This application claims the benefit under 35 USC § 119 of Chinese Patent Application No. 2022108203136, filed on Jul. 12, 2022, in the China Intellectual Property Office, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.
The present application relates to the technical field of electronic device packaging, and in particular to a light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure and a manufacturing method thereof.
With the development of the electronic industry, electronic products are increasingly trending towards high integration, multifunction, high performance, and miniaturization. Therefore, embedded package substrates that can provide multiple device layouts are becoming increasingly dominant. Moreover, in an embedded packaging structure, metal wires are usually used as the transmission medium of data signals. However, metal wires have many limitations, for example, metal wires have limited conductivity affected by the material, and it is difficult to improve the signal transmission speed by increasing the conductivity; in the process of signal transmission, metal wires are vulnerable to external and mutual electromagnetic interference, especially in high-frequency transmission, so additional shielding measures are needed, and such shielding protection measures cause considerable difficulties for circuit design; in addition, metal wires transmit analog signals, which need to be converted during digital processing, making it prone to distortion.
In order to improve the above limitations of metal wires, a method for using optical signals to replace electrical signals for signal transmission is developed. The most obvious effect is that the optical signal is hardly interfered with by electromagnetic waves. So the signal transmission quality is good and the situations of signal transmission distortion can be reduced; also, the design of the electromagnetic shielding structure can be reduced. Therefore, optical signal transmission has become the direction of future development, and embedding a light-emitting photosensitive sensor for optical communication into a package is an inevitable choice to realize its miniaturization and integration.
The light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure in the prior art is generally provided with a transparent material on the light-emitting photosensitive sensor to form a package, but the photosensitive luminescence direction of the light-emitting photosensitive sensor is difficult to control. As it has no directionality, it cannot satisfy the requirement of having light direction selectivity.
In view of this, an aspect of this application is to propose a light-emitting photosensitive sensor packaging element and a manufacturing method.
An aspect of the present application provides a manufacturing method for a light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure, including the following steps:
In some embodiments, in step (b), the height of the light-shield frame exceeds that of the light-emitting photosensitive sensor installed in the cavity.
In some embodiments, the cutting line of the light-shield frame intersects with the light transmission channel.
In some embodiments, in step (d), the transparent packaging layer is arc-shaped.
In some embodiments, in step (e), the first line layer is connected to a second line layer on the back face of the package substrate via a conducting post penetrating through the package substrate.
In some embodiments, step (c) further comprises:
In some embodiments, the cross-section of the light transmission channel is groove-shaped.
In some embodiments, the material of the transparent packaging layer is an optically clear resin (OCR) glue or an optically clear adhesive (OCA) glue.
In some embodiments, the material of the light-shielding layer is chromium, chromium oxide, or black resin.
Embodiments of the present application also provide a light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure prepared by using the manufacturing method for a light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure as previously described.
The embodiments of the present application also provide a light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure, including
In some embodiments, the height of the light-shield frame exceeds that of the light-emitting photosensitive sensor installed in the cavity.
In some embodiments, the transparent packaging layer is arc-shaped.
In some embodiments, the first line layer is connected to a second line layer on the back face of the package substrate via a conducting post penetrating through the package substrate.
In some embodiments, the light-emitting photosensitive sensor is mounted on the first heat dissipation layer of the package substrate;
It can be seen from the above that the light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure and manufacturing method thereof provided in the present application form a light-shield environment around the light-emitting photosensitive sensor and transmit light only through a light transmission channel, so that the light-emitting photosensitive sensor can only emit and receive light along the light transmission channel, and has a fixed light emitting and receiving direction along the light transmission channel, thereby achieving the effect of selective light direction.
In order to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application or in the related art more clearly, the following will briefly introduce the drawings that need to be used in the description of the embodiments or the related art. Obviously, the drawings in the following description are merely embodiments of the present application. For those of ordinary skills in the art, other drawings can be obtained according to these drawings without involving inventive efforts.
In order to make the purpose, technical solution, and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.
It needs to be noted that, unless otherwise defined, technical or scientific terms used in the embodiments of the present application shall have the general meaning as understood by one of ordinary skills in the art to which the present application belongs. The “first”, “second”, and similar words used in the embodiments of the present application do not denote any order, quantity, or importance, but are only used to distinguish different constituent parts. Similar words such as “including” or “containing” mean that the element or object appearing before the word covers the element or object listed appearing after the word and its equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. Similar terms such as “connection” or “connected” are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but can include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect. “Up”, “down”, “left”, “right”, etc. are only used to represent the relative position relationship. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative position relationship can also change accordingly.
Some light-emitting photosensitive sensor structures have no directionality for light, e.g., light can be emitted or received to/from both the upper side and the periphery simultaneously. It is unable to meet the requirements such as fixed-directional light emitting and receiving.
Based on this, the embodiments of the present application provide a manufacturing method for a light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure, which can solve the problem of non-directionality of emitting and receiving light of the light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure to a certain extent.
Referring to
The light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure 10 provided in the embodiments of the present application can transmit light only through the light transmission channel 211 by forming a light-shield environment around the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310, so that the light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure 10 can only emit and receive light along the light transmission channel, and has a fixed light emitting and receiving direction along the light transmission channel 211, thereby achieving the effect of selective light direction.
In some embodiments, with reference to
The first line layer 420 includes a first heat dissipation layer 450, and the second line layer 410 includes a second heat dissipation layer 460; the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310 can be mounted on the first heat dissipation layer 450 by, for example, a heat conductive adhesive; the first heat dissipation layer 450 can be connected to the second heat dissipation layer 460 via a heat conducting post 470 penetrating through the package substrate 100, so that the heat generated by the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310 can be dissipated to outside of the package substrate. The terminal face of the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310 can be connected to the first line layer 420 via a wire 311, and electrically connected to the second line layer 410 via a conducting post 430.
Based on the same inventive concept, the present application also provides a manufacturing method for a light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure 10 corresponding to the light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure 10 of any of the embodiments described above.
Referring to
The manufacturing method for a light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure includes the following steps: preparing a package substrate 100-step (a). As shown in
The package substrate 100 can be formed by a conventional patterning method, which will not be described in detail herein.
Then, as shown in
Next, in step (b), a light transmission channel 211 can be formed on the light-shield frame 210, and the light transmission channel 211 can extend beyond the cut line of the light-shield frame, as shown in
The light transmission channel 211 can form into a groove shape by a simple milling operation, as shown in
Next, in step (c), the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310 is mounted on the package substrate 100 such that the terminal of the light-emitting photosensitive sensor is electrically connected to the first line layer 420, as shown in
Specifically, a back surface or a heat dissipation surface of the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310 can be fixedly mounted on the first heat dissipation layer 450 by, for example, a thermally conductive adhesive, so that the heat generated during operation of the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310 can be conducted to the second heat dissipation layer 460 through the first heat dissipation layer 450 via the heat conducting post 470 for heat dissipation. The second heat dissipation layer 460 can also be connected to an external heat sink to further improve heat dissipation efficiency.
Then, in step (d), the transparent packaging layer 400 is formed on the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310 while the light transmission channel 211 is filled so that the transparent packaging layer 400 fills the light transmission channel 211. The transparent packaging layer 400 can cover a portion of the light-shield frame 210, so that the transparent packaging layer 400 having a certain radian can be formed. That is, the transparent packaging layer 400 forms a cambered transparent packaging layer 400 at the side remote from the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310, as shown in
The transparent encapsulating material of the transparent packaging layer 400 can be OCR (Optical Clear Resin) glue or OCA (Optically Clear Adhesive) glue. The OCR glue and OCA glue are glue solutions, which are colorless and transparent with high light transmittance and good bonding strength, can be cured under normal temperature, medium temperature, or UV conditions with low cure shrinkage rate, resistance to yellowing, and like features.
Next, in step (e), a light-shield layer 500 is formed on the transparent packaging layer 400, as shown in
The light-shield layer 500 is made of chromium, chromium oxide, black resin, or the like. For example, when the material of the light-shield layer 500 is chromium, the light-shield layer 500 is an opaque metal film that has reflectivity to light. In this way, when the intensity of the light transmitted from the light transmission channel 211 is weak, the light entering the cavity along the light transmission channel 211 can be converged at the light-emitting photosensitive sensor 310 by being reflected by the light-shield layer 500, thereby increasing the intensity of the light.
Finally, in step (g), cutting is performed along a cutting line 710 of the light-shield frame 210 to obtain a light-emitting photosensitive sensor structure 10 with a directional light transmission channel, as shown in
