   BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
   1. Field of the Invention 
   The present invention relates to a high-frequency coil device and a method of manufacturing the same, and particularly to a high-frequency coil device of fine pitch for GHz and a method of manufacturing the same. 
   2. Description of the Related Art 
   A conventional high-frequency coil device will be described with reference to  FIGS. 10A ,  10 B and  10 C Here,  FIG. 10A  is a cross-sectional view showing a conventional high-frequency coil device,  FIG. 10B  is a cross-sectional view taken along a line C—C of  FIG. 10A , and  FIG. 10C  is a partially enlarged view of  FIG. 10B . 
   As shown in  FIGS. 10A ,  10 B and  10 C, a spirally-shaped coil  32   a  formed of a convex-shaped Cu (copper) layer having a thickness of, for example, 15 to 25 μm is formed on a dielectric substrate  30  formed of polyimide resin having a thickness of, for example, 20 to 30 μm. The surface of the spirally-shaped coil  32   a  is covered by an Au plating layer  36  having a thickness of 0.3 to 5 μm. 
   Here, the material of the dielectric substrate  30  is not limited to polyimide resin, and epoxy resin or phenol resin can be used. 
   A signal line  38  having the same structure as the spirally-shaped coil  32   a  is disposed so as to be adjacent to the spirally-shaped coil  32   a . The surface of this signal line  38  is coated with the Au plating layer  36  as in the case of the spirally-shaped coil  32   a.    
   The center portion of the spirally-shaped coil  32   a  (more accurately, the Au plating layer  36  coated on the surface of the coil  32   a  at the center portion) and the signal line  38  (more accurately, the Au plating layer  36  coated on the surface of the signal line  38 ) are connected to each other by an Au wire  40 , thereby constructing a high-frequency coil device having such a structure that the spirally-shaped coil  32   a  formed of the convex-shaped Cu layer is formed on the dielectric substrate  30 . 
   Next, a method of manufacturing the conventional high-frequency coil device will be described with reference to the cross-sectional views of  FIGS. 11 to 15 . 
   First, as shown in  FIG. 11 , the Cu layer  32  having a thickness of 15 to 25 μm is formed on the dielectric substrate  30  of polyimide resin having a thickness of 20 to 30 μm. Subsequently, as shown in  FIG. 12 , a resist film is coated on the Cu layer  32 , and then the resist film is patterned in a spiral shape having a fine pitch by using the photolithography technique to form a resist pattern  34 . 
   Subsequently, as shown in  FIG. 13 , the Cu layer  32  is selectively etched and removed by using the resist pattern  34  as a mask, and then the resist pattern  34  is peeled off as shown in  FIG. 14 . As described above, a coil  32   a  comprising the convex-shaped Cu layer  32  which is patterned in the spiral shape is formed on the dielectric substrate  30 . 
   Subsequently, as shown in  FIG. 15 , Au (gold) plating treatment is carried out on the spirally-shaped coil  32   a  to coat the surface and side surface of the spirally-shaped coil  32   a  with the Au plating layer  36 . 
   Finally, as shown in  FIG. 10A , a wire bonding is carried out so that the central portion of the spirally-shaped coil  32   a  (more accurately, the Au plating layer  36  coated on the surface of the coil  32   a  at the center portion) and the signal line  38  formed simultaneously with the coil  18  in the same process (more accurately, the Au plating layer  36  coated on the surface of the signal line) are connected to each other by an Au wire  40 . 
   As described above, a high-frequency coil device having a spirally-shaped coil  32   a  formed of a convex-shaped Cu layer  32  which is coated with the Au plating layer  36  is formed on the surface and side surface thereof. 
   In the above conventional high-frequency coil device, since the spirally-shaped coil  32   a  formed of the convex-shaped Cu layer  32  is formed by selectively etching the Cu layer  32  with the resist pattern  34  as a mask, the section of the coil  32   a  has a trapezoidal shape having inclined side surfaces as shown in  FIG. 14  and  FIG. 10C . Therefore, dispersion occurs in the sectional area, and thus the dispersion of the coil inductance is intensified. 
   That is, it has been difficult for the conventional high-frequency coil device to manufacture a high-frequency coil device for GHz which needs a fine-pitch coil having small dispersion in coil inductance. 
   SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
   The present invention has been implemented in view of the foregoing circumstance, and has an object to provide a high-frequency coil device that has small dispersion in coil inductance and is suitably usable for GHz band, and a method of manufacturing the high-frequency coil device. 
   In order to attain the above object, a high-frequency coil device according to a first aspect of the present invention, is characterized by comprising a dielectric substrate, and a coil that is embedded in the surface of the dielectric substrate so as to have a predetermined coil pattern, the bottom surface and the side surface thereof being coated with a dielectric substrate. 
   In the high-frequency coil device according to the first aspect of the present invention, the coil formed of the conductive layer having the predetermined coil pattern is embedded in the surface of the dielectric substrate, and the bottom surface and the side surface of the coil are covered by the dielectric substrate, whereby a stable Q value can be achieved, and thus a high-frequency coil device having a stable Q value for GHz band can be implemented. Further, the surface of the high-frequency coil device comprising the coil and the dielectric substrate is set to be substantially flat, and thus another semiconductor integrated circuit chip can be easily joined to the device. 
   According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the high-frequency coil device of the first aspect of the present invention, a recess is formed in the surface of the dielectric substrate, and the coil is designed in an aerial wire structure in which the coil is separated from the dielectric substrate in the recess, so that the Q value is further enhanced and a high-frequency coil device having a stable and high Q value for GHz band can be implemented. 
   According to a third aspect of the present invention, a method of manufacturing a high-frequency coil device is characterized by comprising: a first step of forming a resist pattern constituting a predetermined coil pattern on the surface of a base metal plate; a second step of conducting a plating treatment on an exposed portion of the surface of the base metal plate by using the resist pattern as a mask to form a coil of the plating layer of the predetermined coil pattern; a third step of removing the resist pattern and then forming a resin layer on the surface of the base metal plate containing the coil to coat the surface and side surface of the coil with the resin layer; and a fourth step of etching and removing the base metal plate from the back surface side to expose the back surfaces of the coil and the resin layer. 
   In the high-frequency coil device manufacturing method according to the third aspect of the present invention, when the resist pattern constituting the predetermined coil pattern is formed on the surface of the base metal plate, the resist pattern is formed so as to have a substantially vertical side wall and a highly precisely uniform pattern interval by a micro-processing technique. Further, the plating layer is formed on the exposed surface of the based metal plate by using the resist pattern as a mask to thereby form the coil of the plating layer. Therefore, the side surface of the coil is made substantially vertical, and the width thereof is uniform with high precision, whereby dispersion in sectional area can be suppressed at maximum. Accordingly, dispersion of the coil impedance can be reduced. Further, since the dispersion of the coil impedance is reduced, a high-frequency coil device having a high Q value for GHz band can be implemented. 
   Resin such as polyimide resin or liquid crystal polymer resin is suitably used as the material of the dielectric substrate of the high-frequency coil device. Further, the plating layer constituting the coil is preferably designed in such a multilayer structure that a nickel plating layer and a copper plating layer are laminated.

   DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
   Preferred embodiments according to the present invention will be described hereunder with reference to the accompanying drawings. 
   (First Embodiment) 
     FIG. 1A  is a cross-sectional view showing a high-frequency coil device according to a first embodiment of the present invention,  FIG. 1B  is a cross-sectional view taken along a line A—A of  FIG. 1A , and  FIG. 1C  is a partially enlarged view of  FIG. 1B .  FIGS. 2 to 8  are cross-sectional views showing a method of manufacturing a high-frequency coil device according to the embodiment of the present invention. 
   In the high-frequency coil device according to this embodiment, a coil  18  having a fine-pitch spiral shape as a predetermined coil pattern is embedded in the surface of a polyimide layer  20  as a dielectric substrate as shown in  FIGS. 1A ,  1 B and  1 C. That is, the bottom surface and the side surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  are coated by the polyimide layer  20 . 
   The surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  that is not coated with the polyimide layer  20  is coated with an Au plating layer  22  having a thickness of 0.3 to 5 μm. The surface of the Au plating layer  22  coated on the surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  and the surface of the polyimide layer  20  form substantially the same plane (i.e., flushed). 
   The spirally-shaped coil  18  is designed in an Ni—Cu laminate structure in which an Ni (nickel) plating layer  14  having a thickness of 15 μm and a Cu plating layer  16  having a thickness of 25 μm are laminated so that the side surface there of is substantially vertical and the width thereof is uniform with high precision. Therefore, the Au plating layer  22  on the surface of the coil  18  is directly coated on the surface of the Ni plating layer  14  serving as the upper layer of the coil. 
   Further, a signal line  24  having the same Ni—Cu laminate structure as the spirally-shaped coil  18  is disposed so as to be adjacent to the spirally-shaped coil  18 . The surface of the signal line  24  is also coated with the Au plating layer  22  as in the case of the spirally-shaped coil  18 . 
   The center portion of the spirally-shaped coil  18  (more accurately, the Au plating layer  22  coated on the surface of the coil  18  at the center portion) and the signal line  24  (more accurately, the Au plating layer  22  coated on the surface of the signal line  24 ) are connected to each other by an Au wire  26 . 
   As described above, there can be achieved a high-frequency coil device having such a structure that the spirally-shaped coil  18  having a fine pitch is embedded in the surface of the polyimide layer  20 , the bottom surface and the side surface thereof are coated by the polyimide layer  20 , and the surface of the Au plating layer  22  coated on the surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  and the surface of the polyimide layer  20  form substantially the same plane. 
   Next, a method of manufacturing the high-frequency coil device according to this embodiment will be described with reference to  FIGS. 2 to 8 . 
   The cross-sectional views of  FIGS. 2 to 8  correspond to  FIG. 1B . However, since the upper and lower sides of  FIGS. 2 to 8  are illustrated as being inverted with respect to  FIG. 1B , the “surface” and the “back surface” of constituent elements may be represented as being opposite to those in the foregoing description. Further, the signal line  24  of  FIG. 1  is formed simultaneously with the spirally-shaped coil  18  in the same process, however, the illustration thereof is omitted. 
   First, a Cu base metal plate  10  having a thickness of 80 to 150 μm is prepared as shown in  FIG. 2 . As shown in  FIG. 3 , a resist film is coated on the surface of the base metal plate  10 , and then a predetermined coil pattern, for example, a spirally-shaped resist pattern  12  having a fine pitch is formed by using the photolithography technique. At this time, the side wall of the resist pattern  12  is made substantially vertical and the interval between the resist pattern  12  is made uniform with high precision by the micro-processing using the photolithography technique. 
   Subsequently, as shown in  FIG. 4 , an Ni-plating treatment and a Cu-plating treatment are successively conducted on the exposed surface of the base metal plate  10  by using the resist pattern  12  as a mask to laminate an Ni-plating layer  14  having a thickness of 15 μm and a Cu-plating layer  16  having a thickness of 25 μm successively. At this time, since the shape of the Ni-plating layer  14  and the Cu-plating layer  16  is regulated by the resist pattern  12 , the side surface thereof is substantially vertical and the width thereof is uniform with high precision. 
   Subsequently, the resist pattern  12  is peeled off as shown in  FIG. 5 . As described above, the spirally-shaped fine-pitch coil  18  having the Ni—Cu laminate structure in which the Ni-plating layer  14  of 15 μm in thickness and the Cu-plating layer  16  of 25 μm in thickness are laminated successively is formed on the surface of the base metal plate  10 . In the spirally-shaped coil  18 , the side surface thereof is substantially vertical and the width thereof is uniform with high precision. 
   Subsequently, as shown in  FIG. 6 , after a polyimide layer  20  is coated on the overall surface of the substrate, resist is coated on the polyimide layer  20 , and then a resist pattern having a predetermined shape (not shown) is formed by using the photolithography technique. By using this resist pattern, the polyimide layer  20  is patterned into such a shape as to cover the area in which the spirally-shaped coil  18  is formed. The surface and the side surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  are coated and protected by the polyimide layer  20  thus formed. 
   Subsequently, as shown in  FIG. 7 , the base metal plate  10  is removed by etching it from the back surface side, thereby exposing the back surface of the polyimide layer  20 , and the back surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  which is coated with the polyimide layer  20  on the surface and side surface thereof, that is, the surface of the coil  18  on which the Ni-plating layer  14  is coated. 
   Subsequently, as shown in  FIG. 8 , an Au plating treatment is conducted on the surface of the Ni-plating layer  14  serving as the back surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  thus exposed to form an Au plating layer  22  of 0.3 to 5 μm in thickness. As described above, the back surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  whose surface and side surface are coated with the polyimide layer  20 , that is, the surface of the coil  18  which is coated with the Ni-plating layer  14  is coated with the Au plating layer  22 , and also the back surface of the Au plating layer  22  is substantially flushed with the back surface of the polyimide layer  20 . 
   In the spirally-shaped coil  18  whose Ni-plating layer surface coated with the Au plating layer  22 , the Ni plating layer  14  is interposed between the Cu plating layer  16  serving as the main portion of the coil  18  and the Au plating layer  22 , and the Ni plating layer  14  functions as a diffusion barrier for Au and Cu. 
   Finally, wire bonding is carried out to connect the center portion of the spirally-shaped coil  18  (more accurately, the Au plating layer  22  coated on the surface of the coil  18  at the center portion) to the signal line  24  formed simultaneously with the coil  18  in the same process (more accurately, the Au plating layer  22  coated on the surface of the signal line) by the Au wire  26  as shown in  FIG. 1 . 
   In this wire bonding, excellent connection can be also implemented because the Ni plating layer  14  having relatively high rigidity exists on the base of the Au plating layer  22 . 
   As described above, there is manufactured a high-frequency coil device having such a structure that the spirally-shaped coil  18  having a fine pitch is embedded in the surface of the polyimide layer  20  and the bottom surface and the side surface thereof are coated by the polyimide layer  20 . 
   As described above, according to the high-frequency coil device of the present invention, the spirally-shaped fine-pitch coil  18  is embedded in the surface of the polyimide layer  20 , and the bottom surface and side surface of the coil  18  are coated with the polyimide layer  20 , so that a stable Q value can be achieved. Further, the surface of the high-frequency coil device comprising the spirally-shaped coil  18  (the Au plating layer  22  coated on the surface) and the polyimide layer  20  is set to be substantially flat, so that joint of LSI chip, particularly flip chip joint using ACF (Anisotropic Conductive Film) can be easily performed. 
   Further, according to the high-frequency coil device manufacturing method of the present invention, the resist pattern  12  which is designed to have substantially the vertical side wall and the highly precisely uniform pattern interval by the microprocessing using the photolithography technique is formed on the surface of the base metal plate  10 , and the Ni-plating layer  14  and the Cu-plating layer  16  are successively laminated on the exposed surface of the base metal plate  10  by using the resist pattern  12  as a mask, whereby the side surface of the spirally-shaped fine-pitch coil  18  having the Ni—Cu laminate structure can be made substantially vertical and the width thereof can be made uniform with high precision, thereby suppressing the dispersion in sectional area at maximum and thus reducing the dispersion of the coil impedance. In addition, by reducing the dispersion of the coil impedance, a high-frequency coil device having a high Q value for GHz band can be implemented. 
   In the first embodiment, as the method of achieving such a structure that the Au-plating layer  22  is coated on the surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  having the Ni—Cu laminate structure in which the Ni-plating layer  14  and the Cu-plating layer  16  are successively laminated, the Ni-plating treatment and the Cu-plating treatment are successively conducted on the exposed surface of the base metal plate  10  by using as a mask the spirally-shaped fine-pitch resist pattern  12  formed on the surface of the base metal plate  10  to form the spirally-shaped fine-pitch coil  18  having the Ni—Cu laminate structure in which the Ni-plating layer  14  and the Cu-plating layer  16  are successively laminated, and then the polyimide layer  20  is formed so as to be coated on the surface and side surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18 . Further, the base metal plate  10  is etched and removed from the back surface side thereof to expose the back surface of the polyimide layer  20  and the back surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18 , that is, the surface coated with the Ni-plating layer  14 . Thereafter, the Au-plating treatment is conducted on the surface of the Ni-plating layer  14  to form the Au-plating layer  22 . 
   However, the manufacturing method is not limited to the above method, and the following method may be used. In order to make the understanding easy, the same elements as described above are represented by the same reference numerals. 
   That is, an Ni-plating treatment, an Au-plating treatment, an Ni-plating treatment and a Cu-plating treatment are successively carried out on the exposed surface of the base metal plate  10  by using as a mask the spirally-shaped fine-pitch resist pattern  12  formed on the surface of the base metal plate  10  to form a spirally-shaped fine-pitch coil  18  having an Ni—Au—Ni—Cu laminate structure in which an Ni-plating layer, an Au-plating layer  22 , an Ni-plating layer  14  and a Cu-plating layer  16  are successively laminated (however, an Au-plating layer  22  and an Ni-plating layer have been laminated at the lower layer portion of the coil  18 ). Thereafter, a polyimide layer  20  is formed so as to cover the surface and side surface of the spirally-shaped coil, and further the base metal plate  10  is etched and removed from the back surface side thereof to expose the back surface of the polyimide layer  20  and the Ni-plating layer surface laminated on the lower layer of the spirally-shaped coil  18 . Subsequently, the Ni-plating layer is etched and removed to expose the Au-plating layer  22  formed at the lower layer portion of the spirally-shaped coil  18 . 
   As described above, there can be implemented such a structure that the surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  having the Ni—Cu laminate structure in which the Ni-plating layer  14  and the Cu-plating layer  16  are successively laminated is coated with the Au-plating layer  22 . 
   (Second Embodiment) 
     FIG. 9A  is across-sectional view showing a high-frequency coil device according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and  FIG. 9B  is a cross-sectional view taken along a line B—B of  FIG. 9A . The same elements as the high-frequency coil device shown in  FIG. 1  in the first embodiment are represented by the same reference numerals, and the description of these elements is omitted. 
   As shown in  FIGS. 9A and 9B , the high-frequency coil device according to this embodiment has substantially the same construction as the high-frequency coil device shown in  FIG. 1 , however, it is characterized in that two semispherical recesses  28   a  and  28   b  are formed on the surface of the polyimide layer  20 . 
   Therefore, the spirally-shaped fine-pitch coil  18  is embedded in the surface of the polyimide layer  20  as a whole, and the surface of the high-frequency coil device is substantially flat. However, the portions of the spirally-shaped coil  18  which are located within the recesses  28   a  and  28   b  are designed as aerial wires separated from the polyimide layer  20 . 
   The spirally-shaped coil  18  thus constructed is supported by the polyimide layer  20  in an area sandwiched between the two semispherical recesses  28   a  and  28   b . That is, the bottom surface and the side surface of the spirally-shaped coil  18  are coated and held by the polyimide layer  20  in only the area sandwiched between the two semispherical recesses  28   a ,  28   b.    
   As described above, the spirally-shaped coil  18  is embedded in the surface of the polyimide layer  20  as a whole, and most of it is structured as an aerial wire separated from the polyimide layer  20 , thereby constructing the high-frequency coil device. 
   The manufacturing method of the high-frequency coil device according to this embodiment is substantially the same as the manufacturing method of the first embodiment described with reference to  FIGS. 2 to 8 , and only the step of forming the polyimide layer  20  shown in  FIG. 6  is different. Therefore, the illustration and description are omitted. 
   As described above, according to the high-frequency coil device of this embodiment, in addition to the effect of the first embodiment, most of the spirally-shaped coil  18  is constructed as an aerial wire separated from the polyimide layer  20  to thereby further enhance the Q value, so that there can be implemented a high-frequency coil device suitably usable for a frequency band of 5 GHz or more. 
   Further, according to the manufacturing method of the high-frequency coil device of this embodiment, the same effect as the first embodiment can be achieved. 
   In the first and second embodiments, the coil  18  is designed in a spiral shape. However, the coil pattern is not limited to the spiral shape, and the present invention may be applied to a coil having meander pattern. 
   Further, in the above embodiments, the polyimide layer  20  is used as the dielectric substrate, however, a liquid crystal polymer layer or the like may be used in place of the polyimide layer  20 . 
   As described above in detail, the high-frequency coil device and the manufacturing method therefor according to the present invention have the following effects. 
   That is, according to the high-frequency coil device according to the first aspect of the present invention, the coil formed of a conductive layer having a predetermined coil pattern is embedded in the surface of the dielectric substrate, and the bottom surface and side surface of the coil is covered by the dielectric substrate. Therefore, a stable Q value can be achieved, and thus a high-frequency coil device having a stable Q value for GHz band can be implemented. Further, the surface of the high-frequency coil device comprising the coil and the dielectric substrate is made substantially flat, so that it can be joined to other semiconductor integrated circuit chips. 
   Further, according to the high-frequency coil device of the second aspect of the present invention, the coil is designed as an aerial wire separated from the dielectric substrate in the recesses formed on the substrate of the dielectric substrate. Therefore, the Q value can be further enhanced, and thus a high-frequency coil device having a stable high Q value for GHz band can be implemented. 
   Still further, according to the manufacturing method of the high-frequency coil device of the third aspect of the present invention, when a resist pattern having a predetermined coil pattern is formed on the surface of a base metal plate, the resist pattern is designed to have a substantially vertical side wall and a highly precisely uniform pattern interval by the microprocessing technique, and a plating layer is formed on the exposed surface of the base metal plate by using the resist pattern as a mask to form the coil of the plating layer. Therefore, the dispersion in sectional area of the coil can be suppressed at maximum by making the side surface of the coil substantially vertical and also making the width of the coil uniform with high precision. Accordingly, the dispersion in coil impedance can be reduced. Further, the reduction of the coil impedance implements a high-frequency coil device having a high Q value for GHz band.
