Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a marked inductor and a marked laminated sheet. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, sheet-shaped inductors are known to be mounted in electronic devices. For example, an inductor including a wiring and a magnetic layer covering the wiring has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1 below). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2019-220618 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, in some cases, vias are formed in the magnetic layer to electrically connect the wiring to electronic devices. In this case, it is necessary to align the inductor to accurately recognize the position of the wiring in a plan view. However, the technique disclosed in Patent Document 1 has the drawback that the inductor cannot be aligned with high precision.

[0005] Furthermore, there is a demand from users to obtain information about inductors to be installed in electronic devices before the inductors are installed. However, the inductor disclosed in Patent Document 1 does not include the above-mentioned information. This creates the problem that users cannot obtain the inductor information in advance.

[0006] The present invention provides a marked inductor and a marked laminated sheet that can form vias with high accuracy of alignment or can reliably obtain information about a product. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The present invention (1) includes a marked inductor comprising a sheet-shaped inductor having a plurality of wirings and a magnetic layer in which the plurality of wirings are embedded, and a mark arranged on one side of the inductor in the thickness direction and / or formed on the magnetic layer.

[0008] Since this marked inductor has a mark, it is possible to align the marked inductor based on the mark to form a via, or to recognize information about the product based on the mark and reliably obtain such information.

[0009] The present invention (2) includes the marked inductor according to (1), wherein the mark is spaced apart from the wiring when projected in the thickness direction.

[0010] In this inductor with marks, the marks are spaced apart from the wiring. In other words, the marks are not arranged facing one side of the wiring in the thickness direction. Therefore, the marks are formed without misalignment due to the presence of the wiring. This allows for more accurate alignment of the inductor with marks, and also makes it possible to obtain product-related information more reliably.

[0011] The present invention (3) includes a marked laminate sheet as described in (1) or (2), comprising a marked inductor in which the mark is arranged on one side of the inductor in the thickness direction, and a mark layer arranged on one surface of the inductor in the thickness direction and on which the mark is arranged.

[0012] Since this marked laminate sheet has marks, the marked laminate sheet can be aligned based on the marks to form vias, or information about the product can be recognized based on the marks and such information can be reliably obtained.

[0013] Furthermore, since this marked laminated sheet includes a mark layer, the marks can be reliably provided.

[0014] The present invention (4) includes the marked laminate sheet according to (3), wherein the material of the mark layer is a resin composition.

[0015] In this marked laminate sheet, the mark layer is made of a resin composition, so that marks can be easily formed.

[0016] The present invention (5) includes the marked laminate sheet according to (4), in which the resin composition is a thermosetting resin composition and satisfies at least one of the following tests (a) to (e):

[0017] Test (a): The marked laminate sheet is cut into a 3 cm square to prepare a sample, and its relative permeability μ1 at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200 mL of copper sulfate plating solution containing 66 g / L of copper sulfate pentahydrate, 180 g / L of sulfuric acid, 50 ppm of chlorine, and top lutina α at 25°C for 120 minutes, and the relative permeability μ2 of the sample at a frequency of 10 MHz is then measured. The rate of change in permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula. As a result, the rate of change in the sample's permeability is 5% or less.

[0018] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ1-μ2| / μ1×100 Test (b): The marked laminated sheet is cut into a 3 cm square to prepare a sample, and its relative permeability μ3 at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200 mL of an acid-activated aqueous solution containing 55 g / L of sulfuric acid at 25°C for 1 minute, and the relative permeability μ4 of the sample at a frequency of 10 MHz is then measured. The rate of change in permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula. As a result, the rate of change in the sample's permeability is 5% or less.

[0019] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ3-μ4| / μ3×100 Test (c): The marked laminated sheet is cut into a 3 cm square to prepare a sample, and its relative permeability μ5 at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200 mL of Securigant P Reduction Solution manufactured by Atotech Japan at 45°C for 5 minutes, and the relative permeability μ6 of the sample at a frequency of 10 MHz is then measured. The rate of change in magnetic permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula: As a result, the rate of change in magnetic permeability of the sample is 5% or less.

[0020] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ5-μ6| / μ5×100 Test (d): The marked laminated sheet is cut into a 3 cm square to create a sample, and its relative permeability μ7 at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200 mL of Concentrate Compact CP manufactured by Atotech Japan at 80°C for 15 minutes, after which the relative permeability μ8 of the sample at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The rate of change in permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula. As a result, the rate of change in the sample's permeability is 5% or less.

[0021] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ7-μ8| / μ7×100 Test (e): The marked laminated sheet is cut into a 3 cm square to prepare a sample, and its relative permeability μ9 at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200 mL of Swelling Dip Securigant P manufactured by Atotech Japan at 60°C for 5 minutes, after which the relative permeability μ10 of the sample at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The rate of change in permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula. As a result, the rate of change in the sample's permeability is 5% or less.

[0022] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ9-μ10| / μ9×100 This marked laminated sheet satisfies at least one of tests (a) to (e), and therefore has excellent stability against processing using chemical solutions.

[0023] The present invention (6) includes the inductor with a mark according to (1), wherein the mark is a through hole that penetrates the magnetic layer in the thickness direction.

[0024] In this inductor with marks, visibility from the other side in the thickness direction can be ensured even if an insulating layer is disposed on the magnetic layer. [Effects of the Invention]

[0025] The marked inductor and marked laminate sheet of the present invention can be aligned with high precision to form vias or to reliably obtain information about products. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[Figure 9]FIG. 9 is a plan view of a modified example of the marked laminated sheet shown in FIG. 1B (a modified example in which the marks are lot numbers). DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0027] <One embodiment> One embodiment of the marked laminate sheet of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1B and 2C.

[0028] The marked laminated sheet 1 has a predetermined thickness and a sheet shape extending in a plane direction perpendicular to the thickness direction. For example, the marked laminated sheet 1 has a generally rectangular shape in a plan view. The marked laminated sheet 1 includes a sheet-like inductor 2, a mark layer 3, and marks 4.

[0029] In plan view, the inductor 2 has the same outer shape as the marked laminated sheet 1. Specifically, in plan view, the inductor 2 has a substantially rectangular shape including four sides 5.

[0030] The inductor 2 also includes a plurality of wires 7 and a magnetic layer 8.

[0031] The multiple wirings 7 are adjacent to each other with a gap therebetween. The multiple wirings 7 are parallel to each other. The multiple wirings 7 extend in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which they are adjacent to each other and the thickness direction. The shape, dimensions, configuration, material, formulation (filling rate, content ratio, etc.) of the wirings 7 are described, for example, in JP 2019-220618 A. Preferably, the wirings 7 have a substantially circular shape in a cross section perpendicular to the direction along the wirings 7, with a lower limit of the diameter being, for example, 25 μm and an upper limit of the diameter being, for example, 2,000 μm. The wirings 7 preferably include a conductor wire and an insulating film covering the circumferential surface of the conductor wire. The lower limit of the distance between adjacent wirings 7 is, for example, 10 μm, preferably 50 μm, and the upper limit of the distance between adjacent wirings 7 is, for example, 5,000 μm, preferably 3,000 μm. The upper limit of the ratio of the diameter of the wiring 7 to the spacing between adjacent wirings 7 (diameter / spacing) is, for example, 200, or preferably 50, and the lower limit is, for example, 0.01, or preferably 0.1.

[0032] The magnetic layer 8 improves the inductance of the marked laminate sheet 1. In a plan view, the magnetic layer 8 has the same outer shape as the inductor 2. The magnetic layer 8 has a plate shape extending in the plane direction. In a cross-sectional view, the magnetic layer 8 has a plurality of wirings 7 embedded therein. The magnetic layer 8 has one surface 9, another surface 10, and an inner peripheral surface 11.

[0033] One surface 9 forms one surface of the magnetic layer 8 in the thickness direction.

[0034] The other surface 10 forms the other surface in the thickness direction of the magnetic layer 8. The other surface 10 is spaced apart from the one surface 9 on the other side in the thickness direction.

[0035] The inner circumferential surface 11 is spaced apart from the one surface 9 and the other surface 10 in the thickness direction. The inner circumferential surface 11 is located between the one surface 9 and the other surface 10 in the thickness direction. The inner circumferential surface 11 is also located between two opposing outer surfaces 18 in the direction in which the multiple wirings 7 are adjacent to each other. The inner circumferential surface 11 contacts the outer surfaces of the wirings 7.

[0036] The magnetic layer 8 includes a binder and magnetic particles. Specifically, the material of the magnetic layer 8 is a magnetic composition containing a binder and magnetic particles.

[0037] Examples of binders include thermoplastic resins such as acrylic resins and thermosetting resins such as epoxy resin compositions. The acrylic resins include, for example, carboxyl group-containing acrylic ester copolymers. The epoxy resin compositions include, for example, an epoxy resin (e.g., cresol novolac epoxy resin) as a base component, an epoxy resin curing agent (e.g., phenolic resin), and an epoxy resin curing accelerator (e.g., imidazole compound). As the binder, a thermoplastic resin and a thermosetting resin can be used alone or in combination, and preferably a thermoplastic resin and a thermosetting resin are used in combination. The volume ratio of the binder in the magnetic composition is the remainder of the volume ratio of the magnetic particles described below.

[0038] The magnetic particles are dispersed in, for example, a binder. In this embodiment, the magnetic particles have, for example, a substantially flat shape. The substantially flat shape includes a substantially plate shape. The magnetic particles may have a substantially spherical shape or a substantially needle shape. Preferably, the magnetic particles have a substantially flat shape.

[0039] When the magnetic particles have a substantially flat shape, the lower limit of the flatness (degree of flatness) is, for example, 8, or preferably 15, and the upper limit is, for example, 500, or preferably 450. The flatness is calculated, for example, as the aspect ratio obtained by dividing the median diameter of the magnetic particles by the average thickness of the magnetic particles.

[0040] The lower limit of the median diameter of the magnetic particles is, for example, 3.5 μm, preferably 10 μm, and the upper limit is, for example, 200 μm, preferably 150 μm. When the magnetic particles have a substantially flat shape, the lower limit of the average thickness is, for example, 0.1 μm, preferably 0.2 μm, and the upper limit is, for example, 3.0 μm, preferably 2.5 μm.

[0041] The material of the magnetic particles is a metal. Examples of the metal include magnetic materials such as soft magnetic materials and hard magnetic materials. Preferably, a soft magnetic material is used from the viewpoint of ensuring good inductance.

[0042] Examples of soft magnetic materials include single metal bodies containing one type of metal element in a pure substance state, and alloy bodies that are eutectic bodies (mixtures) of one or more types of metal elements (first metal elements) with one or more types of metal elements (second metal elements) and / or non-metal elements (carbon, nitrogen, silicon, phosphorus, etc.). These can be used alone or in combination.

[0043] An example of a single metal body is a metal element consisting of only one type of metal element (first metal element). The first metal element is appropriately selected from metal elements that can be contained as the first metal element in a soft magnetic body, such as iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), and others.

[0044] Furthermore, examples of the single metal body include a core containing only one type of metal element and a surface layer containing an inorganic and / or organic substance that modifies part or all of the surface of the core, such as a form obtained by decomposing (e.g., thermally decomposing) an organometallic compound or inorganic metal compound containing the first metal element. More specifically, the latter form includes iron powder (sometimes referred to as carbonyl iron powder) obtained by thermally decomposing an organoiron compound (e.g., carbonyl iron) containing iron as the first metal element. The location of the layer containing the inorganic and / or organic substance that modifies the part containing only one type of metal element is not limited to the surface as described above. The organometallic compound or inorganic metal compound from which the single metal body can be obtained is not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected from known or commonly used organometallic compounds or inorganic metal compounds that can be used to obtain a single metal body of a soft magnetic material.

[0045] The alloy body is a eutectic of one or more metal elements (first metal elements) and one or more metal elements (second metal elements) and / or non-metal elements (carbon, nitrogen, silicon, phosphorus, etc.), and is not particularly limited as long as it can be used as an alloy body of a soft magnetic material.

[0046] The first metallic element is an essential element in the alloy body, and examples thereof include iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), etc. If the first metallic element is Fe, the alloy body is an Fe-based alloy, if the first metallic element is Co, the alloy body is a Co-based alloy, and if the first metallic element is Ni, the alloy body is a Ni-based alloy.

[0047] The second metallic element is an element (secondary component) secondarily contained in the alloy body, and is a metallic element that is compatible (eutectic) with the first metallic element, and examples thereof include iron (Fe) (when the first metallic element is other than Fe), cobalt (Co) (when the first metallic element is other than Co), nickel (Ni) (when the first metallic element is other than Ni), chromium (Cr), aluminum (Al), silicon (Si), copper (Cu), silver (Ag), manganese (Mn), calcium (Ca), barium (B). Examples of rare earth elements include aluminum (Ba), titanium (Ti), zirconium (Zr), hafnium (Hf), vanadium (V), niobium (Nb), tantalum (Ta), molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W), ruthenium (Ru), rhodium (Rh), zinc (Zn), gallium (Ga), indium (In), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), scandium (Sc), yttrium (Y), strontium (Sr), and various rare earth elements. These can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0048] The non-metallic element is an element (secondary component) secondarily contained in the alloy body, and is a non-metallic element that is compatible (eutectic) with the first metallic element, such as boron (B), carbon (C), nitrogen (N), silicon (Si), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), etc. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0049] Examples of Fe-based alloys include magnetic stainless steel (Fe-Cr-Al-Si alloy) (including electromagnetic stainless steel), sendust (Fe-Si-Al alloy) (including super sendust), permalloy (Fe-Ni alloy), Fe-Ni-Mo alloy, Fe-Ni-Mo-Cu alloy, Fe-Ni-Co alloy, Fe-Cr alloy, Fe-Cr-Al alloy, Fe-Ni-Cr alloy, Fe-Ni-Cr-Si alloy, silicon copper (Fe-Cu-Si alloy), Fe-Si alloy, Fe-Si-B(-Cu-Nb) alloy, Fe-B-Si-Cr alloy, Fe-S Examples of such alloys include i-Cr-Ni alloys, Fe-Si-Cr alloys, Fe-Si-Al-Ni-Cr alloys, Fe-Ni-Si-Co alloys, Fe-N alloys, Fe-C alloys, Fe-B alloys, Fe-P alloys, ferrites (including stainless steel ferrites, as well as soft ferrites such as Mn-Mg ferrites, Mn-Zn ferrites, Ni-Zn ferrites, Ni-Zn-Cu ferrites, Cu-Zn ferrites, and Cu-Mg-Zn ferrites), permendur (Fe-Co alloys), Fe-Co-V alloys, and Fe-based amorphous alloys.

[0050] Examples of the alloy body, Co-based alloys, include Co-Ta-Zr and cobalt (Co)-based amorphous alloys.

[0051] An example of an alloy body, a Ni-based alloy, is a Ni-Cr alloy.

[0052] A more detailed formulation of the magnetic composition described above is described in, for example, JP 2014-165363 A.

[0053] The lower limit of the volume fraction of the magnetic particles in the magnetic composition is, for example, 40 volume %, preferably 50 volume %, more preferably 60 volume %, and the upper limit is, for example, 95 volume %, preferably 90 volume %.

[0054] The lower limit of the thickness of the inductor 2 is, for example, 30 μm, or preferably 40 μm, and the upper limit of the thickness of the inductor 2 is, for example, 2,500 μm, or preferably 2,000 μm.

[0055] Furthermore, the lower limit of the ratio of the thickness of the inductor 2 to the thickness of the marked laminated sheet 1 is, for example, 0.1, preferably 0.3, more preferably 0.7, and the upper limit is, for example, 0.999, preferably 0.990, more preferably 0.980.

[0056] The mark layer 3 is a layer on which marks 4, which will be described next, are formed. The mark layer 3 has a sheet shape extending in the surface direction. Specifically, the mark layer 3 has the same outer shape as the marked laminate sheet 1 in a plan view. The mark layer 3 is disposed on one surface 9 of the magnetic layer 8. Specifically, the mark layer 3 is in contact with the entire one surface 9.

[0057] The material of the mark layer 3 is not particularly limited and may be, for example, a resin composition, a metal, or a ceramic, and is preferably a resin composition. If the material of the mark layer 3 is a resin composition, it is easy to form the mark 4 described below.

[0058] The resin composition contains, for example, a resin as an essential component and particles as an optional component.

[0059] Examples of the resin include curable resins such as thermosetting resins and active energy ray curable resins, and plastic resins such as thermoplastic resins.

[0060] The curable resin is preferably a thermosetting resin, which includes a base resin, a curing agent, and a curing accelerator.

[0061] Examples of the base resin include epoxy resins and silicone resins, and preferably epoxy resins. Examples of epoxy resins include bifunctional epoxy resins such as bisphenol A epoxy resins, bisphenol F epoxy resins, bisphenol S epoxy resins, modified bisphenol A epoxy resins, modified bisphenol F epoxy resins, modified bisphenol S epoxy resins, and biphenyl epoxy resins, and polyfunctional epoxy resins having three or more functional groups such as phenol novolac epoxy resins, cresol novolac epoxy resins, trishydroxyphenylmethane epoxy resins, tetraphenylolethane epoxy resins, and dicyclopentadiene epoxy resins. These epoxy resins can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Preferably, bifunctional epoxy resins are used, and more preferably, bisphenol A epoxy resins.

[0062] The lower limit of the epoxy equivalent of the epoxy resin is, for example, 10 g / eq., and the upper limit is, for example, 1,000 g / eq.

[0063] If the base resin is an epoxy resin, examples of the curing agent include phenolic resins and isocyanate resins. Examples of phenolic resins include polyfunctional phenolic resins such as phenol novolac resins, cresol novolac resins, phenol aralkyl resins, phenol biphenylene resins, dicyclopentadiene-type phenolic resins, and resol resins. These can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Preferred phenolic resins include phenol novolac resins and phenol biphenylene resins. If the base resin is an epoxy resin and the curing agent is a phenolic resin, the lower limit of the total number of hydroxyl groups in the phenolic resin per equivalent of epoxy groups in the epoxy resin is, for example, 0.7 equivalents, preferably 0.9 equivalents, and the upper limit is, for example, 1.5 equivalents, preferably 1.2 equivalents. Specifically, the lower limit of the number of parts by mass of the curing agent per 100 parts by mass of the base resin is, for example, 1 part by mass, or, for example, 50 parts by mass.

[0064] The curing accelerator is a catalyst (thermal curing catalyst) (preferably an epoxy resin curing accelerator) that accelerates the curing of the base resin, and examples thereof include organic phosphorus compounds, such as imidazole compounds such as 2-phenyl-4-methyl-5-hydroxymethylimidazole (2P4MHZ). The lower limit of the number of parts by mass of the curing accelerator is, for example, 0.05 parts by mass, and the upper limit is, for example, 5 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the base resin.

[0065] Examples of the thermoplastic resin include acrylic resin, polyester resin, thermoplastic polyurethane resin, etc. The thermoplastic resin also includes hydrophilic polymers.

[0066] As the resin, either a hardening resin or a plastic resin can be used alone, or they can be used in combination.

[0067] The lower limit of the mass proportion of the resin in the resin composition is, for example, 10 mass %, or preferably 30 mass %, and the upper limit is, for example, 90 mass %, or preferably 75 mass %.

[0068] The particles are at least one type selected from the group consisting of first particles and second particles.

[0069] The first particles have, for example, a substantially spherical shape. The lower limit of the median diameter of the first particles is, for example, 1 μm, preferably 5 μm, and the upper limit of the median diameter of the first particles is, for example, 250 μm, preferably 200 μm. The median diameter of the first particles is determined using a laser diffraction particle size distribution analyzer. Alternatively, the median diameter of the first particles can be determined, for example, by binarization processing based on cross-sectional observation.

[0070] The material of the first particles is not particularly limited. Examples of the material of the first particles include metals, inorganic compounds, organic compounds, and simple non-metallic elements, and from the viewpoint of reliably forming the marks 4, inorganic compounds and simple non-metallic elements are preferred.

[0071] The inorganic compound is contained in the resin composition when the mark layer 3 functions as an ink receiving layer. Examples of the inorganic compound include inorganic fillers, specifically silica and alumina, and preferably silica.

[0072] The non-metallic element is contained in the resin composition when the mark layer 3 is made to function as a laser discoloration layer. Examples of the non-metallic element include carbon and silicon, preferably carbon, and more preferably carbon black.

[0073] Specifically, the first particles are preferably spherical silica, and are preferably spherical carbon black.

[0074] The second particles have, for example, a substantially flat shape, which includes a substantially plate shape.

[0075] The lower limit of the flattening ratio (flatness) of the second particles is, for example, 8, or preferably 15, and the upper limit is, for example, 500, or preferably 450. The flattening ratio of the second particles is calculated using the same method as the flattening ratio of the magnetic particles in the magnetic layer 8 described above.

[0076] The lower limit of the median diameter of the second particles is, for example, 1 μm, or preferably 5 μm, and the upper limit of the median diameter of the second particles is, for example, 250 μm, or preferably 200 μm. The median diameter of the second particles is determined in the same manner as that of the first particles.

[0077] The lower limit of the average thickness of the second particles is, for example, 0.1 μm, or preferably 0.2 μm, and the upper limit is, for example, 3.0 μm, or preferably 2.5 μm.

[0078] The material of the second particles is an inorganic compound, such as a thermally conductive compound such as boron nitride.

[0079] Specifically, the second particles are preferably flat boron nitride particles.

[0080] The resin composition may contain a single type of first particles and a second particle, or may contain both of them.

[0081] The lower limit of the number of parts by mass of the particles (first particles and / or second particles) per 100 parts by mass of the resin is, for example, 10 parts by mass, preferably 50 parts by mass, and the upper limit is, for example, 2,000 parts by mass, preferably 1,500 parts by mass. The lower limit of the particle content in the resin composition is, for example, 10% by mass, and the upper limit is, for example, 90% by mass. When both the first particles and the second particles are contained in the resin composition, the lower limit of the number of parts by mass of the second particles per 100 parts by mass of the first particles is, for example, 30 parts by mass, and the upper limit is, for example, 300 parts by mass.

[0082] Since particles are an optional component in the resin composition, the resin composition does not necessarily need to contain particles.

[0083] The lower limit of the thickness of the mark layer 3 is, for example, 1 μm, or preferably 10 μm, and the upper limit is, for example, 1,000 μm, or preferably 100 μm. The lower limit of the ratio of the thickness of the mark layer 3 to the thickness of the marked laminated sheet 1 is, for example, 0.001, preferably 0.005, or more preferably 0.01, and the upper limit is, for example, 0.5, preferably 0.3, or more preferably 0.1.

[0084] The marks 4 are, for example, marks that notify the positional information of the plurality of wirings 7 in the inductor 2. The marks 4 are also alignment marks for forming the vias 16 in the laminated sheet 1 with the marks.

[0085] The marks 4 are formed on the mark layer 3. Specifically, the marks 4 are arranged on one surface in the thickness direction of the mark layer 3. For example, each of the marks 4 is formed at each of four corners 6 defined by four sides 5 of the mark layer 3. The marks 4 have, for example, a substantially cross shape in plan view.

[0086] The mark 4 is a recess extending from one surface of the mark layer 3 in the thickness direction toward the other surface in the thickness direction, and extending partway in the thickness direction.

[0087] Furthermore, when projected in the thickness direction, the mark 4 is spaced outward in the adjacent direction from the plurality of wirings 7. In other words, when projected in the thickness direction, the mark 4 does not overlap with the plurality of wirings 7, but is shifted from the plurality of wirings 7. The minimum distance L between the mark 4 and the wirings 7 has a lower limit of, for example, 10 μm, or preferably 50 μm, and an upper limit of, for example, 10 mm, or preferably 5 mm, or more preferably 3 mm.

[0088] The dimensions of the mark 4 are not particularly limited. The lower limit of the length of the mark 4 in the direction in which the wiring 7 extends is, for example, 10 μm, preferably 50 μm, more preferably 300 μm, and the upper limit is, for example, 5 mm, preferably 2 mm, more preferably 1 mm. The lower limit of the length of the mark 4 in the direction in which the multiple wirings 7 are adjacent to each other is, for example, 10 μm, preferably 50 μm, more preferably 300 μm, and the upper limit is, for example, 5 mm, preferably 2 mm, more preferably 1 mm. If the above-mentioned dimensions of the mark 4 are not less than the above-mentioned lower limit, the mark 4 can be reliably read as an alignment mark. If the above-mentioned dimensions of the mark 4 are not more than the above-mentioned upper limit, the marked laminated sheet 1 can be made smaller.

[0089] The lower limit of the depth of the mark 4 is, for example, 1 μm, or preferably 5 μm, and the upper limit is 1 mm. The lower limit of the ratio of the depth of the mark 4 to the thickness (depth) of the mark layer 3 is, for example, 0.01, or preferably 0.1, and the upper limit is, for example, 0.9, or preferably 0.7.

[0090] Next, a method for producing and processing the above-mentioned marked laminated sheet 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1A to 2D.

[0091] In this method, first, an inductor 2 is prepared as shown in Fig. 2A. The inductor 2 is prepared by, for example, the method described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2019-220618.

[0092] Next, in this method, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 2B, a mark-formable layer 15 is disposed on one surface of the inductor 2 in the thickness direction.

[0093] The mark-formable layer 15 is a layer on which marks 4 have not yet been formed, and on which marks 4 can be formed in the next step. The material of the mark-formable layer 15 is the same as the material of the mark layer 3. To arrange this mark-formable layer 15 on the inductor 2, first, a mark-formable sheet 14 is prepared. The mark-formable sheet 14 is a sheet before the mark-formable layer 15 is arranged on one side 9 of the inductor 2, and its material is the same as the material of the mark layer 3. To prepare the mark-formable sheet 14, a solvent is further mixed with the above-mentioned materials to prepare a varnish, which is then applied to the surface of a release sheet (not shown) and dried. If the resin contains a thermosetting resin, the thermosetting resin is in the B-stage or C-stage.

[0094] Next, the mark-formable sheet 14 is attached to one thickness-wise surface of the inductor 2. Specifically, the other thickness-wise surface of the mark-formable sheet 14 is brought into contact with one thickness-wise surface of the inductor 2. As a result, the mark-formable sheet 14 is formed on the mark-formable layer 15 in a state of contacting the one surface 9.

[0095] Thereafter, if the resin contains a B-stage thermosetting resin, the thermosetting resin is converted to a C-stage by heating.

[0096] As a result, the mark-formable layer 15 is disposed (laminated) on one surface in the thickness direction of the inductor 2. Preferably, the mark-formable layer 15 is adhered to one surface 9 of the magnetic layer 8.

[0097] This produces a laminated sheet 13 that includes the inductor 2 and the mark-formable layer 15. This laminated sheet 13 does not yet include the mark 4 and is a component for producing the marked laminated sheet 1, and is a device that can be distributed independently and is industrially applicable.

[0098] The method then forms marks 4 in the markable layer 15, as shown in Figures 1B and 2C.

[0099] The method for forming the marks 4 is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include drilling, punching by shearing, physical polishing (for example, sandblasting), and chemical etching.

[0100] As a result, the mark-formable layer 15 becomes the mark layer 3 on which the marks 4 are formed. As a result, a laminated sheet 1 with marks, which includes the inductor 2, the mark layer 3, and the marks 4, is obtained.

[0101] The marked laminate sheet 1 satisfies at least one of the tests (a) to (e), for example.

[0102] Test (a): Marked laminate sheet 1 is cut into a 3 cm square to create a sample, and its relative permeability μ1 at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200 mL of copper sulfate plating solution containing 66 g / L of copper sulfate pentahydrate, 180 g / L of sulfuric acid, 50 ppm of chlorine, and Top Lucina α manufactured by Okuno Chemical Industries Co., Ltd. at 25°C for 120 minutes, and the relative permeability μ2 of the sample at a frequency of 10 MHz is then measured. The rate of change in permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula. As a result, the rate of change in the sample's permeability is 5% or less.

[0103] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ1-μ2| / μ1×100 Test (b): The marked laminate sheet 1 is cut into a 3 cm square to prepare a sample, and its relative permeability μ3 at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200 mL of an acid-activated aqueous solution containing 55 g / L of sulfuric acid at 25°C for 1 minute, and the relative permeability μ4 of the sample at a frequency of 10 MHz is then measured. The rate of change in permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula. As a result, the rate of change in the sample's permeability is 5% or less.

[0104] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ3-μ4| / μ3×100 Test (c): The marked laminate sheet 1 is cut into a 3 cm square to create a sample, and its relative permeability μ5 at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200 mL of Securigant P Reduction Solution manufactured by Atotech Japan at 45°C for 5 minutes, after which the relative permeability μ6 of the sample at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The rate of change in permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula. As a result, the rate of change in the sample's permeability is 5% or less.

[0105] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ5-μ6| / μ5×100 Test (d): The marked laminate sheet 1 is cut into a 3cm square to create a sample, and its relative permeability μ7 at a frequency of 10MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200mL of Concentrate Compact CP manufactured by Atotech Japan at 80°C for 15 minutes, after which the relative permeability μ8 of the sample at a frequency of 10MHz is measured. The rate of change in permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula. As a result, the rate of change in the sample's permeability is 5% or less.

[0106] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ7-μ8| / μ7×100 Test (e): The marked laminate sheet 1 is cut into a 3 cm square to create a sample, and its relative permeability μ9 at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The sample is then immersed in 200 mL of Swelling Dip Securigant P manufactured by Atotech Japan at 60°C for 5 minutes, after which the relative permeability μ10 of the sample at a frequency of 10 MHz is measured. The rate of change in permeability before and after immersion is calculated using the following formula. As a result, the rate of change in the sample's permeability is 5% or less.

[0107] Permeability change rate (%) = |μ9-μ10| / μ9×100 In the case where test (a) is satisfied, the upper limit of the rate of change in magnetic permeability of the sample in test (a) is preferably 4%, more preferably 3%.

[0108] If test (a) is satisfied, the marked laminate sheet 1 has excellent stability against immersion in a copper sulfate solution for electrolytic copper plating.

[0109] In the case where test (b) is satisfied, the upper limit of the rate of change in magnetic permeability of the sample in test (b) is preferably 4%, more preferably 3%.

[0110] If test (b) is satisfied, the marked laminate sheet 1 has excellent stability against immersion in an acid activation solution.

[0111] In the case where test (c) is satisfied, the upper limit of the rate of change in magnetic permeability of the sample in test (c) is preferably 4%, more preferably 3%.

[0112] In test (c), Atotech Japan's Reduction Solution Securiganth P contains an aqueous sulfuric acid solution and is used as a neutralizing liquid (neutralizing agent or aqueous solution for neutralization). Therefore, if test (c) is satisfied, the marked laminate sheet 1 has excellent stability against immersion in a neutralizing liquid.

[0113] In the case where test (d) is satisfied, the upper limit of the rate of change in magnetic permeability of the sample in test (d) is preferably 4%, more preferably 3%.

[0114] The Concentrate Compact CP manufactured by Atotech Japan in test (d) contains potassium permanganate solution. Therefore, if test (d) is satisfied, the marked laminated sheet 1 has excellent stability against immersion in potassium permanganate solution for desmearing (cleaning).

[0115] In the case where test (e) is satisfied, the upper limit of the rate of change in magnetic permeability of the sample in test (e) is preferably 4%, more preferably 3%.

[0116] In test (e), Swelling Dip Securigant P manufactured by Atotech Japan is an aqueous solution containing glycol ethers and sodium hydroxide, and is used as the swelling liquid. Therefore, if test (e) is satisfied, the marked laminate sheet 1 has excellent stability against immersion in a swelling liquid.

[0117] Preferably, all of tests (a) to (e) are satisfied, and therefore the marked laminate sheet 1 has excellent stability against immersion in a copper sulfate solution for electrolytic copper plating, an acid activation solution, a neutralizing solution, a potassium permanganate solution for desmearing (cleaning), and a swelling solution, and has excellent stability against various processes using these solutions.

[0118] As shown in FIGS. 1C and 2D, vias 16 are then formed in the marked laminate sheet 1.

[0119] When forming the vias 16, for example, the marks 4 are used as alignment marks to align the marked laminated sheet 1. For example, the marks 4 (positions thereof) are recognized (read) by a recognition device arranged on one side in the thickness direction of the marked laminated sheet 1, and the mark 4 is used as a reference to adjust the position of the marked laminated sheet 1 in the plane direction relative to the device that will perform the next processing.

[0120] The method for forming the vias 16 is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include contact opening such as drilling or sandblasting, and non-contact processing using, for example, a laser.

[0121] The via 16 overlaps with the wiring 7 in a plan view, for example. More specifically, the via 16 is a through-hole that exposes the center of one thickness-wise surface of the wiring 7 and penetrates the magnetic layer 8 and the mark layer 3 located on one thickness-wise side of the wiring 7 in the thickness direction. The via 16 has a substantially circular shape in a plan view (not shown). In a cross-sectional view, the via 16 has a tapered shape whose opening area increases toward one thickness-wise side. Alternatively, although not shown, the via 16 may have a straight shape in a cross-sectional view with the opening cross-sectional area being the same on one thickness-wise side.

[0122] Thereafter, the marked laminate sheet 1 with the vias 16 formed therein undergoes processes such as photolithography and plating (copper plating, etc.) to form a conductive layer (not shown) on the wiring 7 exposed from the vias 16, and is then mounted on and bonded to an electronic device or electronic component. The electronic device or electronic component is electrically connected to the wiring 7 through the vias 16.

[0123] <Effects of one embodiment> Since this marked laminated sheet 1 has marks 4, the marked laminated sheet 1 can be aligned based on the marks 4 to form vias 16.

[0124] Furthermore, since this marked laminated sheet 1 includes the mark layer 3, the marks 4 can be reliably provided.

[0125] Although not shown, if the mark 4 is disposed opposite to one side of the wiring 7 in the thickness direction, the mark 4 may be displaced due to the presence of the wiring 7.

[0126] However, in this marked laminated sheet 1, the marks 4 are spaced apart from the wiring 7. In other words, the marks 4 are not arranged facing one side of the wiring 7 in the thickness direction. Therefore, the marks 4 are formed without misalignment due to the presence of the wiring 7. This allows the marked laminated sheet 1 to be aligned even more accurately.

[0127] Furthermore, in this marked laminate sheet 1, if the material of the mark layer 3 is a resin composition, the marks 4 can be easily formed.

[0128] <Modification> In the following modifications, the same components and steps as those in the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted. Furthermore, each modification can achieve the same effects as those in the above-described embodiment unless otherwise specified. Furthermore, the embodiment and its modifications can be combined as appropriate.

[0129] The shape of the mark 4 is not limited to the above. Although not shown, examples of the shape of the mark 4 in plan view include a substantially V-shape, a substantially X-shape, a substantially L-shape, a substantially I-shape (including a substantially linear shape), a substantially U-shape, a substantially C-shape, a substantially ring-shape (including a substantially elliptical ring-shape), a substantially circular shape (including a substantially elliptical shape), a substantially polygonal frame shape (including a substantially triangular frame shape and a substantially rectangular frame shape), and a substantially polygonal shape (including a substantially triangular shape and a substantially rectangular shape).

[0130] The position of the mark 4 is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, between adjacent wirings 7, although not shown.

[0131] As shown in FIG. 3, the markable layer 15 may be a laser-colorable layer and / or an ink-receptive layer.

[0132] When the mark-formable layer 15 is a laser-color-changeable layer, both the laser-color-changeable layer and the mark layer 3 contain, for example, a thermosetting resin as the resin and spherical carbon black as the first particles, and are, for example, black. When the laser-color-changeable layer is irradiated with a laser, the first particles (carbon black) in the irradiated area are thermally decomposed and removed, and the blackness of that area decreases (the color becomes lighter) (the area changes color). As a result, the mark-formable layer 15 becomes the mark layer 3 having the discolored mark 4.

[0133] When the mark-formable layer 15 is an ink-receiving layer, the ink-receiving layer and the mark layer 3 contain, for example, a hydrophilic polymer as the resin and spherical silica as the first particles. Ink (not shown) is printed on the mark-formable layer 15, and then the hydrophilic polymer and silica of the mark-formable layer 15 absorb (have affinity for) the ink. As a result, the mark-formable layer 15 becomes the mark layer 3 having the colored marks 4.

[0134] As shown in FIG. 4, the mark 4 may be a through-hole that penetrates the mark layer 3.

[0135] 5, the mark 4 may be disposed on one surface in the thickness direction of the mark layer 3. The mark 4 is made of, for example, a solid ink (preferably a cured product such as an ultraviolet cured product).

[0136] As shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, the marks 4 can also be formed directly on the inductor 2, rather than on the mark layer 3. In this modification, the inductor 2 and the marks 4 are provided in a marked inductor 21. More specifically, the marked inductor 21 does not have a mark layer 3, and only has the inductor 2 and the marks 4. The marked inductor 21 is not a marked laminated sheet 1.

[0137] In the modified inductor 21 with marks shown in Fig. 6, the marks 4 are formed on one surface 9 of the inductor 2. The marks 4 are magnetic recesses 26 that extend from one surface 9 of the magnetic layer 8 toward the other side, halfway through the thickness direction. The dimensions of the magnetic recesses 26 in a plan view are the same as the dimensions of the marks 4 in the embodiment.

[0138] 7, the mark 4 is a through hole 27 that penetrates the inductor 2 in the thickness direction. More specifically, the through hole 27 penetrates the magnetic layer 8 in the thickness direction. The dimensions of the through hole 27 in a plan view are the same as the dimensions of the mark 4 in the embodiment.

[0139] 6 and the through-hole 27 shown in Fig. 7 can be formed by contact processing such as drilling or sandblasting, or non-contact processing using a laser, for example. Contact processing is preferred because it requires a short processing time, and drilling is more preferred.

[0140] For example, an insulating layer 28, shown by a virtual line, can be disposed on one surface 9 in the thickness direction of the magnetic layer 8 shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. The insulating layer 28 contacts one surface 9 in the thickness direction of the magnetic layer 8. The insulating layer 28 extends in the planar direction. Examples of materials for the insulating layer 28 include the resin compositions exemplified as materials for the mark layer 3 in one embodiment. In FIG. 6, the insulating layer 28 fills the magnetic recesses 26. In FIG. 7, the insulating layer 28 closes one edge in the thickness direction of the through hole 27. Although not shown, the through hole 27 may be filled with the resin composition used for the insulating layer 28.

[0141] Comparing the magnetic recess 26 shown in Fig. 6 with the through hole 27 shown in Fig. 7, the through hole 27 shown in Fig. 7 is preferable. With the modified example of Fig. 7, visibility from the other side in the thickness direction can be ensured when the insulating layer 28 shown by the imaginary line is formed.

[0142] Although not shown, the mark 4 can be provided on both the mark layer 3 and the inductor 2 .

[0143] In a modified marked inductor 21 shown in Fig. 8, the mark 4 is formed by cutting out a corner 6 (see Fig. 6) of the inductor 2. The mark 4 is formed by cutting out a rectangular shape of the corner 6 in the thickness direction.

[0144] 9, the mark 4 can include information about the marked laminate sheet 1 (or marked inductor 21) as a product, instead of or in addition to the alignment mark. Examples of the information include the lot number of the marked laminate sheet 1, the magnetic permeability of the marked laminate sheet 1, etc.

[0145] As shown by the dashed-dotted line in Fig. 2B, the mark-formable layer 15 can also be formed on one surface 9 and the other surface 10 of the inductor 2. In this modification, as shown in Fig. 2C, two mark layers 3 are disposed on each of the one surface 9 and the other surface 10. A mark 4 is formed on each of the two mark layers 3.

[0146] The modified example in which the marks 4 are formed on each of the two mark layers 3 is preferable to the embodiment in which the marks 4 are formed on only one mark layer 3 in the following respects.

[0147] In the case where vias 16 need to be formed on both sides of the marked laminate sheet 1 in the thickness direction, the above-described modified example allows the formation surface of the vias 16 and the recognition surface of the marks 4 to be on the same surface. This improves manufacturing efficiency. On the other hand, when the vias 16 are formed on one surface 9 and the marks 4 are formed on the other surface 10, that is, when the formation surface of the vias 16 and the recognition surface of the marks 4 are on different surfaces, it is necessary to turn the marked laminate sheet 1 over in the thickness direction or to recognize the marks 4 from the other side in the thickness direction, which makes the process of forming the vias 16 extremely complicated.

[0148] By changing the shape and / or the method of forming the marks 4 on one side in the thickness direction from the marks 4 on the other side, both sides of the marked laminated sheet 1 in the thickness direction can be easily and reliably recognized.

[0149] When it is necessary to provide a large number of marks 4, it is possible to effectively utilize the space on both thickness-wise surfaces of the marked laminated sheet 1. In other words, when there is little free space on only one thickness-wise surface, the other surface can be effectively utilized.

[0150] If the positions of the marks 4 on one side in the thickness direction and the positions of the marks 4 on the other side are the same when projected in the thickness direction, but their shapes are different, two pieces of information can be obtained in a single recognition process (imaging) by using a recognition device (for example, an X-ray recognition device) that uses energy rays that pass through the marked laminated sheet 1. This improves manufacturing efficiency.

[0151] The marked laminate sheet 1 can be obtained by cutting a second marked laminate sheet (not shown) that is larger in size in a planar view than the marked laminate sheet 1. The second marked laminate sheet has a plurality of areas (not shown) that correspond to the marked laminate sheet 1 before cutting. A mark 4 is provided in each of the plurality of areas. The second marked laminate sheet (not shown) is cut using the marks 4 to obtain a plurality of individual marked laminate sheets 1. Vias 16 can be provided in each of the plurality of areas of the second marked laminate sheet (not shown). The marks 4 are read by a cutting device to identify the area corresponding to the marked laminate sheet 1, and the second marked laminate sheet (not shown) is cut into individual pieces. Both the marked laminate sheet 1 and the second marked laminate sheet (not shown) are included in the marked laminate sheet of the present invention.

[0152] The marked inductor 21 can be obtained by cutting a second marked inductor (not shown) that is larger in size in a planar view than the marked inductor 21. The second marked inductor has a plurality of areas (not shown) that correspond to the marked inductor 21 before cutting. A mark 4 is provided in each of the plurality of areas. The second marked inductor (not shown) is cut using the marks 4 to obtain a plurality of individual marked inductors 21. The marks 4 are read by a cutting device to identify the areas that correspond to the marked inductor 21, and the second marked inductor (not shown) is cut and individualized. Both the marked inductor 21 and the second marked inductor (not shown) are included in the marked inductor of the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]
