Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of semiconductor packaging technology, and more specifically, to a DAF film with adjustable modulus dicing substrate, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] In advanced semiconductor packaging, DAF (die bonding film) serves as the core adhesive material between the chip and the substrate / wafer. Its dicing substrate (also known as dicing tape substrate) plays a crucial role in supporting the chip during dicing, protecting it from mechanical damage, and assisting in chip removal. PO (polyolefin) has become the mainstream substrate for DAF dicing substrates due to its advantages such as low cost, good flexibility, and excellent interfacial compatibility with DAF films.
[0003] As semiconductor chips develop towards ultra-thin (≤50µm), high-density integration (3D stacking, Chiplet), and high power (SiC / GaN power devices), different chip packaging processes have placed differentiated and precise demands on the modulus of the PO substrate for the DAF film dicing substrate: ultra-thin chip dicing requires a low-modulus PO substrate to avoid chip breakage, 3D stacked chip dicing requires a medium-modulus PO substrate to balance support rigidity and peel stress, and high-power chip dicing requires a high-modulus PO substrate to improve deformation resistance and heat resistance.
[0004] Currently, the PO substrates for existing DAF film dicing bottom films are mostly prepared using a single formulation and process, resulting in a fixed modulus that cannot adapt to the differentiated requirements of different chip packaging processes. Developing separate PO substrates for different packaging processes would lead to a significant increase in production costs, reduced production efficiency, and difficulty in achieving precise modulus matching. Furthermore, existing methods for modulus control of PO substrates suffer from poor compatibility, easy filler segregation, and insufficient modulus stability, easily leading to defects such as chip warping during dicing, chip edge breakage during peeling, and easy deformation of the bottom film, affecting packaging yield and device reliability.
[0005] Therefore, developing a DAF film dicing substrate with precisely controllable PO substrate modulus, adaptable to different chip packaging process requirements, and stable performance, as well as its preparation method, has become an urgent technical problem to be solved in the field of semiconductor packaging materials.
[0006] In view of this, the present invention is hereby proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0064] In some embodiments, the PO substrate further includes auxiliary additives, which include: 0.5-2 parts of antioxidant and 0.5-2 parts of lubricant.
[0065] In some embodiments, the antioxidant is at least one of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol (BHT), 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-ethylphenol (BHEB), pentaerythritol tetrakis[β-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate] (antioxidant 1010), and isooctyl β-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate (antioxidant 1135).

[0076] Furthermore, the opening agent is at least one of silica and talc.
[0077] Furthermore, the slip agent is a specialized additive adapted to polyolefin systems.
[0078] Furthermore, the slip agent is at least one of stearamide, oleamide, and erucamide.
[0079] The preparation method of the above-mentioned adjustable modulus DAF film dicing substrate includes the following steps: Step 1: Mix the components of the PO substrate (base resin, functional filler, compatibilizer, antioxidant and lubricant) in a high-speed mixer according to the proportion to obtain a mixture. Step 2: After grinding the mixture in a grinder, it is fed into a vacuum degassing machine to remove air bubbles from the material, resulting in a uniform PO substrate mixture; and then the adhesive layer mixture and the frosted layer mixture are prepared separately. Step 3: Feed the adhesive layer mixture, PO substrate mixture, and frosted layer mixture into the three extruders of the three-layer co-extrusion blown film machine for melt co-extrusion; Step 4: The co-extruded film is fed into a cooling roller for cooling and shaping to obtain the DAF film dicing base film of PO substrate.
[0080] In some embodiments, the mixing process in step 1 is as follows: mixing for 15-30 minutes (including but not limited to 15 minutes, 20 minutes, 25 minutes, and 30 minutes) at a temperature of 80-100℃ (including but not limited to 80℃, 85℃, 90℃, 95℃, and 100℃) and a rotation speed of 300-500 r / min (including but not limited to 300 r / min, 350 r / min, 400 r / min, 450 r / min, and 500 r / min).
[0081] In some embodiments, the functional filler dispersion of the material after grinding in step 2 is ≤1µm, and the degassing time in the vacuum degassing machine is 10-20min (including but not limited to 10min, 12min, 15min, 18min, 20min).
[0082] In some embodiments, the extrusion temperature of the PO substrate mixture in the melt co-extrusion process in step 3 is controlled at 160-220℃ (including but not limited to 160℃, 180℃, 200℃, 220℃), and the extrusion temperature of the adhesive layer mixture and the frosted layer mixture is controlled at 150-210℃ (including but not limited to 150℃, 180℃, 200℃, 210℃).

[0084] In some implementations, the cooling rate is controlled at 5-30℃ / s during the cooling and shaping process in step 4.
[0085] Furthermore, during step 4, the crystallinity of the PO substrate is controlled by adjusting the cooling rate. The adjustment method is as follows: When preparing low-modulus PO substrate, the cooling rate is controlled at 5-10℃ / s. The slower cooling rate allows sufficient time for the molecular chains to arrange themselves in a regular manner, resulting in lower crystallinity (≤40%) and weaker molecular chain forces, thus causing the PO substrate to have a lower modulus. When preparing medium-modulus PO substrate, the cooling rate is controlled at 10-20℃ / s. The regularity of the molecular chain arrangement is moderate, and the crystallinity is controlled at 40%-50%, resulting in a medium modulus of the PO substrate. When preparing high-modulus PO substrate, the cooling rate is controlled at 20-30℃ / s. The molecular chains solidify rapidly, resulting in a high degree of regularity, increased crystallinity (≥50%), and stronger molecular chain forces, thus causing the PO substrate to have a higher modulus.
[0086] The above-mentioned adjustable modulus DAF film dicing substrate and the adjustable modulus DAF film dicing substrate obtained by the above preparation method are used in different chip packaging processes such as ultra-thin chip dicing, 3D stacked chip dicing, and high-power chip dicing. The DAF film dicing substrate is coated with an acrylic adhesive to obtain PO acrylic tape, which is then cut into the required size and then attached to the DAF film to obtain the die-cutting bonding film (DDAF).
[0087] In some embodiments, the acrylic adhesive is at least one of UV acrylic adhesive and non-UV acrylic adhesive.
[0088] In some embodiments, the acrylic adhesive is applied by at least one of slot coating and mesh coating.
[0089] In some embodiments, the acrylic adhesive coating thickness is 10-20µm, including but not limited to 10µm, 12µm, 15µm, 18µm, and 20µm.
[0090] Furthermore, the thickness of the DAF film is 10-30µm, including but not limited to 10µm, 15µm, 20µm, 25µm, and 30µm.

[0097] Compared to Example 1, Comparative Example 1 used LLDPE as the base resin, and all other formulation components and preparation process parameters were identical. Because POE was not added, Comparative Example 1 could not effectively weaken the molecular chain forces, resulting in a higher modulus. Furthermore, the effective molecular chain forces led to better heat resistance, i.e., a higher glass transition temperature. The rigid structure also restricted the thermal movement of the resin molecular chains, reducing thermal expansion. However, the lack of the elastic component POE resulted in higher rigidity in Comparative Example 1, causing slight breakage of the ultrathin chip during dicing and making it prone to edge chipping. This led to decreased dicing stability and a significant drop in packaging yield, making it unsuitable for the requirements of ultrathin chip packaging.
[0098] The formulation and preparation method of Comparative Example 2 are basically the same as those of Example 2, the only difference being that the functional filler used is a single rigid filler, calcium carbonate. The combination of elastic and rigid fillers can balance the rigidity and flexibility of the membrane material. Therefore, with the same amount of functional filler, Comparative Example 2 lacks elastic filler to offset rigidity, resulting in a significant increase in the proportion of rigid components. This leads to a decrease in the deformation capacity of the PO molecular chains under stress, and the modulus exceeds the medium modulus range. As an amorphous elastomer, the elastic filler's amorphous molecular chains act as "hindrance factors," interspersed between PO molecular chains, hindering their close packing and orderly arrangement, thus disrupting the regularity of the PO molecular chains. In contrast, the rigid filler, with its regular crystalline structure, can act as a "nucleus" for the PO molecular chains, guiding their orderly arrangement and improving the regularity of the molecular chains. Comparative Example 2, with only rigid filler, has a higher degree of molecular chain regularity, resulting in stronger intermolecular forces, a higher glass transition temperature, and a lower coefficient of thermal expansion. Meanwhile, the lack of a combination of rigid and elastic fillers, with only a single rigid filler added, resulted in excessively high rigidity and insufficient flexibility of the membrane material. This made it impossible to balance support and cushioning, leading to uneven stress during the dicing process, which could easily cause warping and breakage, reduced dicing stability, and a significant drop in encapsulation yield.
[0099] The formulation and preparation method of Comparative Example 3 are basically the same as those of Example 3, the only difference being that the cooling rate was adjusted to 8℃ / s. Due to the excessively slow cooling rate, the PO molecular chains in Comparative Example 3 did not have enough time to crosslink and crystallize, resulting in low crystallinity and insufficient modulus. Furthermore, the low degree of crosslinking failed to improve the heat resistance and deformation resistance of the film material, leading to a low glass transition temperature and a high coefficient of thermal expansion. Therefore, the base film was prone to deformation during high-temperature dicing, resulting in unstable chip support, decreased dicing stability, and a significant drop in packaging yield, making it unsuitable for high-temperature packaging processes.
[0100] Therefore, by adjusting the blending ratio of LLDPE, HDPE and POE in the base resin, controlling the crystallinity of different cooling rates, and the synergistic effect of rigid filler / elastic filler selection, the modulus of PO substrate can be controlled in different ranges, solving the problem of fixed modulus and poor adaptability of existing PO substrates.
[0101] This invention can prepare dicing films for high-modulus PO substrates, medium-modulus PO substrates, and low-modulus PO substrates through the synergistic effects of molecular structure design (basic resin blending ratio control), crystallinity control (cooling rate), and filler modification (rigid / elastic filler selection and addition amount control) according to the packaging scenario requirements. By applying dicing films of PO substrates with different moduli on DAF films, dicing films of different moduli can be obtained to obtain dicing chip bonding films (DDAF) suitable for various packaging scenarios such as 3D chip stacking, rigid chip (such as high-power chip) packaging, consumer electronics packaging, ultra-thin chip packaging, and flexible electronic packaging.
