- FIG.1 (b) is the sectional view on the AA line of Fig.1 (a). is there.
- the stretchable circuit board 1 illustrated in FIGS. 1A and 1B includes a base 2 having stretchability, a wire 4 positioned on the first surface 2 a side of the base 2, and a first base 2.
- An adjustment layer 3 having a Young's modulus smaller than that of the wiring 4 is provided, which is located on the side of the surface 2 a and in the wiring region 21 where the wiring 4 is located. In FIGS. 1A and 1B, the adjustment layer 3 is located between the base 2 and the wiring 4.
- the adjustment layer 3 may be located on the surface opposite to the surface of the wiring 4 on the base 2 side. Further, in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the adjustment layer 3 is located on the entire surface of the base 2 on the first surface 2a side, and is adjacent to not only the wiring region 21 but also the wiring region 21. It is also located in the functional member region 22 in which the sexing member 5 is mounted. The adjustment layer 3 may be located at least in the wiring area 21.
- the stretchable circuit board 1 can have the functional member 5 on the first surface 2 a side of the base material 2.

- the direction from the peak to the valley in the bellows-shaped part that is, the direction in which the peaks and valleys of the bellows-shaped part repeatedly appear may be referred to as a first direction.
- the wiring 4 extends in parallel to the first direction D1.
- the wire has a bellows shape. Since the substrate has stretchability, when the stretchable circuit substrate is stretched, the substrate can be stretched by elastic deformation. Here, if the wiring is similarly elongated by elastic deformation, the total length of the wiring increases and the cross-sectional area of the wiring decreases, so the resistance value of the wiring increases. In addition, it is conceivable that damage such as a crack may occur in the wiring due to elastic deformation of the wiring. On the other hand, since the wire has the bellows-shaped portion, when the base material extends, the wire is deformed to reduce the undulation of the bellows-shaped portion, that is, the bellows shape is eliminated. By this, it is possible to follow the extension of the substrate.
- the degree of the deformation is caused by the variation in substrate elongation at the time of elongation, the difference in the distribution density of the metal thin film on the substrate, etc. Then, it will vary depending on the position.

Therefore, stress is likely to be concentrated at a portion where the degree of bending or bending occurring in the wiring is locally large. In places where stress is concentrated in the wiring, breakage such as breakage may occur, or the resistance value may increase when the stretchable circuit board is repeatedly expanded and contracted.
- the wiring area on the first surface side of the base material has a Young's modulus smaller than that of the wiring, that is, an adjustment layer that is softer and easier to deform than the wiring is positioned. Can be dispersed. Therefore, even when the degree of bending or bending generated in the wiring locally increases, it is possible to reduce the stress concentration at the portion where the degree of bending or bending is locally large. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress that the wiring is damaged or that the resistance value of the wiring is increased when the stretchable circuit board is repeatedly expanded and contracted.

また、「基材の第1面側に位置する調整層」とは、調整層が基材の第1面に直接位置していてもよく、調整層が基材の第1面に他の部材を介して間接的に位置していてもよいことをいう。
なお、基材の第1面側に位置する部材については、上記の基材の第1面側に位置する配線および基材の第1面側に位置する調整層と同様とすることができる。
本態様における調整層は、典型的には、基材の第1面側に位置し、かつ、配線領域に位置し、基材の第1面の法線方向における山部及び谷部が基材の第1面の面内方向に沿って繰り返し現れる蛇腹形状部を有し、配線よりも小さいヤング率を有する部材である。
また、調整層のヤング率は、伸縮性を有する基材のヤング率の1倍超とすることができ、好ましくは1.1倍以上であり、より好ましくは2倍以上である。また、調整層のヤング率は、伸縮性を有する基材のヤング率の100倍以下とすることができ、好ましくは10倍以下である。
調整層のヤング率が小さすぎても大きすぎても、応力集中を低減することが困難になる場合があるからである。
調整層のヤング率の測定方法としては、調整層のサンプルを用いて、JIS K6251に準拠して引張試験を実施するという方法を採用することができる。また、調整層のヤング率を求める方法としては、ISO14577に準拠してナノインデーション法による測定方法を採用することもできる。具体的には、調整層のヤング率は、ナノインデンターを用いて測定することができる。調整層のサンプルを準備する方法としては、伸縮性回路基板から調整層の一部をサンプルとして取り出す方法や、伸縮性回路基板を構成する前の調整層の一部をサンプルとして取り出す方法が挙げられる。その他にも、調整層のヤング率を求める方法として、調整層を構成する材料を分析し、材料の既存のデータベースに基づいて調整層のヤング率を求めるという方法を採用することもできる。
なお、配線、伸縮性を有する基材、および支持基材等の各部材のヤング率を求める方法は、上記調整層のヤング率を求める方法と同様である。また、これらのヤング率を算出する方法は、部材の形態により適宜適した規格を用いてもよい。例えば、後述する伸縮制御部や支持基材においてはASTM D882に準拠して引張試験を実施するという方法を採用することができる。

ここで、伸縮性回路基板においては、蛇腹形状部の山部の高さが、基材の厚みのばらつきや、基材に設けられる配線の分布密度の差等に起因して、局所的に大きくなることがある。例えば、配線と機能性部材との境界近傍において、配線に大きな山部が生じることがある。この場合、配線と機能性部材との間の電気接合部に大きな応力が加わり、電気接合部が破壊してしまうおそれがある。
これに対し、調整層が、配線領域および機能性部材領域に連続して位置していることにより、配線と機能性部材との境界近傍において、配線に大きな山部が生じるのを抑制することができる。これにより、配線と機能性部材との間の電気接合部が破壊するのを抑制することができる。なお、後述する機能性部材周囲領域は、配線領域の一部として捉えることもできる。
また、本態様の伸縮性回路基板が、基材および配線の間に支持基材を有する場合には、例えば、調整層3は、図3(a)に示すように支持基材7と配線4との間に位置していてもよく、図3(b)、(d)に示すように配線4の支持基材7側の面とは反対側の面に位置していてもよく、図3(c)に示すように基材2と支持基材7との間に位置していてもよい。また、調整層が基材と支持基材との間に位置している場合において、本態様の伸縮性回路基板が基材および支持基材の間に接着層を有する場合、調整層3は、図3(c)に示すように接着層6と支持基材7との間に位置することができる。また、図4に示すように支持基材7は、配線4の基材2側の面とは反対側の面に位置していてもよい。
ここで、粘着性を有さないとは、調整層の粘着力が0.01N/25mm以下であることをいい、好ましくは0.005N/25mm以下、より好ましくは0.001N/25mm以下である。
分子接着層の配置方法としては、例えば、基材の第1面、および、調整層の基材と対向する面を、分子接着剤により表面修飾する方法が挙げられる。
本態様における配線は、基材の第1面側に位置し、基材の第1面の法線方向における山部及び谷部が基材の第1面の面内方向に沿って繰り返し現れる蛇腹形状部を有し、導電性を有する部材である。
なお、蛇腹形状部の周期は、図6に示す符号Fで示されるような、第1方向D1における、隣り合う山部の間隔である。
なお、配線のヤング率を求める方法は、上記調整層のヤング率を求める方法と同様である。
配線に用いられる伸縮性を有する材料としては、例えば、導電性粒子およびエラストマーを含有する導電性組成物が挙げられる。すなわち、導電性粒子およびエラストマーを含む配線とすることができる。導電性粒子としては、配線に使用できるものであればよく、例えば、金、銀、銅、ニッケル、パラジウム、白金、カーボン等の粒子が挙げられる。中でも、銀粒子が好ましく用いられる。また、エラストマーとしては、一般的な熱可塑性エラストマーおよび熱硬化性エラストマーを用いることができ、例えば、スチレン系エラストマー、アクリル系エラストマー、オレフィン系エラストマー、ウレタン系エラストマー、シリコーンゴム、ウレタンゴム、フッ素ゴム、ニトリルゴム、ポリブタジエン、ポリクロロプレンが挙げられる。
例えば、配線の材料が伸縮性を有さない場合、配線の厚みは、25nm以上とすることができ、50nm以上であることが好ましく、100nm以上であることがより好ましい。また、この場合、配線の厚みは、50μm以下とすることができ、10μm以下であることが好ましく、5μm以下であることがより好ましい。
また、配線の材料が伸縮性を有する場合、配線の厚みは、5μm以上とすることができ、10μm以上であることが好ましく、20μm以上であることがより好ましい。また、この場合、配線の厚みは、60μm以下とすることができ、50μm以下であることが好ましく、40μm以下であることがより好ましい。
本態様における基材は、伸縮性を有する部材である。基材は、配線側に位置する第1面と、第1面の反対側に位置する第2面と、を含む。また、基材は、例えば、板状の部材であってもよい。
なお、復元率は、幅25mmの試験片を準備し、試験片を50%伸長して1時間保持した後、伸長を解放して1時間放置して復元させ、下記の計算式により求めることができる。
復元率(%)=(伸長直後の長さ-復元後の長さ)÷(伸長直後の長さ-引張前の長さ)×100
なお、伸長直後の長さとは、50%伸長した状態の長さをいう。
なお、基材のヤング率を求める方法は、上記調整層のヤング率を求める方法と同様である。
図7(a)において、符号S4は、配線領域21のうち蛇腹形状部30に重なる部分において基材2の第2面2bに現れる山部213及び谷部214の振幅を表す。第2面2bの振幅S4は、第1面2aの振幅S3と同一であってもよく、異なっていてもよい。例えば、第2面2bの振幅S4が、第1面2aの振幅S3よりも小さくてもよい。例えば、第2面2bの振幅S4が、第1面2aの振幅S3の0.9倍以下であってもよく、0.6倍以下であってもよい。また、第2面2bの振幅S4は、第1面2aの振幅S3の0.1倍以上であってもよく、0.2倍以上であってもよい。基材2の厚みが小さい場合、第1面2aの振幅S3に対する第2面2bの振幅S4の比率が大きくなり易い。なお、「基材2の第2面2bの山部213及び谷部214の振幅が、第1面2aの山部211及び谷部212の振幅よりも小さい」とは、基材2の第2面2bに山部及び谷部が現れない場合を含む概念である。
本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、基材の第1面側に位置し、かつ、配線領域に隣接し、機能性部材が搭載される機能性部材領域に位置する機能性部材を有することができる。
また、機能性部材および配線を接続する電気接合部を補強するため、機能性部材の周囲をポッティング剤等の樹脂で覆うことができる。これにより、機能性部材および配線の電気接合部の機械的な信頼性を向上させることができる。
本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、基材と配線との間に、支持基材を有していてもよい。また、本態様の伸縮性回路基板が機能性部材を有する場合には、基材と配線および機能性部材との間に、支持基材を有することができる。支持基材は、配線および機能性部材を支持する部材である。例えば、図3(a)~(d)は、伸縮性回路基板1が、基材2と配線4および機能性部材5との間に支持基材7を有する例である。
また、支持基材のヤング率は、基材のヤング率の100倍以下であってもよい。
なお、支持基材のヤング率を求める方法は、上記調整層のヤング率を求める方法と同様である。
なお、以下、支持基材および基材の間に位置する接着層を、第2の接着層と称する場合がある。
分子接着層については、上記第1の接着層と同様とすることができる。
本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、基材の第1面側、基材の第2面側、または基材の内部に位置し、かつ、配線領域に位置し、蛇腹形状部の山部及び谷部が繰り返し現れる第1方向に沿って並ぶ複数の伸縮制御部を有することができる。なお、以下、この伸縮制御部を第1の伸縮制御部と称する場合がある。
第1の伸縮制御部は、基材の伸縮を制御するために設けられる部材である。
第1の伸縮制御部の第2周期は、例えば、蛇腹形状部の第1周期のm倍又は1/nとすることができる。ここで、m及びnは正の整数である。好ましくは、mは3以下であり、nは4以下である。第1の伸縮制御部の第2周期は、例えば5μm以上、10mm以下とすることができる。
この場合、第1の伸縮制御部のヤング率は、例えば基材のヤング率の1.1倍以上、5000倍以下とすることができ、好ましくは10倍以上、3000倍以下である。このような第1の伸縮制御部を基材に設けることにより、基材のうち第1の伸縮制御部と平面視上重なる部分が伸縮することを抑制することができる。このため、基材を、伸縮が生じやすい部分と、伸縮が生じにくい部分とに区画することができる。これにより、基材に現れる蛇腹形状部の周期や振幅等を制御することができる。
なお、第1の伸縮制御部のヤング率を求める方法は、上記調整層の場合と同様である。
第1の伸縮制御部の厚みは、例えば1μm以上、100μm以下とすることができる。
第1の伸縮制御部の厚みは、例えば1μm以上、100μm以下とすることができる。
なお、第1の伸縮制御部の断面二次モーメントは、伸縮性回路基板の伸縮方向に直交する平面によって第1の伸縮制御部を切断した場合の断面に基づいて算出される。
また、第1の伸縮制御部の曲げ剛性が基材の曲げ剛性以下である場合、第1の伸縮制御部の曲げ剛性は、例えば基材の曲げ剛性の1倍以下とすることができ、0.8倍以下であってもよい。
また、図示はしないが、第1の伸縮制御部において、第2部分が第1の伸縮制御部の中央部を構成し、第1部分が第1の伸縮制御部の両端部を構成していてもよい。
この場合においても、第1の伸縮制御部の第1部分が、蛇腹形状部の特定の位相の部分になり易くなる。また、第1の伸縮制御部の第2部分は、蛇腹形状部の山部又は谷部の形状に沿って変形し易い。このため、蛇腹形状部の周期の安定性を確保しながら、基材の配線領域の変形性や伸縮性を維持することができる。
この場合においても、基材の配線領域の変形性が、第1の伸縮制御部の第1部分に比べて第2部分において高くなる。このため、第1部分が、蛇腹形状部の特定の位相の部分になり易くなる。また、第2部分は、蛇腹形状部の山部又は谷部の形状に沿って変形し易い。このため、蛇腹形状部の周期の安定性を確保しながら、基材の配線領域の変形性や伸縮性を維持することができる。
凹部から構成される第1の伸縮制御部を基材に設ける場合においても、基材の配線領域には、伸縮が生じやすい部分と、伸縮が生じにくい部分とが、配線が延びる方向に沿って繰り返し存在するようになる。このため、蛇腹形状部の周期が乱れて蛇腹形状部の山部の高さが局所的に大きくなるのを抑制することができる。これにより、配線に大きな応力が加わって配線が破損するのを抑制することができる。
第1の伸縮制御部が配線と平面視上重ならない場合、第1の伸縮制御部と配線とは同一平面上に位置することができる。第1の伸縮制御部が配線と平面視上重ならない場合であっても、蛇腹形状部が現れる第1方向に沿って複数の第1の伸縮制御部を並べることにより、蛇腹形状部の周期が乱れて蛇腹形状部の山部の高さが局所的に大きくなるのを抑制することができる。これにより、配線に大きな応力が加わって配線が破損するのを抑制することができる。なお、第1の伸縮制御部と配線とが同一平面上に位置する場合、両者を同一の工程で同時に形成することができる。
本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、基材の第1面側、基材の第2面側、または基材の内部に位置する第2の伸縮制御部を有することができる。第2の伸縮制御部は、機能性部材領域の周囲に位置する機能性部材周囲領域に位置し、機能性部材周囲領域と機能性部材領域との間の境界まで広がっていてもよい。
また、第1の伸縮制御部のヤング率と第2の伸縮制御部のヤング率とは、異なっていてもよい。この場合、第2の伸縮制御部のヤング率が、第1の伸縮制御部のヤング率よりも大きいことが好ましい。
例1:E1<E21=E22
例2:E1<E22<E21
例3:E22≦E1<E21
例4:E21=E22≦E1
また、第1の伸縮制御部の材料や厚みと第2の伸縮制御部の材料や厚みとは、異なっていてもよい。この場合、第2の伸縮制御部の厚みが、第1の伸縮制御部の厚みよりも薄いことが好ましい。これは、一般に、機能性部材の方が配線よりも厚いからである。第2の伸縮制御部の厚みを第1の伸縮制御部の厚みよりも薄くすることにより、配線領域と機能性部材領域との間における凹凸や段差を小さくすることができる。これにより、引っかかりによる素子剥がれが生じることを抑制できる。また、使用者が伸縮性回路基板を備える電子デバイスを装着した時の違和感を低減することができる。
この場合、基材の機能性部材周囲領域の変形性が、配線領域に向かうにつれて高くなる。したがって、機能性部材領域と配線領域との間の境界又はその近傍で基材の変形性が急激に変化するのを抑制することができる。これにより、機能性部材領域と配線領域との間の境界又はその近傍で配線が破損するのを抑制することができる。
なお、第2の伸縮制御部の第1部分も、隙間を空けて配置された複数の部材を含んでいてもよい。
本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、機能性部材領域に対して平面視上少なくとも重なる位置に、補強部材を有することが好ましい。図21において、伸縮性回路基板は、機能性部材領域22に対して平面視上少なくとも重なる位置に補強部材8を備える。
本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、配線、機能性部材および調整層の基材側の面とは反対側の面側、または基材の第2面側に粘着層を有していてもよい。粘着層は、本態様の伸縮性回路基板を人の身体等の対象物に貼付するために設けられるものである。
本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、伸縮性回路基板を予め伸長する方法により作製することができる。
また、本態様の伸縮性回路基板において、基材の内部に第1の伸縮制御部や第2の伸縮制御部が埋め込まれている場合には、上述したように、予め第1の伸縮制御部や第2の伸縮制御部を内包する基材を得ることができる。
本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、伸縮性を有することから、曲面に適用することができ、かつ、変形に追従することができる。このような利点から、本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、例えば、ウェアラブルデバイス、医療機器、ロボット等に用いることができる。
本態様の伸縮性回路基板は、例えば、人の皮膚に貼付して用いてもよく、ウェアラブルデバイスやロボットに装着して用いてもよい。例えば、人の腕などの身体の一部に取り付ける製品の少なくとも一部として、本態様の伸縮性回路基板を用いることができる。伸縮性回路基板は伸長することができるので、例えば伸縮性回路基板を伸長させた状態で身体に取り付けることにより、伸縮性回路基板を身体の一部により密着させることができる。このため、良好な着用感を実現することができる。また、伸縮性回路基板が伸長した場合に配線の抵抗値が低下することを抑制することができるので、伸縮性回路基板の良好な電気特性を実現することができる。また、伸縮性回路基板は伸長することができるので、曲面や立体形状に沿わせて設置することが可能である。
本開示の第2態様の伸縮性回路基板は、伸縮性を有する基材と、上記基材の第1面側に位置し、上記基材の上記第1面の面内方向の1つである第1方向にそって並ぶ複数の山部及び谷部を含む蛇腹形状部を有する配線と、上記基材の上記第1面側に位置し、かつ、上記配線が位置する配線領域に対して平面視上少なくとも重なるように位置し、上記蛇腹形状部を有する調整層と、を有し、上記調整層のヤング率が、上記基材のヤング率よりも大きい。
本態様における調整層は、典型的には、基材の第1面側に位置し、かつ、配線領域に位置し、基材の第1面の法線方向における山部及び谷部が基材の第1面の面内方向に沿って繰り返し現れる蛇腹形状部を有し、基材よりも大きいヤング率を有する部材である。
