Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for producing a ceramic-aluminum bonded body obtained by bonding a ceramic member and an aluminum member, the aluminum member before bonding being composed of aluminum having a purity of 99.0 mass % or higher and 99.9 mass % or lower, includes a heat treatment step of subjecting the aluminum member to a heat treatment in a range of 400° C. or higher and lower than a solidus temperature, and a bonding step of bonding the aluminum member after the heat treatment step and the ceramic member via a brazing filler material including Si.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method for producing a ceramic-aluminum bonded body obtained by bonding a ceramic member and an aluminum member, the aluminum member before bonding being composed of aluminum having a purity of 99.0 mass % or higher and 99.9 mass % or lower, the method comprising: a heat treatment step of subjecting the aluminum member to a heat treatment in a range of 400° C. or higher and lower than a solidus temperature; and a bonding step of bonding the aluminum member after the heat treatment step and the ceramic member via a brazing filler material including Si. 2 . A method for producing a power module substrate which includes a ceramic substrate and an aluminum plate that is bonded to the ceramic substrate, the aluminum plate before bonding being composed of aluminum having a purity of 99.0 mass % or higher and 99.9 mass % or lower, the method comprising: bonding the aluminum plate and the ceramic substrate by the method for producing a ceramic-aluminum bonded body according to claim 1 . 3 . A ceramic-aluminum bonded body obtained by bonding a ceramic member and an aluminum member, wherein the aluminum member before bonding is composed of aluminum having a purity of 99.0 mass % or higher and 99.9 mass % or lower, and a grain boundary length L, which is observed in a section of the aluminum member after bonding in a thickness direction, per mm 2 is 0.1 mm or less. 4 . A power module substrate, comprising: a ceramic substrate; and an aluminum plate that is bonded to the ceramic substrate, wherein the aluminum plate before bonding is composed of aluminum having a purity of 99.0 mass % or higher and 99.9 mass % or lower, and a grain boundary length L, which is observed in a section of the aluminum plate after bonding in a thickness direction, per mm 2 is 0.1 mm or less. 5 . The power module substrate according to claim 4 , wherein the thickness of the aluminum plate is in a range of 0.05 mm or more and less than 0.4 mm.
