- an imprinting stamper 10 a relievo pattern 12 , an insulation layer 20 , a substrate 22 , an intaglio pattern 24 , a circuit pattern 26 , an ink-jet head 30 , and conductive ink 32 .
- the imprinting stamper 10 is prepared, where the relievo pattern 12 is formed by using circuit pattern data ( 100 ). As described in the following, the imprinting stamper 10 is manufactured by etching a silicon wafer, etc., and CAD data on the circuit pattern 26 is used in the process. That is, the imprinting stamper is manufactured such that a pattern corresponding to the circuit pattern 26 is formed protruding in relievo.
- a master mold is manufactured ( 102 ).
- the master mold is a structure corresponding to a frame for manufacturing the imprinting stamper, and is manufactured by forming a pattern corresponding to the circuit pattern data in intaglio on a silicon wafer or a glass board.
- the pattern formed in intaglio on the master mold will be referred to hereinafter as the “master pattern”.
- the circuit pattern data is printed on a mask film ( 103 ), the mask film on which the circuit pattern is printed is laminated on a member such as a silicon wafer, and adequate selective etching processes are performed on the corresponding member, such as exposure, development, and etching, etc.
- the master mold according to the present embodiment is formed ( 104 ).
- molding material is stacked on the master mold such that the molding material is filled in the master pattern ( 105 ). This is to form a relievo pattern that corresponds with the master pattern on a surface of the molding material, as the molding material is shaped according to the master pattern, where the molding material thus formed to have the relievo pattern formed on its surface is to be used as an imprinting stamper.
- Methods of forming the molding material by stacking the molding material on the master mold include the methods of polymerizing a liquid monomer or a polymer precursor, stacking a polymer and heating, and filling a plating layer in the master pattern by plating the master mold, etc.
- liquid molding material is spread on the master mold such that the molding material is filled in the master pattern ( 106 a ), after which it is polymerized to be a solid polymer having a relievo pattern formed on its surface ( 107 a ).

- the transformed polymer is hardened to a solid and is formed as an imprinting stamper.
- the method of filling a plating layer in the master pattern by plating the master mold is to form the imprinting stamper, not by forming the molding material by polymerizing a polymer as in the methods described above, but by plating nickel, etc., directly on the master pattern ( 106 c ), that is, by using the plating layer as the molding material.
- the imprinting stamper may be manufactured with a material that can withstand the repetitive imprinting processes, such as nickel, etc.
- the formed molding material is separated from the master mold ( 108 ).
- the manufacture of the imprinting stamper is completed.
- the stamper manufactured by forming a polymer may not have enough strength and hardness to transfer a circuit pattern by repeating the imprinting process on the insulation layer, so by depositing a metallic plating layer on the surface of a polymer, the imprinting stamper may be given sufficient hardness. Therefore, it may be advantageous to plate the surface of the polymer with a metallic material such as nickel, etc., that can withstand repetitive imprinting processes.
- the circuit pattern 26 is printed using CAD data on a mask film, the mask film on which the circuit pattern is printed is laminated on a silicon wafer and the like, and then by selective etching only on the parts where the circuit pattern 26 is not printed, the master mold is manufactured on which an intaglio pattern is formed.
- an imprinting stamper of a polymer material may be manufactured after the monomer, polymer precursor, or polymer is coated and solidified using a master mold, or an imprinting stamper of a metallic material may be manufactured after filling a plating layer in the intaglio pattern by plating the master mold with a metallic material and separating the plating layer.
- the relievo pattern 12 includes not only the circuit pattern 26 but also the via holes, and it may be advantageous to form the intaglio pattern 24 corresponding to the circuit pattern 26 and the via holes on the insulation layer 20 simultaneously through the imprinting.
- the imprinting stamper 10 is pressed onto the insulation layer 20 , and then the intaglio pattern 24 corresponding to the relievo pattern 12 is formed on the insulation layer 20 ( 110 ).
- This “imprinting” process includes laminating the insulation layer 20 , where the intaglio pattern is to be formed, on the substrate 22 as in FIG. 5 ( a ), laminating and pressing the imprinting stamper 10 ( 112 ) as in FIG. 5 ( b ), and after the insulation layer 20 is deformed by pressing, demolding the imprinting stamper 10 ( 114 ) as in FIG. 5 ( c ), and afterwards heat-treating and hardening the insulation layer 20 ( 116 ), to form the intaglio pattern 24 on the insulation layer 20 .
- the insulation layer 20 may be heat-treated and partially hardened before demolding the imprinting stamper 10 , and post processing processes such as chemical treatment may be applied to the insulation layer 20 on which the intaglio pattern 24 is formed after demolding the imprinting stamper 10 .
- the circuit pattern 26 is formed to a required thickness by curing the conductive ink 32 ( 120 ). That is, according to the present embodiment, the thickness of the circuit pattern 26 is determined by the degree of depression in the insulation layer 20 in the imprinting process. Consequently, the thickness of the circuit pattern 26 formed on the insulation layer 20 is determined by how much the circuit pattern 26 is formed protruding from the imprinting stamper.
- Ink-jet printing is a process of ejecting the conductive ink 32 and printing the circuit pattern 26 , with ink-jet head 30 moving according to previously stored data, and thus the CAD data of the circuit pattern 26 used for forming the relievo pattern 12 on the imprinting stamper 10 described above may be used as it is for the data for driving the ink-jet head 30 .
- a printed circuit board manufactured by the manufacturing method of a printed circuit board described above is formed with the circuit pattern 26 buried in the insulation layer 20 . That is, its structure is such that the intaglio pattern 24 is formed in the insulation layer 20 in correspondence with the location where the circuit pattern 26 is formed, and the conductive ink 32 is filled in the intaglio pattern 24 to compose the circuit pattern 26 .
- the intaglio pattern 24 formed in the insulation layer 20 is formed by the imprinting process, that is, a process of pressing the imprinting stamper 10 , where the relievo pattern 12 corresponding to the circuit pattern 26 is formed, onto the insulation layer 20 , and the filling of the conductive ink 32 is conducted by the ink-jet printing method, that is, a method of injecting the conductive ink 32 with the ink-jet head 30 moving according to circuit pattern data previously stored.
- the circuit pattern CAD data used in the manufacturing of an imprinting stamper can be utilized again in the ink-jet printing process.

- The making of the master mold may include printing the circuit pattern data on a mask film, and forming the master mold by laminating the mask film on a silicon wafer or a glass board and etching selectively.

-
FIG. 1 is a flow diagram illustrating an imprinting process according to an embodiment of the present invention, andFIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating an ink-jet printing process according to an embodiment of the present invention. InFIG. 1 andFIG. 2 are illustrated animprinting stamper 10, arelievo pattern 12, aninsulation layer 20, asubstrate 22, anintaglio pattern 24, acircuit pattern 26, an ink-jet head 30, andconductive ink 32. - The present embodiment is characterized by the combination of the ink-jet printing technology with the imprinting pattern forming technology. After the pattern is imprinted to a polymer resin using an
imprinting stamper 10, that is, a stamper on which a particular pattern is protruded in relievo, theconductive ink 32 is injected in the transferredintaglio pattern 24, that is a trench, using an ink-jet printing method, to realize thecircuit pattern 26 corresponding to the particular pattern. - In imprinting technology, the various processes such as photo resist laminating, etching, drilling for forming vias, etc., used in a conventional substrate process are replaced by a single imprinting process to form a circuit pattern on a dielectrics film.
- In order to process the
fine circuit pattern 26 by imprinting technology, theimprinting stamper 10, which is a mold on which a fine pattern is processed in relievo, is stacked on theinsulation layer 20 as inFIG. 1 (a), and theimprinting stamper 10 is pressed onto theinsulation layer 20 and demolded as inFIG. 1 (b), to process a fine pattern including via holes as inFIG. 1 (c). By applying the imprinting technology as thus, thefine circuit pattern 26 may be realized, complex processes may be replaced by one process, and the costs for the processes may be reduced. - The ink-jet printing technology has usually been used in the field of office automation (OA) and industries associated with marking packing materials and printing on clothing. However, with the development of functional ink including nano metal particles such as silver and nickel, etc., its applicability has gradually expanded, and now it is applied in forming circuit patterns on printed circuit boards using functional ink that includes nano metal particles.
- That is, the circuit pattern forming technology by ink-jet printing, as illustrated in
FIG. 2 , is a method of moving the ink-jet head 30 according to thecircuit pattern 26 data inputted beforehand, by ejecting theconductive ink 32 on theinsulation layer 20 such that thecircuit pattern 26 is printed. - With the modern ink-jet method, while it is possible to print various shapes of patterns using various types of ink, there is a limit to printing the pattern to a required thickness. In particular, the metal wiring has to be formed to a thickness greater than a certain value when printing
electronic circuit patterns 26, and this is the part where many problems occur. The present embodiment enables the forming ofcircuit patterns 26 of a required thickness by combining the imprint pattern forming technology to the process of printing thecircuit pattern 26 by ink-jet printing. - The imprint method is able to realize an
intaglio pattern 24 of a required thickness on theinsulation layer 20 by means of arelievo pattern 12 formed on theimprinting stamper 10. In other words, a trench of a particular shape may be made in theinsulation layer 20. - Thus, by injecting the
conductive ink 32 using the ink-jet method into the trench formed in theinsulation layer 20 by applying the imprint method, the problems may be prevented of the spreading of thecircuit pattern 26 due to the spreading of the ink, and the distortion of the shape of thecircuit pattern 26 in the curing process due to the ink being trapped in the trench at a certain depth. - Also, the CAD (computer aided design) data of the
circuit pattern 26 used for forming theimprinting stamper 10 may be utilized as it is, in the ink-jet printing process. -
FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a manufacturing method of a printed circuit board according to an embodiment of the present invention,FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a manufacturing method of an imprinting stamper according to an embodiment of the present invention, andFIG. 5 is a flow diagram illustrating a manufacturing process of a printed circuit board according to an embodiment of the present invention. InFIG. 5 are illustrated animprinting stamper 10, arelievo pattern 12, aninsulation layer 20, asubstrate 22, anintaglio pattern 24, acircuit pattern 26, an ink-jet head 30, andconductive ink 32. - In order to manufacture the printed circuit board according to the present embodiment, first, the
imprinting stamper 10 is prepared, where therelievo pattern 12 is formed by using circuit pattern data (100). As described in the following, theimprinting stamper 10 is manufactured by etching a silicon wafer, etc., and CAD data on thecircuit pattern 26 is used in the process. That is, the imprinting stamper is manufactured such that a pattern corresponding to thecircuit pattern 26 is formed protruding in relievo. - As is illustrated in
FIG. 4 , in order to manufacture an imprinting stamper according to the present embodiment, first, a master mold is manufactured (102). The master mold is a structure corresponding to a frame for manufacturing the imprinting stamper, and is manufactured by forming a pattern corresponding to the circuit pattern data in intaglio on a silicon wafer or a glass board. The pattern formed in intaglio on the master mold will be referred to hereinafter as the “master pattern”. - In order to form the master pattern in intaglio on a member such as a silicon wafer, or a glass board, etc., the circuit pattern data is printed on a mask film (103), the mask film on which the circuit pattern is printed is laminated on a member such as a silicon wafer, and adequate selective etching processes are performed on the corresponding member, such as exposure, development, and etching, etc. By this, the master mold according to the present embodiment is formed (104).
- Next, molding material is stacked on the master mold such that the molding material is filled in the master pattern (105). This is to form a relievo pattern that corresponds with the master pattern on a surface of the molding material, as the molding material is shaped according to the master pattern, where the molding material thus formed to have the relievo pattern formed on its surface is to be used as an imprinting stamper.
- Methods of forming the molding material by stacking the molding material on the master mold include the methods of polymerizing a liquid monomer or a polymer precursor, stacking a polymer and heating, and filling a plating layer in the master pattern by plating the master mold, etc.
- In the method of polymerizing a liquid monomer or a polymer precursor, liquid molding material is spread on the master mold such that the molding material is filled in the master pattern (106 a), after which it is polymerized to be a solid polymer having a relievo pattern formed on its surface (107 a). As described above, a master pattern is formed in accordance with the circuit pattern, so that a relievo pattern corresponding to the circuit pattern is formed on the surface of the molding material.
- In the method of forming by heating after stacking a polymer, the molding material of a polymer is laminated on the master mold (106 b), after which the polymer is heated such that it is transformed to a polymer having a relievo pattern formed on its surface (107 b). When the heat is removed, the transformed polymer is hardened to a solid and is formed as an imprinting stamper.
- The method of filling a plating layer in the master pattern by plating the master mold is to form the imprinting stamper, not by forming the molding material by polymerizing a polymer as in the methods described above, but by plating nickel, etc., directly on the master pattern (106 c), that is, by using the plating layer as the molding material. As for the material for plating, the imprinting stamper may be manufactured with a material that can withstand the repetitive imprinting processes, such as nickel, etc.
- After stacking and forming the molding material on the master mold by one of various methods such as those described above, the formed molding material is separated from the master mold (108).
- Among the methods described above, after a polymer is stacked on the master mold and the molding material of polymer is formed, by plating the surface of the polymer (109), the manufacture of the imprinting stamper is completed. The stamper manufactured by forming a polymer may not have enough strength and hardness to transfer a circuit pattern by repeating the imprinting process on the insulation layer, so by depositing a metallic plating layer on the surface of a polymer, the imprinting stamper may be given sufficient hardness. Therefore, it may be advantageous to plate the surface of the polymer with a metallic material such as nickel, etc., that can withstand repetitive imprinting processes.
- To summarize the manufacturing process of an imprinting stamper according to the present embodiment, the
circuit pattern 26 is printed using CAD data on a mask film, the mask film on which the circuit pattern is printed is laminated on a silicon wafer and the like, and then by selective etching only on the parts where thecircuit pattern 26 is not printed, the master mold is manufactured on which an intaglio pattern is formed. - Next, an imprinting stamper of a polymer material may be manufactured after the monomer, polymer precursor, or polymer is coated and solidified using a master mold, or an imprinting stamper of a metallic material may be manufactured after filling a plating layer in the intaglio pattern by plating the master mold with a metallic material and separating the plating layer.
- As in the
imprinting stamper 10 illustrated inFIG. 5 (a), therelievo pattern 12 includes not only thecircuit pattern 26 but also the via holes, and it may be advantageous to form theintaglio pattern 24 corresponding to thecircuit pattern 26 and the via holes on theinsulation layer 20 simultaneously through the imprinting. - Next, the
imprinting stamper 10 is pressed onto theinsulation layer 20, and then theintaglio pattern 24 corresponding to therelievo pattern 12 is formed on the insulation layer 20 (110). This “imprinting” process includes laminating theinsulation layer 20, where the intaglio pattern is to be formed, on thesubstrate 22 as inFIG. 5 (a), laminating and pressing the imprinting stamper 10 (112) as inFIG. 5 (b), and after theinsulation layer 20 is deformed by pressing, demolding the imprinting stamper 10 (114) as inFIG. 5 (c), and afterwards heat-treating and hardening the insulation layer 20 (116), to form theintaglio pattern 24 on theinsulation layer 20. - Of course, according to the material of the
insulation layer 20, theinsulation layer 20 may be heat-treated and partially hardened before demolding theimprinting stamper 10, and post processing processes such as chemical treatment may be applied to theinsulation layer 20 on which theintaglio pattern 24 is formed after demolding theimprinting stamper 10. - On the
insulation layer 20 where theintaglio pattern 24 is formed as thus, by printing theconductive ink 32 in the ink-jet method as inFIG. 5 (d), after filling theconductive ink 32 in theintaglio pattern 24, as inFIG. 5 (e), thecircuit pattern 26 is formed to a required thickness by curing the conductive ink 32 (120). That is, according to the present embodiment, the thickness of thecircuit pattern 26 is determined by the degree of depression in theinsulation layer 20 in the imprinting process. Consequently, the thickness of thecircuit pattern 26 formed on theinsulation layer 20 is determined by how much thecircuit pattern 26 is formed protruding from the imprinting stamper. - Ink-jet printing is a process of ejecting the
conductive ink 32 and printing thecircuit pattern 26, with ink-jet head 30 moving according to previously stored data, and thus the CAD data of thecircuit pattern 26 used for forming therelievo pattern 12 on theimprinting stamper 10 described above may be used as it is for the data for driving the ink-jet head 30. - A printed circuit board manufactured by the manufacturing method of a printed circuit board described above is formed with the
circuit pattern 26 buried in theinsulation layer 20. That is, its structure is such that theintaglio pattern 24 is formed in theinsulation layer 20 in correspondence with the location where thecircuit pattern 26 is formed, and theconductive ink 32 is filled in theintaglio pattern 24 to compose thecircuit pattern 26. - As described above, the
intaglio pattern 24 formed in theinsulation layer 20 is formed by the imprinting process, that is, a process of pressing theimprinting stamper 10, where therelievo pattern 12 corresponding to thecircuit pattern 26 is formed, onto theinsulation layer 20, and the filling of theconductive ink 32 is conducted by the ink-jet printing method, that is, a method of injecting theconductive ink 32 with the ink-jet head 30 moving according to circuit pattern data previously stored. - According to the present invention set forth as above, by injecting conductive ink in a groove processed by the imprinting method, it is possible to realize a circuit pattern of a required thickness, and the spreading of ink and the distortion of the pattern shape can be prevented in the curing process for conductive ink containing metal. Also, the circuit pattern CAD data used in the manufacturing of an imprinting stamper can be utilized again in the ink-jet printing process.
- While the above description has pointed out novel features of the invention as applied to various embodiments, the skilled person will understand that various omissions, substitutions, and changes in the form and details of the device or process illustrated may be made without departing from the scope of the invention. Therefore, the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description. All variations coming within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are embraced within their scope.
