[Prior art] Conventionally, alumina has been used as ceramics for IC substrates. However, the heat conductivity of the conventional alumina sintered body is insufficient, so that it can sufficiently cope with an increase in the heat generation of IC chips. Is disappearing. Therefore, as a substitute for such an alumina substrate, a substrate or a heat sink using AlN having a high thermal conductivity has attracted attention, and a number of studies have been made for its practical use.

However, while having such interesting properties, the AlN sintered body has a problem in bonding strength with metal or glass. By the way, this sintered body has a metallized layer formed by applying a commercially available metallizing paste directly to the surface of the sintered body, or a thin film method of forming a thin film of active metal or metal by vapor deposition. It is common to use it in the state provided. However, it is not possible to obtain a bonding strength that can sufficiently withstand practical use by such a method, and in fact, the surface is modified by some method before or during the metallization operation, and other materials such as metal are used. It is necessary to improve the bondability with the alloy.

As a conventional method for such surface modification of the AlN sintered body, a method of forming an oxide layer by subjecting the surface of the AlN sintered body to an oxidation treatment or the like is known. That is, for example, a method of forming an oxide layer of SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , mullite, Fe 2 O 3 , CuO, or the like on the surface of the AlN sintered body. However, such an oxide layer has a good affinity for a glass layer, an alumina layer, etc., and produces a strong bond, but has a low affinity for AlN sintering itself and has a problem in reliability. it is conceivable that. It has also been proposed to directly bond a Cu plate on an AlN substrate (see JP-A-59-40404), but it has been pointed out that there is a problem in reliability against heat cycles and the like and bonding strength.

In the present invention, an AlN substrate having high thermal conductivity is used as the insulating substrate. However, the material is not limited at all, and the amount and type of the sintering aid usually added are not limited. On this AlN substrate, a surface treatment layer made of a high melting point metal is formed. As the high melting point metal, generally used Mo-based, W-based, and the like can be used. AlN is used as the method for forming the refractory metal layer.
A method of applying a paste containing a high melting point metal as a main component on an unsintered sheet, followed by firing in a non-oxidizing atmosphere of 1600 ° C. or higher, or applying a high melting point metal containing an oxide or a glass component to a fired AlN substrate, A method of firing in a non-oxidizing atmosphere at 1200 ° C. or higher is used. In any method, the high melting point metal layer is preferably not dense and has a structure having pores. It is necessary to select a condition in which the pores are present in an open state, and preferably have such a degree that they slightly absorb water, and that the adhesion to AlN is sufficiently ensured. This is because if there are no holes, the adhesive force with copper or a copper alloy is insufficient, and if there are many holes, the adhesive force with AlN is low. On the high melting point metal layer, a copper or copper alloy powder, a plate or the like is arranged in a desired shape, and then heated and adhered to a temperature higher than the melting temperature of copper or copper alloy in a non-oxidizing atmosphere. Preferably 13
Heat above 00 ° C. It is considered that adhesion is achieved by melting or partially impregnating the copper or copper alloy into the refractory metal layer.
