電子部品及びその製法、並びにそれに用いる封止材料ペーストElectronic component, method for producing the same, and sealing material paste used therefor

 本発明は、2枚の透明基板の間に有機素子或いは有機材料が内蔵され、その外周部を封止材料を用いて接合した電子部品に関する。 The present invention relates to an electronic component in which an organic element or an organic material is contained between two transparent substrates, and the outer peripheral portion thereof is joined using a sealing material.

 2枚の透明基板の間に有機素子や有機材料が内蔵された電子部品がある。この電子部品では、それら有機素子や有機材料を湿気、水分等から保護するために、2枚の透明基板の外周部を樹脂の封止材料で接合したり、さらに乾燥剤を電子部品の内部に設置したり等している。しかし、樹脂による接合は、ガスバリア性(気密性)が不十分なため、水分子を徐々に浸透させ、十分な信頼性が得られていなかった。一方、低融点ガラスを用いた封止材料は、高いガスバリア性(気密性)を有した接合を可能にするが、樹脂の封止材料よりも著しく高い接合温度を必要とする。この接合温度では電子部品に内蔵される有機素子や有機材料の耐熱性を越えてしまう。 There is an electronic component in which an organic element or an organic material is embedded between two transparent substrates. In this electronic component, in order to protect the organic element and the organic material from moisture, moisture and the like, the outer peripheral portion of the two transparent substrates is joined with a resin sealing material, and a desiccant is further incorporated into the electronic component. It has been installed. However, since bonding with resin has insufficient gas barrier properties (air tightness), water molecules are gradually permeated and sufficient reliability has not been obtained. On the other hand, a sealing material using low melting point glass enables bonding with high gas barrier properties (air tightness), but requires a bonding temperature significantly higher than that of a resin sealing material. At this bonding temperature, the heat resistance of the organic element and organic material incorporated in the electronic component is exceeded.

 そこで、局部的に加熱できるレーザ封止が考案された。封止材料は、気密な接合を可能にする低融点ガラスを使用する。この低融点ガラスは、使用するレーザ光を吸収して加熱され、そして軟化流動することが重要である。このような方法は、2枚の透明基板の外周部のみを加熱することができることから、電子部品に内蔵される有機素子や有機材料に熱的なダメージを与えることなく、高いガスバリア性(気密性)を有したガラス接合を可能にする。 Therefore, a laser seal that can be locally heated has been devised. The sealing material uses low melting point glass which enables airtight bonding. It is important that the low melting glass be heated by absorbing the laser light used and softened and flow. Since such a method can heat only the outer peripheral portion of the two transparent substrates, high gas barrier properties (airtightness) can be achieved without causing thermal damage to the organic element or organic material incorporated in the electronic component. Enables glass bonding).

 有機発光ダイオード(OLED)を内蔵するディスプレイ等では、封止材料を外周部に仮焼成したガラス基板と、もう一方のOLEDを形成したガラス基板とを合わせ、ガラス基板越しにレーザを照射することによって、封止材料中の低融点ガラスを軟化し、流動させ、2枚のガラス基板を接合する。特許文献1は、OLEDディスプレイにおいて、外周部をレーザで接合できる封止材料を提案する。この封止材料は、レーザによって加熱できるV25-P25-Sb23系低融点ガラスと、熱膨張係数を低下させるためのリチウム・アルミノ・シリケート(β-ユークリプタイト)のフィラー粒子を含む。さらに、この低融点ガラスは、K2O、Fe23、ZnO、TiO2、Al23、B23、WO3のいずれかを含み、350℃未満の転移点Tgを有する。特許文献2でも、特許文献1と同様な封止材料を適用したガラスパッケージを提案する。封止材料に含まれる低融点ガラスも特許文献1と同様なものである。空気より少ない酸素量を有した低酸化雰囲気中でガラス基板外周部に仮焼成することによって、3価または4価のバナジウムイオンが5価へ変化することを阻止する。それにより、レーザ照射による軟化流動性が劣化することやレーザ封止後の接合部の耐湿性や耐水性が低下することを防止している。 In a display or the like incorporating an organic light emitting diode (OLED), a glass substrate obtained by temporarily sintering a sealing material on the outer peripheral portion is combined with a glass substrate on which the other OLED is formed, and a laser is irradiated over the glass substrate. And softening and flowing the low melting glass in the sealing material to bond the two glass substrates. Patent Document 1 proposes a sealing material capable of joining the outer peripheral portion with a laser in an OLED display. This sealing material is a V 2 O 5 -P 2 O 5 -Sb 2 O 3 -based low melting glass that can be heated by laser, and a lithium alumino silicate (β-eucryptite) for reducing the thermal expansion coefficient. Containing filler particles. Further, the low-melting glass, K 2 comprises O, Fe 2 O 3, ZnO , one of TiO 2, Al 2 O 3, B 2 O 3, WO 3, having a transition point T g of the less than 350 ° C. . Patent Document 2 also proposes a glass package to which the same sealing material as in Patent Document 1 is applied. The low melting point glass contained in the sealing material is also similar to that of Patent Document 1. By pre-baking the outer peripheral portion of the glass substrate in a low oxidation atmosphere having an oxygen content smaller than that of air, it is possible to prevent the trivalent or tetravalent vanadium ion from changing to pentavalent. As a result, it is possible to prevent the deterioration of the softening flowability due to the laser irradiation and the deterioration of the moisture resistance and the water resistance of the bonding portion after the laser sealing.

 前述した封止材料に含まれるV25-P25-Sb23系低融点ガラスは失透(結晶化)を起こしやすい。この低融点ガラスが失透すると、レーザ照射による軟化流動性や接着性が低下するため、より低温で時間をかけて仮焼成する必要があった。レーザ出力を上げることによって軟化流動性や接着性は改善できるが、これにより電子部品に内蔵される有機素子や有機材料に熱的なダメージを与える可能性が十分にあった。また、レーザで接合した後の耐湿性や耐水性を確保するためには、レーザ封止前の仮焼成を低酸素雰囲気中で行う必要があった。 V 2 O 5 -P 2 O 5 -Sb 2 O 3 based low-melting glass contained in the above-mentioned sealing material susceptible to devitrification (crystallization). When the low melting point glass is devitrified, the softening fluidity and the adhesiveness by the laser irradiation are reduced, so that it is necessary to take time for temporary baking at a lower temperature. By increasing the laser output, it is possible to improve the softening flowability and adhesion, but there is a possibility that the organic element and the organic material incorporated in the electronic component may be thermally damaged. Moreover, in order to ensure moisture resistance and water resistance after joining by a laser, it was necessary to perform temporary baking before laser sealing in a low oxygen atmosphere.

 そこで、本発明の目的は、電子部品に内蔵される有機素子や有機材料に対する熱的なダメージを低減し、電子部品を効率的に製造し、ガラス接合層の失透を低減することにある。 Therefore, an object of the present invention is to reduce thermal damage to an organic element or an organic material incorporated in an electronic component, efficiently manufacture the electronic component, and reduce the devitrification of the glass bonding layer.

 以下、本発明を説明する。本発明における実施形態の電子部品2種類の上面概略図とその封止部分の断面概略図を図1A,1B及び図2A,2Bに示す。図1A,1Bに示す電子部品は、2枚の透明基板1と2と、透明基板1と2の間に1つ以上の有機部材3(有機素子或いは有機材料)を有し、その2枚の透明基板1と2の外周部を低融点ガラスを含む封止材料5で接合した。図2A,2Bに示す電子部品は、より大きな間隔を有した2枚の透明基板1と2を有し、透明基板1と2はスペーサ6を介して封止材料5と5Aで接合した。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described. FIGS. 1A and 1B and FIGS. 2A and 2B show schematic top views of two types of electronic components according to an embodiment of the present invention and cross-sectional schematic views of the sealing portions thereof. The electronic component shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B has two transparent substrates 1 and 2 and one or more organic members 3 (organic elements or organic materials) between the transparent substrates 1 and 2. The outer peripheral portions of the transparent substrates 1 and 2 were bonded with a sealing material 5 containing low melting glass. The electronic component shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B has two transparent substrates 1 and 2 with a larger gap, and the transparent substrates 1 and 2 are joined by the sealing material 5 and 5A via the spacer 6.

 本発明は、封止材料5,5Aに含まれる低融点ガラスが、酸化バナジウム、酸化テルル、酸化リン及び酸化鉄を含み、次の酸化物換算でV25、TeO2、P25及びFe23の合計が75質量%以上であり、しかもV25>TeO2>P25≧Fe23(質量%)であることを特徴とする。この条件を満たす低融点ガラスは、特にレーザの照射によって、その波長の光を効率的に吸収し、かつ加熱され、容易に軟化流動する。すなわち、この低融点ガラスとレーザを用いることによって、所望のところのみに加熱を留め、有機部材3に熱的なダメージを与えることなく、2枚の透明基板1と2の外周部を接合できる。 In the present invention, the low melting point glass contained in the sealing material 5, 5A contains vanadium oxide, tellurium oxide, phosphorus oxide and iron oxide, and the following oxide conversion V 2 O 5 , TeO 2 , P 2 O 5 And Fe 2 O 3 is at least 75% by mass, and V 2 O 5 > TeO 2 > P 2 O 5 FeFe 2 O 3 (% by mass). The low melting point glass satisfying this condition is efficiently absorbed by the light of the wavelength, heated, and softened and flows easily, particularly by laser irradiation. That is, by using the low melting point glass and the laser, heating can be stopped only at a desired place, and the outer peripheral portions of the two transparent substrates 1 and 2 can be joined without thermally damaging the organic member 3.

 使用するレーザの波長としては、この低融点ガラスが効率的に光を吸収し、しかも透明基板を透過する400~1100nmの範囲で有効である。波長が400nm未満であると、透明基板や、その内部の有機素子や有機材料が加熱され、劣化してしまう恐れがある。一方、波長が1100nmを越えると、この低融点ガラスの光吸収が減り、良好な軟化流動性を示さなくなったり、また、水分を含むような箇所があると、この水分は加熱されて悪影響を及ぼすことがある。 As a wavelength of a laser to be used, it is effective in the range of 400 to 1100 nm in which the low melting glass efficiently absorbs light and transmits the transparent substrate. If the wavelength is less than 400 nm, the transparent substrate and the organic element and organic material in the inside may be heated and deteriorated. On the other hand, if the wavelength exceeds 1100 nm, the light absorption of this low melting glass decreases, and it does not show good softening and fluidity, and if there is a place containing moisture, this moisture is heated and has an adverse effect. Sometimes.

 低融点ガラスとしては、酸化物換算でV25を最も多く含有されることが重要である。これによって、低融点ガラスは400~1100nmの波長範囲の光を効率よく吸収し、加熱される。同時に、低融点ガラスの軟化点Tsを低温化でき、400~1100nmの波長範囲にあるレーザを低融点ガラスに照射することによって低融点ガラスを容易に軟化流動させることが可能となる。 As the low melting point glass, it is important to contain the largest amount of V 2 O 5 in terms of oxide. By this, the low melting glass efficiently absorbs light in the wavelength range of 400 to 1100 nm and is heated. At the same time, the softening point T s of the low melting glass can be lowered, and the low melting glass can be easily softened and flowed by irradiating the low melting glass with a laser in the wavelength range of 400 to 1100 nm.

 TeO2とP25はガラス化させるための重要な成分である。封止材料がガラスでないと、低温で軟化流動させることができない。また、レーザ照射によっても封止材料を容易に軟化流動させることができない。P25はTeO2よりガラス化する効果が大きく、しかも低熱膨張化に有効であるが、P25がTeO2以上の含有量とすると、耐湿性や耐水性を低下させたり、軟化点Tsを上昇させたりてしまう。しかし、一方でTeO2の含有量を多くしていくと、熱膨張係数が大きくなる傾向がある。熱膨張係数が大きくなり過ぎると、レーザ照射によるヒートショックは低融点ガラスを軟化流動させる前に破損してしまうことがある。 TeO 2 and P 2 O 5 are important components for vitrification. If the sealing material is not glass, it can not soften and flow at low temperatures. Also, the sealing material can not be easily softened and flowed by laser irradiation. P 2 O 5 has a greater effect of vitrifying than TeO 2 and is effective for reducing thermal expansion, but when P 2 O 5 has a content of TeO 2 or more, it lowers the moisture resistance and water resistance, and softens. It raises the point T s . However, when the content of TeO 2 is increased, the thermal expansion coefficient tends to increase. If the thermal expansion coefficient becomes too large, heat shock by laser irradiation may be broken before softening and flowing the low melting glass.

 Fe23は、特にP25に作用して低融点ガラスの耐湿性や耐水性を向上させる成分である。また、Fe23は、V25同様に400~1100nmの波長範囲の光を効率的に吸収する成分でもある。しかし、Fe23がP25を超える含有量になると、低融点ガラスが加熱により結晶化してしまう。この結晶化は低融点ガラスの軟化流動性を妨げる現象であり、好ましいことではない。 Fe 2 O 3 is a component that acts particularly on P 2 O 5 to improve the moisture resistance and water resistance of the low melting glass. Further, Fe 2 O 3 is also a component that efficiently absorbs light in the wavelength range of 400 to 1100 nm as V 2 O 5 does. However, when the content of Fe 2 O 3 exceeds P 2 O 5 , the low melting point glass is crystallized by heating. This crystallization is a phenomenon that hinders the softening and fluidity of the low melting point glass and is not desirable.

 以上述べたV25、TeO2、P25及びFe23のそれぞれの役割やその効果は、それらの含有量の合計が75質量%以上であることにより得られ、レーザ照射による信頼性(接着性、密着性、耐湿性、耐水性等)の高い接合部が得られる。 The role and effect of each of V 2 O 5 , TeO 2 , P 2 O 5 and Fe 2 O 3 described above can be obtained by the total content of those being 75 mass% or more, and by laser irradiation A joint portion with high reliability (adhesion, adhesion, moisture resistance, water resistance, etc.) can be obtained.

 低融点ガラスの特に有効な組成範囲は、次の酸化物換算で35~55質量%のV25、19~30質量%のTeO2、7~20質量%のP25、5~15質量%のFe23であ
る。
A particularly effective composition range of the low melting point glass is 35 to 55% by mass of V 2 O 5 , 19 to 30% by mass of TeO 2 , 7 to 20% by mass of P 2 O 5 , 5 to 5 in terms of the following oxides. It is 15% by mass of Fe 2 O 3 .

 結晶化の防止や抑制にはWO3、MoO3、Ta25、ZnO、BaO、SrOの含有が有効である。耐湿性や耐水性の向上にはMnO2、Sb23、Bi23、BaO、SrO、Ag2O、K2Oの含有が有効である。熱膨張係数の低減にはNb25、Ta25、ZnOの含有が有効である。軟化点Tsの低温化にはMoO3、Ag2O、K2Oの含有が有効である。一方、結晶化を促進してしまう成分はNb25、MnO2、Sb23、Bi23、Ag2O、K2Oである。軟化点Tsを上昇させてしまう成分はSb23、Bi23、BaO、SrOである。熱膨張係数を増加してしまう成分はMoO3、BaO、SrO、Ag2O、K2Oである。耐湿性や耐水性を低下してしまう成分はMoO3、Nb25、Ta25、ZnOである。このため、WO3、MoO3、Nb25、Ta25、MnO2、Sb23、Bi23、ZnO、BaO、SrO、Ag2O、K2Oの含有は、一長一短である。V25、TeO2、P25及びFe23からなるベース組成の特性を十分に配慮した上で含有させる成分とその含有量を決定する必要がある。 The inclusion of WO 3 , MoO 3 , Ta 2 O 5 , ZnO, BaO, SrO is effective for preventing or suppressing crystallization. The inclusion of MnO 2 , Sb 2 O 3 , Bi 2 O 3 , BaO, SrO, Ag 2 O, and K 2 O is effective for improving the moisture resistance and the water resistance. Containing Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 and ZnO is effective for reducing the thermal expansion coefficient. The contents of MoO 3 , Ag 2 O, and K 2 O are effective for lowering the softening point T s . On the other hand, the components promoting crystallization are Nb 2 O 5 , MnO 2 , Sb 2 O 3 , Bi 2 O 3 , Ag 2 O, and K 2 O. Component would raise the softening point T s is Sb 2 O 3, Bi 2 O 3, BaO, is SrO. The components that increase the thermal expansion coefficient are MoO 3 , BaO, SrO, Ag 2 O, and K 2 O. The components that lower the moisture resistance and water resistance are MoO 3 , Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , and ZnO. Therefore, the content of WO 3 , MoO 3 , Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , MnO 2 , Sb 2 O 3 , Bi 2 O 3 , ZnO, BaO, SrO, Ag 2 O, K 2 O is short and long It is. It is necessary to determine the components to be contained and the content thereof with due consideration given to the characteristics of the base composition consisting of V 2 O 5 , TeO 2 , P 2 O 5 and Fe 2 O 3 .

 次の酸化物換算でWO3、MoO3、Nb25、Ta25、MnO2、Sb23、Bi23、ZnO、SrO、BaO、Ag2O、K2Oのうち1種以上の合計が25質量%以下にすることが好ましい。これらの含有量の合計が、25質量%を超えると、軟化点Tsが上昇したり、熱膨張係数が大きくなったり、或いは結晶化傾向が大きくなったりする場合がある。また、WO3、MoO3、Nb25、Ta25、MnO2、Sb23、Bi23、ZnO、SrO、BaO、Ag2O、K2Oのうち1種以上の合計が0~20質量%であることがより好ましい。 Of WO 3 , MoO 3 , Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , MnO 2 , Sb 2 O 3 , Bi 2 O 3 , ZnO, SrO, BaO, Ag 2 O, K 2 O in terms of the following oxides It is preferable that the sum of one or more be 25% by mass or less. When the total content of these components exceeds 25% by mass, the softening point T s may be increased, the thermal expansion coefficient may be increased, or the crystallization tendency may be increased. In addition, one or more of WO 3 , MoO 3 , Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , MnO 2 , Sb 2 O 3 , Bi 2 O 3 , ZnO, SrO, BaO, Ag 2 O, and K 2 O More preferably, the total is 0 to 20% by mass.

 V25が35質量%未満では、400~1100nmの範囲にある波長のレーザを低融点ガラスに照射しても、低融点ガラスは容易に軟化流動しづらくなる場合がある。一方、V25が55質量%を越えると、耐湿性、耐水性等の信頼性が低下する場合がある。TeO2が19質量%未満では、低融点ガラスの結晶化傾向が大きくなったり、また軟化点Tsが上昇したり、耐湿性、耐水性等の信頼性が低下する場合がある。一方、TeO2が30質量%を越えると、低融点ガラスの軟化点Tsを低温化しやすくなるが、熱膨張係数が大きくなり、レーザ照射によるヒートショックで低融点ガラスが軟化流動する前に破損することがある。 When V 2 O 5 is less than 35% by mass, the low melting point glass may become difficult to soften and flow easily even when the low melting point glass is irradiated with a laser having a wavelength in the range of 400 to 1100 nm. On the other hand, when V 2 O 5 exceeds 55% by mass, reliability such as moisture resistance and water resistance may be lowered. The TeO 2 is less than 19 mass%, the or crystallization tendency of the low-melting glass becomes large, or the softening point T s is increased, humidity resistance, reliability such as water resistance decreases. On the other hand, when the content of TeO 2 exceeds 30% by mass, the softening point T s of the low melting glass is easily lowered to a low temperature, but the thermal expansion coefficient becomes large, and breakage occurs before the low melting glass softens and flows due to heat shock by laser irradiation. There is something to do.

 P25が7質量%未満では、低融点ガラスの結晶化傾向が増加し、しかもレーザ照射により低融点ガラスが軟化流動しにくくなる場合がある。一方、P25が20質量%を越えると、低融点ガラスの軟化点Tsが上昇してしまい、レーザを照射しても低融点ガラスが容易に軟化流動しにくくなる場合がある。さらに、このP25は低融点ガラスの耐湿性、耐水性等の信頼性も低下する場合がある。Fe23が5質量%未満では、低融点ガラスの耐湿性、耐水性等の信頼性が低下し、一方、Fe23が15質量%を越えると低融点ガラスの結晶化が促進される場合がある。 If the content of P 2 O 5 is less than 7% by mass, the crystallization tendency of the low melting glass may be increased, and furthermore, the low melting glass may be difficult to soften and flow due to the laser irradiation. On the other hand, if P 2 O 5 exceeds 20% by mass, the softening point T s of the low melting glass may rise, and the low melting glass may not easily soften and flow even when the laser is irradiated. Furthermore, this P 2 O 5 may lower the reliability of the low melting point glass such as moisture resistance and water resistance. The Fe 2 O 3 is less than 5 wt%, the moisture resistance of the low-melting glass, the reliability of the water resistance is lowered, whereas, Fe 2 O 3 crystallization of the low-melting glass exceeds 15 mass% is promoted May be

 WO3、MoO3、Nb25、Ta25、MnO2、Sb23、Bi23、ZnO、SrO、BaO、Ag2O、K2Oのうち1種以上の合計が20質量%を越えると、含有成分によっては、低融点ガラスの軟化点Tsが上昇したり、熱膨張係数が大きくなったり、或いは結晶化傾向が大きくなったりすることがある。 One or more of WO 3 , MoO 3 , Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , MnO 2 , Sb 2 O 3 , Bi 2 O 3 , ZnO, SrO, BaO, Ag 2 O, K 2 O in total If it exceeds 20% by mass, the softening point T s of the low melting point glass may increase, the thermal expansion coefficient may increase, or the crystallization tendency may increase depending on the components contained.

 さらに、上記低融点ガラスの転移点Tgが320℃以下及び軟化点Tsが380℃以下であることが有効である。後で詳細は説明するが、ここで言う転移点Tg及び軟化点Tsは、示差熱分析(DTA)による特性温度であり、転移点Tgは第一吸熱ピークの開始温度、軟化点Tsは第二吸熱ピーク温度である。転移点Tgが320℃を越えると、急熱急冷をともなうレーザ封止で大きな残留歪が低融点ガラスに発生することがある。また、軟化点Tsが380℃を超えると、低融点ガラスはレーザ照射時に容易に軟化流動させにくくなってしまう。また、上記低融点ガラスは、30~250℃での熱膨張係数が100×10-7/℃以下であることが有効である。熱膨張係数が100×10-7/℃を越えると、レーザ照射時のヒートショックでクラックが発生することがある。 Furthermore, the transition point T g is 320 ° C. or less and a softening point T s of the low melting glass is effective at 380 ° C. or less. Although the details will be described later, the transition point T g and the softening point T s referred to here are characteristic temperatures by differential thermal analysis (DTA), and the transition point T g is the onset temperature of the first endothermic peak, the softening point T s is the second endothermic peak temperature. When transition point T g exceeds 320 ° C., there is a large residual strain in the laser sealing with a rapid heating and quenching occurs in the low-melting glass. Further, the softening point T s is higher than 380 ° C., the low-melting glass becomes hard to easily soften flow during laser irradiation. Further, it is effective that the low melting point glass has a thermal expansion coefficient of 100 × 10 −7 / ° C. or less at 30 to 250 ° C. When the thermal expansion coefficient exceeds 100 × 10 −7 / ° C., cracks may occur due to heat shock during laser irradiation.

 また、本発明は、図1A,1B及び図2A,2Bに示した電子部品において、封止材料5に上記低融点ガラスの他、例えば熱膨張係数を小さくするためにフィラーが含有されてもよい。また、そのフィラーがリン酸タングステン酸ジルコニウム(Zr2(WO4)(PO42)、酸化ニオブ(Nb25)、シリコン(Si)のうち1種以上であることが好ましい。これらのフィラーは、本低融点ガラスより小さい熱膨張係数を有する上に、本低融点ガラスとのぬれ性や密着性が良好であるために、封止材料5としての熱膨張係数を小さくすることができる。 Further, in the electronic component shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B and FIGS. 2A and 2B, the sealing material 5 may further contain, for example, a filler for reducing the thermal expansion coefficient, in addition to the low melting point glass. . The filler is preferably at least one of zirconium phosphate tungstate (Zr 2 (WO 4 ) (PO 4 ) 2 ), niobium oxide (Nb 2 O 5 ), and silicon (Si). These fillers have a thermal expansion coefficient smaller than that of the present low melting glass, and also have good wettability and adhesion to the present low melting glass, so that the thermal expansion coefficient as the sealing material 5 should be reduced. Can.

 封止材料5の熱膨張係数を下げる効果は、Zr2(WO4)(PO4)2が一番大きく、次にSi、そしてNb25の順である。ただし、Siは波長が400~1100nmの範囲にあるレーザを吸収し発熱できることや、熱伝導が他の2つのフィラーや低融点ガラスよりも良好であるため、レーザ封止には特に有効である。封止材料中の上記フィラーの含有量は、本低融点ガラス100体積部に対し、35体積部以下とすることが好ましい。 The effect of lowering the thermal expansion coefficient of the sealing material 5 is the largest in Zr 2 (WO 4 ) (PO 4 ) 2 , then in the order of Si and Nb 2 O 5 . However, Si is particularly effective for laser sealing because it can absorb and generate a laser having a wavelength in the range of 400 to 1100 nm and its thermal conductivity is better than the other two fillers and low melting point glass. The content of the filler in the sealing material is preferably 35 parts by volume or less with respect to 100 parts by volume of the present low melting glass.

 しかし、上記フィラーの含有量が35体積部を越えると、封止材料中の低融点ガラスの軟化流動性が低下し、レーザ照射時に接着性が弱くなる場合がある。 However, when the content of the filler exceeds 35 parts by volume, the softening and fluidity of the low melting glass in the sealing material may be reduced, and the adhesion may be weakened at the time of laser irradiation.

 また、図1A、1Bで示した本発明の電子部品において、封止材料5による接合層の厚みが20μm以下であることが好ましい。接合層の厚みが20μmを越えると、レーザ照射される透明基板側から遠い封止材料5に含まれる低融点ガラスが軟化流動しにくいため、封止材料5の厚み方向に対し全体的に良好な軟化流動性を示さなくなってしまう。また、図2A,2Bで示した電子部品では、2枚の透明基板1と2の間隔が大きく、特にその間隔が100μm以上の場合には、スペーサ6を介して接合することが望ましい。その際の接合層の厚みは、封止材料5,5Aともに上記同様に20μm以下とすることが好ましい。 Moreover, in the electronic component of the present invention shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the thickness of the bonding layer made of the sealing material 5 is preferably 20 μm or less. When the thickness of the bonding layer exceeds 20 μm, the low melting point glass contained in the sealing material 5 far from the transparent substrate side irradiated with the laser is hard to soften and flow, so the entire thickness direction of the sealing material 5 is good. It will not show softening flowability. Further, in the electronic component shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, it is desirable that the two transparent substrates 1 and 2 be joined via the spacer 6 when the distance between the two transparent substrates 1 and 2 is large, particularly when the distance is 100 μm or more. The thickness of the bonding layer at that time is preferably 20 μm or less in the same manner as described above for both of the sealing materials 5 and 5A.

 さらに、図1A,1Bと図2A,2Bで示した本発明の電子部品において、透明基板1と2、或いはスペーサ6は、ガラス製或いは樹脂製である。これらは、透明であることから400~1100nmの波長の光の吸収率が少なく、しかも透過率が高い。このため、400~1100nmの範囲にある波長のレーザが照射されても、ほとんど加熱されることなく、レーザが透過し、所望の部分の封止材料5或いは5Aのみへ照射できる。レーザが照射された封止材料5或いは5Aは、それに含まれる低融点ガラスが軟化流動することから、透明基板1と2の外周部を接合できる。 Furthermore, in the electronic component of the present invention shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B and FIGS. 2A and 2B, the transparent substrates 1 and 2 or the spacer 6 are made of glass or resin. Since they are transparent, they have low absorptivity for light of wavelengths of 400 to 1100 nm and high transmittance. For this reason, even when a laser having a wavelength in the range of 400 to 1100 nm is irradiated, the laser can be transmitted without being heated, and only the sealing material 5 or 5A of the desired portion can be irradiated. In the sealing material 5 or 5A irradiated with the laser, since the low melting point glass contained therein softens and flows, the outer peripheral portions of the transparent substrates 1 and 2 can be joined.

 また、本発明は、上記低融点ガラスの粉末と、樹脂バインダーと、溶剤とを含む封止材料ペーストである。樹脂バインダーと溶剤を含むことで、スクリーン印刷等のように基板に塗布し易くなる。封止材料ペーストを基板に塗布した後乾燥させて樹脂バインダーと溶剤を揮発させるので、焼成時に気泡が発生せず、形成された封止材料の気密性を高めることができる。この低融点ガラスの粒径としては、平均粒径が3μm以下であることが好ましい。また、樹脂バインダーとしては、エチルセルロース或いはニトロセルロース、溶剤としては、ブチルカルビトールアセテートが好ましい。さらに、この封止材料ペーストは、フィラー粒子を含有してもよい。このフィラー粒子の粒径としては、平均粒径が上記低融点ガラスの平均粒径より大きいことが好ましい。また、このフィラー粒子の含有量は、本低融点ガラスの粉末100体積部に対し、35体積部以下であることが好ましい。フィラー粒子の含有量が35体積部以上であると、上述したように接着性が弱くなる場合がある。 Moreover, this invention is the sealing material paste containing the powder of the said low melting glass, a resin binder, and a solvent. By including a resin binder and a solvent, it becomes easy to apply to a substrate like screen printing. Since the sealing material paste is applied to a substrate and then dried to evaporate the resin binder and the solvent, no bubbles are generated at the time of firing, and the airtightness of the formed sealing material can be enhanced. As a particle size of this low melting glass, it is preferable that an average particle size is 3 micrometers or less. Further, as the resin binder, ethyl cellulose or nitrocellulose is preferable, and as the solvent, butyl carbitol acetate is preferable. Furthermore, this sealing material paste may contain filler particles. As a particle size of this filler particle, it is preferable that an average particle size is larger than the average particle size of the said low melting glass. Moreover, it is preferable that content of this filler particle | grain is 35 volume parts or less with respect to 100 volume parts of powder of this low melting glass. Adhesiveness may become weak as above-mentioned as content of a filler particle is 35 volume parts or more.

 次に、本発明の電子部品の製法について説明する。図1A,1Bに示した電子部品の製法を図3A,3B~図5に簡単に示す。図3A,3Bに示すように、透明基板1の外周部に低融点ガラスを含む封止材料5を形成する。その形成方法は、先ずは封止材料5となる上記封止材料ペーストを透明基板1の外周部に塗布し、乾燥させる。透明基板1にガラス基板を用いる場合には、焼成炉或いは400~1100nmの波長範囲にあるレーザ7の照射によって、封止材料5に含まれる低融点ガラスを軟化流動させ、透明基板1へ焼成、形成する。透明基板1に樹脂基板を用いる場合には、樹脂の耐熱性が低く、焼成炉を使用できないため、上記レーザ7の照射によって封止材料5を透明基板1の外周部に焼成、形成する。 Next, the manufacturing method of the electronic component of the present invention will be described. A method of manufacturing the electronic component shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B is briefly shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B-5. As shown to FIG. 3A and 3B, the sealing material 5 containing low melting glass is formed in the outer peripheral part of the transparent substrate 1. FIG. In the formation method, first, the above-mentioned sealing material paste to be the sealing material 5 is applied to the outer peripheral portion of the transparent substrate 1 and dried. When a glass substrate is used as the transparent substrate 1, the low melting point glass contained in the sealing material 5 is softened and flowed by the firing furnace or the irradiation of the laser 7 in the wavelength range of 400 to 1100 nm to bake the transparent substrate 1. Form. When a resin substrate is used for the transparent substrate 1, the heat resistance of the resin is low, and a firing furnace can not be used. Therefore, the sealing material 5 is fired and formed on the outer peripheral portion of the transparent substrate 1 by irradiation of the laser 7.

 次に、図4A,4Bに示すように、1つ以上の有機部材3を形成したもう一方の透明基板2を作製する。透明基板2は、ガラス基板、樹脂基板のどちらでもよいが、透明基板1の材質と合わせることが好ましい。透明基板1の封止材料5が形成された面と透明基板2の有機部材3が形成された面とを、図5に示すように対向させて、2枚の透明基板1,2を位置合わせし、透明基板1,2と封止材料5とで形成される内部空間に有機部材3を配置する。なお、封止材料5を塗布した透明基板1をレーザ照射によって焼成する場合は、透明基板1の外周部以外は加熱されにくいため、有機部材3を透明基板1に形成してもよい。400~1100nmの波長範囲にあるレーザ7を透明基板越しに封止材料5へ照射する。レーザ7は何れの透明基板の外側から封止材料5へ照射してもよいが、封止材料5は透明基板1に予め形成されているので、透明基板2の外側から封止材料5へレーザ7を照射すると、より効率良く封止することができる。その際に電子部品に内蔵される有機部材3にレーザ7が照射されないよう注意しなければならない。有機部材3がレーザ7の照射によって損傷或いは劣化する可能性が十分にあるためである。封止材料5は、上記レーザ7の照射によって、封止材料5に含まれる低融点ガラスを軟化流動させ、2枚の透明基板1と2の外周部を接合する。 Next, as shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the other transparent substrate 2 on which one or more organic members 3 are formed is manufactured. The transparent substrate 2 may be either a glass substrate or a resin substrate, but is preferably combined with the material of the transparent substrate 1. The surface of the transparent substrate 1 on which the sealing material 5 is formed and the surface of the transparent substrate 2 on which the organic member 3 is formed are opposed as shown in FIG. 5 to align the two transparent substrates 1 and 2 Then, the organic member 3 is disposed in the internal space formed by the transparent substrates 1 and 2 and the sealing material 5. In the case where the transparent substrate 1 coated with the sealing material 5 is fired by laser irradiation, the organic member 3 may be formed on the transparent substrate 1 because it is difficult to heat other than the outer peripheral portion of the transparent substrate 1. The sealing material 5 is irradiated with a laser 7 in the wavelength range of 400 to 1100 nm through the transparent substrate. The laser 7 may be applied to the sealing material 5 from the outside of any transparent substrate, but since the sealing material 5 is previously formed on the transparent substrate 1, the laser from the outside of the transparent substrate 2 to the sealing material 5 When 7 is irradiated, sealing can be performed more efficiently. At that time, care must be taken not to irradiate the laser 7 to the organic member 3 incorporated in the electronic component. This is because there is a high possibility that the organic member 3 may be damaged or degraded by the irradiation of the laser 7. The sealing material 5 softens and flows the low melting point glass contained in the sealing material 5 by the irradiation of the laser 7 and bonds the outer peripheral portions of the two transparent substrates 1 and 2.

 また、図2A,2Bに示した電子部品の製法を図6と図7に簡単に示す。図6に示すように、スペーサ6の少なくとも接合面に封止材料5と5Aを形成する。封止材料5及び5Aとなる上記封止材料ペーストを、スペーサ6が少なくとも透明基板と接合される接合面に塗布し、乾燥させる。ガラス製のスペーサ6を用いる場合には、焼成炉或いは400~1100nmの波長範囲にあるレーザ7と7Aで透明基板1,2の両外側から照射することによって、封止材料5及び5Aに含まれる低融点ガラスを軟化流動させ、スペーサ6へ焼成、形成する。樹脂製のスペーサ6を用いる場合には、樹脂の耐熱性が低く、焼成炉を使用できないため、上記レーザ7と7Aの照射によって封止材料5をスペーサ6に焼成、形成する。 Moreover, the manufacturing method of the electronic component shown to FIG. 2A, 2B is simply shown to FIG. 6 and FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, the sealing materials 5 and 5A are formed on at least the bonding surface of the spacer 6. The above-mentioned sealing material paste to be the sealing materials 5 and 5A is applied to the bonding surface where the spacer 6 is to be bonded to at least the transparent substrate, and dried. When the glass spacer 6 is used, it is contained in the sealing materials 5 and 5A by irradiating from both sides of the transparent substrates 1 and 2 with a baking furnace or lasers 7 and 7A in the wavelength range of 400 to 1100 nm. The low melting point glass is softened to flow and fired to form the spacer 6. In the case of using the spacer 6 made of resin, since the heat resistance of the resin is low and the firing furnace can not be used, the sealing material 5 is fired and formed on the spacer 6 by the irradiation of the laser 7 and 7A.

 封止材料5及び5Aを形成したスペーサ6を、図7に示すように、透明基板1と1つ以上の有機部材3を形成したもう一方の透明基板2を対向させた外周部に設置、固定し、400~1100nmの波長範囲にあるレーザ7と7Aを透明基板越しに封止材料5と5Aへ照射する。その際に、上記同様に電子部品に内蔵される有機部材3にレーザ7と7Aが照射されないよう注意しなければならない。封止材料5及び5Aは、上記レーザ7及び7Aの照射によって、封止材料5及び5Aに含まれる低融点ガラスを軟化流動させ、2枚の透明基板1と2の外周部を接合する。透明基板1と2は、400~1100nmの波長範囲の光の反射率が低く、透過率が高ければ、ガラス基板或いは樹脂基板のどちらでもよい。 As shown in FIG. 7, the spacer 6 on which the sealing materials 5 and 5A are formed is installed and fixed on the outer peripheral portion of the transparent substrate 1 and the other transparent substrate 2 on which one or more organic members 3 are formed. Then, the lasers 7 and 7A in the wavelength range of 400 to 1100 nm are irradiated to the sealing materials 5 and 5A through the transparent substrate. At this time, care must be taken not to irradiate the lasers 7 and 7A to the organic member 3 incorporated in the electronic component as described above. The sealing materials 5 and 5A soften and flow the low melting point glass contained in the sealing materials 5 and 5A by the irradiation of the lasers 7 and 7A, and bond the outer peripheral portions of the two transparent substrates 1 and 2. The transparent substrates 1 and 2 may be either a glass substrate or a resin substrate as long as the reflectance of light in the wavelength range of 400 to 1100 nm is low and the transmittance is high.

 以上より、本発明の電子部品及びその製法、並びにそれに用いる封止材料ペーストは、その電子部品に内蔵される有機素子や有機材料に熱的なダメージを与えることなく、電子部品を効率的に製造でき、しかも接着性、ガスバリア性(気密性)及び耐湿性や耐水性が良好なガラス接合層が得られものである。 From the above, the electronic component of the present invention, the method for producing the same, and the sealing material paste used therefor efficiently produce the electronic component without causing thermal damage to the organic element and the organic material incorporated in the electronic component. In addition, it is possible to obtain a glass bonding layer which is excellent in adhesiveness, gas barrier property (air tightness), moisture resistance and water resistance.

 以下、実施例を用いて更に詳細に説明する。ただし、本発明は、ここで取り上げた実施例の記載に限定されることはなく、適宜組み合わせてもよい。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail using examples. However, the present invention is not limited to the description of the embodiments taken here, and may be combined as appropriate.

 本実施例では、封止材料に含まれる低融点ガラスの組成と特性について検討した。実施例を表1~表4、比較例を表5に示す。表1~表5に示した低融点ガラスの作製には、原料として高純度化学研究所製試薬V25、TeO2、P25、Fe23、WO3、MoO3、Nb25、Ta25、MnO2、Sb23、Bi23、ZnO、SrCO3、BaCO3、Ag2O及びK2CO3を用いた。これらの原料を用いて合計200gになるように所定量配合、混合し、白金ルツボに入れ、電気炉にて5~10℃/分の昇温速度で900~1000℃まで加熱し、溶融した。この温度で均一なガラスとするために撹拌しながら原料を2時間保持した。その後、ルツボを取り出し、予め150~200℃に加熱しておいたステンレス板上に原料を流し込んで低融点ガラスを作製した。 In this example, the composition and characteristics of the low melting point glass contained in the sealing material were examined. Examples are shown in Tables 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples are shown in Table 5. For the preparation of the low melting point glasses shown in Tables 1 to 5, as a raw material, reagents V 2 O 5 , TeO 2 , P 2 O 5 , Fe 2 O 3 , WO 3 , MoO 3 , Nb made by High-Purity Chemical Laboratory make as raw materials 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , MnO 2 , Sb 2 O 3 , Bi 2 O 3 , ZnO, SrCO 3 , BaCO 3 , Ag 2 O and K 2 CO 3 were used. Using these raw materials, a predetermined amount was blended and mixed so as to be 200 g in total, placed in a platinum crucible, and heated to 900 to 1000 ° C. at a heating rate of 5 to 10 ° C./min in an electric furnace to melt. The raw material was held for 2 hours while stirring to obtain a uniform glass at this temperature. Thereafter, the crucible was taken out, and the raw material was poured on a stainless steel plate preheated to 150 to 200 ° C. to produce a low melting point glass.

 作製した低融点ガラスをジェットミルで平均粒径が3μm以下になるまで粉砕した。その粉末を用いて5℃/分の昇温速度で500℃まで示差熱分析(DTA)を行うことによって、転移点(Tg)、屈伏点(Mg)、軟化点(Ts)及び結晶化温度(Tcry)を測定した。なお、標準サンプルとしてアルミナ(Al23)粉末を用いた。図8に代表的な低融点ガラスのDTA曲線を示す。図8に示すように、Tgは第一吸熱ピークの開始温度、Mgはそのピーク温度、Tsは第二吸熱ピーク温度、Tcryは結晶化による発熱ピークの開始温度とした。ガラスの特性温度は、粘度により定義され、Tg、Mg及びTsは、粘度がそれぞれ1013.3poise、1011.0poise及び107.65poiseに相当する温度と言われている。ガラスを低温で軟化流動させるためには、極力、Tsを低温化する必要がある。また、熱的な残留歪を緩和するためには、極力、Tgを低温化することが好ましい。Tcryは、ガラスが結晶化を開始する温度である。結晶化は、ガラスの軟化流動性を阻害するため、極力、TcryをTsより高温側にすることが望ましい。 The produced low melting glass was crushed by a jet mill until the average particle size became 3 μm or less. The powder is subjected to differential thermal analysis (DTA) up to 500 ° C. at a heating rate of 5 ° C./min to obtain a transition point (T g ), a deformation point (M g ), a softening point (T s ) and crystals. The crystallization temperature ( Tcry ) was measured. An alumina (Al 2 O 3 ) powder was used as a standard sample. FIG. 8 shows a DTA curve of a typical low melting point glass. As shown in FIG. 8, T g is the start temperature of the first endothermic peak, M g is the peak temperature, T s is the second endothermic peak temperature, and T cry is the start temperature of the exothermic peak due to crystallization. The characteristic temperature of the glass is defined by the viscosity, and T g , M g and T s are said to be temperatures at which the viscosity corresponds to 10 13.3 poise, 10 11.0 poise and 10 7.65 poise, respectively. To glass is softened flow at low temperatures, as much as possible, it is necessary to lower temperature of T s. Further, in order to mitigate the thermal residual strain, as much as possible, it is preferable to cold the T g. Tcry is the temperature at which the glass starts to crystallize. Crystallization, for inhibiting the softening fluidity of the glass, as much as possible, it is preferable that the T cry to the high temperature side than T s.

 作製した低融点ガラスをTg~Mgの温度範囲で熱歪を除去し、4×4×20mmの角柱に加工した。これを用い、熱膨張計で30~250℃の熱膨張係数、転移温度TG及び変形温度ATを測定した。なお、昇温速度は5℃/分とした。また、標準サンプルとしては、φ5×20mmの円柱の石英ガラスを用いた。図9に体表的な低融点ガラスの熱膨張曲線を示す。図9は、標準サンプルである石英ガラスの伸び量は差し引きされている。30~250℃の温度範囲における伸び量の勾配から熱膨張係数を算出した。TGは顕著に伸びが開始する温度、ATは荷重により変形する温度である。TGは上記DTAのTgより若干高めに測定された。ATは上記DTAのMg~Tsの間であった。 The produced low melting point glass was subjected to thermal strain removal in a temperature range of T g to M g and processed into a 4 × 4 × 20 mm prism. Using this, the thermal expansion coefficient of 30 to 250 ° C., transition temperature TG and deformation temperature AT were measured with a thermal expansion meter. The heating rate was 5 ° C./min. Further, as a standard sample, a cylindrical quartz glass of φ5 × 20 mm was used. FIG. 9 shows a thermal expansion curve of a typical low melting point glass. In FIG. 9, the amount of elongation of quartz glass as a standard sample is subtracted. The thermal expansion coefficient was calculated from the gradient of the amount of elongation in the temperature range of 30 to 250.degree. T G is a temperature at which elongation starts significantly, and A T is a temperature at which deformation occurs due to load. T G was measured slightly higher than T g of the above DTA. A T was between M g and T s of the above DTA.

 作製した低融点ガラスの耐湿性試験には、上記熱膨張評価用サンプルの表面を鏡面加工したものを用いた。耐湿性の評価は、温度85℃、湿度85%の条件で10日間実施し、鏡面加工したガラス表面の光沢が維持されている場合には「○」、その光沢が減少した場合には「△」、ガラスが崩壊した場合には「×」と評価した。 In the moisture resistance test of the produced low melting glass, what carried out the mirror surface process of the surface of the said sample for thermal expansion evaluation was used. The evaluation of the moisture resistance is carried out for 10 days under the conditions of a temperature of 85 ° C. and a humidity of 85%, "○" when the gloss of the mirror-finished glass surface is maintained, and "Δ" when the gloss decreases. When the glass collapsed, it was evaluated as "x".

 作製した低融点ガラスの軟化流動性は、上記ジェットミルで粉砕したガラス粉末をハンドプレス(1ton/cm2)により圧粉成形し、そのガラス圧粉成形体に透明基板越しで各種レーザを照射することによって評価した。そのガラス圧粉成形体へのレーザ照射実験の概略を図10に示す。ガラス圧粉成形体8のサイズはφ10×2mmとした。そのガラス圧粉成形体8を透明基板1に乗せ、裏側よりガラス圧粉成形体8の中央部に向けてレーザ7を照射した。透明基板1にはスライドガラスを用いた。また、レーザ7には、405nmの波長の半導体レーザ、532nmの波長のYAGレーザの二倍波、630nmの波長の半導体レーザ、805nmの波長の半導体レーザ及び1064nmの波長のYAGレーザを用いた。軟化流動性の評価は、ガラス圧粉成形体8のレーザ照射部が流動した場合には「○」、流動したが、クラックが多発した場合には「●」、軟化した場合には「△」、軟化したが、クラックが多発した場合には「△△」、流動も軟化もできなかった場合には「×」とした。なお、ガラス圧粉成形体8のレーザ照射部の軟化流動性やクラックの発生状態は、透明基板1越しに光学顕微鏡で観察することによって判定した。 The softness and fluidity of the produced low melting point glass is obtained by compacting the glass powder crushed by the jet mill with a hand press (1 ton / cm 2 ) with a hand press (1 ton / cm 2 ) and irradiating the glass compact with a variety of lasers over the transparent substrate. Evaluated by. The outline of the laser irradiation experiment to the glass compacting body is shown in FIG. The size of the glass green compact 8 was φ10 × 2 mm. The glass compacting body 8 was placed on the transparent substrate 1, and the laser 7 was irradiated toward the central portion of the glass compacting body 8 from the back side. A slide glass was used for the transparent substrate 1. For the laser 7, a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 405 nm, a double wave of a YAG laser with a wavelength of 532 nm, a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 630 nm, a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 805 nm, and a YAG laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm are used. The evaluation of the softness and fluidity was “o” when the laser-irradiated part of the glass green compact 8 flowed, but it flowed, “●” when cracks frequently occurred, and “Δ” when softened. Although it softened, when the crack occurred frequently, it was set as "x" when neither flow nor softening was possible. In addition, the softness | flexibility fluidity | liquidity of the laser irradiation part of the glass compacting body 8 and the generation | occurrence | production state of a crack were determined by observing with the optical microscope through the transparent substrate 1. FIG.

 表1~表4で示した実施例G1~64及び表5で示した比較例G65~80から分かるとおり、実施例G1~64の低融点ガラスは、比較例G67,69,73~76及び78~80の低融点ガラスより軟化点Tsが低く、しかも比較例G68,70~73,77及び78の低融点ガラスより熱膨張係数が小さく、さらに比較例G65~68,70~74,76,78及び80の低融点ガラスより耐湿性が良好であった。また、実施例G1~64の低融点ガラスは、比較例G67,69,73~76及び78~80の低融点ガラスよりレーザ照射による軟化流動性が良好であり、しかも比較例68,70~72及び77の低融点ガラスのように軟化流動性が良くてもクラックが多発することはなかった。 As can be seen from Examples G1 to G4 shown in Tables 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples G 65 to 80 shown in Table 5, the low melting point glasses of Examples G1 to G 64 are Comparative Examples G67, 69, 73 to 76 and 78. The softening point T s is lower than the low melting point glass of ̃80, and the thermal expansion coefficient is smaller than that of the low melting point glasses of Comparative Examples G68, 70 to 73, 77 and 78. Further, Comparative Examples G65 to 68, 70 to 74, 76, Moisture resistance was better than the low melting point glasses of 78 and 80. In addition, the low melting point glass of Example G1 to 64 has better softening flowability by laser irradiation than the low melting point glass of Comparative Examples G67, 69, 73 to 76, and 78 to 80, and Comparative Examples 68, 70 to 72. Even when the softening and fluidity was good as in the low melting point glass of No. 77 and No. 77, cracks did not occur frequently.

 実施例G1~64の低融点ガラスは、酸化バナジウム、酸化テルル、酸化リン及び酸化鉄を含み、次の酸化物換算でV25、TeO2、P25及びFe23の合計が75質量%以上であり、しかもV25>TeO2>P25≧Fe23(質量%)であった。さらに、ガラス成分として、酸化タングステン、酸化モリブデン、酸化ニオブ、酸化タンタル、酸化マンガン、酸化アンチモン、酸化ビスマス、酸化亜鉛、酸化バリウム、酸化ストロンチウム、酸化銀及び酸化カリウムのうちいずれか1種以上を含んでもよく、次の酸化物換算でWO3+MoO3+Nb25+Ta25+MnO2+Sb23+Bi23+ZnO+BaO+SrO+Ag2O+K2O≦25質量%であった。特に有効な組成範囲は、上記条件を満たした上で、次の酸化物換算でV25が35~55質量%であり、TeO2が19~30質量%であり、P25が7~20質量%であり、Fe23が5~15質量%であり、及びWO3、MoO3、Nb25、Ta25、MnO2、Sb23、Bi23、ZnO、SrO、BaO、Ag2O、K2Oのうち1種以上の合計が0~20質量%であった。 The low melting glass of Example G1 to V64 contains vanadium oxide, tellurium oxide, phosphorus oxide and iron oxide, and the total of V 2 O 5 , TeO 2 , P 2 O 5 and Fe 2 O 3 in terms of the following oxides. Was 75% by mass or more, and V 2 O 5 > TeO 2 > P 2 O 5 FeFe 2 O 3 (% by mass). Furthermore, the glass component contains at least one of tungsten oxide, molybdenum oxide, niobium oxide, tantalum oxide, manganese oxide, antimony oxide, bismuth oxide, zinc oxide, barium oxide, strontium oxide, silver oxide and potassium oxide. It may be WO 3 + MoO 3 + Nb 2 O 5 + Ta 2 O 5 + Ta 2 O 5 + MnO 2 + Sb 2 O 3 + Bi 2 O 3 + ZnO 2 + BaO + SrO + Ag 2 O + K 2 O ≦ 25 mass% in terms of the following oxide. A particularly effective composition range is that 35 to 55% by mass of V 2 O 5, 19 to 30% by mass of TeO 2 and P 2 O 5 in terms of the following oxides are satisfied while satisfying the above conditions. 7 to 20% by mass, 5 to 15% by mass of Fe 2 O 3 , and WO 3 , MoO 3 , Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , MnO 2 , Sb 2 O 3 , Bi 2 O 3 And the total of one or more of ZnO, SrO, BaO, Ag 2 O and K 2 O was 0 to 20% by mass.

 また、実施例G1~64の低融点ガラスは、400~1100nmの範囲の波長のレーザを効率よく吸収して加熱され、しかも軟化点Tsが380℃以下と低いため、良好な軟化流動性を示した。さらに、転移点Tgが320℃以下と低く、熱膨張係数が100×10-7/℃以下と比較的に小さいため、レーザ照射によるヒートショックでのクラックが少なかった。 In addition, the low melting glass of Example G1 to 64 efficiently absorbs a laser having a wavelength in the range of 400 to 1100 nm and is heated, and further, since the softening point T s is as low as 380 ° C. or less Indicated. Furthermore, the transition point T g is 320 ° C. or less and low thermal expansion coefficient is relatively small as 100 × 10 -7 / ℃ less, cracks in the heat shock by laser irradiation was small.

 本実施例では、表2で示した実施例G19の低融点ガラスと透明基板としてスライドガラスを用いて、レーザ封止実験を行った。ジェットミルで平均粒径が3μm以下に粉砕したG19の低融点ガラス粉末と、樹脂バインダーと、溶剤とを用いて封止材料ペーストを作製した。樹脂バインダーは、ニトロセルロースを用い、溶剤はブチルカルビトールアセテートを用いた。この封止材料ペーストを用い、スクリーン印刷法にて透明基板の外周部へ図11に示すように封止材料ペーストを塗布し、乾燥後に、大気中380℃で30分間封止材料ペーストを焼成した。透明基板1に形成された封止材料5の線幅を1.5mmとし、その焼成膜厚がそれぞれ約5、10、20、30μmになるように塗布量を変えることによって調整した。図12に示すように、透明基板2を対向して設置し、透明基板1の方向から封止材料5へレーザ7を8mm/秒の速度で移動しながら照射し、透明基板1と2の外周部を接合した。レーザ7は、実施例1で用いた4種類のレーザを使用した。どのサンプルも接合でき、気密性(ガスバリア性)と接着性を評価した。評価結果を表6に示す。 In this example, a laser sealing experiment was performed using the low melting glass of Example G19 shown in Table 2 and a slide glass as a transparent substrate. A sealing material paste was produced using a G19 low melting point glass powder ground to an average particle size of 3 μm or less by a jet mill, a resin binder, and a solvent. The resin binder was nitrocellulose, and the solvent was butyl carbitol acetate. Using the sealing material paste, the sealing material paste was applied to the outer peripheral portion of the transparent substrate by screen printing as shown in FIG. 11, and after drying, the sealing material paste was fired at 380 ° C. for 30 minutes in the air. . The line width of the sealing material 5 formed on the transparent substrate 1 was 1.5 mm, and the thickness of the fired film was adjusted to about 5, 10, 20, and 30 μm by changing the application amount. As shown in FIG. 12, the transparent substrate 2 is installed opposite to each other, and the laser 7 is irradiated while moving at a speed of 8 mm / sec from the direction of the transparent substrate 1 to the sealing material 5. The parts were joined. The laser 7 used was the four types of lasers used in Example 1. All samples were able to be joined and the airtightness (gas barrier property) and adhesiveness were evaluated. The evaluation results are shown in Table 6.

 気密性(ガスバリア性)は、ヘリウムリーク試験を実施し、リークしない場合には「○」、リークした場合には「×」と評価した。また、接着性は、剥離試験を実施し、透明基板や封止材料が破損した場合には「○」、透明基板と封止材料の界面から容易に剥離した場合には「×」と評価した。20μm以下の焼成膜厚の場合には、どのレーザを用いても気密性と接着性は良好であった。しかし、30μmの焼成膜厚では、使用するレーザによって、良好な気密性と接着性が得られない場合があった。532nmと1064nmの波長はYAGレーザを使用しており、YAGレーザは他の半導体レーザより高パワーであるために、良好な気密性と接着性が得られたものと考えられる。半導体レーザは、YAGレーザに比べて大変安価なため、レーザ封止には半導体レーザが使えるに越したことはなく、接合層の厚みは20μm以下が好ましい。 The gas tightness (gas barrier property) was evaluated by carrying out a helium leak test, “o” when not leaking, and “x” when leaked. Also, the adhesiveness was evaluated as a peeling test, and when the transparent substrate and the sealing material were broken, it was evaluated as “○”, and when it was easily peeled from the interface between the transparent substrate and the sealing material, it was evaluated as “×”. . In the case of the fired film thickness of 20 μm or less, the airtightness and adhesiveness were good regardless of which laser was used. However, with the fired film thickness of 30 μm, depending on the laser used, there were cases where good air tightness and adhesiveness could not be obtained. The wavelengths of 532 nm and 1064 nm use YAG lasers, and YAG lasers are considered to have obtained good airtightness and adhesiveness because they have higher power than other semiconductor lasers. Since the semiconductor laser is very inexpensive compared to the YAG laser, it is better than the semiconductor laser can be used for laser sealing, and the thickness of the bonding layer is preferably 20 μm or less.

 しかし、透明基板1と2の両面からレーザを照射すると、30μmの焼成膜厚でも良好な気密性と接着性が得られた。すなわち、接着層の厚みが大きい場合には、こういった方法で対応できる可能性が十分にある。 However, when laser was irradiated from both sides of the transparent substrates 1 and 2, good airtightness and adhesiveness were obtained even with a 30 μm-baked film thickness. That is, when the thickness of the adhesive layer is large, there is a good possibility that it can be coped with by such a method.

 図13に実施例G19の低融点ガラスを焼成した塗膜の透過率曲線を示す。300~2000nmの波長域において、波長が小さいほど透過率が低く、また焼成膜厚が大きいほど、透過率は低下した。表1~表4で示した他の実施例の低融点ガラスも同様な透過率曲線を有することから、同様な効果が得られることは言うまでもない。 The transmittance curve of the coating film which baked the low melting glass of Example G19 in FIG. 13 is shown. In the wavelength range of 300 to 2000 nm, the smaller the wavelength, the lower the transmittance, and the larger the fired film thickness, the lower the transmittance. It goes without saying that the low melting point glasses of the other examples shown in Tables 1 to 4 have similar transmittance curves, so that the same effect can be obtained.

 次に透明基板にポリカーボネートを用いて上記同様にレーザ封止実験を行った。ポリカーボネートは耐熱性についてG19の低融点ガラスより低いため、透明基板に事前に焼成する場合には、805nmの波長の半導体レーザを使用した。このレーザを使用すると、ポリカーボネートをほとんど加熱させることなく、G19の焼成塗膜が得られた。続いて、図12のようにして、各種のレーザを照射して透明基板1と2であるポリカーボネートの外周部を接合して上記同様にして接着性を評価した。透明基板1と2にスライドガラスを用いた場合と同様な結果が得られた。 Next, a laser sealing experiment was conducted in the same manner as described above using polycarbonate as the transparent substrate. Since polycarbonate is lower in heat resistance than the low melting point glass of G19, a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 805 nm was used when firing on a transparent substrate in advance. Using this laser, a fired film of G19 was obtained with almost no heating of the polycarbonate. Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 12, various lasers were irradiated to bond the outer peripheral portions of the polycarbonates which are the transparent substrates 1 and 2, and the adhesion was evaluated in the same manner as described above. The same results as in the case of using slide glass for the transparent substrates 1 and 2 were obtained.

 本実施例では、透明基板に50×10-7/℃の熱膨張係数のガラス基板を用いた。封止材料に含まれる低融点ガラスに表3で示した実施例G43を用いた。さらに封止材料にフィラーとしてリン酸タングステン酸ジルコニウム(Zr2(WO4)(PO4)2)、酸化ニオブ(Nb25)及びシリコン(Si)を用いた。そして、実施例2と同様なレーザ封止実験を実施した。 In this example, a glass substrate having a thermal expansion coefficient of 50 × 10 −7 / ° C. was used as the transparent substrate. Example G43 shown in Table 3 was used for the low melting glass contained in the sealing material. Further, as a filler, zirconium phosphate tungstate (Zr 2 (WO 4 ) (PO 4 ) 2 ), niobium oxide (Nb 2 O 5 ) and silicon (Si) were used as a filler. And the same laser sealing experiment as Example 2 was implemented.

 先ずは、ジェットミルで平均粒径が3μm以下に粉砕したG43の低融点ガラス粉末と、平均粒径が5μm程度のZr2(WO4)(PO4)2、Nb25またはSiのフィラー粒子と、樹脂バインダーと、溶剤とを用いて封止材料ペーストを作製した。また、フィラー粒子の含有量は、G43の低融点ガラス100体積部に対し、それぞれ15、25、35、45体積部とした。使用した低融点ガラスG43の密度は3.53g/cm3、Zr2(WO4)(PO4)2の密度は3.80g/cm3、Nb25の密度は4.57g/cm3、Siの密度は2.33g/cm3であった。また、樹脂バインダーにはエチルセルロース、溶剤にはブチルカルビトールアセテートを用いた。この封止材料ペーストを用い、スクリーン印刷法にて透明基板の外周部へ図11に示すように塗布し、乾燥後に、大気中400℃で30分間焼成した。透明基板1に形成された封止材料5は、1.5mmの線幅、約10μmの膜厚を有した。 First, a low melting point glass powder of G43 ground to an average particle size of 3 μm or less by a jet mill, and a filler of Zr 2 (WO 4 ) (PO 4 ) 2 , Nb 2 O 5 or Si having an average particle size of about 5 μm. The sealing material paste was produced using particles, a resin binder, and a solvent. In addition, the content of the filler particles was 15, 25, 35, and 45 parts by volume with respect to 100 parts by volume of the G43 low melting glass, respectively. The density of the low-melting glass G43 used was 3.53g / cm 3, Zr 2 ( WO 4) (PO 4) 2 of the density 3.80g / cm 3, Nb 2 density of O 5 is 4.57 g / cm 3 The density of Si was 2.33 g / cm 3 . Further, ethyl cellulose was used as a resin binder, and butyl carbitol acetate was used as a solvent. The sealing material paste was applied to the outer peripheral portion of the transparent substrate by screen printing as shown in FIG. 11, dried, and fired at 400 ° C. for 30 minutes in the air. The sealing material 5 formed on the transparent substrate 1 had a line width of 1.5 mm and a film thickness of about 10 μm.

 図12に示すように、透明基板2を対向して設置し、透明基板1の方向から封止材料5へ波長が805nmの半導体レーザ7を8mm/秒の速度で移動しながら照射し、透明基板1と2の外周部を接合した。実施例2と同様にして気密性(ガスバリア性)と接着性を評価した。その評価結果を表7に示す。 As shown in FIG. 12, the transparent substrate 2 is installed opposite to each other, and the semiconductor laser 7 having a wavelength of 805 nm is moved from the direction of the transparent substrate 1 to the sealing material 5 while moving at a speed of 8 mm / sec. The outer peripheral parts of 1 and 2 were joined. The air tightness (gas barrier property) and adhesion were evaluated in the same manner as in Example 2. The evaluation results are shown in Table 7.

 本実施例のように透明基板1と2に使用した上記ガラス基板と低融点ガラスG43の熱膨張差が大きい場合は、封止材料5にフィラーを含有することで封止材料5の熱膨張係数を下げることができるので、クラックの発生を防止し、良好な接着性と気密性を得ることができる。本実施例ではZr2(WO4)(PO4)2、Nb25またはSiのフィラーを含有させた。フィラーの含有によって良好な気密性と接着性が得られた。フィラーの含有量が45体積部になると、透明基板1と2を接合するための低融点ガラスG43の含有率が少なくなってしまうため他の例と比較して接着性は劣ったものの、良好な気密性は維持されていた。 When the difference in thermal expansion between the glass substrate and the low melting point glass G43 used for the transparent substrates 1 and 2 is large as in this embodiment, the filler is contained in the sealing material 5 so that the thermal expansion coefficient of the sealing material 5 is obtained. As a result, the occurrence of cracks can be prevented and good adhesion and airtightness can be obtained. In this example, a filler of Zr 2 (WO 4 ) (PO 4 ) 2 , Nb 2 O 5 or Si is contained. The inclusion of the filler resulted in good air tightness and adhesion. When the content of the filler is 45 parts by volume, the content of the low melting point glass G43 for bonding the transparent substrates 1 and 2 is decreased, and although the adhesion is inferior as compared with the other examples, it is good. Airtightness was maintained.

 以上より、透明基板1と2をレーザで気密かつ強固に接合するには、封止材料5に含まれるフィラー粒子の含有量は、低融点ガラス100体積部に対して、35体積部以下が好ましいと考えられる。本実施例では、フィラー粒子として本低融点ガラスとぬれ性がよいZr2(WO4)(PO4)2、Nb25及びSiを選定して検討した。フィラー粒子は、これらに限られたものではなく、小さい熱膨張係数のβ-ユークリプタイト、コージェライト、リン酸ジルコニウム、ケイ酸ジルコニウム等も使用することができる。 As mentioned above, in order to join the transparent substrates 1 and 2 airtightly and firmly with a laser, as for content of the filler particle contained in the sealing material 5, 35 volume parts or less are preferable with respect to 100 volume parts of low melting glass. it is conceivable that. In this example, Zr 2 (WO 4 ) (PO 4 ) 2 , Nb 2 O 5 and Si having good wettability with the present low melting point glass as filler particles were selected and examined. The filler particles are not limited to these, and β-eucryptite having a small thermal expansion coefficient, cordierite, zirconium phosphate, zirconium silicate and the like can also be used.

 透明基板1と2の間隔が100μm以上あると、実施例2で示した製法では両面からレーザを照射しても、封止材料5にクラックが発生したり、また封止材料5に含まれる本低融点ガラスの軟化流動性が不十分であったりして、良好な気密性と接着性が得られなかった。そこで、本実施例では、図2A,2Bで示したように透明基板1と2の間にスペーサ6を介して接合した。透明基板1と2及びスペーサ6には、透過率の高い白板ガラスを用い、図6と図7で示した製法で透明基板1と2を接合した。封止材料5と5Aに実施例3と同様に表3で示したG43の低融点ガラス粉末100体積部及びZr2(WO4)(PO4)2フィラー粒子10体積部と、エチルセルロースとブチルカルビトールアセテートからなる封止材料ペーストを用いて、図6で示したようにスペーサ6に封止材料ペーストを塗布し、乾燥後に大気中400℃で20分間封止材料ペーストを焼成した。焼成膜厚はそれぞれ15μmであった。なお、スペーサ6の幅は3mm固定とし、厚みをそれぞれ70,320,500,1000μmとした。封止材料5と5Aの厚みを加えるとそれぞれ100,350,530,1030μmである。それらをそれぞれ図7で示したように4辺の外周部に設置し、透明基板1と2の両面から波長が630nmの半導体レーザ7,7Aを照射して接合した。レーザの送り速度は、8mm/秒とした。その接着性を実施例2と同様にして評価した。どの厚みのスペーサ6を用いた場合にも良好な接着性が得られ、透明基板1と2の間隔が大きい場合には、スペーサ6を活用することは有効であることが分かった。 If the distance between the transparent substrates 1 and 2 is 100 μm or more, a crack is generated in the sealing material 5 even if the laser is irradiated from both sides in the manufacturing method shown in Example 2, The softening flowability of the low melting point glass was insufficient, and good air tightness and adhesion could not be obtained. Therefore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the transparent substrates 1 and 2 are bonded via the spacer 6. The transparent substrates 1 and 2 were joined to the transparent substrates 1 and 2 and the spacer 6 by the manufacturing method shown to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 using the white plate glass with high transmittance | permeability. 100 parts by volume of the low melting point glass powder of G43 and 10 parts by volume of Zr 2 (WO 4 ) (PO 4 ) 2 filler particles shown in Table 3 as in Example 3 for the sealing materials 5 and 5A, and ethylcellulose and butylcarbi The sealing material paste was applied to the spacer 6 as shown in FIG. 6 using a sealing material paste consisting of tol acetate, and after drying, the sealing material paste was fired at 400 ° C. in the air for 20 minutes. The fired film thickness was 15 μm each. The width of the spacer 6 was fixed at 3 mm, and the thickness was 70, 320, 500, and 1000 μm, respectively. The thicknesses of the sealing materials 5 and 5A are respectively 100, 350, 530, and 1030 μm. As shown in FIG. 7, they were placed on the outer circumferences of the four sides, and both sides of the transparent substrates 1 and 2 were irradiated with semiconductor lasers 7 and 7A having a wavelength of 630 nm for bonding. The feed rate of the laser was 8 mm / sec. The adhesion was evaluated in the same manner as in Example 2. It was found that good adhesion was obtained regardless of the thickness of the spacer 6, and it was effective to use the spacer 6 when the distance between the transparent substrates 1 and 2 was large.

 本実施例では、有機発光ダイオード(OLED)が多数内蔵されたディスプレイを作製し、評価した。このOLEDディスプレイは、図1A,1Bで示した構造を有している。内蔵される有機素子3であるOLEDは、水分や酸素により劣化しやすいことから、本低融点ガラスを含む封止材料5で透明基板1と2の外周部を気密かつ強固に接合することは大変有効である。本実施例は、透明基板1と2に液晶ディスプレイに使われる無アルカリガラスを用いた。透明基板1の外周部には、表4で示したG55の低融点ガラス粉末100体積部及びZr2(WO4)(PO4)2フィラー粒子20体積部、Siフィラー粒子10体積部、エチルセルロースとブチルカルビトールアセテートからなる封止材料ペーストを用いて、図3A,3Bに示したように透明基板1の外周部に封止材料ペーストを塗布し、乾燥後に大気中400℃で30分間封止材料ペーストを焼成し、封止材料5を形成した。形成した封止材料は、幅を2.5mm、焼成膜厚を10μmとなるようにした。一方、透明基板2に画素数に対応した多数のOLEDを図4A,4Bに示したように形成した。その透明基板2と上記透明基板1を図5に示したように対向させて、透明基板1の方向から封止材料5に向けてレーザ7を照射した。レーザ7は、805nmの波長の半導体レーザを用い、8mm/秒の速度で外周部を移動させ、透明基板1と2の外周部を接合した。 In this example, a display including a large number of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) was fabricated and evaluated. This OLED display has the structure shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B. Since the OLED which is the built-in organic element 3 is easily deteriorated by moisture and oxygen, it is very difficult to airtightly and firmly bond the outer peripheral portions of the transparent substrates 1 and 2 with the sealing material 5 containing the low melting point glass. It is valid. In this example, non-alkali glass used for a liquid crystal display was used for the transparent substrates 1 and 2. 100 parts by volume of low melting point glass powder of G55 shown in Table 4 and 20 parts by volume of Zr 2 (WO 4 ) (PO 4 ) 2 filler particles shown in Table 4, 10 parts by volume of Si filler particles, and ethyl cellulose The sealing material paste is applied to the outer peripheral portion of the transparent substrate 1 as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B using a sealing material paste made of butyl carbitol acetate, and after drying, the sealing material for 30 minutes at 400 ° C. in the air. The paste was fired to form a sealing material 5. The formed sealing material had a width of 2.5 mm and a fired film thickness of 10 μm. On the other hand, a large number of OLEDs corresponding to the number of pixels were formed on the transparent substrate 2 as shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B. The transparent substrate 2 and the transparent substrate 1 were made to face each other as shown in FIG. 5, and the laser 7 was irradiated toward the sealing material 5 from the direction of the transparent substrate 1. The laser 7 used the semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 805 nm, moved the outer peripheral portion at a speed of 8 mm / sec, and bonded the outer peripheral portions of the transparent substrates 1 and 2.

 作製直後のOLEDディスプレイの点灯試験を行った結果、問題なく、点灯することを確認した。また、接合部の接着性も良好であった。次にこのディスプレイを85℃-85%Rh-10日間、25日間及び50日間の条件で高温高湿試験を実施し、点灯試験を行った。比較として樹脂で接合したOLEDディスプレイも入れた。なお、この樹脂接合層の幅は3mm、厚みは10μmとした。10日間の高温高湿試験では、どちらのOLEDディスプレイともに問題なく点灯したが、樹脂で接合したディスプレイは25日間以降の点灯で大きな劣化が発生した。これは、樹脂接合部よりディスプレイ内部に水分や酸素が導入されてしまい、OLEDが劣化したためである。一方、本発明は50日間の高温高湿試験でも、OLEDの点灯には劣化が認められず、良好な試験結果となった。これは良好な気密性が維持されていることを示唆した結果である。さらに高温高湿試験後の接合部の接着性も評価した結果、樹脂で接合したような大きな低下は認められず、試験前とほぼ同等であった。 As a result of conducting a lighting test of the OLED display immediately after preparation, it was confirmed that the lighting did not occur. Also, the adhesion of the joint was good. Next, the display was subjected to a high temperature and high humidity test under the conditions of 85 ° C. and 85% Rh for 10 days, 25 days and 50 days, and a lighting test was performed. A resin bonded OLED display was also included as a comparison. The resin bonding layer had a width of 3 mm and a thickness of 10 μm. In the 10-day high-temperature and high-humidity test, although both OLED displays turned on without any problem, the display joined with the resin was greatly deteriorated by lighting after 25 days. This is because moisture and oxygen were introduced into the inside of the display from the resin junction and the OLED was degraded. On the other hand, according to the present invention, no deterioration was found in the lighting of the OLED even in a 50-day high-temperature and high-humidity test, and good results were obtained. This is a result suggesting that good airtightness is maintained. Further, as a result of evaluating the adhesion of the joint after the high temperature and high humidity test, a large decrease as in the resin joint was not observed, and it was almost the same as before the test.

 以上より、本発明はOLEDディスプレイに有効に適用できることが分かった。また、OLEDが搭載される照明器具等の電子部品にも展開できることは、言うまでもない。 From the above, it has been found that the present invention can be effectively applied to an OLED display. Further, it goes without saying that the invention can also be applied to electronic parts such as lighting fixtures on which the OLED is mounted.

 本実施例では、有機色素が内蔵された色素増感型太陽電池を作製し、評価した。一般に、この太陽電池は、有機色素の分子が多数のチタニア(TiO2)ナノ粒子の表面に形成され、その色素に光が照射されると、励起された電子がTiO2へ注入され、そのナノ粒子内を拡散しながら電極に到達する。一方、対極では、電子が電界質に注入され、ヨウ素(I)が還元される。これにより発電できる。色素増感型太陽電池は、非真空、低温プロセス及びシリコンを使わないことから、低コスト化に有効であるが、信頼性に大きな課題がある。その信頼性を改善するには、封止技術がキーとなる。耐熱性が低い有機色素や電界質が使われるため、封止はそれらの耐熱温度以下の低温で行う必要があり、樹脂による封止が一般的である。しかし、樹脂封止は、長期信頼性を確保できないという大きな課題がある。 In this example, a dye-sensitized solar cell incorporating an organic dye was produced and evaluated. In general, in this solar cell, organic dye molecules are formed on the surface of a large number of titania (TiO 2 ) nanoparticles, and when the dye is irradiated with light, excited electrons are injected into TiO 2 to form nano-sized particles. It reaches the electrode while diffusing in the particle. On the other hand, at the counter electrode, electrons are injected into the electrolyte to reduce iodine (I). Power can be generated by this. Dye-sensitized solar cells are effective for cost reduction because they do not use non-vacuum, low-temperature processes and silicon, but there are major problems in reliability. Sealing technology is the key to improving its reliability. Since an organic dye or an electrolyte having low heat resistance is used, sealing needs to be performed at a low temperature equal to or lower than the heat resistance temperature, and resin sealing is generally used. However, resin sealing has a big problem that long-term reliability can not be secured.

 本発明を実施例5と同様にして色素増感型太陽電池の封止に適用した。透明基板1と2には、高い透過率の白板ガラスを用いた。透明基板1への封止材料5の形成は、実施例4と同じ封止材料ペーストと同じ焼成条件を用いて行った。透明基板2の方には、有機色素等を多数内蔵したセルを形成或いは設置し、実施例5と同様にして透明基板1と2の外周部をレーザの照射によって接合した。封止材料5により透明基板1と2は強固に接合できており、接着性は良好であった。また、実施例5と同様な高温高湿試験によっても問題がなく、良好な気密性が維持されていた。しかも、高温高湿試験後の接着性も良好であった。さらに、接合部のヨウ素(I)による腐食も認められなかった。しかし、電極がヨウ素(I)によって腐食されていた。このことから、色素増感型太陽電池の封止の他、本発明による低融点ガラスは、電極の被覆にも展開できる。 The present invention was applied to sealing of a dye-sensitized solar cell in the same manner as in Example 5. For the transparent substrates 1 and 2, white sheet glass with high transmittance was used. The formation of the sealing material 5 on the transparent substrate 1 was performed using the same sealing material paste and the same baking conditions as in Example 4. A cell containing a large number of organic dyes and the like was formed or placed in the transparent substrate 2 side, and the peripheral portions of the transparent substrates 1 and 2 were joined by laser irradiation in the same manner as in Example 5. The transparent substrates 1 and 2 were able to be joined firmly by the sealing material 5, and adhesiveness was favorable. Moreover, there was no problem even in the same high temperature and high humidity test as in Example 5, and good airtightness was maintained. Moreover, the adhesion after the high temperature and high humidity test was also good. Furthermore, no corrosion of the joint due to iodine (I) was observed. However, the electrode was corroded by iodine (I). From this, in addition to the sealing of the dye-sensitized solar cell, the low melting glass according to the present invention can be expanded to the coating of an electrode.

 以上より、本発明は、色素増感型太陽電池に有効に適用できることが分かった。また、色素増感型太陽電池に限らず、有機太陽電池等の電子部品にも展開できることは、言うま
でもない。
From the above, it has been found that the present invention can be effectively applied to dye-sensitized solar cells. Further, it goes without saying that the invention can be applied not only to dye-sensitized solar cells but also to electronic components such as organic solar cells.

 本実施例では、多数の光電変換素子が内蔵され、樹脂で張り合わせた太陽電池を作製し、評価した。光電変換素子としては、単結晶シリコン基板を用いた両面受光セルを使用した。また、これらのセルはタブ線によって直列的に接続される。従来は、2枚の透明基板の間にEVAシートによって張り合わせられ、端部がアルミ枠と樹脂の封止材料で固定されている。透明基板には、一般に透過率の高い白板ガラスが適用される。太陽電池の後発事故のほとんどは、内部に浸透してくる水が原因である。EVAシートは高いガスバリア性(気密性)を有しておらず、水分が徐々に長い年月をかけて浸透し、その水分によってセル間を接続しているタブ線やその接続部、そしてセルに形成された電極が腐食されて断線してしまうことがある。このため、水分が浸透しないにすることは、太陽電池の長期信頼性を確保する上で非常に重要である。 In this example, a large number of photoelectric conversion elements were incorporated, and a solar cell bonded with a resin was manufactured and evaluated. As a photoelectric conversion element, a double-sided light receiving cell using a single crystal silicon substrate was used. Also, these cells are connected in series by tab lines. Conventionally, an EVA sheet is pasted between two transparent substrates, and the end is fixed by an aluminum frame and a resin sealing material. In general, white sheet glass with high transmittance is applied to the transparent substrate. Most of the solar cell's subsequent accidents are caused by the water that penetrates inside. EVA sheets do not have high gas barrier properties (airtightness), and moisture permeates over many years gradually, and the tab wires connecting between cells with the moisture and the connections, and the cells The formed electrode may be corroded and broken. For this reason, it is very important to ensure that the water does not penetrate, in order to ensure the long-term reliability of the solar cell.

 本実施例では、透明基板に上記白板ガラス、張り合わせる樹脂にEVAシートを用いた。使用した両面受光セルの厚みが両面の電極分を含み約250μm、EVAシートによる貼り付け層がセル両面で250μm程度あったため、図2A,2Bで示したようにスペーサを介して接合することにした。透明基板1と2の間隔が約500μmとなるため、スペーサ6としては、幅が3.5mm、厚みが470μmの白板ガラスを用いた。封止材料ペーストとしては、表4で示したG55の低融点ガラス粉末、Siフィラー粒子、エチルセルロース及びブチルカルビトールアセテートを用いて作製した。Siフィラー粒子の含有量は、G55の低融点ガラス100体積部に対し15体積部とした。先ずは、透明基板1の外周部とスペーサ6の片面にスクリーン印刷法にて幅3mmで封止材料ペーストをそれぞれ塗布し、乾燥させた。乾燥後、大気中400℃で30分間封止材料ペーストを焼成し、封止材料5を透明基板1に、封止材料5Aをスペーサに形成した。その際の焼成膜厚はそれぞれ15μmであった。封止材料5Aを形成したスペーサ6を透明基板2に設置し、加重をかけるとともに大気中400℃で30分間加熱することによって、封止材料5Aでスペーサ6と透明基板2とを接着した。その際に角の気密性を確保するために、スペーサ6同士のつなぎ目に上記G55の低融点ガラスペーストを施し、同時に焼成した。以上のように作製した透明基板1と2の間に、封止材料5とスペーサ6が向き合うようにして、タブ線で接続したいくつかの両面受光セルを設置し、EVAシートによって張り合わせた。次に透明基板1側より805nmの波長の半導体レーザを8mm/秒の速度で外周部を移動させ、透明基板1と2をスペーサ6を介して封止材料5と5Aで接合した。封止材料5と5Aの気密性、接着性はともに良好であった。樹脂の封止材料に比べ、より長期的な信頼性が確保できることは言うまでもない。 In this example, the white sheet glass was used for the transparent substrate, and an EVA sheet was used for the resin to be bonded. Since the thickness of the double-sided light receiving cell used was about 250 μm including the electrode part on both sides and the bonding layer made of EVA sheet was about 250 μm on both sides of the cell, it was decided to join through the spacer as shown in FIGS. . Since the distance between the transparent substrates 1 and 2 is about 500 μm, a white sheet glass having a width of 3.5 mm and a thickness of 470 μm was used as the spacer 6. The sealing material paste was prepared using the low melting point glass powder of G55 shown in Table 4, Si filler particles, ethyl cellulose and butyl carbitol acetate. The content of the Si filler particles was 15 parts by volume with respect to 100 parts by volume of the low melting point glass of G55. First, a sealing material paste was applied to the outer peripheral portion of the transparent substrate 1 and one side of the spacer 6 with a width of 3 mm by screen printing, and dried. After drying, the sealing material paste was fired at 400 ° C. in the atmosphere for 30 minutes to form the sealing material 5 on the transparent substrate 1 and the sealing material 5A on the spacer. The fired film thickness at that time was 15 μm respectively. The spacer 6 on which the sealing material 5A was formed was placed on the transparent substrate 2 and was weighted and heated at 400 ° C. in the atmosphere for 30 minutes to bond the spacer 6 and the transparent substrate 2 with the sealing material 5A. At that time, in order to secure the airtightness of the corners, the low melting point glass paste of G55 was applied to the joint of the spacers 6 and simultaneously fired. Between the transparent substrates 1 and 2 produced as described above, several double-sided light receiving cells connected by tab wires were set so that the sealing material 5 and the spacer 6 face each other, and they were bonded by an EVA sheet. Next, the semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 805 nm was moved from the transparent substrate 1 side at a speed of 8 mm / sec, and the transparent substrates 1 and 2 were bonded with the sealing material 5 and 5A via the spacer 6. The airtightness and adhesion of the sealing materials 5 and 5A were both good. It goes without saying that long-term reliability can be ensured as compared with a resin sealing material.

 本実施例では、両面受光SiセルとEVAシートを用いた太陽電池に関して説明したが、樹脂を用いてセルや透明基板を接着、固定するような太陽電池全般に適用できるものである。たとえば、薄膜太陽電池にも展開できる。 Although this embodiment has been described with respect to a solar cell using a double-sided light receiving Si cell and an EVA sheet, the present invention can be applied to general solar cells in which a cell and a transparent substrate are adhered and fixed using a resin. For example, it can be applied to thin film solar cells.

 以上、本発明を適用したOLEDディスプレイ、色素増感型太陽電池、Si太陽電池について説明した。一方、本発明はこれらに限られず、低い耐熱性の有機素子や有機材料を内蔵した電子部品全般に適用でき、その電子部品の信頼性を著しく向上できるものである。 The OLED display, the dye-sensitized solar cell, and the Si solar cell to which the present invention is applied have been described above. On the other hand, the present invention is not limited to the above, and can be applied to low heat resistant organic elements and electronic components in general containing an organic material, and the reliability of the electronic components can be remarkably improved.
