activates Raman forbidden modes, optimizing surface state stability. Quantum confinement (thickness 8–10 nm) suppresses bulk phonon scattering, reducing dielectric loss. Se doping compensates for Te vacancies (n-type defects) in Bi₂Te₃, reducing bulk carrier concentration and shifting the Fermi level toward the Dirac point. However, increasing x suppresses Te vacancies, further reducing bulk carrier concentration and bringing the Fermi level closer to the Dirac point. Furthermore, due to the lattice constant of Bi₂Te₃... ) and Bi2Se3 The mismatch reaches 6.4%, and increasing x will exacerbate the mismatch with γ-Al2O3 (lattice constant ~). The mismatch of ) . Therefore, the x value directly affects Bi2Te 3-x Se x Interfacial stress between the topological insulating layer and the alumina filler, and the performance of the substrate.
[0035] The harm caused by alpha rays stems from the "soft errors" in chips triggered when high-energy particles penetrate the substrate. This invention reduces alpha ray levels primarily through a three-pronged approach: reducing alpha ray source release, absorbing particle energy, and scattering particle motion paths.
[0036] (1) Ce doping 3+ This generates alpha particle "energy traps" and inhibits the release of radioactive impurities: the alpha rays in spherical alumina mainly originate from U and Th impurities in the raw materials. 3+ Ionic radius Greater than Al 3+ Replace Al 3+ Later, "vacancy-Ce" forms in the γ-Al₂O₃ lattice. 3+ "The defect pair, whose energy level (0.8–1.2 eV) matches the energy quantization level of the alpha particle, can absorb the kinetic energy of the alpha particle through transitions; in addition, Ce..." 3+ The 4f orbital can interact with U 6+ ,Th 4+ They form stable coordination compounds (Ce-UO, Ce-Th-O) to prevent impurity atoms from migrating with the humid and hot environment.
[0037] (2)Bi2Te 3-x Se x Insulating topological layers, surface state scattering, and energy dissipation in layered structures:
[0038] Topological surface state scattering of alpha particles: The Dirac cone surface states of the topological insulating layer have delocalized π electron clouds. Alpha particles interact with the π electron clouds through Coulomb repulsion, causing the particle's trajectory to be deflected / scattered.
[0039] Layered structures increase kinetic energy dissipation: Bi2Te 3-x Se x It has a hexagonal layered structure, and the coating thickness of 8-10 nm forms multiple scattering interfaces, which can guide the directional transport of phonons along the interlayer. As alpha particles penetrate the multiple topological layers to reach the resin matrix, scattering occurs, increasing the total path length and improving the kinetic energy dissipation rate.
[0040] (3) Phosphate silane coating, dense interface to block radiation source and particle transmission: sealing radioactive sites on the filler surface: phosphate groups-filler hydroxyl coordination bonds + amino-resin carboxyl covalent bonds form a dense coating layer, sealing the micropores of U and Th impurity radiation sites on the surface of spherical alumina, thus preventing the release of α rays; preventing Coulomb interaction to aid energy dissipation: negatively charged phosphate groups can interact with α particles (+2e) through long-range Coulomb attraction, further slowing down the particle's movement speed; at the same time, the Si-O bonds and CN bonds in the coating layer can absorb the energy of α particles through bond vibration, preventing energy transfer to the chip.
[0041] Beneficial effects:
[0042] The Low-α ray spherical alumina / liquid crystal polymer 5G base station substrate material provided by this invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0043] I. Ultra-low dielectric loss: The copolymer contains a rigid planar structure of benzoxazole, which enhances the molecular chain stacking density. The strong electron-withdrawing property of the oxazole epoxy atom effectively suppresses dipole polarization; combined with Bi2Te 3-x Se x The quantum confinement effect of the topological insulating layer results in a dielectric loss factor (tanδ) of <0.00014 for the substrate material in the 28GHz millimeter-wave band, which can significantly reduce the attenuation of high-frequency signal transmission and meet the high-speed data transmission requirements of 5G base stations.
[0044] II. High thermal conductivity and efficient alpha-ray shielding:
[0045] High thermal conductivity: Bi2Te 3-x Se x The Dirac cone band structure of the topological insulating layer has the characteristics of bulk insulation and surface conductivity, which can realize the scatter-free transmission of electrons. Its layered crystal structure can guide the directional transmission of phonons along the interlayer, reducing the disordered scattering of phonons. The rigid stacking of benzoxazole units further reduces phonon scattering, which further improves the thermal conductivity of the substrate, so as to realize the rapid heat conduction of 5G base station chips and avoid local overheating leading to performance degradation.
[0046] High-efficiency alpha ray shielding: Ce 3+ Doping can act as an electron trap to capture alpha particles; Bi2Te 3-x Se x The topological insulating layer extends the energy dissipation path through multiple scatterings; the phosphate coating blocks the source, reduces the release of alpha rays and assists in energy dissipation, making the alpha ray shielding rate exceed 99.95%, effectively reducing the risk of chip "soft errors" caused by alpha particles.
[0047] III. Environmental stability:
[0048] Stability during humid and hot aging: The phosphate ester silane grafted layer forms a dense interface through the coordination bond between the phosphate group and the filler hydroxyl group and the covalent bond between the amino group and the resin carboxyl group, which inhibits the penetration of moisture under humid and hot conditions and avoids delamination failure caused by interface hydrolysis.
[0049] UV aging stability: Bi2Te 3-x Se x The topological insulating layer can absorb ultraviolet light from 200 to 400 nm. Combined with hindered amine ultraviolet absorbers, it effectively inhibits the ultraviolet degradation of molecular chains. After ultraviolet aging, the yellowness index ΔE of the substrate is much lower than that without Bi2Te. 3-x Se x The substrate with topological insulation layer covering filler extends the service life of the substrate in outdoor base station environments.
[0050] IV. Strong interfacial bonding and excellent mechanical properties
[0051] Phosphate silane graft layer eliminates Ce 3+ The polarity difference between doped spherical alumina and liquid crystal copolymers, Ce 3+ Doping significantly improves the substrate peel strength, meeting the reliable connection requirements of 5G base station substrates with chips and metal wiring; it can be mass-produced through tape casting and is compatible with high-density packaging process requirements.

[0080] Example 1
[0081] (1) Synthesis of liquid crystal copolymers:
[0082] Pre-complexation: 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (22 mmol) and cerium nitrate (26.4 mmol) were dissolved in DMF / ethanol (v:v = 3:2) under ultrasonic-assisted stirring (300 W) to obtain a solution with a solid content of 20 wt%. The solution was then cooled to 50 °C and pre-complexed at 500 rpm for 3 h. After cooling to room temperature, the solution was filtered to obtain a pale yellow complex. The complex was transferred to a polymerization reactor, and 4-(5-amino-6-hydroxy-2-benzoxazole)-benzoic acid (14 mmol) and p-hydroxybenzoic acid (64 mmol) were added. The mixture was then mixed with anhydrous N-methylpyrrolidone (100 mL).
[0083] After introducing N2 into the polymerization reactor and purging it three times, the reactor was sealed. While stirring, the temperature was raised to 120°C and dehydrated under reduced pressure for 1 hour. Then, 0.08 wt% tetrabutyl titanate and 0.12 wt% lithium borate were added. The temperature was raised to 250°C, the pressure reduced to 0.1 MPa, and the reactor was stirred at 200 rpm. An external LED light source (385 nm, 35 mW / cm²) was installed. 2 The temperature was gradually increased, and the mixture was held successively at 180℃ for 30 min, 220℃ for 60 min, and 240℃ for 30 min (total polycondensation time was 120 min). Acetic anhydride was then added for end-capping. After the reaction was completed, excess acetic anhydride was removed by vacuum distillation at 200℃ and 0.09 MPa for 30 min. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, and the crude product was dissolved in chloroform (10% w / v). The insoluble matter was removed by filtration, and the filtrate was added dropwise to 10 times its volume of methanol to precipitate the product. The precipitate was washed with methanol (50 mL × 3), dried under vacuum at 120℃ for 24 h, and pulverized through a 100-mesh sieve to obtain a yellow liquid crystal copolymer powder with a yield of 78%.
[0084] The molecular weight of the liquid crystal copolymer was determined using a Waters 1515 gel permeation chromatography system (GPC, equipped with a Styragel HR4 / HR5 column).

[0088] Phosphate ester silane coupling agent coating: γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and tris(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)phosphite were mixed in ethanol / water (v:v = 95:5) at a mass ratio of 1:1.5 and pre-hydrolyzed at pH = 4.5 for 30 min; then Bi2Te 2.85 Se 0.15 Encased Ce 3+ Doped spherical alumina filler was dispersed in the solution at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:10-15, and the solution was heated to 80℃ and stirred for 6.5 h. After centrifugation and washing, the solution was vacuum dried at 60℃ to obtain a double-layer coated Ce. 3+ Doped spherical alumina filler.
[0089] (4) The liquid crystal copolymer (45 wt%) from step (1) and the filler (40 wt%) obtained in step (3) were added to a twin-screw extruder. 5 wt% bismaleimide, 3 wt% Tinuvin 770 and 7 wt% triethyl citrate were added, and the mixture was melt-sheared and mixed at 285°C and 300 rpm to obtain a melt. The melt was then poured into a casting die.

[0108] I. Structural characterization of the packing material:
[0109] (1) X-ray diffraction (XRD): XRD was used to analyze Ce in the preparation of Example 1. 3+ Doped spherical alumina fillers and the double-layer coated Ce in Examples 1, 4-5, and Comparative Examples 3-4 3+ XRD characterization of doped spherical alumina fillers was performed. The testing equipment was a FRINGECLASS desktop X-ray diffractometer (Nanjing Aocong Electronics Co., Ltd.), with Cu Kα radiation (λ = 0.15406 nm), tube voltage 40 kV, tube current 40 mA, and a scan rate of 2° / min. The step size was 0.02°. Grain size was calculated using the Scherrer equation (β = Kλ / (Dcosθ), K = 0.89, β is the full width at half maximum (FWHM), and θ is the diffraction angle). Results are shown below. Figure 1 The standard cards are labeled below the image (γ-Al2O3: PDF#00-010-0425, Bi2Se3: PDF#01-089-2008 and Bi2Te3: PDF#00-015-0803).
[0110] Figure 2 In the preparation of Ce in Example 1 3+ The doped spherical alumina is clearly a γ-Al2O3 phase: characteristic peaks include (111), (311), (400), and (440), with 37.6° (311) being the main peak. Ce 3+ Doping caused the 45.8° (400) peak to shift to the right (refer to the γ-Al2O3 standard card PDF#00-010-0425).
[0111] Example 1 shows Bi2Te 3-x Se x The characteristic peaks of the 17.7° (006) and 27.5° (015) crystal planes confirm that Bi2Te 2.85 Se 0.15 It has a hexagonal layered structure. The (006) crystal plane has a half-width at half-maximum of 1.8° and a grain size of 4.2 nm; the (015) crystal plane has a half-width at half-maximum of 0.32° and a grain size of 4.5 nm. Se doping causes the (015) peak to shift to the left (refer to Bi2Te3 standard card PDF#00-015-0803).
[0112] In Example 4, due to the decrease in Se content, the (006) crystal plane peak shifted to the left and the (015) crystal plane peak shifted to the right. In Example 5, the Se content was higher, the lattice mismatch increased, and the intensity of the (015) peak decreased by 10%; and because the atomic radius of Se (≈117 pm) is smaller than that of Te (≈142 pm), a selenium-rich region is easily formed when high Se doping occurs: therefore, a 32.5° selenium-rich phase peak appears (refer to Bi2Se3 standard card PDF#01-089-2008, 32.6° (101) crystal plane), but the intensity of this selenium-rich phase peak is ≤5%, which does not affect Bi2Te. 3-x Se x The main structure of the topological insulating layer. Further increasing the Se content leads to a further increase in lattice distortion, far exceeding that of Bi2Te. 3-x Se x The solid solution limit and severe phase separation lead to selenium atom segregation and the formation of Bi2Se3 nanophase, indicating that x = 0.18 is the upper limit.
[0113] Comparative Example 3 without Bi2Te 3-x Se x The characteristic peak, a sharp peak at 37.6° (311), indicates a grain size of 50 nm. Comparative Example 4 (Ce-free) 3+ The characteristic peak at 37.6° (311) shifts to the left (larger lattice) and the phase intensity at 45.8° (400) increases, indicating higher crystallinity.
[0114] (2) X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF): Characterization was performed using high-resolution XRF (Thermo Scientific ARLQuant's XED XRF spectrometer). Excitation source: Rh target X-ray tube (40kV / 50mA), detector: Si-PIN detector (resolution 145eV@MnKα). Testing was conducted in an atmospheric environment, with major element testing for 300s and trace element testing for 600s, ensuring a SeKα count rate >3000cps. Compton scattering internal standard method (I0.05) was used. Te Lα / I 总 To eliminate the influence of sample thickness, the atomic ratio was calculated using the fundamental parameter method (FP). Furthermore, the interference of Bi Mβ (9.8 keV) on Te Lβ needed to be corrected, with a correction factor k = 0.087 (correction formula is...). Table 2 and... Figure 2 The results are shown.
[0115] Table 2
[0116] Example Se doping level (x) Te / Bi atomic ratio TeLα / BiLα intensity ratio SeKα / BiLα intensity ratio 1 0.15 1.425 1.43±0.03 0.15±0.02 4 0.12 1.44 1.45±0.03 0.12±0.02 5 0.18 1.41 1.41±0.03 0.18±0.02
[0117] Figure 2 In Examples 1, 4, and 5, characteristic spectral lines of Bi Lα (10.84 keV), Te Lα (4.51 keV), and Se Kα (11.22 keV) were observed. In Example 1, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the Te Lα peak was 0.22 keV, and the Te Lα / Bi Lα intensity ratio was 1.43. In Example 4, the FWHM of the Te Lα peak was 0.21 keV, which was sharper than that of Example 1, with a slightly higher Te / Bi intensity ratio and a decreased intensity of the Se Kα characteristic peak. In Example 5, the intensity of the Te spectral line was lower than that of Example 1, the Te / Bi ratio decreased to 1.41, while the Se peak intensity increased. Table 2 also shows that the Te / Bi ratio decreased with increasing Se doping concentration.
[0118] (3) Topological Surface State (TSS) Analysis:
[0119] The topological surface states in the fillers of Examples 1, 4, and 5 were further verified using angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES, Scienta Omicron, Shanghai Microway Semiconductor Technology Co., Ltd.). Plotting momentum kx (π / a) on the horizontal axis and energy (eV) on the vertical axis yielded... Figure 3 Two-dimensional dispersion maps of angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy for Examples 1, 4-5 and Comparative Example 3 are shown. Figure 3In the diagram, a black / white dashed line marks the location where the Fermi level (EF) is 0 eV: this is the absolute reference for ARPES analysis, used to determine the occupancy of electronic states (below which are occupied states, above which are unoccupied states); light and dark colors (blue-yellow-red) are used to visually represent the intensity of the photoelectric emission signal, i.e., the electronic state density in momentum space. A red pentagram clearly marks the vertex of the Dirac cone (i.e., the Dirac point).
[0120] In Bi2Te 3-x Se x In this system, the introduction of Se gradually pushes the Fermi level from the valence band peak (p-type) of Bi₂Te₃ towards the center of the band gap of Bi₂Se₃. Dirac cone linear dispersion was observed in Examples 1, 4, and 5, proving that Bi₂Te₃… 3-x Se x Successful encapsulation of the topological insulating layer. Its upward-opening "V" or "U" shaped dispersion band is a hallmark feature of the topological surface states.
[0121] Example 1 shows a clear Dirac cone dispersion, exhibiting a single, gapless topological surface state with a bulk band gap of ~0.15 eV; the Dirac point is located ~300 meV below the valence band apex. This confirms that appropriate Se doping achieves optimal bulk insulation, maximally suppressing bulk carrier interference on the signal.
[0122] In Example 4, due to insufficient Se (x = 0.12), a strong bulk electron signal appeared near the Fermi level (EF); surface states and bulk states were mixed. This indicates that even with low Se doping, the bulk phase still exhibits n-type semiconductor characteristics. The Fermi level penetrates the conduction band, and a large number of free bulk electrons annihilate the relatively weak topological surface state signal, resulting in insufficient clarity of the Dirac cone. In Example 5, the Dirac cone is clear, but the Dirac point is deeply embedded in the valence band (>400 meV), with no surface state channel at the Fermi level, leading to an increased bulk band gap. This indicates that although a large number of Se-doped topological surface states exist, they cause the Fermi level to be significantly pinned in the valence band, and its Dirac point is far from the Fermi level, failing to provide an effective electron transport channel. Therefore, the amount of Se doping (x) must be strictly controlled within the solid solution limit. If it is excessive (x > 0.18), it will cause the separation of the selenium-rich phase, resulting in lattice distortion and increased carrier scattering. The Dirac point is trapped in the valence band (EF ~ 0.5 eV), and surface state electrons need to overcome the energy barrier to participate in the transport, which leads to a decrease in mobility.
[0123] Comparative Example 3 without Bi2Te 3-x Se xTopological insulating layer coating, in essence, is a wide-bandgap insulator ceramic, lacking the crystal structure and symmetry of topological insulators, and therefore completely lacks topologically protected surface states. Consequently, its spectrum exhibits a featureless diffuse background or impurity states, without a Dirac cone dispersion relation; and while impurity states exist, they lack a band gap and manifest as metallic or defect states.
[0124] The above three characterization results indicate that x = 0.15 is the optimal solution.
[0125] II. Compositional analysis of liquid crystal copolymers / homomers:
[0126] Infrared spectroscopy was performed on the liquid crystal copolymers in Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, as well as the liquid crystal homopolymer of Comparative Example 1.

[0128] 3. Performance characterization of substrate materials
[0129] The following tests were performed on all embodiments and comparative examples, and the results are summarized in Table 3.
[0130] The dielectric loss factor tanδ@28GHz was measured according to IEC 61189-2 at 28GHz and 23±0.5℃.
[0131] Thermal conductivity was tested using the laser flare method (ASTM E1461) with a Netzsch LFA467 HyperFlash laser flare meter: pulsed laser energy 10J, detection delay 10μs; at 25℃ in an N2 atmosphere.
[0132] Peel strength was tested according to ASTM D3167 using an INSTRON 5967 universal testing machine (5kN load cell). The ambient temperature was 23℃ and the humidity was 50%. The sample was a Type 1BA dumbbell type (150mm long, 25mm gauge length, 10mm width), with a tensile rate of 10mm / min. The test was repeated 5 times, and the average value was taken.
[0133] Alpha-ray shielding efficiency was measured according to ISO 18589-6:2020. The measurement was performed using an ORTEC alpha spectrometer (equipped with a PIPS detector, resolution 18 keV @ 5.486 MeV). The radiation source was... 241 Am (activity 100 kBq, energy 5.486 MeV), sample fixed between source and detector (distance 2 cm); background count was measured first for 30 min, then sample count for 3600 s. Alpha ray shielding efficiency = (1 - sample count / background count) × 100%
[0134] Carrier mobility was measured using a TeraView TPS Spectra 3000 terahertz time-domain spectrometer (THz-TDS). Test conditions: THz pulse frequency 0.3–3 THz, N2 atmosphere (humidity <5%), sample thickness 0.3 mm.
[0135] The UV aging yellowness index ΔE was determined by first aging the samples in a Q-Lab QUV / se UV aging chamber (using a UVB-313 lamp with an irradiance of 0.71 W / m²). 2 The sample was aged at 340nm for 1000 hours at 60℃; after vacuum drying at 60℃ for 2 hours, it was tested with a KonicaMinolta CM-700d colorimeter, and the average value of 5 measuring points was taken.

[0138]
[0139] The 5G base station substrate material provided by this invention is based on liquid crystal copolymer-Ce 3+ The synergistic effect of doped filler and double-layer coating achieves a performance balance of ultra-low dielectric loss (tanδ < 0.00014), high thermal conductivity (≥ 3.35 W / mK), high alpha-ray shielding (≥ 99.95%), and high reliability (Δtanδ ≤ +0.3%). The rigid and electron-withdrawing 4-(5-amino-6-hydroxy-2-benzoxazole)-benzoic acid monomer in the liquid crystal copolymer matrix helps reduce tanδ and improve thermal conductivity; the synergistic effect of the phosphate-filler hydroxyl coordination bonds and the amino-resin carboxyl covalent bonds in the phosphate ester silane graft layer strengthens the interfacial bonding force, preventing moisture penetration in humid and hot environments.
[0140] The liquid crystal homopolymer / polymer raw materials of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 lacked 4-(5-amino-6-hydroxy-2-benzoxazole)-benzoic acid units, resulting in high molecular chain disorder and intensified dipole polarization. Their tanδ values were 3.6 times and 3.5 times that of Example 1, respectively, and their thermal conductivity decreased to 1.20–2.80 W / mK.
[0141] Comparative Example 3 lacks Bi2Te 3-x Se x The dielectric modulation of the topological insulating layer enhances the polarization of the filler-resin interface, with tanδ being 2.14 times that of Example 1; the electronic thermal conductivity channel is lost, and the thermal conductivity drops to 3.10 W / mK; there is no ultraviolet absorption function, and ΔE increases to 8.0.
[0142] Ce doping 3+ It can generate lattice defects, enhancing Bi2Te 3-x Se x Adhesion of the topological insulating layer coating; Comparative Example 4 lacking Ce 3+ Therefore, the peel strength is the lowest, the double coating layer is easy to fall off, which leads to increased interfacial polarization, a significant increase in tanδ, and a sharp drop in α-ray shielding efficiency.
[0143] In summary, the substrate material provided by this invention, through the synergistic design of liquid crystal copolymer matrix, doped filler, and double-layer coating, can meet the core requirements of 5G millimeter-wave base station substrates for ultra-low dielectric loss, high thermal conductivity, and high reliability.

They should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
