Compared with prior art, the invention has the following advantages:
X the invention discloses a kind of MEMS three-axis piezoresistance formula accelerometer chip of purely axial deformation, in the sensor Measuring unit, Y measuring unit and Z measuring unit are respectively used to the acceleration of measurement X-direction, Y-direction and Z-direction, it can be achieved that three The separating and measuring of a directional acceleration;Z unit includes mass block, supporting beam and sensitive beam;Supporting beam and sensitive beam pass through quality Block is separately positioned, and supporting beam supports mass block movement, and stress focuses primarily upon sensitive beam, so that the varistor in sensitive beam Resistance value changes, and Each performs its own functions for the two, greatly weakens the direct-coupling relationship between sensitivity and resonance frequency;Together When moving synchronously due to two mass blocks, the sensitive beam both ends being secured to also move synchronously, thus sensitive beam meet always it is pure Axial deformation condition, under identical resonance frequency, the sensitivity of sensor is optimal, so that the sensor chip has well Performance indicator;The inner connection parts of third mass block and the 4th mass block are set as matching the structure of engagement, increase by two The fastness connected between person;Second sensitive beam and third sensitive beam are because one is to be directly connected to third mass block and the 4th matter The inner side edge of gauge block, the other is the telescoping part of connection, when so that chip is by acceleration in Z-direction, the second sensitive beam It is to be stretched power with third sensitive beam one, one is made with this configuration by compressing force, and then composition favour stone full-bridge In a structure i.e. constitute favour stone full-bridge, that is, simplify structure, and improve output sensitivity, sensitivity compared to Traditional half bridge designs are doubled;The separating and measuring of 100g or less 3-axis acceleration may be implemented in the sensor chip.
Further, the centerline of third mass block or the 4th direction mass block z is set in the second supporting beam, so that The attachment force of beam can be uniformly supported between third mass block or the 4th mass block and chip outline border;In second supporting beam It is provided with snakelike beam, snakelike beam is detour type structure, and snakelike beam extraction wire and can not increase supporting beam rigidity;When chip by To the direction z acceleration when, distinctive detour type mass end structure can reduce Z measuring unit by the direction z accelerate When spending, chip outline border is reduced to the restraint of third mass block or the 4th mass block, while snakelike beam is arranged in supporting beam, again It ensure that mass block and chip outline border can be connected securely, while not only to exist in Z measuring unit and stretching sensitive beam, but also depositing In the function of compression sensitive beam, and then form favour stone full-bridge, Lai Tigao output sensitivity;Snakelike beam is arranged in supporting beam, It in turn ensures that mass block and chip outline border can be connected securely, and then is sensed in sensitivity, the reduction for improving acceleration transducer While the cross sensitivity of device, the attachment force of mass block and chip outline border ensure that;Snakelike beam is provided with multiple serpentine sectors, It can guarantee that metal lead wire can be uniformly distributed to be brought out.
Further, make it possible to be formed chimeric by the way that linkage section and protruding end of different size is arranged in Z measuring unit Structure.
Further, two the second sensitive beams are positioned close to the position of edge, improve its sensitivity.
Further, in X measuring unit and Y measuring unit, it is separately positioned that supporting beam and sensitive beam pass through mass block, branch Beam support mass block movement is supportted, and stress focuses primarily upon sensitive beam, so that the varistor resistance value in sensitive beam becomes Change, Each performs its own functions for the two, greatly weakens the direct-coupling relationship between sensitivity and resonance frequency;Simultaneously because two mass Block moves synchronously, and the sensitive beam both ends being secured to also move synchronously, so that sensitive beam meets purely axial deformation condition always.
Further, X measuring unit or Y measuring unit, hinge beam are arranged on the center line of each measuring block, First sensitive beam is symmetrical relative to hinge beam;When receiving the acceleration in the direction x or the direction y, since two mass blocks are being added Speed can move synchronously when acting on, so that the movement of the sensitive beam both ends being secured at any time is identical, sensitive beam both ends Axial displacement on the contrary, and lateral displacement is offset, and since sensitive beam is sufficiently fine, mass block bending in both ends is small to the moment of flexure of sensitive beam To can ignore, so that sensitive beam meets the condition of purely axial deformation always, by the strain energy concentration of sensitive beam in axial deformation, Considerably increase the sensitivity of sensor.
Further, the gap structure on mass block can increase between mass block or between mass block and chip outline border Distance, extend the length of hinge beam or supporting beam, enhance between mass block or the attachment force between mass block and chip outline border.
The invention also discloses a kind of preparation methods of the MEMS three-axis piezoresistance formula accelerometer chip of purely axial deformation, should Preparation method, this method divide multistep for the structure of the MEMS three-axis piezoresistance formula accelerometer chip of distinctive purely axial deformation The methods of reaction ionic etching method, the vapour deposition process of plasma enhanced chemical, deep reaction ion etching method are used Prepare chip;Since Z unit supporting beam is in, chip thickness direction (direction) is intermediate, has very for the processing of MEMS technology Big challenge, the present invention is using the double mask layers in the back side, and deep reaction ion etching, etches the different ditch of back side depth in two steps Slot makes the lower half portion structure of Z supporting beam and mass block, supporting beam, the lower half portion structure of hinge beam while shaping, while just Face elder generation etched features layer, then buried oxide layer is etched, the basal layer on Z axis supporting beam top is finally etched, the whole knot of supporting beam is formed Structure.
