Description

A kind of infrared-Terahertz two waveband detector array micro-bridge structure and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to infrared and Terahertz and survey and technical field of imaging, be specifically related to a kind of micro-bridge structure for infrared-Terahertz two waveband detector array and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Infrared detection technique has obtained using widely aspect civil and military as the additional and expansion to human sense organ.At present the photon detector of comparative maturity has been applied to fields such as communication, medical science, military affairs, but because must freeze during its work, causes whole system huge, and complex structure and cost are higher, thereby can't apply on a large scale.The development of large scale integrated circuit technology makes the development of non-refrigerated infrared detector become possibility.At present un-cooled infrared focal plane array (IRFPA) technology has become the direction of the main flow of infrared detection technique, and this technology makes us just can obtain to have the very Infrared Detectors of hypersensitivity energy at normal temperatures.In addition, its cost is low, volume is little, in light weight, lot of advantages such as power consumption is little and response wave band is wide, makes its large-scale marketization become possibility.
The mainstream technology of non-refrigerated infrared focal plane probe is thermistor-type micrometering bolometer at present.Realize the infrared acquisition under the room temperature, the design of detecting structure is the key of non-refrigerating infrared focal plane device.Micro-bridge structure is a kind of typical detecting structure.Adopt photoetching method to produce supporting layer and sensitive layer pattern and remove the method for sacrifice layer at last at sacrifice layer, can form a freestanding thermal isolation micro-bridge structure.Microbridge is made up of bridge pier, bridge leg and bridge floor, is produced on the substrate that has reading circuit, and bridge pier supports bridge leg and bridge floor, makes bridge leg and bridge floor unsettled, and infrared absorption layer and thermosensitive film are deposited on the bridge floor.When device is worked, infra-red radiation is collected and focused on to the lens that adopt germanium to make to the sensing element array that is positioned on the optical system focal plane, the variation of target infra-red radiation is detected by the infrared acquisition film on the bridge floor, be reflected to thermosensitive film temperature and changes in resistance, by the electricity passage that is produced in the microbridge this variation is delivered to the substrate reading circuit, be reduced into image information, realize the detection to echo signal.In order to take full advantage of the infra-red radiation of object, usually increase one deck catoptric arrangement in the sacrifice layer bottom to improve sensitive layer to the absorption of infra-red radiation, it has been generally acknowledged that sensitive layer and reflecting layer distance is best for the microcavity assimilation effect that formed of incident IR wavelength at 1/4 o'clock.
According to the difference of the thermistor material that uses, non-refrigerated infrared focal plane probe can be divided into vanadium oxide (VO x) two kinds of detector and non-crystalline silicon detectors.The vanadium oxide technology is researched and developed success in the early 1990s by the Honeywell company of the U.S., and several companies such as its license BAE, L-3/IR, FLIR-INDIGO, DRS, NEC and SCD produce at present.Amorphous silicon technology is is mainly researched and developed successfully in late nineteen nineties by the CEA/LETI/LIR laboratory of France, and main SOFRADIR and ULIS company by France produces at present.Vanadium oxide is very sensitive to the room temperature resistance variations in temperature, can obtain bigger temperature-coefficient of electrical resistance (TCR, Yi Ban Wei – 2%/K ~ – 3%/K), resistance value can be controlled in several kilo-ohms to several ten thousand Europe, 1/f noise is lower, the film deposition techniques maturation is the thermistor material of present no-refrigeration infrared focal plane detector first-selection simultaneously.Companies such as Raytheon, BAE, DRS, Indigo, NEC and SCD can both produce the vanadium oxide no-refrigeration infrared focal plane detector of 160 * 120 ~ 640 * 480 arrays, and its noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD) is 20 ~ 100mK.At present, 1024 * 1024 arrays are all being studied by BAE and DRS company, pixel dimension 15 μ m, NETD are the extensive vanadium oxide no-refrigeration infrared focal plane detector of 50mK.
The electromagnetic radiation of Terahertz (Terahertz, THz) ripple refers to that frequency is between 0.1 ~ 10THz(wavelength 3mm ~ 30 m), its electromagnetic spectrum is between microwave and infrared band.Therefore, the Terahertz system takes into account the advantage of electronics and optical system.For a long time, produce and detection method owing to lack effective terahertz emission, people are very limited for the understanding of this wave band electromagnetic radiation character, so that this wave band is called as the Terahertz space in the electromagnetic spectrum.This wave band also is last frequency window that pending comprehensive research is arranged in the electromagnetic spectrum.Compare with the electromagnetic wave of other wave band, terahertz electromagnetic wave has the character of following uniqueness: 1. transient state: the typical pulse-widths of terahertz pulse is at picosecond magnitude; 2. broadband property: the terahertz pulse source only comprises the electromagnetic viscosimeter in several cycles usually, and the frequency band of individual pulse can cover the scope of GHz to tens THz; 3. coherence: the coherent measurement technology of terahertz time-domain spectroscopic technology can directly be measured amplitude and the phase place of Terahertz electric field, can extract refractive index, the absorption coefficient of sample easily; 4. low energy: the energy of Terahertz photon has only the milli electron-volt, can not destroy detected material because of ionization, thereby can carry out detection and the diagnosis of biomedical aspect safely; 5. penetrability: terahertz emission is for a lot of nonpolar megohmite insulants, and for example packaging material such as hardboard, plastics, yarn fabric have very high through characteristic, can be used for surveying concealing object.These characteristics of THz wave make it at object image-forming, environmental monitoring, medical diagnosis, radio astronomy, broadband mobile communication, especially have great scientific value and a wide application prospect at aspects such as satellite communication and military radars.In recent years because the development of free electron laser and ultrafast laser technique, for the generation of terahertz pulse provides stable, excitation source reliably, make the research of mechanism of production, detection technique and the application technology of terahertz emission obtain flourish.
Terahertz detector is Terahertz Technology key in application device.In the development and application of terahertz detector, detect the terahertz emission signal and have very important meaning.Traditional un-cooled infrared focal plane array structure can be used for detection and the imaging of terahertz wave band in theory.According to 1/4 wavelength theory, be example with radiation frequency 3THz, for fully absorbing terahertz emission, the optical resonantor height of un-cooled infrared focal plane array should be 1/4 wavelength of 25 μ m(incident radiations).But such resonator height is difficult to realize (the resonator height of traditional un-cooled infrared focal plane array is about 1.5 ~ 3 μ m) in preparation of devices.If do not change the resonator height, its film structure is extremely low to the absorption of terahertz emission, makes that the difficulty of signal detection is bigger.At document (F. Simoens, etc, " Terahertz imaging with a quantum cascade laser and amorphous-silicon microbolometer array ", Proceedings of SPIE, vol. 7485, pp. 74850M-1 – 74850M-9,2009) in, to be used for terahertz imaging based on the un-cooled infrared focal plane array of non-crystalline silicon, through simulation and experiment measuring, the terahertz emission absorptivity of probe unit only is 0.16 ~ 0.17%.Therefore, solution commonly used at present is: keep the resonator height of un-cooled infrared focal plane array constant, increase the special terahertz emission absorbed layer of one deck on the top layer of film structure, to realize detection and the imaging of terahertz emission.Alan W. M. Lee etc. has reported that employing 160 * 120 un-cooled infrared focal plane arrays carry out in real time, THz wave imaging continuously.Sensitive material is the vanadium oxide film that is positioned on the silicon nitride microbridge.They propose, for improving signal to noise ratio and spatial resolution, need to improve the design of focal plane arrays (FPA), groundwork wherein is to optimize terahertz emission absorbing material (Alan W. M. Lee, etc, " Real-time; continuous-wave terahertz imaging by use of a microbolometer focal-plane array ", Optics Letters, vol. 30, pp. 2563 – 2565,2005).
Thin metal or metal composite thin film can absorb terahertz emission, and the thickness that while thickness is lower than 50nm is very little to the thermal capacitance influence of detector, is beneficial to the making of high speed of response probe unit, is commonly used for the absorbed layer of Terahertz microarray detector.N. employing such as Oda is carried out the detection of terahertz emission based on 320 * 240 and 640 * 480 un-cooled infrared focal plane arrays of vanadium oxide thermosensitive film.Because original film structure only is 2.6 ~ 4% to the absorptivity of terahertz emission.Therefore, they have the metallic film of suitable square resistance as the terahertz emission absorbed layer at top layer increase one deck of film structure, noise equivalent power when the incident radiation frequency is 3THz is down to 40pW(N. Oda, etc, " Detection of terahertz radiation from quantum cascade laser using vanadium oxide microbolometer focal plane arrays ", Proceedings of SPIE, vol. 6940, pp. 69402Y-1 – 69402Y-12,2008).Metallic film is used as the terahertz emission absorbed layer at document (L. Marchese, etc, " A microbolometer-based THz imager ", Proceedings of SPIE, vol. 7671, pp. 76710Z-1 – 76710Z-8,2010) report is arranged also, terahertz emission can be absorbed maximization by the thickness of optimizing the metal absorbed layer.
In bibliographical information, increase the layer of metal film as behind the terahertz emission absorbed layer, un-cooled infrared focal plane array can be used for detection and the imaging of terahertz wave band.But in probe unit, adopt double-deck vanadium oxide film simultaneously as absorption and sensitive layer infrared and terahertz wave band, utilize the reversible transition of upper strata vanadium oxide film to realize that two waveband is surveyed and imaging does not appear in the newspapers as yet, also do not have the application of related invention patent.
