Description

Integral type high precision magnetic sensor
Technical field
The present invention is mainly concerned with the feeble signal field of sensing technologies, refers in particular to a kind of integral type high precision magnetic sensor.
Background technology
Weak magentic-field is measured and all is widely used in fields such as earth-magnetic navigation, target detection, geologic prospecting, biomedicines.Magnetic sensor can be measured three components in magnetic field simultaneously, calculate inclination angle and the position angle of sensor, in navigation, decide the aspect such as appearance location and than single shaft and double-shaft sensor, more wide application prospect arranged, high resolution, low-power consumption, miniaturization are the main development directions of magnetic sensor.
Present stage is more for the magnetic sensor type of magnetic-field measurement, can be divided into assembly type and integral type by implementation, can be divided into fluxgate sensor, Hall element, Lorentz force Magnetic Sensor, GMR (Giant Magnetoresistive, giant magnetoresistance) Magnetic Sensor etc. by its principle of work.Wherein, the GMR Magnetic Sensor is based on microelectronic technique and makes, have that resolving power is high, volume is little, the characteristics such as low in energy consumption, easy batch production, be hopeful to realize integrated design based on the magnetic sensor of GMR effect, and have the characteristics of high resolution, miniaturization and low-power consumption.
Adopt the magnetic sensor of assembling mode to mainly contain a diaxon and a single shaft, three these two kinds of combinations of single shaft, mainly contain following several version: 1, assembly type magnetic sensor, its X, Y-axis adopt the GMR single-axis sensors, Z axis adopts Hall element, Hall element to be convenient for measuring the Z-direction magnetic field (patent No.: US20110234218A1); 2, the three-axis measurement scheme (patent No.: US7271586) on integrated three independent Magnetic Sensor to chips; 3, with three independently the MI Magnetic Sensor fit together and form three axles (US7298140B2); 4, Hall element and search coil sensor are assembled into together, can measure simultaneously stationary magnetic field and alternating magnetic field, resolving power is high, wherein measure the stationary magnetic field and can reach 100pT, but owing to adopting the three dimensional coils structure, volume is larger, can't realize miniaturization and the inconvenience batch production of magnetic sensor; 5, based on the annular magnetic line of force collector structure of GMR sensitive element, and it has been carried out Finite Element Simulation Analysis, this structure can improve the sensitivity of GMR sensitive element, but three discrete annular collector techniques are difficult to realization, and the assembling of need to putting together forms magnetic sensor.Generally speaking, three axle orthogonalities of assembly type magnetic sensor depend on assembly precision, and the integral type magnetic sensor that adopts MEMS technique to make has better orthogonality.
Aspect the integral type magnetic sensor that adopts MEMS technique, also there are many schemes to propose in prior art: 1, to make the MR Magnetic Sensor of different pinning directions by certain technique in same substrate, and make the collector of soft magnetic material on the MR sensitive element side of measuring Z-direction magnetic field, integrated making forms the magnetic sensor based on the MR effect.2, the sensor that will measure the Z-direction magnetic field of vertical plane is accomplished on the inclined-plane, realize three-axis measurement (patent No.: US7564237, US7126330) together with the plane inner sensor of measuring X, Y-direction magnetic field, realized integrated making, but the MR Magnetic Sensor manufacture difficulty on the inclined-plane is relatively large, is difficult to guarantee with the consistance of Magnetic Sensor in the plane.3, the MR sensitive element is produced on is used for measuring Z-direction magnetic field on the inclined-plane of substrate, with the integrated making of MR sensitive element in the plane, form magnetic sensor (patent No.: US20120268113A1, US20090027048A1, US20090027048).4, separately someone adopts CMOS technique to realize magnetic field three-axis sensor based on Hall effect having guaranteed the orthogonality between three axles, without hysteresis effect on a silicon chip, do not need special magnetic material yet, can measure simultaneously three-component, but resolving power is low, approximately 21 μ T.5, adopt micro-processing technology to utilize thermal stress to make the Hall element of making substantially vertical with base plane in the GaAs substrate, form three axle Hall elements, miniaturization and the integrated design manufacturing of magnetic sensor have been realized, technological process is relatively simple, but the angle on its Z-direction sensor and plane is difficult to accurate control, orthogonality between all three axles is difficult to guarantee, and minimum detectable is about 2 μ T.6, someone utilizes the interaction force of permanent magnet film and external magnetic field to change the principle that resistance sensing element of pressure is exported, adopt the MEMS process technology to realize the integrated design of magnetic sensor on silicon chip, guaranteed the miniaturization of sensor and integrated, but the resolving power that can reach is limited, and the measurement resolution in its Z-direction magnetic field is 250nT at present.7, can be subject to the acting force of Lorentz force due to the electrical conductor that is placed in magnetic field, by structural design, this acting force is produced displacement, cause capacitance variations, measure electric capacity and can obtain the magnetic field value, adopt the Lorentz force magnetic sensor of MEMS technology, without hysteresis effect, do not need special magnetic material yet, can guarantee orthogonality, miniaturization, low-power consumption, but the resolving power that the Magnetic Sensor of this principle can reach is not high, at present the measurement resolution of its Z component is the 70nT left and right, and the resolving power of measuring lower than plane inner field.8, on twin shaft GMR Magnetic Sensor basis, utilize the NiFe plate that the magnetic-field component distortion of vertical plane is measured to the plane, form three axle MR sensors, the usable surface micro-processing technology is realized, but the magnetic-field component after distortion is less, and Z-direction magnetic-field measurement resolving power is lower.
By above analysis to existing integrated magnetic sensor as can be known, in the integrated making of magnetic sensor, difficult point is to be to measure Z-direction magnetic field.The resolution that can reach based on the Magnetic Sensor of Hall magnet-sensitive element and Lorentz force resonance is not high, adopt the GMR sensitive element can realize high resolving power measurement demand, but the GMR sensitive element has characteristics, can only measure exactly the GMR sensitive element magnetic field planar.Address this problem and mainly contain two kinds of thinkings, the first is that Magnetic Sensor is produced on the inclined-plane of substrate, and the second is to use planar magnetic sensor measurement after forwarding in the plane with magnetic line of force steering structure to the Z-direction magnetic line of force of vertical plane.Measuring aspect, Z-direction magnetic field based on these two kinds of thinkings also has many schemes to propose at present.As: 1, add the collector of soft magnetic material in the MR elements on either side, measure (the patent No.: US7505233B2) in the plane that the magnetic line of force of vertical plane is partly rolled over; 2, at MR sensitive element side placement soft magnetism piece, be also the similar effect (patent No.: US20120200292A1); 3, make pit or boss in substrate, then the MTJ element manufacturing on the inclined-plane, measure the Z-direction magnetic field (patent No.: US20120068698) by the output signal of processing of circuit sensitive element; 4,100 surface anisotropies at silicon etch 111, the angle that depends on silicon crystalline structure is arranged between 111 and 100, then on 111 of AMR magnet-sensitive elements, due to the AMR sensitive element and base plane in a certain angle, can measure Z-direction magnetic field, noise level is 20nT@1Hz; Simultaneously, the AMR magnet-sensitive element and the AMR magnet-sensitive element on the plane that are produced on the inclined-plane are variant to the sensitivity in magnetic field, adopt simple circuit to be difficult to solve Z-direction magnetic field value from the response of two magneto sensors.
Generally, the integral type magnetic sensor has orthogonality better than assembly type, can adopt micro-processing technology to realize the miniaturization of sensor, but based on Hall element, AMR element, Lorentz force resonance magnet-sensitive element, overall resolving power is lower; Adopt GMR generally can reach higher sensitivity and resolution as sensitive element, but GMR to magnetic-field-sensitive planar, the magnetic field of vertical plane is very little on its impact.Placement soft magnetism piece can be transferred to the Z-direction magnetic line of force in the plane to a certain extent and measure near the GMR sensitive element, but above various laying methods difficulty in specific implementation is larger, and is difficult to guarantee structural symmetry and the consistency of performance of soft magnetism piece; The GMR sensitive element is produced on can directly measures Z-direction magnetic field on the inclined-plane of sensor base, but also more complicated of its implementation, and between each Magnetic Sensor on the inclined-plane and and the plane in Magnetic Sensor between consistance also be difficult to guarantee.So in prior art, how the difficult point of technical development is to measure Z-direction magnetic field with the GMR sensitive element, this difficult point has caused being difficult to realize based on designing and producing of the three-axis integrative formula Magnetic Sensor of GMR sensitive element.

As shown in Figure 3, in the present embodiment, collector is made of plane collector 2 and magnetic variation rail collector 3.Collector is the soft magnetic film that adopts high magnetic permeability soft magnetic material (as NiFe, CoZrNb etc.) to make at substrate 10 surface sputterings, and its shape is not limited to shown in figure, can for rectangle or trapezoidal etc., require as long as satisfy symmetry.Collector can produce congregation to the magnetic line of force, increases the magnetic field value of GMR sensitive element 8 positions.Midplane collector 2 of the present invention is positioned at the center, magnetic variation rail collector 3 is positioned at surrounding, is symmetric.Air gap between plane collector 2 and magnetic variation rail collector 3 is slightly wider than GMR sensitive element, is used for placing measuring with GMR sensitive element 8.Magnetic variation rail collector 3 is comprised of three parts that are positioned at diverse location, hole end collector 903 is positioned at the bottom of pit 4, inclined-plane collector 902 is positioned on the inclined-plane of pit 4, edge collector 901 is positioned at the edge of pit 4, three part collectors connect as a whole successively, and the vertical height of magnetic variation rail collector 3 is the degree of depth of pit 4.The effect that plane collector 2 and magnetic variation rail collector 3 have two aspects: can assemble the magnetic-field component on vertical Magnetic Sensor plane and be torqued on the one hand in the Magnetic Sensor plane, then can measure with magnetic measurement unit 1, realize that namely the complanation of vertical magnetic field is measured; Can assemble the magnetic-field component of magnetic measurement unit 1 sensitive direction on the other hand and amplify, then measure with magnetic measurement unit 1, can improve the sensitivity of magnetic measurement unit 1.As seen, the measurement result of magnetic measurement unit 1 comprises two parts, and a part is the magnetic-field component perpendicular to sensor plane, and another part is the magnetic-field component in the plane.

In specific operation process, the sensitivity of establishing the GMR element is
Figure BDA00002762518700061
Namely when a unit of GMR element sensitive direction changes of magnetic field, the resistance change Δ R of GMR element.Get the right-handed coordinate system in Fig. 1, z is outside to vertical paper, the sensitive direction of the first magnetic measurement unit 101 in magnetic measurement unit 1 and the 3rd magnetic measurement unit 103 is the x direction, and the sensitive direction of the second magnetic measurement unit 102 in magnetic measurement unit 1 and the 4th magnetic measurement unit 104 is the y direction.When magnetic fields is arranged in magnetic sensor, establish its component along three directions of diagram coordinate system and be respectively n x, n y, n zUnit, magnetic collector structural symmetry can think that it is N that collector has identical enlargement factor to the magnetic field of x direction and y direction 1, collector is made as N to z to the enlargement factor in magnetic field 2, because collector is different with magnetic line of force aggregation paths perpendicular to flat magnetic field to plane inner field, so General N 1≠ N 2

The differential voltage value of the first magnetic measurement unit 101 outputs in magnetic measurement unit 1, i.e. the differential voltage value of right side magnetic measurement unit 1 output is:
Can get equally the differential voltage value of the 3rd magnetic measurement unit 103 outputs in magnetic measurement unit 1, namely the differential voltage value of magnetic measurement unit, left side 1 output is

For characterizing the constant coefficient of GMR sensitive element 8 and electric bridge bias voltage, V x=α N 1n x, V z1=α N 2n zFor sensitive direction be y to magnetic measurement unit 1 in the second magnetic measurement unit 102 and the 4th magnetic measurement unit 104 can draw V equally y=α N 1n y, V z2=α N 2n zAs seen z can be measured to magnetic field in the magnetic measurement unit 1 of the magnetic measurement unit 1 of x orientation-sensitive and y orientation-sensitive, can get V to the measurement result addition z=V z1+ V z2=2 α N 2n zGenerally, due to 10 thickness limits at the bottom of silicon wafer-based, the degree of depth of pit 4 has certain limit, so collector is weaker than amplification to plane inner field, i.e. N to z to the amplification in magnetic field 2<N 1By adjusting size relationship, can make 2N 2≈ N 1, for the magnetic field n of each axle same magnitude x=n y=n z, magnetic sensor has identical output voltage V x=V y=V z, i.e. each axle magnetic-field measurement of magnetic sensor has consistent measurement sensitivity.
Adopt said structure of the present invention, at first, highly sensitive; The GMR magnet-sensitive element that the present invention adopts self has higher sensitivity, and collector can also further improve the sensitivity that it measures magnetic field by assembling amplification, so final magnetic sensor also can reach higher sensitivity; Secondly, the orthogonality of magnetic sensor is good, the magnetic sensor that the present invention proposes can adopt the MEMS micro-processing technology to make, the orthogonality of x axle and the magnetic-field measurement of y axle in easy assurance plane, simultaneously, be used for that the magnetic line of force that the complanation of z axle vertical magnetic field measures becomes the inclined-plane of rail structure and the angle on plane depends on silicon crystalline structure, thus the orthogonality of z axle and sensor plane also can guarantee, finally realize the magnetic sensor that orthogonality is good; At last, the magnetic sensor that the present invention proposes has the advantages such as miniaturization, low-power consumption, what invention proposed is a three-axis integrative formula Magnetic Sensor, adopt the MEMS processes to make, can realize miniaturization, low in energy consumption, usable range is wide, simultaneously in sensor, all GMR elements all are produced on intrinsic silicon substrate (100) plane, easily realize, and with batch making, make the GMR sensitive element magnetic property of magnetic sensor have consistance preferably.
