Description
本發明涉及一種電鍍方法,特別是超音波高速電鍍方法。 The invention relates to an electroplating method, especially a high-speed ultrasonic electroplating method.
近年來,各種電子產品的設計日漸趨於薄、輕及多功能化,使得印刷電路板需藉由提高配線層的配線密度或者將配線層堆疊成多層的方式提高印刷電路板的密度。 In recent years, the design of various electronic products has gradually become thinner, lighter and more versatile, making the printed circuit board need to increase the density of the printed circuit board by increasing the wiring density of the wiring layer or stacking the wiring layers into multiple layers.
在堆疊配線層以形成多層式印刷電路板的設計中,每一配線層之間於接點處需相互連接以產生電氣導通,而為了達成互連導通之目的,可透過一些製造方式,例如:以雷射鑽孔或機械鑽孔方式在互連部位形成導通孔,再利用填充電鍍方法在導通孔上形成可電氣導通的電鍍層,或者以電鍍製程在某一配線層的互連部位產生實心導電柱,再透過銲接方式連接另一配線層。 In the design of stacking wiring layers to form a multilayer printed circuit board, each wiring layer needs to be connected to each other at the contact point to produce electrical conduction, and in order to achieve the purpose of interconnection and conduction, some manufacturing methods can be adopted, such as: Form a via hole in the interconnection part by laser drilling or mechanical drilling, and then use a filling plating method to form an electrically conductive plating layer on the via hole, or generate a solid in the interconnection part of a wiring layer by an electroplating process The conductive post is connected to another wiring layer by soldering.
現今,在印刷電路板上進行電鍍製程,主要利用低電流密度(例如:0.5~3A/dm2)進行電鍍,但存在有電鍍時間較久的問題。有鑑於此,便有提高電流密度以進行電鍍的概念(即高速電鍍)被提出,其主要目的是縮短電鍍時間。然而,高速電鍍所生成的金屬沉積物的微結構會有均勻度的問題,例如:晶粒大小不均勻。請參閱「第1圖」,「第1圖」為習知高速電鍍生成的銅柱之掃描式電子顯微鏡影像,從圖式中可知高速電鍍所生成的銅柱存在有晶粒 大小不均勻的問題。此外,高速電鍍生成的金屬沉積物於其上層會出現較小晶粒,較小的晶粒代表具有更多的晶界,且晶界會包裹雜質,晶界數量變多也就代表包括更多的雜質,從而降低導通界面的特性。 At present, the plating process on the printed circuit board mainly uses low current density (for example: 0.5~3A/dm 2 ) for plating, but there is a problem that the plating time is longer. In view of this, the concept of increasing current density for electroplating (ie high-speed electroplating) has been proposed, and its main purpose is to shorten the electroplating time. However, the microstructure of the metal deposits generated by high-speed electroplating has uniformity issues, such as uneven grain size. Please refer to "Picture 1". "Picture 1" is a scanning electron microscope image of copper pillars formed by conventional high-speed electroplating. It can be seen from the figure that the copper pillars generated by high-speed electroplating have the problem of uneven grain size . In addition, the metal deposits generated by high-speed electroplating will have smaller grains on the upper layer. The smaller grains represent more grain boundaries, and the grain boundaries will wrap impurities, and the increase in the number of grain boundaries means more. Impurities, thereby reducing the characteristics of the conduction interface.
綜上所述,可知先前技術中存在高速電鍍所生成的微結構不均勻問題,因此實有必要提出改進的技術手段,來解決此一問題。 To sum up, it can be known that there is a problem of uneven microstructure generated by high-speed electroplating in the prior art, so it is necessary to propose improved technical means to solve this problem.

請參閱「第2圖」與「第3B圖」,由於要在基板200的待鍍層210上形成金屬導電柱50而非在待鍍層210上鍍金屬膜,因此,在步驟120中,可先透過壓膜機將乾膜光阻60均勻貼附於待鍍層210上,在本實施例中,乾膜光阻60可為負型乾膜光阻,然後依據使用者對於金屬導電柱50的外型(即金屬導電柱50的底面積形狀)需求使用對應形狀的光罩對乾膜光阻60進行曝光顯影製程(即圖案化乾膜光阻60),使受到感光的乾膜光阻60會發生聚合作用而硬化,未感光的乾膜光阻60則為原來的單體分子而被顯影液所洗掉,而得到忠實於光罩形狀之乾膜影像轉移,建構出所需的金屬導電柱50外型(即金屬導電柱50的底面積形狀),但本實施例並非用以限定本發明,舉例而言,乾膜光阻60可為正型乾膜光阻,使得對乾膜光阻60進行曝光顯影製程時,受到感光的乾膜光阻60會發生分解作用而被顯影液所洗掉,而得到忠實於光罩形狀之乾膜影像轉移,建構出所需的金屬導電柱50外型(即金屬導電柱50的底面積形狀)。此外,由於金屬導電柱50的高度小於或等於乾膜光阻60貼附於待鍍層210上的高度Q,因此,透過壓膜機將乾膜光阻60均勻貼附於待鍍層210上時,需注意乾膜光阻60均勻貼附於待鍍層210上的高度Q是否符合使用者的需求(即乾膜光阻60均勻貼附於待鍍層210上的高度需大於或等於使用者欲在待鍍層210上電鍍生成金屬導電柱50的高度Q)。

Please refer to "Figure 2", the pre-processing procedure described in
接著,請參閱「第2圖」、「第3C圖」與「第3D圖」,將經過乾膜光阻曝光顯影製程(即步驟120)與以預處理程序進行清洗(即步驟130)後之具有待鍍層210與圖案化乾膜光阻60的基板200配置於具有金屬離子的電鍍液30中(即步驟140),開啟超音波震盪裝置10震盪電鍍液30,並透過電源供應裝置20先以電流密度為0.5~5A/dm2進行預鍍程序,再以電流密度為6~100A/dm2進行高速電鍍程序(即步驟150),即進行超音波高速電鍍,而於未有乾膜光阻60覆蓋的待鍍層210上形成金屬導電柱50(即步驟160)。在執行步驟140時,需將具有待鍍層210與圖案化乾膜光阻60的基板200配置於陰極的位置,而陽極的位置可配置有溶解性陽極(即用於補充電鍍液中所消耗的金屬離子)或不溶性陽極(例如:鈦網、銥/鉭氧化物複合陽極),在本實施例中,陽極的材質可為
但不限於銥/鉭氧化物複合不溶性陽極。此外,由於在本實施例中欲進行雙面電鍍,因此,具有待鍍層210與圖案化乾膜光阻60的基板200所配置的位置可位於電鍍槽的中央位置,電鍍槽的兩側可配置有兩個陽極。在本實施例中,電鍍液30中的金屬離子可選自於由銀離子、金離子、鎳離子、鈷離子、鈀離子與銅離子所構成的群組,可依據預計生成的金屬導電柱50之材質進行調整。在進行超音波高速電鍍過程中(即步驟150),電源供應裝置20可先透過電流密度0.5~5A/dm2進行預鍍,然後再調高電流密度(即電流密度為6~100A/dm2)進行高速電鍍,進而縮短電鍍所需時間。

高度(單位:μm),j為電流密度(單位:A/dm2),t為電鍍時間(單位:分鐘),η為電流效率,M為分子量(單位:g/mol),z為該金屬的價數(即每一個金屬離子中被轉移的電子數),F為法拉第常數(即96485C/mol),ρ為電解液的密度,因此可依據電流密度與預計電鍍生成的金屬導電柱50高度推算出電鍍所需的時間。在本實施例中,預計電鍍生成的金屬導電柱50的高度可為130μm~200μm,舉例而言,預計電鍍生成的金屬導電柱50可為銅柱,其高度可為168μm時,透過上述法拉第定律可知其對應的公式為δ=0.22×j×t,因此可先透過電流密度為3A/dm2進行預鍍約15分鐘,以生成10μm的銅柱;再透過電流密度為5A/dm2進行電鍍約9分鐘,以生成10μm的銅柱(此時,銅柱的高度為20μm);接著再透過電流密度為12A/dm2進行電鍍約56分鐘,以生成148μm的銅柱(此時,銅柱的高度為168μm)。
As we know through Faraday's law , Δ is the height of the metal conductive column 50 (unit: μm), j is the current density (unit: A/dm 2 ), t is the plating time (unit: minute), η is the current efficiency, M is the molecular weight (unit: g /mol), z is the valence of the metal (ie, the number of electrons transferred in each metal ion), F is the Faraday constant (ie, 96485C/mol), and ρ is the density of the electrolyte, so it can be based on the current density and prediction The metal

此外,由於當電鍍液30的溫度低於25℃時,電鍍生成電鍍層的成長過慢,而當電鍍液30的溫度高於30℃時,則易產生添加劑不穩定的狀況,因此,在本實施例中,高速電鍍方法還可包含:透過溫控裝置控制電鍍液的溫度為25~30℃(未繪製)。

The steps of the high-speed electroplating method may include: providing a substrate with a layer to be plated on the surface of the substrate (step 110); The dry film photoresist is overlaid on the layer to be plated, and the dry film photoresist is patterned (step 120); the substrate is cleaned with a pretreatment procedure (step 130); the substrate is placed in a plating solution with metal ions (step 140) ; Turn on the ultrasonic oscillating device to oscillate the electroplating solution, turn on the jet device to stir the electroplating solution, and conduct the pre-plating process with the current density of 0.5~5A/dm 2 through the power supply device, and then with the current density of 6~100A/dm 2 High-speed electroplating process (step 350); forming metal conductive pillars on the layer to be plated not covered by the dry film photoresist (step 160); and removing the dry film photoresist covered on the layer to be plated (step 170).

由「第7A圖」可知,利用「第2圖」之高速電鍍方法所生成的銅柱其晶粒大小較為均勻,解決了習知高速電鍍生成的銅柱具有晶粒大小不均勻且其上層區域會出現較小晶粒之問題。由於超音波的空化作用(cavitation),可以使電鍍液更充分的進入孔(即圖案化乾膜光阻與待鍍層所形成的凹槽)內,即時補充銅離子與添加劑等,使孔內傳質增強,所以利用「第2圖」之高速電鍍方法所生成的銅柱其晶粒大小較為均勻。而由「第7B圖」可知,利用「第5圖」之高速電鍍方法所生成的銅柱除了晶粒大小較為均勻之外,還解決了利用「第2圖」之高速電鍍方法所生成的銅柱所具有的頸縮(necking)之問題,進而提升整體銅柱的機械特性。 It can be seen from "Figure 7A" that the copper pillars generated by the high-speed plating method of "Figure 2" have a relatively uniform grain size, which solves the problem that the copper pillars generated by the conventional high-speed plating have uneven grain size and the upper region There will be problems with smaller grains. Due to the cavitation of ultrasound, the plating solution can be more fully entered into the hole (ie, the groove formed by the patterned dry film photoresist and the layer to be plated), and copper ions and additives can be replenished in real time to make the hole pass through. The quality is enhanced, so the grain size of the copper pillars generated by the high-speed electroplating method of "Figure 2" is relatively uniform. It can be seen from "Picture 7B" that the copper pillars generated by the high-speed plating method of "Picture 5" not only have a relatively uniform grain size, but also solve the copper generated by the high-speed plating method of "Picture 2" The problem of the necking (necking) of the column, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the overall copper column.

The hardness of the copper pillars generated by the high-speed electroplating method of "Figure 5" can be about 2.0GPa to 2.2GPa, and the Young's modulus can be about 98.9GPa to 105.6GPa, the stiffness can be about 2.48×10 5 N/m to 2.61×10 5 N/m, and the hardness of copper pillars produced by conventional high-speed electroplating can be about 1.6GPa to 1.7GPa, Yang The modulus can be about 91.8GPa to 104.6GPa, and the rigidity can be about 2.16×10 5 N/m to 2.57×10 5 N/m. Therefore, it can be seen that the copper pillars generated by the high-speed plating method of "Figure 5" The mechanical properties are higher than those of copper pillars produced by conventional high-speed electroplating.
