Description

本発明は、半導体装置に関し、特に、電気伝導性及び熱伝導性の向上した半導体装置に関する。
従来、半導体パワーモジュールの製造プロセスにおいて、基板と半導体チップを接合する際に、半田を用いることがよく知られている。
図4に、従来の半導体パワーモジュールの構造の一例を示す。従来の半導体パワーモジュールは、絶縁性基板3の表面及び裏面に金属等の導電性部材4、5が配置されており、一方の導電性部材5と半導体素子1が半田20で接合されている。一方の導電性部材5にはボンディングワイヤ6が接続され、このボンディングワイヤ6及び導電性部材4、5を介して半導体素子1への通電がなされる構成を有する。
しかし、通常の半田による接合では、半導体素子1への通電と停止を繰り返す際に熱サイクルが生じ、半田20と絶縁性基板3や半導体素子1との熱膨張係数の違いによりひずみが生じる。このことが原因でクラックが発生するおそれがあるという問題があった。
この問題の解決のために、半田で接合する代わりに、三次元網状で多孔質の金属に半田を含有させた半田接合材を介して接合することにより、ひずみの発生を低減することが開示されている(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。
特開2004−298962号公報
しかしながら、上記従来の技術においては、パワーモジュールにおけるワイヤボンディングの使用を考慮した場合、導電性部材にワイヤを接続する構造では、導電性部材を介して通電し、また除熱をすることになるため、電気伝導性及び熱伝導性を向上させることが困難であるといった問題があった。
本発明の目的は、電気伝導性及び熱伝導性が向上し、軽量化が可能となる半導体装置を提供することにある。
上記目的を達成するための本発明の一態様によれば、絶縁性基板と、前記絶縁性基板上に、内部に複数の気孔を有する多孔質領域と金属領域を前記絶縁性基板の平面方向に隣接して、配置した金属接合部材と、前記気孔に含浸された半田材と、前記多孔質領域の表面に配置された半導体素子と、前記金属接合部材の金属領域の表面に接続されたボンディングワイヤとを備えたことを特徴とする半導体装置が提供される。
本発明の半導体装置によれば、電気伝導性及び熱伝導性が向上し、軽量化が可能となる半導体装置を提供することができる。
以下、図面を参照して本発明の実施の形態による半導体装置を説明する。以下の図面の記載において、同一又は類似の部分には同一又は類似の符号を付している。ただし、図面は模式的なものであり、現実のものとは異なり、また、図面相互間においても互いの寸法の関係や比率が異なる部分が含まれていることに留意すべきである。
[第1の実施の形態]
(半導体装置の構造)
本発明の第1の実施の形態に係る半導体装置としての半導体パワーモジュールについて、図1及び図2を参照して説明する。
図1に示すように、第1の実施の形態の半導体パワーモジュールは、絶縁性基板3と、絶縁性基板3上に、内部に複数の気孔7を有する多孔質領域2aと金属領域2bを絶縁性基板3の平面方向に隣接して、配置した金属接合部材2と、気孔7に含浸された半田材8と、金属接合部材2の多孔質領域2aの表面に配置された半導体素子1と、金属接合部材2の金属領域2bの表面に接続されたボンディングワイヤ6とを備えている。
半導体素子1は、例えばIGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor)であり、一方の面側にエミッタ電極とゲート電極が形成されており、他方の面側にはコレクタ電極が形成されている。コレクタ電極は絶縁性基板3側に金属接合部材2の多孔質領域2aと接合され、エミッタ電極及びゲート電極は外部接続端子等と接続されている。
絶縁性基板3は、伝熱性の良いアルミナ等のセラミックスで構成され、上述したように絶縁性基板3の表面には半導体素子1のコレクタ電極が金属接合部材2を介して接合されている。絶縁性基板3の裏面には配線用導体パターン等を構成する導電性部材4が配置されていてもよい。更に、導電性部材4の下に、例えば銅等からなる放熱部材を配置してもよい。
金属接合部材2は金属からなり、内部に、複数の気孔7を有する多孔質領域2aと金属部分のみからなる金属領域2bが絶縁性基板3の平面方向に隣接して配置されている。金属接合部材2の厚みは、0.1〜2.0mm程度、好ましくは0.2〜1.0mm程度である。
多孔質領域2aは、半導体素子1と接合する表面を含む金属接合部材2の領域に配置され、金属領域2bは、半導体素子1と接合しない表面を含む金属接合部材2の領域に配置される。
多孔質領域2aの気孔7は互いに繋がっており、開気孔の構造を有している。気孔7の平均直径は、1〜1000μm程度、好ましくは100〜500μm程度である。気孔率は、70〜95%程度、好ましくは80〜90%程度である。
なお、気孔率は、体積と重量の測定から得られる嵩密度ρと、金属の真密度ρとから次式、気孔率(%)={1−(ρ/ρ)}×100、により算出された値をいう。
金属接合部材2の材質としては、導電性と十分な強度とを有する金属であれば、特に限定されないが、例えば銅、アルミニウム、ニッケル等からなるのがよい。
半田材8は、気孔7に含浸されている。半田材8の材質としては、鉛−錫系、錫−亜鉛系、錫−インジウム系、錫−銀−銅系等の半田を挙げることができる。
ボンディングワイヤ6は、半導体素子1のコレクタ電極に通電するための導電性部材であり、金属接合部材2の気孔率の低い領域2bの表面に接続されている。ボンディングワイヤ6の材質としては、銅、アルミニウム、金等の金属が挙げられる。
(動作原理)
本発明の第1の実施の形態に係る半導体装置の動作原理は以下の通りである。
半導体装置10は、半導体素子1のエミッタ電極及びゲート電極に接続された外部接続端子と、コレクタ電極に金属接合部材2を介して接続されたボンディングワイヤ6とに電圧が印加され、エミッタ電極、ゲート電極及びコレクタ電極に印加される電圧を制御することにより、半導体素子1が作動する。
(製造方法)
図2は、本発明の第1の実施の形態による半導体装置の製造方法を説明する図である。
本発明の第1の実施の形態に係る半導体装置の製造方法は、複数の気孔7を有する多孔質金属シート2cを形成する工程と、多孔質金属シート2cの一方の端面に、金属シート2dの一方の端面を溶接により接合して、多孔質領域2aと金属領域2bを有する金属接合部材2を形成する工程と、半田材8を金属接合部材2の気孔7に含浸させる工程と、絶縁性基板3上に金属接合部材2を形成し、半田材8を絶縁性基板3の表面に接合させる工程と、半導体素子1を金属接合部材2の多孔質領域2aの表面に形成する工程と、金属接合部材2の金属領域2bの表面にワイヤボンディングする工程とを有する。
以下に、製造工程を詳述する。
(a)まず、図2(a)に示すように、本発明の第1の実施の形態で用いられる複数の気孔7を有する多孔質金属シート2cは、以下のようにして作製することができる。
まず、銅等からなる金属の粉末を非水溶性有機溶剤からなる発泡剤を含む樹脂結合材に分散させたスラリーを調整する。
このスラリーをシート状に形成した後、分散して閉じ込められていた非水溶性有機溶剤を蒸発させる。蒸発の際、体積膨張により気孔7が多数形成され、多孔質成形体が得られる。
この多孔質成形体を乾燥した後、還元雰囲気中で焼成することにより多孔質金属シート2cを得ることができる。樹脂結合材等の樹脂は脱脂により除去する。
なお、気孔率は、多孔質金属シート2cを焼成する前に加圧及び加熱をすることにより制御することができる。
(b)次に、図2(b)に示すように、多孔質金属シート2cの一方の端面と銅等の金属からなる金属シート2dの端面とを溶接等により接合し、多孔質領域2aと金属領域2bを有する金属接合部材2を形成する。
(c)次に、図2(c)に示すように、例えば、錫−インジウムからなる半田材8を金属接合部材2の多孔質領域2aに形成されている気孔7に含浸させる。
(d)次に、図2(d)に示すように、アルミナ等からなる絶縁性基板3の裏面にスパッタリング等により銅等からなる導電性部材4を形成する。
この絶縁性基板3の表面に金属接合部材2を形成し、半田材8の酸化膜形成を防ぐために、例えばギ酸等の還元雰囲気中で、半田材8を絶縁性基板3の表面に接合させることにより、金属接合部材2と絶縁性基板3とを接合する。
(e)次に、図2(e)に示すように、半導体素子1を金属接合部材2の多孔質領域2aの表面に形成する。
(f)最後に、金属接合部材2の金属領域2bの表面にワイヤボンディングして、図1に示す半導体装置10が完成する。
このような半導体装置10は、金属接合部材2が多孔質領域2aと金属領域2b間で金属材により電気的に接続しているため、金属接合部材2の金属領域2b、つまり半田材8を含有しない金属領域にワイヤボンディングすることにより、従来のように導電性部材及び半田を介してワイヤボンディングする必要がなくなり、電気伝導性を向上させることが可能となる。
また、金属接合部材2が絶縁性基板3に直接接合しているので、半田材8からの伝熱に加えて、金属接合部材2の金属材からも絶縁性基板3に伝熱するため、半導体素子1への通電等により発生する熱を効率よく絶縁性基板3側に放熱することができる。
また、従来のように半田接合材と絶縁性基板間に導電性部材を配置しないので、半導体装置の軽量化が可能となる。
本発明の第1の実施の形態に係る半導体装置によれば、電気伝導性及び熱伝導性が向上し、軽量化が可能となる。

導電性部材5の材質としては、導電性を有するものであれば、特に限定されないが、銅、アルミニウム、ニッケル等の金属が挙げられる。

第2の実施の形態に係る半導体装置の製造方法において、導電性部材5を絶縁性基板3の表面にスパッタリング等により形成することにより、半導体装置10Aを製造することができる。
導電性部材5は、金属接合部材2の半田材8と接合するので、半田が金属からなる導電性部材5と接合しやすくなり、導電性部材5と金属接合部材2とを良好に接合することができる。

本発明の第3の実施の形態に係る半導体装置によれば、電気伝導性及び熱伝導性が向上し、軽量化が可能となる。
