Abstract

The effects of nanofiber on the electrical properties of anisotropic conductive films (ACFs) were investigated from the perspectives of the joint and insulation resistances. To obtain stable electrical properties for fine-pitch chip-on-film (COF) packages, two kinds of nanofiber ACFs were demonstrated: (1) polystyrene (PS) and polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber ACFs, which were formed by laminating ACFs on the top and bottom sides of PS and PAN nanofibers, and (2) PAN nanofiber coupled with conductive particle (PAN/Cp nanofiber) ACF, which was made by laminating non conductive films (NCFs) on both sides of a PAN/Cp nanofiber. The effects of the nanofiber thickness, melting, and structure on the electrical properties of the nanofiber ACFs were analyzed. Among the two different nanofiber ACFs, the PAN/Cp nanofiber ACF showed the most stable joint resistance (below 4 mOmega) and insulation resistance (above 10(8) Omega (between 7 microm bump space) due to the thin insulation layer.
