Description

A kind of stress sensor chip based on SOI
Technical field
The invention belongs to high-temperature mechanics measures and integrated circuit manufacturing, encapsulation and field of measuring technique.Be particularly related to a kind of stress sensor chip based on SOI (SOI).
Background technology
Although the integrated level of integrated circuit is improving constantly, the area of integrated circuit and complexity still along with to the raising of function and performance requirement in continuous increase.Integrated circuit all can produce tremendous influence at the later stress of encapsulation to the reliability and the performance of integrated circuit, special situation for large tracts of land, small-feature-size or multilayer and the encapsulation of multicore sheet, in encapsulation process, can form stress between chip and adhesive, adhesive and the package substrate, make chip produce complicated stress distribution after encapsulation, these stress can be to the performance (for example channel resistance, mismatch) and the reliability generation significant effects such as (for example fractures) of integrated circuit.Along with the increase of the dwindling of integrated circuit characteristic size, chip area and the use of multilayer and the encapsulation of multicore sheet, the problem that stress causes becomes more and more serious.
In order to reduce and to eliminate the influence that these stress produce, must accurately reproduce and measure the stress distribution situation.In order to measure the stress of integrated circuit (IC) chip, must use the identical testing sensor chip in crystal orientation and size and measured integrated circuit (IC) chip to replace the position of measured chip, just can make sensor chip experience stress process and stress distribution and chip under test identical, the stress state of accurate response and reproduction chip under test.The Sensitive Apparatus of measuring stress can adopt piezo-resistance or Metal-oxide-semicondutor field effect transistor (MOSFET) triode.The former has technology and is easy to realize that the subsequent conditioning circuit characteristic of simple still in order to obtain the resistance of suitable resistance, need take bigger area usually, causes measurement spatial resolution lower; Adopt MOSFET can reduce the area that sensor unit takies as the stress sensitive device, thereby improve measurement spatial resolution, the zone is very useful comparatively rapidly for STRESS VARIATION, but the manufacture process relative complex.
Owing to during integrated circuit is made adopt silicon chip based on (100) crystal orientation as substrate more, therefore identical for the stress distribution that guarantees sensor chip with tested integrated circuit (IC) chip, sensor chip should adopt the silicon chip in (100) crystal orientation as substrate, and make the two that identical size be arranged, by the stress distribution of reasonable Arrangement senser measured chip.Yet use the silicon chip in (100) crystal orientation an important shortcoming to be arranged as stress sensor chip, the strain gauge that just is based on (100) crystal orientation silicon chip can only be measured four in whole 6 components of stress, comprise three direct stress and inplane shear stress, be that two other shear stress components can't be measured, cause using (100) silicon chip can not realize the measurement of whole components of stress as sensor chip.Based on the stress sensor chip of (111) crystal orientation silicon chip, can measure whole six components of stress; If place encapsulation but the sensor chip that uses (111) crystal orientation replaces measured chip, then can be different and stress distribution that cause (111) sensor chip to bear is different fully with the stress distribution of (100) chip under test by the mechanical property of (111) silicon chip and (100) silicon chip, thereby can't accurately reproduce the stress of reality (100) chip.
In addition, adopt pressure drag or the MOSFET stress measurement chip made on the body silicon materials, its serviceability temperature is restricted.This mainly be since on the body silicon materials insulation of device mainly rely on back-biased pn knot to form to isolate and insulation, but in high-temperature work environment, back-biased pn knot and substrate leakage leakage current significantly increase, and the insulating capacity of the anti-knot of pn partially descends rapidly, has a strong impact on the performance of transducer.
Summary of the invention

Described silicon substrate 1 is the SOI monocrystalline silicon in (100) crystal orientation, therefore can reproduce the stress state in the common integrated circuit.
Described stress sensitive element 3 is piezo-resistance or MOSFET device, adopts the monocrystalline silicon in (100) or (111) crystal orientation to make.
The thickness of the silicon dioxide layer of described soi wafer and stress sensitive element layer is at 20-5000nm;
The substrate layer of described soi wafer can carry out any doped in concentrations profiled; The stress sensitive element layer is for according to stress sensitive component type doped n type or p type silicon;
Described two kinds of sensers are by making with the process of IC process compatible.
Characteristics of the present invention are: it is made based on soi wafer, even at high temperature still can keep insulating properties, realizes the high temperature reliability of sensor chip; Substrate and device layer adopt different crystal orientations silicon, as substrate is (100) crystal orientation, the stress sensitive element layer is (111) crystal orientation, sensor chip replaces measured chip in encapsulation after, can reproduce same stress distribution accurately, and the stress sensitive element layer adopts (111) crystal orientation silicon to make the stress sensitive device on it can measure whole components of stress.If the stress sensitive element layer also adopts the silicon in (100) crystal orientation, then can realize the measurement of 4 components of stress under the hot environment.Therefore, the present invention has taken into account the advantage of accurately reproducing stress distribution and measure whole six components of stress on sensor chip, and has possessed the ability to work under the hot conditions.
