Description

Copper paste for large-area preparation and preparation method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of printing, in particular to copper paste for large-area preparation and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Printing electronics is an emerging technology that combines traditional printing techniques with electronic manufacturing techniques, and is the science and technology of manufacturing electronic devices and systems using traditional printing techniques. Compared with the traditional electronic manufacturing technology, the method comprises the following steps: for vacuum evaporation, photolithography, and the like, the printed electronics technology can greatly simplify the manufacturing process, and a patterned functional layer can be obtained by an additive manufacturing method. Therefore, the greatest features and advantages of printed electronics are low cost, low pollution, large area, high throughput, and the like. Among the printable materials, the printable conductive material (commonly referred to as conductive ink) plays a very important role in electronic devices because it can be used as an electrode, a wire, etc., and thus, its application is very wide. Therefore, the formulation of conductive inks is also the focus of research.
Among the common metal conductive inks, silver ink is the most widely used conductive ink due to its good stability and high conductivity. However, silver conductive ink/paste has two fatal disadvantages, which greatly limits the further development of silver-based conductive ink: (1) the price of silver is relatively high; (2) If the metallic silver is in a humid environment, electromigration and ion migration are particularly likely to occur, which may cause open and short circuits of the lines. The reserves of metallic copper on earth are 1000 times that of silver, so the price is only 1% of that of silver. At the same time, it exhibits very high intrinsic conductivity (slightly lower than silver and higher than gold), which is the second-ranked metal material of conductivity. And under some humid environments, ion migration of copper does not occur. Copper-based conductive inks are therefore a superior alternative to silver-based conductive inks. However, copper, as a conductive particle in the ink, cannot be used in a conventional baking manner because copper is easily oxidized to form insulating copper oxide. Thus, photonic sintering is a good solution for copper inks.
Photonic sintering is the sintering of particles using light radiation (from ultraviolet to infrared). By matching the wavelength of the emitted light with the absorption wavelength of the particles in the ink, the light energy released by the sintering equipment can be fully and effectively absorbed by the particles in the sintering process, thereby greatly improving the sintering efficiency and minimizing the influence on the substrate. The photon sintering comprises infrared sintering, ultraviolet sintering, laser sintering and pulse intense light sintering. These sintering methods have been successfully used for sintering of a variety of electronic inks. At present, the method of laser sintering and pulse strong light sintering has the advantages that the sintering speed is very high, the pulse strong light can complete the sintering only in milliseconds, and the infrared and ultraviolet sintering needs several seconds to dozens of minutes. Since the copper particles absorb light energy and convert the light energy into heat energy, the sintering mode has little damage to the substrate, and therefore, laser sintering and pulse strong light sintering are widely applied in the field of printed flexible electronics.
The xenon lamp sintering technology is one of photon sintering, and the xenon lamp sintering area is much larger than that of laser sintering, so that the xenon lamp sintering technology is more suitable for industrial large-area production. However, for copper paste, the area of a single xenon lamp sintering cannot be made large for reasons of cost and stability. Therefore, large area copper samples are basically produced by sintering and splicing small areas, for example, the xenon lamp area is 25cm x 4cm, and the sample size is 25cm x 8cm, the process can be completed by using the xenon lamp three times, and each time, the area of 25cm x 2c is exposed to secondary xenon lamp sintering. The current copper ink cannot bear secondary sintering, so that the area of a sample is very small, and the large demand of large-area sample preparation cannot be met. Therefore, it is important to develop a copper paste which can withstand the secondary xenon lamp. The reason why the secondary xenon lamp sintering cannot be endured is that the copper particles sintered for the first time are fused into a whole due to the sintering action (the base material is generally flexible PET), and the copper particles are connected to each other to be rigid due to the shrinkage of the base material caused by the heating for the second time, so that a large number of cracks are generated due to the inconsistent expansion and shrinkage of the copper and the base material.
