Description

MEMS device and method of manufacturing the same
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to the field of semiconductor device manufacturing, and more particularly, to a MEMS device and a method for manufacturing the same.
Background
At present, Micro-Electro-Mechanical systems (MEMS) technology is rapidly developing, and in general MEMS products, it is often necessary to fabricate a cavity structure and perform a film coating on the cavity to form a structure layer.
In the prior art, a first common process of coating a film on a cavity is shown in fig. 1, first, a structural layer 12 is formed on the front surface of a semiconductor substrate 11, and then, a cavity (a dashed frame) is formed by etching from the back surface of the semiconductor substrate 11 to the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 11. However, this method requires the semiconductor substrate 11 to be completely etched, and thus, a relatively expensive process such as an Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) and/or a Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE) process is used. In addition, since the inside of the cavity is communicated with the external environment, if the air pressure inside the cavity needs to be controlled, a noble gas with high use cost is needed in the packaging stage, and even the air pressure inside the cavity needs to be controlled by controlling the pressure of the packaging environment, so that the implementation is difficult, and the manufacturing cost is further increased.
As shown in fig. 2, a second common process for coating a film on a cavity includes first forming a cavity 23 extending from a surface of a first semiconductor substrate 21 into the first semiconductor substrate 21, then bonding a second semiconductor substrate 22 to the first semiconductor substrate 21 under a vacuum environment by using a wafer bonding process, and finally removing a portion of the second semiconductor substrate 22 (a dashed frame) by using a thinning process, and forming a structural layer 24 on the remaining second semiconductor substrate 22. However, this method requires a high thickness tolerance for the thinning process, for example, the thickness of the second semiconductor substrate 22 is 200 μm, and the thinning process is required to be as thin as 2 μm, and if the thinning tolerance is 0.2um, i.e., 0.1%, the relative tolerance to the thickness of 2 μm of the structural layer 24 actually remaining is 10%, and the fluctuation in rigidity thereof is equivalent to the third power of the thickness, i.e., about as high as +/-30%, thereby reducing the reliability of the device. In addition, the use of wafer bonding processes further increases manufacturing costs.

Fig. 3a shows a schematic structural diagram of a MEMS device according to a first embodiment of the invention.
As shown in fig. 3a, the MEMS device of the first embodiment of the present invention includes: the semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate 101, one or more first cavities 102, a first sacrificial layer 110, a first structural layer 120, and an extension layer 140, wherein the first structural layer 120 has a plurality of first via holes 103.
The first cavity 102 extends from a designated surface of the semiconductor substrate 101, such as the upper surface shown in fig. 3, into the semiconductor substrate 101, wherein the depth of the first cavity 102 is no greater than half of the thickness of the semiconductor substrate 101, and in some preferred embodiments, the depth of the first cavity 102 is no less than 2 μm.
However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may make other settings for the depth of the first cavity 102 as needed.
The first structural layer 120 covers the designated surface of the semiconductor substrate 101 and the first cavity 102, the first structural layer 120 has a plurality of first via holes 103, each first cavity 102 corresponds to a position of a corresponding first via hole 103, wherein a material of the first structural layer 120 includes polysilicon.
However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may perform other arrangements on the material of the first structural layer 120 as needed.
The first sacrificial layer 110 is located between the designated surface of the semiconductor substrate 101 and the first structural layer 120, and is used for supporting the first structural layer 120 when the first sacrificial layer 110 inside the first cavity 102 is removed, wherein the material of the first sacrificial layer 110 comprises silicon dioxide or phosphosilicate glass.
However, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may perform other arrangements on the material of the first sacrificial layer 110 as needed.
The flaring layer 140 is positioned to adhere to a sidewall of the first channel hole 103 to close at least a portion of the first channel hole 103 to isolate at least a portion of the interior of the first cavity 102 from the external atmospheric pressure environment. In the present embodiment, the material of the flaring layer 140 includes an oxide, and is formed by a thermal oxidation process, and when the inner surface of the first cavity 102 is not subjected to any treatment, the flaring layer 140 is also formed on the inner surface of the first cavity 102.
However, embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may make other arrangements for the material of the flaring layer 140 as desired.
In some other embodiments, the flaring layer 140 is formed by a deposition process, not only closing off a portion of the first passage hole 103, but also adhering to both the upper and lower surfaces of the first structural layer 120 and the inner surface of the first cavity 102, as shown in fig. 3 b. Wherein, the material of the flaring layer 140 includes nitride and/or oxide, preferably silicon nitride.
Fig. 4 to 10b are schematic cross-sectional views showing a part of stages in a method for manufacturing a MEMS device according to a first embodiment of the present invention, which will be described in detail with reference to fig. 4 to 10 b.
As shown in fig. 4, at least one first cavity 102 is formed in a semiconductor substrate 101.
In this step, for example, a photoresist is first coated on the semiconductor substrate 101, and the photoresist is patterned using a photolithography process to form a resist mask. Then, a part of the semiconductor substrate 101 is removed through the resist mask by using an anisotropic wet etching process, and the first cavity 102 is formed to extend from the prescribed surface of the semiconductor substrate 101 into the semiconductor substrate 101, and during the etching, the etching is stopped by controlling the etching time from the prescribed surface when reaching a predetermined depth h1 in the semiconductor substrate 101. Finally, the resist mask is removed by solvent dissolution or ashing.
In the present embodiment, the prescribed surface is the upper surface of the semiconductor substrate 101 as shown in fig. 4. Wherein the predetermined depth h1 is not more than half the thickness of the semiconductor substrate 101, and in some preferred embodiments, the predetermined depth h1 is not less than 2 μm.
In this step, the first cavity 102 is formed by using an anisotropic wet etching process, which not only saves cost, but also makes the etching consistency higher and the inner wall of the formed first cavity smoother by using the wet process.
In some other embodiments, if a first cavity with a complex pattern needs to be formed, the first cavity 102 may be formed by using an isotropic wet etching process or a non-deep silicon dry etching process.
Further, a first sacrificial layer 110 is formed covering the prescribed surface of the semiconductor substrate 101 and filling the first cavity 102, as shown in fig. 5.
In this step, the first sacrificial layer 110 is formed, for example, by using a deposition process while covering a designated surface of the semiconductor substrate 101 and filling the first cavity 102, wherein the material of the first sacrificial layer 110 includes silicon dioxide or phosphosilicate glass, and the thickness h2 of the first sacrificial layer 110 is not less than the predetermined depth h1, so that the first cavity 102 can be filled with the first sacrificial layer 110. In some preferred embodiments, the thickness h2 of the first sacrificial layer 110 is greater than the predetermined depth h 1.
When the first cavity 102 is formed by a wet etching process, the process for forming the first sacrificial layer 110 includes a Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) process or a process using TEOS as a raw material (including a TEOS hydrolysis process, a TEOS source growth process, etc.), thereby achieving the purpose of saving cost.
However, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may perform other arrangements on the material of the first sacrificial layer 110 as needed.
Further, a thinning process is used to remove the first sacrificial layer 110 at least partially covering the designated surface, as shown in fig. 6 a.
In this step, thinning is stopped when the vicinity of the prescribed surface of the semiconductor substrate 101 is reached until the prescribed surface is exposed. In this case, there is an error in thinning, so that the first sacrificial layer 110 above the designated surface cannot be completely removed, as shown in fig. 6b, the error in thinning is positively correlated to the thickness of the first sacrificial layer 110, and therefore the problem of error amplification can be avoided.
Further, a first structural layer 120 is formed overlying the first sacrificial layer 110, as shown in fig. 7 a.
In this step, the first structural layer 120 is formed, for example, using a deposition process, wherein the material of the first structural layer 120 comprises polysilicon.
In some preferred embodiments, a first protection layer 131 may be further formed between the first structural layer 120 and the first sacrificial layer 110, and a second protection layer 132 is further formed on the surface of the first structural layer 120, as shown in fig. 7b, wherein the materials of the first protection layer 131 and the second protection layer 132 include dense materials, and in particular, the materials of the first protection layer 131 and the second protection layer 132 include silicon nitride.
However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may perform other arrangements on the materials of the first structure layer 120, the first protection layer 131, and the second protection layer 132 as needed.
Further, removing a portion of the first structural layer 120 forms at least one first via hole 103, as shown in fig. 8.
In this step, for example, a photoresist is first coated on the first structure layer 120, and the photoresist is patterned using a photolithography process to form a resist mask. And then, for example, forming the first channel hole 103 by using an etching process, wherein the position of the first channel hole 103 corresponds to the first cavity, so that a part of the first sacrificial layer 110 in the first cavity is exposed through the first channel hole 103, and in the etching process, the etching is stopped when the first sacrificial layer 110 is exposed by controlling the etching time. Finally, the resist mask is removed by solvent dissolution or ashing.
Further, the first sacrificial layer 110 in the first cavity 102 is removed through the first via hole 103, as shown in fig. 9.
In this step, the first sacrificial layer 110 in the first cavity 102 is removed through the first via hole 103, for example, using a wet etching process, to re-expose the first cavity 102. Among them, the sacrificial layer 110 located at a designated surface of the semiconductor substrate 101 may be used to support the first structural layer 120. In this step, the first sacrificial layer 110 is removed by a wet etching process, so as to achieve the purpose of saving cost.
Further, at least a portion of the first channel hole 103 is closed to form an external expanding layer 140 to isolate the interior of at least a portion of the first cavity 102 from the external atmospheric pressure environment, as shown in fig. 10 a.
In this step, when the atmospheric pressure environment inside the first cavity 102 needs to be set to an atmospheric pressure environment or a high pressure environment, the flaring layer 140 is grown at the first channel hole 103, for example, by using a thermal oxidation process, wherein the material of the flaring layer 140 includes an oxide. If the inner surface of the first cavity 102 is not treated, the flaring layer 140 is also formed on the inner surface of the first cavity 102.
In some preferred embodiments, a silicon nitride protection layer is formed on each of the upper and lower surfaces of the first structure layer 120 in advance to cover the first structure layer 120 made of polysilicon material, so as to prevent the upper and lower surfaces of the first structure layer 120 from being oxidized, thereby ensuring that the thickness and strength of the first structure layer 120 are not affected by the fluctuation of the oxidation process.
In other preferred embodiments, a thermal oxidation process is used to grow some oxide layer (e.g., silicon dioxide) at the first via hole 103, then a chemical vapor deposition process is used to deposit epitaxial material at the first via hole 103, and a thermal oxidation process is used to extend the epitaxial material, and then some oxide layer is grown to finally form the epi-extension layer 140 that closes the first via hole 103, wherein the epitaxial material includes polysilicon. By alternately using the above two processes at least once, the problem that the thermal oxidation process cannot be completely relied on to close the first via hole 103 when the opening of the first via hole 103 is large due to consumption of silicon material by the thermal oxidation process is prevented.
In some other embodiments, when the atmospheric pressure environment inside the first cavity 102 needs to be set to be the atmospheric pressure environment or the low pressure environment, the out-diffusion layer 140 is deposited on the inner surface of the first cavity 102, the upper and lower surfaces of the first structural layer 120, and the sidewall of the first via hole 103 by using the atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition process and the low pressure chemical process, respectively, as shown in fig. 10b, wherein the material of the out-diffusion layer includes silicon oxide and/or silicon nitride, preferably silicon nitride. More preferably, an oxide layer is grown at the first via hole 103 using a thermal oxidation process before depositing the flaring layer 140, and it is also possible to prevent a problem that the first via hole 103 cannot be completely closed depending on the deposition process when the first via hole 103 is opened large.

In this step, for example, a photoresist is first coated on the semiconductor substrate 201, and the photoresist is patterned using a photolithography process to form a resist mask. Then, a part of the semiconductor substrate 201 is removed through the resist mask by using an anisotropic wet etching process, and a first cavity 202 is formed to extend from the specified surface of the semiconductor substrate 201 into the semiconductor substrate 201, and in the etching process, by controlling the etching time, the etching is stopped from the specified surface when reaching a predetermined depth h3 in the semiconductor substrate 201. Finally, the resist mask is removed by solvent dissolution or ashing.
In the present embodiment, the prescribed surface is the upper surface of the semiconductor substrate 201 as shown in fig. 12. Wherein the predetermined depth h3 is not more than half the thickness of the semiconductor substrate 201, and in some preferred embodiments, the predetermined depth h3 is not less than 2 μm.
In this step, the first cavity 202 is formed by using an anisotropic wet etching process, which not only saves cost, but also makes the etching consistency higher and the inner wall of the formed first cavity 202 smoother by using a wet process.
In some other embodiments, if a first cavity with a complex pattern is to be formed, the first cavity 202 may be formed by using an isotropic wet etching process or a non-deep silicon dry etching process.
Further, a first sacrificial layer 210 is formed covering the prescribed surface of the semiconductor substrate 201 and filling the first cavity 202, as shown in fig. 13.
In this step, the first sacrificial layer 210 is formed, for example, by using a deposition process while covering a designated surface of the semiconductor substrate 201 and filling the first cavity 202, wherein the material of the first sacrificial layer 210 includes silicon dioxide or phosphosilicate glass, and the thickness h4 of the first sacrificial layer 210 is not less than the predetermined depth h3, so that the first cavity 202 may be filled with the first sacrificial layer 210. In some preferred embodiments, the thickness h4 of the first sacrificial layer 210 is greater than the predetermined depth h 3.
When the at least one first cavity 202 is formed by a wet etching process, a process for forming the first sacrificial layer 210 includes a Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) process or a process using TEOS as a raw material (including a TEOS hydrolysis process, a TEOS source growth process, etc.), so as to achieve the purpose of saving cost.
However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may make other arrangements on the material of the first sacrificial layer 210 as needed.
Further, a thinning process is used to remove the first sacrificial layer 110 at least partially covering the designated surface, as shown in fig. 14.
In this step, thinning is stopped when the vicinity of the prescribed surface of the semiconductor substrate 201 is reached until the prescribed surface is exposed. In the above, there is an error in thinning, which results in that the first sacrificial layer 210 above the designated surface cannot be completely removed, and the error in thinning is positively correlated to the thickness of the first sacrificial layer 210, so that the error amplification problem can be avoided.
Further, a layer covers the first sacrificial layer 210 to form a first structural layer 220, as shown in fig. 15.
In this step, the first structural layer 220 is formed, for example, using a deposition process, wherein the material of the first structural layer 220 comprises polysilicon.
In some preferred embodiments, a first protection layer may be further formed between the first structural layer 220 and the first sacrificial layer 210, and a second protection layer may be further formed on the surface of the first structural layer 220, where the materials of the first protection layer and the second protection layer include dense materials, and in particular, the materials of the first protection layer and the second protection layer include silicon nitride.
However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may perform other arrangements on the materials of the first structure layer 220, the first protection layer, and the second protection layer as needed.
Further, removing a portion of the first structural layer 220 forms at least one first via hole 203, as shown in fig. 16.
In this step, for example, a photoresist is first coated on the first structure layer 220, and the photoresist is patterned using a photolithography process to form a resist mask. Then, for example, an etching process is used to form the first via hole 203 through the resist mask, the position of the first via hole 203 corresponds to the first cavity, so that the first sacrificial layer 210 partially located in the first cavity is exposed through the first via hole 203, and during the etching process, the etching is stopped by controlling the etching time to expose the first sacrificial layer 210. Finally, the resist mask is removed by solvent dissolution or ashing.
Further, at least one second sacrificial layer 230 and at least one second structural layer 240 are alternately stacked over the first structural layer 210, as shown in fig. 17.
In this step, the first sacrificial layer 210 and the first structural layer 220 are covered, for example, by a deposition process, wherein the first sacrificial layer 210 and the second sacrificial layer 220 are in contact via the first via hole. A second structural layer 240 is then formed overlying the second sacrificial layer 230 using a deposition process. Then, for example, a photoresist is coated on the second structure layer 240, and the photoresist is patterned using a photolithography process to form a resist mask. The second via hole 204 is then formed through the resist mask, for example, using an etching process in which etching is stopped at the time of exposing the second sacrificial layer 230 by controlling the etching time. Finally, the resist mask is removed by solvent dissolution or ashing.
In this step, for clarity, only one second sacrificial layer 230 and one second structural layer 240 are shown in fig. 17, however, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto, and a person skilled in the art may perform other arrangements on the number of the second sacrificial layers 230 and the number of the second structural layers 240 alternately stacked on the first structural layer 220 as required, for example, alternately stacking a plurality of second sacrificial layers 230 and a plurality of second structural layers 240, each second structural layer 240 having a second channel hole 204, and the upper second sacrificial layer 230 being capable of communicating with the first sacrificial layer 210 through the second channel holes 204 and the first channel holes.
In the present embodiment, the material of the second structure layer 220 includes polysilicon, and the material of the second sacrificial layer 230 is the same as that of the first sacrificial layer 220.
Further, the first sacrificial layer 110 in the first cavity 202 is removed through the second via hole 204 and the first via hole 203 in sequence to re-expose the first cavity 202, and a portion of the second sacrificial layer 230 is removed through the second via hole 204 to form at least one second cavity 205, as shown in fig. 18.
In this step, the first sacrificial layer 210 and the second sacrificial layer 230 are removed, for example, using a wet etching process. The first sacrificial layer 210 on the designated surface of the semiconductor substrate 201 may be used to support the first structural layer 220, and the second sacrificial layer 230 may be used to support the second structural layer 240. In this step, a wet etching process is employed to achieve the purpose of cost saving.
Further, the layer expands outward with partial second via hole formation in the first via hole of seal part, because made a plurality of cavitys (including first cavity and second cavity) in this embodiment, some cavity insides need set up to the ordinary pressure, some cavity insides need set up to high pressure or low pressure, can be through rationally setting up the trompil size, let first via hole and second via hole seal under different high pressure, low pressure or ordinary pressure condition, or seal the mode trompil of accomplishing back rethread to expanding the layer sculpture outward and make the cavity become the ordinary pressure. The multi-layer structure layer (including the first structure layer and the second structure layer) can be manufactured by reasonably setting the sizes of the first channel hole and the second via hole, the sequence and the parameters of the sealing process, and the first channel hole and/or the second via hole of one layer are/is appointed above some cavities in the sealing process under certain pressure. If multi-step sealing process is involved, the sealing process should be continuously performed to avoid the influence of other intermediate processes on the final sealing effect.
In some embodiments, the first flaring layer 250 is formed by closing the first channel holes and a portion of the second channel holes, as shown in fig. 19.
In this step, a chemical vapor deposition process or a thermal oxidation process may be used to deposit the first outer diffusion layer 250 on the inner surface of the first cavity 202, the upper and lower surfaces of the first structure layer 220, and the sidewall of the first via hole according to the setting of the atmospheric pressure environment inside the first cavity 202, and the process of forming the first outer diffusion layer 250 is similar to that of the first embodiment, and is not repeated herein.
