Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing structure of the present invention and principle of work are described in detail.
Referring to Fig. 1,2,3,4, a kind of silicon micro-acceleration sensor chip, comprise peripheral support silica-based 4, support silica-based 4 the back side in the periphery and dispose glass substrate 5, the back side of peripheral support silica-based 4 is carried out bonding with glass substrate 5 and is connected, the siliceous gauge block 1 of central authorities is positioned at peripheral silica-based 4 the centre of supporting, the two ends of supporting the adjacent one side of silica-based 4 front and central siliceous gauge block 1 in the periphery dispose two silicon fimls 3, the one side of two silicon fimls 3 and periphery are supported silica-based 4 and are linked to each other with central siliceous gauge block 1, another side is connected with silicon cantilever 2, form the siliceous gauge block 1 of beam diaphragm structure together support central authorities, form the acceleration sensitive structure, intermediate configurations on the silicon cantilever 2 has four pressure drag bars 6, four pressure drag bars 6 constitute Wheatstone bridge, the metering circuit that the acceleration input that sensor chip is sensed is formed by four pressure drag bars 6 finally is converted into electric signal, finishes induction and measurement to acceleration.
There is the gap of 5-10 μ m so that central mass 1 is unsettled between described central mass 1 and the peripheral support silica-based 4, can do the certain displacement of time spent generation at extraneous acceleration, thereby sense accelerations, the weight of the siliceous gauge block 1 of beam diaphragm structure together support central authorities that described silicon cantilever 2 and silicon fiml 3 are formed, the thickness of described silicon fiml 3 is less than the thickness of silicon cantilever 2, utilization is superimposed with the silicon fiml 3 that corrodes from the back side from the silicon cantilever 2 that front etch forms, make stress concentrate effect obviously, simultaneously the stiffness coefficient of structure and its thickness cube is directly proportional, therefore the silicon in silicon cantilever 2 zones than the big situation of the thickness in silicon fiml 3 zones under, the stiffness coefficient in silicon cantilever 2 zones increases, thereby has promoted the natural frequency of entire system.
Described silicon fiml 3, the axis of silicon cantilever 2 and central siliceous gauge block 1 three parts overlaps.
Described silicon cantilever 2 has adopted (100) crystal face silicon.
Described four pressure drag bars 6 are arranged along [110] and [110] crystal orientation.
Described silicon micro-acceleration sensor chip adopts the SOI material of twin polishing.
Be respectively resistance R 1, R2, R3 and R4 referring to Fig. 3,4, four pressure drag bars 6, on silicon cantilever 2, resistance R 1 is arranged in parallel with resistance R 3, and resistance R 2 is arranged in parallel with resistance R 4, and four pressure drag bars 6 constitute Wheatstone bridge.
Principle of work of the present invention is: when acceleration acted on sensor chip, central siliceous gauge block 1 was as the responsive mass of sensor acceleration.According to Newton second law (F=ma), when acceleration acts on central siliceous gauge block 1, because the effect of inertial force, the siliceous gauge block 1 of central authorities can produce certain displacement, and then making silicon cantilever 2 part generation deformation in the beam diaphragm structure, the stress that this deformation produced causes being distributed in the resistance change of the pressure drag bar 6 on the silicon cantilever 2.This change in resistance changes electric signal output into by Wheatstone bridge, thereby realizes the acceleration-voltage signal conversion of sensor chip, finishes the measurement to quickening.
The variable quantity of pressure drag bar 6 resistances among the present invention on the silicon cantilever 2 calculates by the correlation formula of piezoresistive effect, and piezoresistive effect is meant when semiconductor material is subjected to stress, since the variation of carrier mobility, the phenomenon that its resistivity is changed.When the pressure drag bar is in certain stress following time, the proportionate relationship formula between its change in resistance and its suffered stress is as follows:
ΔR R = π l σ i + π τ τ i
In the formula: R---the initial resistance of pressure drag bar;
π l---be the horizontal piezoresistance coefficient of pressure drag bar;
π τ---the vertical piezoresistance coefficient of pressure drag bar;
σ i---the normal stress that the pressure drag bar is subjected to;
τ i---the shear stress that the pressure drag bar is subjected to.
Therefore silicon cantilever 2 is made the change in resistance that stress that the time spent produces will make the pressure drag bar 6 on it at extraneous acceleration, by Wheatstone bridge is electric signal output again with this change transitions, then realize induction and measurement to acceleration, piezoresistive effect has anisotropic feature, pass through electric current along different direction stress applications or along different directions, the change in resistance of material is all inequality, in order under same acceleration effect, to obtain bigger output electric signal, silicon cantilever 2 among the present invention is selected (100) crystal face silicon chip, utilize (100) crystal face silicon on [110] and [110] crystal orientation, to have maximal value, almost nil characteristics on [100] and [010] crystal orientation, pressure drag bar 6 distributes along [110] and [110] crystal orientation, has improved the measuring accuracy of sensor chip to acceleration.
