Carrier substrate and method of manufacturing semiconductor package using the same
A carrier substrate comprises a core layer, a first metal layer disposed on the core layer, a release layer disposed on the first metal layer, and a second metal layer disposed on the release layer. At least one layer among the first metal layer, the release layer, and the second metal layer is disposed in a plurality of unit pattern portions having an area smaller than an area of the core layer. In addition, a method of manufacturing a semiconductor package using the carrier substrate is provided.
1. A carrier substrate, comprising:
a core layer;
a first metal layer disposed on the core layer;
a release layer disposed on the first metal layer; and
a second metal layer disposed on the release layer,
wherein at least one layer among the first metal layer, the release layer, and the second metal layer is disposed in a plurality of unit pattern portions having an area smaller than an area of the core layer, and
each of the first metal layer and the second metal layer includes a stack of a titanium (Ti) layer and a copper (Cu) layer.
2. The carrier substrate of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of unit pattern portions are disposed to be physically spaced apart from each other by a predetermined interval.
3. The carrier substrate of claim 1 , wherein a side surface of each of the plurality of unit pattern portions has an acute angle of inclination relative to a surface of the core layer.
4. The carrier substrate of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of unit pattern portions comprises the release layer and the second metal layer both having an area smaller than the area of the core layer.
5. The carrier substrate of claim 4 , wherein the first metal layer covers an entirety of an upper surface and a side surface of the core layer.
6. The carrier substrate of claim 4 , wherein each of the plurality of unit pattern portions further comprises the first metal layer having an area smaller than the area of the core layer.
7. The carrier substrate of claim 6 , wherein a portion of an upper surface and a side surface of the core layer are exposed between unit pattern portions of the first metal layer.
8. The carrier substrate of claim 1 , wherein the core layer is a glass plate.
9. The carrier substrate of claim 1 , wherein the Cu layer of the second metal layer is thicker than the Cu layer of the first metal layer.
10. The carrier substrate of claim 1 , wherein the release layer is an inorganic release layer.
11. A carrier substrate, comprising:
a core layer; and
a plurality of unit pattern portions disposed on the core layer to be spaced apart from each other,
wherein each unit pattern portion includes a release layer, first metal layers disposed on a surface of the release layer facing away from the core layer, and second metal layers disposed between the release layer and the core layer, and
the release layer and the second metal layers have a same pattern covering less than an entirety of a surface of the core layer.
12. The carrier substrate of claim 11 , wherein the core layer is a glass plate.
13. The carrier substrate of claim 11 , wherein the second metal layers cover an entirety of a surface of the core layer having the unit pattern portions thereon.
14. The carrier substrate of claim 11 , wherein the second metal layers include two sequential metal layers formed of different metals.
