In said structure, introduce groove, make two interelectrode silica areas become large, capacity valve regulating range becomes large.
The preparation method of longitudinal voltage-controlled varactor of the present invention, comprises the steps (see Fig. 2):
(1) there is at Grown and substrate the epitaxial loayer of identical conduction type.Substrate can select heavily doped silicon substrate, and epitaxial growth epitaxial loayer is optional lightly doped on a silicon substrate, generally can adopt Chemical Vapor-Phase Epitaxy method.The doping type of epitaxial loayer is identical with the doping type of substrate.
(2) adopt photoetching and etching technics, in epitaxial loayer, form groove (see Fig. 3).The width of groove is 0.1-100 micron, and the degree of depth is 0.1-50 micron.The number of groove is relevant with the capacitance that will obtain, and groove is larger, and the scope of variable capacitance is larger.Etching generally adopts dry etch process.
(3) dielectric layer (see Fig. 4) is covered at the upper surface of trench wall and epitaxial loayer.This dielectric layer generally selects silica, can adopt hot oxygen oxidizing process, makes the silicaization of trench wall and epitaxial loayer upper surface generate silica.
(4) polysilicon deposition is with filling groove, and on epitaxial loayer, form predetermined thickness (can be 100 dust-5 microns) (see Fig. 5).Polysilicon requires that doping content is comparatively large, synchronously can adulterate, also can add annealing in process to be formed by ion implantation after deposit completes when deposit.The thickness that polysilicon exceeds on epitaxial loayer generally can be: 0.1-5 micron.
(5) polysilicon is drawn formation electrode by metal, after form another electrode at substrate back depositing metal.Consider the out-of-flatness on polysilicon layer surface, therefore can first pass through the planarizing process that CMP (chemical mechanical milling tech) carries out polysilicon surface.The making of electrode has come by following steps:
1) deposit interlayer film on the polysilicon, then etches the contact hole that described interlayer film forms described polysilicon; Interlayer film is generally silica, usually adopts the method for deposit to be formed.
2) depositing metal filling contact hole, and form metal wire (being the front metal in Fig. 1), as an electrode of voltage control variodenser.Here contact hole is filled and metal wire is formed by one-time process, such as adopts Damascus technics once to complete the making of contact hole filling and metal wire.And with aluminum or aluminum alloy as in the technique of metal wire, be generally and first adopt tungsten to complete the filling of contact hole, rear deposit aluminum or aluminum alloy forms metal wire.
3) another electrode of variodenser is controlled at the back side depositing metal coating-forming voltage of substrate.Substrate generally first needs to carry out reduction processing, and rear depositing metal (being the back metal in Fig. 1) forms electrode.
