Definitions
- the present invention relates to composite monolithic electronic components comprising a sintered laminate formed by stacking and baking unsintered material layers composed of various types of materials. Specifically, the present invention relates to a composite monolithic electronic component provided in its interior with a passive device such as a capacitor and an inductor.
- insulative ceramic substrates are widely used for mounting various electronic components constituting electronic circuits in order to meet the demand for smaller electronic devices.
- a substrate combining various types of materials, more particularly, a substrate comprising a dielectric layer having a relatively high dielectric coefficient and a functional layer, such as a magnetic layer having different permeability or a resistance layer having a different resistance, is desired since such a structure is capable of accommodating a passive element such as a capacitor, an inductor and/or a resistor, in an improved manner.
- the aforementioned monolithic ceramic substrate comprising the low-dielectric-coefficient ceramic layers are mainly used in packages or circuit boards for mounting large-size IC chips comprising Si or Ga—As.
- the thermal expansion coefficient of the low-dielectric-coefficient insulative material constituting the ceramic layers is set to approximately the same value as the thermal expansion coefficient of the IC chip (Si: 3.6 ppm/° C., Ga—As: 6.8 ppm/° C.).
- a glass such as borosilicate glass, borosilicate lead glass, lead silicate glass or the like
- a ceramic material such as alumina, cordierite, mullite or the like
- a multichip-module-type mounting substrate that is, the circuit board (package) provided with a plurality of bare chips, will be more widely used as a high-density mounting module in the near future.
- solder is used as an I/O interface to provide bonding.
- An interface portion (land portion) at which the flip chip contacts the mounting substrate is formed into a slope by a material having mechanical characteristics between that of the solder and that of each material.
- an underfill material is provided after bonding in order to alleviate stresses.
- a conductive adhesive may be used to form the I/O termination in order to alleviate stresses.
- the thermal expansion coefficient of most of the high-dielectric-coefficient material constituting the dielectric layer having a relatively high dielectric coefficient in the above-described substrate combining various materials, except for PbO-based perovskite materials is 8 ppm/° C. or more.
- the PbO-based perovskite material contains large amounts of PbO and is hazardous to the environment.
- the thermal expansion coefficient of most of the magnetic materials, i.e., ferrite, constituting the magnetic layer having different permeability is also 8 ppm/° C. or more.
- This invention is directed to a composite monolithic electronic component comprising: a laminate having a base layer which is a low-dielectric-coefficient layer having a relative dielectric coefficient of about 10 or less and a functional layer which is a magnetic layer and/or a high-dielectric-coefficient layer having a relative dielectric coefficient of about 15 or more; and interconnecting conductors provided for the laminate.
- the laminate and the interconnecting conductors are simultaneously baked.
- a low-dielectric-coefficient material having a high-thermal-expansion-coefficient is needed as the material of the base layer in the composite monolithic electronic component.
- the low-dielectric-coefficient material is also required to have mechanical strength.
- One way to meet these needs is to use a crystallized glass having a relatively high mechanical strength in the base layer.
- dispersion from/to various types of materials i.e., dispersion between the base layer and the functional layer, and wetting between the materials included in the base layers occurs, thereby causing a failure to obtain the desired crystallized substances.
- a crystallized glass which allows a desired crystal phase having a high-thermal expansion-coefficient to precipitate efficiently is needed.
- the base layer contains a crystallized glass comprising SiO 2 , MgO, Al 2 O 3 and B 2 O 3 , and an oxide ceramic having a thermal expansion coefficient of about 6.0 ppm/° C. or more.
- the functional layer contains an amorphous glass having a softening point of about 800° C. or less.
- a bondability is obtained by the crystallized glass contained in the base layer and the amorphous glass contained in the functional layer.
- the base layer and the functional layer be sintered at a low temperature of about 1,000° C. or less, but also residual stresses can be disregarded above the glass distortion point.
- residual stresses can be significantly decreased compared to a solid-state-reaction bonding if the thermal expansion coefficients of these layers at the time of the bonding are the same.
- the weight of SiO 2 , MgO and Al 2 O 3 contained in the crystallized glass lies in the region defined by point A (44.0, 55.0, 1.0), point B (34.5, 64.5, 1.0), point C (35.0, 30.0, 35.0) and point D (44.5, 30.0, 25.5) in a ternary diagram illustrated in FIG. 2.
- the crystallized glass preferably contains about 2 to 20 parts by weight of B 2 O 3 compared to 100 parts by weight of SiO 2 , MgO and Al 2 O 3 in total.
- the weight of SiO 2 , MgO and Al 2 O 3 contained in the crystallized glass lies in the region defined by point A (44.0, 55.0, 1.0), point B (34.5, 64.5, 1.0), point E (35.0, 45.0, 20.0) and point F (44.5, 35.5, 20.0) in the ternary diagram of FIG. 2.
- the relationship between residual stresses and the sintering temperature during the sintering of the base layer and the functional layer is primarily defined by the glass viscosity, which is typically indicated by the glass softening point, and wettability between the glass and the dielectric/magnetic material.
- the glass viscosity greatly affects interdiffusion and the diffusion of the material constituting the interconnecting conductors when the different types of materials are bonded by sintering. Accordingly, when selecting a glass to be contained in the composite material comprising ceramic and glass, it is important to consider not only the residual stresses but also interdiffusion distances and electrical characteristics. Moreover, even if the temperature at which the residual stresses start to work is lowered, the alleviation of the stress may be limited depending on the combination of the thermal expansion coefficients of the ceramic and the glass and the difference in the Young coefficients thereof.
- the base layer preferably has a crystal phase, such as forsterite and/or enstatite, having a high thermal expansion coefficient which is approximately the same as the thermal expansion coefficient of the high-dielectric-coefficient material such as BaTiO 3 . In this manner, the residual stresses can be reduced below the glass distortion point.
- a crystal phase such as forsterite and/or enstatite
- the functional layer has a thermal expansion coefficient of about 7 ppm/° C. or more, which is approximately the same with the thermal expansion coefficient of the base layer.
- the interconnecting conductors may be made of at least one material selected from the group consisting of elemental Ag, an Ag—Pt alloy, an Ag—Pd alloy, elemental Au, elemental Ni and elemental Cu, since the composite monolithic electronic component of the present invention can be sintered at a temperature of about 1,000° C. or less.

Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to composite monolithic electronic components comprising a sintered laminate formed by stacking and baking unsintered material layers composed of various types of materials. Specifically, the present invention relates to a composite monolithic electronic component provided in its interior with a passive device such as a capacitor and an inductor.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Generally, insulative ceramic substrates are widely used for mounting various electronic components constituting electronic circuits in order to meet the demand for smaller electronic devices.
- In order to further increase the mounting density and to withstand higher frequencies, a monolithic ceramic substrate prepared by baking a green laminate comprising a plurality of stacked ceramic green sheets, each of which is a low-dielectric-coefficient insulative ceramic layer having the relative dielectric coefficient of 15 or less, and interconnecting conductors composed of a conductive paste containing a low-resistance conductive substance such as Ag, Ag—Pd, Cu, Au or the like, which are patterned into a predetermined shape and which are provided on each of the ceramic green sheets, has been developed.
- In order to further increase the mounting density from that of the substrate comprising the above-described low-dielectric-coefficient insulative ceramic layers, a substrate combining various types of materials, more particularly, a substrate comprising a dielectric layer having a relatively high dielectric coefficient and a functional layer, such as a magnetic layer having different permeability or a resistance layer having a different resistance, is desired since such a structure is capable of accommodating a passive element such as a capacitor, an inductor and/or a resistor, in an improved manner.
- The aforementioned monolithic ceramic substrate comprising the low-dielectric-coefficient ceramic layers are mainly used in packages or circuit boards for mounting large-size IC chips comprising Si or Ga—As. In order to prevent the interface between the IC chip and the monolithic ceramic substrate from becoming defective due to thermal stresses, the thermal expansion coefficient of the low-dielectric-coefficient insulative material constituting the ceramic layers is set to approximately the same value as the thermal expansion coefficient of the IC chip (Si: 3.6 ppm/° C., Ga—As: 6.8 ppm/° C.).
- In this respect, a composite material in which a glass such as borosilicate glass, borosilicate lead glass, lead silicate glass or the like, is added to a ceramic material such as alumina, cordierite, mullite or the like, is used as the low-dielectric-coefficient insulative material. Thus, it becomes possible to set the thermal expansion coefficient of the low-dielectric-coefficient insulative material to approximately the same value as that of the IC chip and to sinter the material at a temperature of 1,000° C. or less.
- A multichip-module-type mounting substrate, that is, the circuit board (package) provided with a plurality of bare chips, will be more widely used as a high-density mounting module in the near future. Presently, when a flip chip is mounted on the mounting substrate, solder is used as an I/O interface to provide bonding. An interface portion (land portion) at which the flip chip contacts the mounting substrate is formed into a slope by a material having mechanical characteristics between that of the solder and that of each material. Moreover, an underfill material is provided after bonding in order to alleviate stresses. Alternatively, a conductive adhesive may be used to form the I/O termination in order to alleviate stresses.
- In view of the above, the problem of defects due to thermal stresses at the interface between the IC chip and the monolithic ceramic substrate has been already solved.
- In contrast, the thermal expansion coefficient of most of the high-dielectric-coefficient material constituting the dielectric layer having a relatively high dielectric coefficient in the above-described substrate combining various materials, except for PbO-based perovskite materials, is 8 ppm/° C. or more. The PbO-based perovskite material contains large amounts of PbO and is hazardous to the environment. The thermal expansion coefficient of most of the magnetic materials, i.e., ferrite, constituting the magnetic layer having different permeability is also 8 ppm/° C. or more.
- The problems caused by the thermal stresses created when a passive element composed of a high-dielectric-coefficient material or a magnetic material, such as a capacitor or an inductor, is vertically or horizontally provided inside the monolithic substrate is more serious than problem created by the thermal stress between the IC chip and the mounting substrate. To be more specific, when the monolithic ceramic substrate is composed of various types of materials, the interface at which the different types of materials come into contact with each other is large compared to the interface between the IC chip and the substrate, and it is difficult to release the thermal stresses since the interface is located inside the monolithic ceramic substrate.
- As a result, defects such as cracks which result from differences in thermal expansion coefficients, are likely to occur at the interfaces between the various different materials even when there is no defect at the IC chip.
- Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a composite monolithic electronic component comprising a combination of different types of materials which overcomes the above-described problems.
- This invention is directed to a composite monolithic electronic component comprising: a laminate having a base layer which is a low-dielectric-coefficient layer having a relative dielectric coefficient of about 10 or less and a functional layer which is a magnetic layer and/or a high-dielectric-coefficient layer having a relative dielectric coefficient of about 15 or more; and interconnecting conductors provided for the laminate. The laminate and the interconnecting conductors are simultaneously baked.
- In order to solve the above-described technical problems, a low-dielectric-coefficient material having a high-thermal-expansion-coefficient is needed as the material of the base layer in the composite monolithic electronic component. The low-dielectric-coefficient material is also required to have mechanical strength.
- One way to meet these needs is to use a crystallized glass having a relatively high mechanical strength in the base layer. However, when the crystallized glass is used in the base layer, dispersion from/to various types of materials, i.e., dispersion between the base layer and the functional layer, and wetting between the materials included in the base layers occurs, thereby causing a failure to obtain the desired crystallized substances. A crystallized glass which allows a desired crystal phase having a high-thermal expansion-coefficient to precipitate efficiently is needed.
- Therefore, according to one aspect of the present invention, the base layer contains a crystallized glass comprising SiO2, MgO, Al2O3 and B2O3, and an oxide ceramic having a thermal expansion coefficient of about 6.0 ppm/° C. or more. The functional layer contains an amorphous glass having a softening point of about 800° C. or less.
- In this composite monolithic electronic component, a bondability is obtained by the crystallized glass contained in the base layer and the amorphous glass contained in the functional layer. When bonding is achieved in this manner, not only can the base layer and the functional layer be sintered at a low temperature of about 1,000° C. or less, but also residual stresses can be disregarded above the glass distortion point. By using a low-softening-point glass, the stresses occurring at the bonding interfaces (residual stresses) can be significantly decreased compared to a solid-state-reaction bonding if the thermal expansion coefficients of these layers at the time of the bonding are the same.
- Preferably, the weight of SiO2, MgO and Al2O3 contained in the crystallized glass lies in the region defined by point A (44.0, 55.0, 1.0), point B (34.5, 64.5, 1.0), point C (35.0, 30.0, 35.0) and point D (44.5, 30.0, 25.5) in a ternary diagram illustrated in FIG. 2. The crystallized glass preferably contains about 2 to 20 parts by weight of B2O3 compared to 100 parts by weight of SiO2, MgO and Al2O3 in total.
- More preferably, the weight of SiO2, MgO and Al2O3 contained in the crystallized glass lies in the region defined by point A (44.0, 55.0, 1.0), point B (34.5, 64.5, 1.0), point E (35.0, 45.0, 20.0) and point F (44.5, 35.5, 20.0) in the ternary diagram of FIG. 2.
- The relationship between residual stresses and the sintering temperature during the sintering of the base layer and the functional layer is primarily defined by the glass viscosity, which is typically indicated by the glass softening point, and wettability between the glass and the dielectric/magnetic material. The glass viscosity, however, greatly affects interdiffusion and the diffusion of the material constituting the interconnecting conductors when the different types of materials are bonded by sintering. Accordingly, when selecting a glass to be contained in the composite material comprising ceramic and glass, it is important to consider not only the residual stresses but also interdiffusion distances and electrical characteristics. Moreover, even if the temperature at which the residual stresses start to work is lowered, the alleviation of the stress may be limited depending on the combination of the thermal expansion coefficients of the ceramic and the glass and the difference in the Young coefficients thereof.
- In this respect, in this invention, the base layer preferably has a crystal phase, such as forsterite and/or enstatite, having a high thermal expansion coefficient which is approximately the same as the thermal expansion coefficient of the high-dielectric-coefficient material such as BaTiO3. In this manner, the residual stresses can be reduced below the glass distortion point.
- Preferably, the functional layer has a thermal expansion coefficient of about 7 ppm/° C. or more, which is approximately the same with the thermal expansion coefficient of the base layer.
- Furthermore, the interconnecting conductors may be made of at least one material selected from the group consisting of elemental Ag, an Ag—Pt alloy, an Ag—Pd alloy, elemental Au, elemental Ni and elemental Cu, since the composite monolithic electronic component of the present invention can be sintered at a temperature of about 1,000° C. or less.

base layers - FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a
laminate 24 according to an example of the present invention. - FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a composite monolithic
electronic component 1 in accordance with an aspect of the present invention. - The composite monolithic
electronic component 1 comprises alaminate 2. Surface-mounting components laminate 2 to form a ceramic composite module. - The
laminate 2 comprisesbase layers functional layer 8 which is a high-dielectric-coefficient layer having a relative dielectric coefficient of about 15 or more and is provided between thebase layers base layers functional layer 8 is illustrated as a single layer each in FIG. 1, a plurality of low-dielectric-coefficient sublayers and a plurality of high-dielectric-coefficient sublayers are generally provided to constitute these layers. - The
laminate 2 hasinternal conductor layers hole conductors 11, andexternal conductor layers 12. Theinternal conductor layers 10 provided in thefunctional layer 8, which is the high-dielectric-coefficient layer form capacitors C1 and C2. Theinternal conductor layers hole conductors 11, and theexternal conductor layers 12 form interconnecting conductors for providing electrical connection between the surface-mounting components 3 to 5 and internal capacitors C1 and C2. - The
laminate 2 may be manufactured for example, by the following process. - First, a crystallized glass containing SiO2—MgO—Al2O3—B2O3 as the main component is prepared as the material of the base layers 6 and 7. An oxide ceramic having a thermal expansion coefficient of 6.0 ppm/° C. or more, such as alumina, is then added to the crystallized glass and is mixed therewith. An organic binder, a dispersing agent, a plasticizer, an organic solvent and the like, are added to the resulting powder mixture and are mixed to obtain a slurry for making the low-dielectric-coefficient layers. The resulting slurry is then formed into sheets by the doctor blade process to obtain ceramic green sheets for making low-dielectric-coefficient layers.
- Meanwhile, a BaO—TiO2-type dielectric material is prepared as the material for the
functional layer 8. The material is calcined at 1,000° C. for an hour and is then pulverized. An amorphous glass having a softening point of 800° C. or less such as Me2O—MaO—SiO2—CuO-type glass (wherein Me is alkali metal and Ma is alkaline earth metal) is added to the calcined and pulverized material to prepare a material mixture. An organic binder, a dispersing agent, a plasticizer, an organic solvent and the like are added to the material mixture and are mixed to make a slurry for making the high-dielectric-coefficient layer. The resulting slurry is formed into sheets by the doctor blade process to obtain ceramic green sheets for making the high-dielectric-coefficient layer. - Next, through-holes are formed in the designated resulting ceramic green sheets which are used for making the low-dielectric-coefficient layers and the high-dielectric-coefficient layer. The through-holes are filled with a conductive paste or a conductive powder to form via-
hole conductors 11. - A conductive paste is then applied, by printing, on the designated ceramic green sheets which are used for making the low-dielectric-coefficient layers and the high-dielectric-coefficient layer so as to form the
internal conductor layers external conductors 12. - Preferably, the conductive paste or the conductive powder used for forming the
internal conductor layers - Next, a predetermined number of ceramic green sheets for making the low-dielectric-coefficient layers and the high-dielectric-coefficient layer are stacked in a predetermined order and are then pressed in the stacked direction so as to form a laminate block which will be used to form the
laminate 2. If necessary, the laminate block may be cut to an appropriate size. - The resulting laminate block is sintered at a temperature in the range of about 800 to 1,000° C. to obtain the
laminate 2 shown in FIG. 1. - Finally, the surface-mounting
components laminate 2 to complete the composite monolithicelectronic component 1, which is a ceramic monolithic module. - In the composite monolithic
electronic component 1 having the above-described configuration, because the capacitors C1 and C2 are formed in thefunctional layer 8 which is the high-dielectric-coefficient layer, the capacitance of the capacitors C1 and C2 can be easily increased. In other words, the volume of the capacitors C1 and C2 can be easily decreased. As a result, the performance of the composite monolithicelectronic component 1 as the ceramic monolithic module can be easily improved and the size thereof can be easily reduced. - It is to be understood that the multi-layer configuration of the
laminate 2 of the composite monolithicelectronic component 1 shown in FIG. 1 is merely an example. Alternatively, the number of the base layers 6 and 7 and thefunctional layer 8 can be any number and the order for stacking the layers can be altered. Moreover, thefunctional layer 8 may be replaced with a magnetic material layer. In such a case, the interconnecting conductors formed in thefunctional layer 8 constitute, for example, an inductor. Furthermore, both the high-dielectric-coefficient layer and the magnetic material layer may be provided as thefunctional layers 8. - As described above, the base layers6 and 7 contain the crystallized glass containing SiO2—MgO—Al2O3-B2O3 as the main component, and a ceramic oxide, such as alumina, having a thermal expansion coefficient of about 6.0 ppm/° C. or more. The ratio of the components in the crystallized glass is preferably as follows.
- FIG. 2 is a ternary diagram showing the amounts of SiO2, MgO and Al2O3, on a weight basis, contained in the crystallized glass.
- The amounts by weight of SiO2, MgO and Al2O3 contained in the crystallized glass preferably lies in the region defined by point A (44.0, 55.0, 1.0), point B (34.5, 64.5, 1.0), point C (35.0, 30.0, 35.0) and point D (44.5, 30.0, 25.5) in the ternary diagram in FIG. 2. Preferably, the B2O3 content in the crystallized glass is about 2 to 20 parts by weight compared to the total content of SiO2, MgO and Al2O3 which is 100 parts by weight.
- More preferably, the weight of SiO2, MgO and Al2O3 lies in the region defined by point A (44.0, 55.0, 1.0), point B (34.5, 64.5, 1.0), point E (35.0, 45.0, 20.0) and point F (44.5, 35.5, 20.0) in the ternary diagram in FIG. 2.
- At least one forsterite crystal phase or enstatite crystal phase is preferably precipitated in the base layers6 and 7. Since these crystal phases have high thermal expansion coefficients, residual stresses in the base layers 6 and 7 below the glass-distortion point can be reduced.
- The thermal expansion coefficient of the
functional layer 8 is preferably about 7 ppm/° C. or more. - 1. Base Layers
- The low-dielectric-coefficient layers constituting the base layers were examined.
- First, SiO2, MgCO3, Al2O3 and H3BO3 were prepared as the starting material of the crystallized glass. The SiO2, MgCO3, Al2O3 and H3BO3 were then mixed at the weight ratios shown in Table 1. The resulting mixtures were melted to make glass melts. The glass melts were rapidly cooled by placing them into deionized water, and were then pulverized to obtain crystallized glass powders.

- Ceramic green sheets each having thickness of 0.2 mm were formed on carrier films from the above-described slurries containing the crystallized glass powders G1 to G26 shown in Table 1 by a casting method using a doctor blade. The ceramic green sheets were then dried, were separated from the carrier films and were punched to obtain ceramic green sheets having a predetermined size. A plurality of the ceramic green sheets were stacked and press-molded to obtain green ceramic compacts.
- The green ceramic compacts were heated to 950° C. at a rate of 200° C. per hour and the temperature was maintained thereat for two hours to form sintered ceramic compacts.
- The relative dielectric coefficient, insulation resistance, thermal expansion coefficient, sinterability and crystal phase of each of the resulting sintered ceramic compacts made from the sample crystallized glasses were examined.
- The relative dielectric coefficient and insulation resistance were examined as follows. Square electrodes, 8×8 mm, were formed by applying and sintering an Ag-based material on two main surfaces of a sample compact whose size was 10×10×0.5 mm. Electrostatic capacitance was measured through these electrodes using an LCR meter under the conditions of
frequency 1 MHZ,voltage 1 Vrms and a temperature of 25° C. The relative dielectric coefficient was calculated from the determined capacitance. The insulation resistance was measured 60 seconds after the application of a 50 V DC voltage. - In order to determine the thermal expansion coefficient, the sample compacts whose size was 2×2×10 mm were used and the average thermal expansion coefficient in the temperature range from 30° C. to 400° C. was measured.
- The crystal phase was examined by X-ray diffraction in order to identify the X-ray diffraction pattern in the surfaces of the sample compacts.
