Description

The circular silicon thin-film micro-electromechanical pressure transducer
Technical field
The invention provides a kind of micro-electromechanical pressure transducer structure of circular P-type semiconductor silicon thin layer of on circular N type silicon thin film, making, utilize electrical impedance tomography (EIT) measuring principle to carry out sensing and calculate, belong to field of micro electromechanical technology as sensing layer.
Technical background
Pressure transducer is one of important sensor, and purposes is very widely arranged.Present most of pressure transducers adopt the measuring method of lumped parameter, for example, detect the method that voltage dependent resistor (VDR) changes or capacity plate antenna changes.The symmetry of voltage dependent resistor (VDR) requires high, and there is the little and nonlinear problem of capacitance change in the plate condenser structure.
P type silicon has apparent in view piezoresistive effect, is usually used in tension stress or compressive stress that sensing material is subjected to.Traditional micro-electromechanical pressure transducer adopts the pressure drag of being made by P type silicon to come sensing, and pressure drag is produced on the position of pressure sensing membrane stress maximum, for example at the boundary of pressure sensing film.When the pressure in the external world makes sense film generation deformation, also make these pressure drags be subjected to the effect of stress and cause the size of its resistance to change.Resistance bridge is usually adopted in detection for these piezoresistive transducers, but, be usually located at the pressure sensing thin film boundary because be used for the pressure drag of sensing, the discreteness of technology makes between these resistance and produces mismatch, and therefore makes the resistance bridge detection initial error occur.
When adopting the P-type semiconductor silicon thin layer as sensing material, the thin layer upper stress that deformation produced distributes and will change, and this stress distribution variation will cause the layer resistivity distribution to change.
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) technology adopts current excitation/voltage measurement, and calculates the resistivity distribution of material to be detected by imaging algorithm.
The variation of film resiativity is come out by the EIT technology for detection, can access the deformation of film each point, and therefore can reflect extraneous institute applied pressure.
Summary of the invention
Technical matters: the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of circular silicon thin-film micro-electromechanical pressure transducer, on circular N type silicon thin film, make the micro-electromechanical pressure transducer structure of circular P-type semiconductor silicon thin layer, have that sensor construction is simple, the processing technology characteristic of simple as sensing layer.
Technical scheme: the orlop of circular silicon thin-film micro-electromechanical pressure transducer of the present invention is a glass substrate, on glass substrate, be provided with N type silicon substrate, in the middle of N type silicon substrate and between the glass substrate, be provided with circular cavity, circular P type doping thin layer covers the whole silicon thin film that is positioned at the N type silicon substrate of circular cavity top, micro-electromechanical pressure transducer structure as sensing layer, and the thickness of P type doping thin layer equals this silicon thin film thickness half, adopts circular P type doping thin layer as sensing layer; Upper surface at N type silicon substrate and circular P type doping thin layer has covered silicon dioxide layer, is promptly to can be used for the metal electrode that current excitation also can be used for voltage measurement on the silicon dioxide layer.
The P type doping thin layer of described circle, the P type doping thin layer in one week along circle, evenly distribution is connecting 16 and promptly can be used for the metal electrode that current excitation also can be used for voltage measurement; Utilize the resistivity distribution of circular P type doping thin layer to carry out pressure sensing with the principle that the pressure variation changes.
Its basic functional principle is: when ambient pressure causes the silicon thin film distortion, because piezoresistive effect causes the P-type semiconductor silicon thin layer on the silicon thin film to change along the resistivity of radial direction each point, utilize EIT technique computes P-type semiconductor silicon thin layer resistivity distribution in this case, obtain the deformation quantity of silicon thin film afterwards.Because the size of deformation is directly relevant with pressure, obtain force value thus.Adopt the micro-electromechanical pressure transducer of pressure drag sensing different with tradition, the variation that the structure that the present invention proposes is utilized whole sensing layer material resistivity distribution force value is to external world carried out sensing and is characterized.Simultaneously, because the EIT technology is a basic value with the background resistivity distribution, therefore, basic sum of errors asymmetry can be offset.Has simple, the processing technology characteristic of simple of sensor construction.
Beneficial effect: great advantage of the present invention is that sensor construction is simple, and is low to the sensitivity of processing technology.Because adopt resistivity distribution to change the deformation that detects silicon thin film, therefore, be to detect for the relative value that changes.Be different from traditional based on specified point parameter sampling or to the sensing mode of lumped parameter sampling, it is that whole sensitive face is calculated, and therefore, makes error and averages out, and has reduced systematic error.Simultaneously, the background resistivity distribution can be used as basic reference, will survey resistivity distribution and background resistivity is subtracted each other, filtering initial process error.Intelligent based on the easier realization of the information processing method of algorithm.
