Vertically aligned graphite substrate (VGS)–copper packaging was renowned for improving the robustness against the thermal gradient loading by using micro texturing. The micro-groove array with a line width of 50 μm and a pitch of 100 μm was formed into the VGS by controlling the line depth with the use of fast-rate oxygen plasma etching. Three micro-grooved VGS specimens were wet-plated to fill these microgrooves with copper deposits and to cover the VGS surfaces. The nearly full-deposited VGS-Copper specimens were subjected to a severe thermal transient loading test. The simply Cu-covered package and shallow rib-structured VGS-Cu packages were damaged to delaminate at their interfaces. The VGS-Cu package with the copper rib structure with a height of 50 μm experienced no delamination. This rib-structured VGS-copper package with high rib height had sufficient robustness against the severe thermal transients even with the proof of homogeneous thermal spreading capacity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
