FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing fine aluminum alloy wires used, for example, in wire-wound conductors and especially bonding wires. (Description of prior art) With the advancement of technology in the technical field of electrical equipment, electronic equipment, semiconductor devices, etc., the conductors or bonding wires used in these products have improved in their softening resistance, high temperature strength, and processing into fine wires. Sex is now in demand. Conventionally, for example, when connecting a semiconductor chip to the outside, a thin noble metal wire containing gold as a main component has been used. However, recently, attention has been paid to the use of aluminum alloy thin wires in order to avoid the use of expensive precious metal thin wires. However, the aluminum alloy fine wire for bonding wire has the following drawbacks.
In other words, when connecting thin aluminum alloy wires by ball bonding, for example, a portion of the thin wire is first melted by arc discharge to form a ball using surface tension, and then this is connected to an electrode using heat and ultrasonic waves. do. In this case, the aluminum alloy thin wire may be softened by heating, resulting in a significant decrease in strength. For example, 30μm
When an ultra-fine aluminum alloy wire such as this is melted by arc discharge, the parts near it are also heated to a temperature close to the melting point, which softens the wire and significantly reduces its strength, causing it to break at this neck. This happened often. Therefore, there is a need for an aluminum alloy thin wire that can guarantee softening resistance even when heated at high temperatures. However, with the conventional manufacturing method of obtaining fine aluminum alloy wire by processing a molten and cast ingot through multiple processes, it is difficult to obtain softening resistance, and it is difficult to obtain wire drawing processing to make fine wire. It was also difficult to improve sexual performance. Therefore, we heat and press rapidly cooled aluminum alloy powder,
Later, attempts were made to wire-draw this material. However, with this manufacturing method, even if it was possible to satisfy the softening resistance, it was extremely difficult to satisfy the processability into fine wires. (Object of the Invention) Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a thin aluminum alloy wire that can satisfy both softening resistance and workability into a thin wire. (Structure of the Invention) The present invention is characterized in that the total content of one or more elements selected from V, Cr, Ti, Mn, and rare earth elements is 0.1 to 3% by weight.
This is a method for producing a thin aluminum alloy wire for bonding wire, characterized in that the added molten aluminum is jetted into a cooling liquid and rapidly solidified. "Aluminum melt added with at least one element among V, Cr, Ti, Mn, and rare earth elements"
By using , softening resistance is significantly improved,
In addition, the processability of fine wires is good and the yield is high. "0.1~
3% by weight" is based on the following reasons. That is, if the amount added is less than 0.1% by weight, the above-mentioned improvement will not be effective, while if it exceeds 3% by weight, the above-mentioned improvement effect will be saturated, and there is a possibility that the fine wire processability will be adversely affected. "It is squirted into the coolant and rapidly solidified."
This is because the cross-sectional shape of the wire thus obtained tends to be close to a perfect circle, which increases the cooling rate and makes it easier to obtain the effect of improving characteristics. Preferably, after solidification, at least the area reduction
More than 50% cold working is applied. This is because the cross section can be made uniform and the strength can be improved. The reason why it is set as "50% or more" is that the above effect is insufficient if it is less than 50%. Preferably, as the aluminum melt, Cu,
A material containing at least 3% by weight of one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Si and Mg is used. As a result, it is possible to improve the strength of the fine wire, and in particular, it is possible to significantly improve the strength by cold working. “Total of 3% by weight or less” means 3% by weight.
If it exceeds this, the effect will be saturated, and there is a risk that the cold workability will be adversely affected, and the conductivity will be adversely affected. Preferably, as the aluminum melt, Be,
A material containing a total of 0.001 to 0.3% by weight of one or more elements selected from the group consisting of B and Li is used. This makes it easy to obtain a line with a uniform cross-sectional shape and a nearly perfect circle when it is jetted from a molten state into a cooling liquid and rapidly solidified. Furthermore, when performing ball bonding as a bonding wire for wiring of a semiconductor device, the ability to form a ball can be improved. “Total 0.001 to 0.3
The reason for "% by weight" is that if it is less than 0.001%, the above effect is insufficient, and if it exceeds 0.3%, the above effect is saturated. Preferably, the method for rapidly solidifying the molten aluminum is a method in which the above-mentioned alloy in a molten state is rapidly solidified into a thin wire as a jet flow in a cooling liquid that is present in a layer on the inner wall surface of a rotating drum due to centrifugal force. used. The reason for using the above method is that V, Cr, Ti,
This is to suppress the segregation and precipitation of Mn rare earth elements in an aluminum melt containing a large amount of these elements. Preferably, the wire obtained by the method according to the present invention is used as a wiring conductor of a semiconductor device, such as a bonding wire. (Description of Examples) Example 1 An aluminum alloy having the composition shown in Table 1 was melted in a crucible 1 of a rotating liquid spinning device schematically shown in FIG. This melting was performed by heating with a heater 2 placed around the crucible 1. Next, Ar gas is introduced into the crucible 1 from above the crucible 1, and the pressure causes the aluminum melt to be transferred to the rotating drum 3.
The liquid was ejected from a round hole at the bottom of the crucible 1 into a cooling liquid tank formed on the inner wall surface of the crucible 1. This allows the diameter
A thin aluminum alloy wire 4 of 0.25 mm was obtained. Thereafter, this aluminum alloy thin wire 4 was drawn to a diameter of 30 μm. For comparison, as a conventional method, an aluminum alloy having the composition shown in Table 1 was melted in a protective atmosphere, and then subjected to semi-continuous casting, hot extrusion, stripping, cold wire drawing, and intermediate annealing to form a wire with a diameter of 30 μm. I tried wire drawing processing until it became . According to the manufacturing method according to the present invention, all samples (numbers 1 to 10) could be wire-drawn to a diameter of 30 μm at a high yield. On the other hand, in the conventional manufacturing methods compared, all had poor cold wire drawability, and it was possible to collect only a small amount of samples. Example 2 Ball bonding was performed using alloy wires (30 μm) having compositions of sample numbers 1 to 10 according to the present invention. That is, in an Ar gas atmosphere, an arc was generated between the tip of the alloy wire fixed to the capillary and the electrode to melt it, to produce a ball, which was bonded to the electrode part of the semiconductor element. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a state in which the alloy wire is connected to a semiconductor element. In the figure, 5 is an aluminum alloy thin wire, 6 is a ball bonding part, 7 is an electrode, 8 is a semiconductor element,
9 is a lead frame, 10 is a stitch bonding portion, and 11 is a wire center portion. When a strength test was conducted by pulling the thin aluminum alloy wire 5 as shown by arrow A in the figure from the connected state shown in FIG. It was cut around 11. On the other hand, in the conventional method, there were many cases in which cutting was performed near the ball bonding part 6 or the stitch bonding part 10.
