Description

Air gap type film bulk acoustic resonator and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of film bulk acoustic resonators, in particular to an air gap type film bulk acoustic resonator and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the development of modern wireless communication technologies like high frequency and high speed, higher requirements are put forward on the front-end filter commonly used in radio frequency communication. While the working frequency is continuously improved, the requirements on the size, the use performance, the stability and the integration of the device are higher, and the Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) filter used in the past can not meet the requirements of the existing high-frequency communication any more due to the problems of larger size, compatible process and working frequency band.
The Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator (FBAR) is a new type of filter, and compared with the surface Acoustic wave filter, it not only has small volume, large power capacity, integratable performance and high working frequency, but also has better out-of-band rejection and insertion loss, and has a wide application in the current 5G communication. The film bulk acoustic resonator mainly has three structures of a diaphragm type, an air gap type and a solid assembly type, and the three structures all have a sandwich structure of 'electrode-piezoelectric film-electrode'.
In order to reduce the loss of the sound wave, the sound wave should be made to be capable of forming total reflection as much as possible. The acoustic impedance of air can be considered to be approximately zero, so that the top electrode and the surface of the bottom electrode need to be in contact with the air during manufacturing, the top electrode is in contact with the air, the bottom electrode grows on the substrate, and the substrate material at the bottom electrode needs to be removed by using an etching method, so that the substrate material can form solid/air interface contact with the air, and sufficient mechanical strength is ensured, namely the air gap type film bulk acoustic resonator is manufactured. The preparation method of the mainstream air gap type film bulk acoustic resonator is that a silicon cavity is etched through a silicon cavity, then a sacrificial layer is filled in the silicon cavity, other materials are continuously grown after chemical mechanical polishing, and finally the materials are released and removed. The first disadvantage is that the release of the sacrificial layer needs to use corrosive solution, which can corrode other structures of the device to a certain extent, the second is that the sacrificial layer becomes gas when released, the control rate is not appropriate, the pressure in the cavity is too high, the device structure is damaged, and the third is that the release of the sacrificial layer may not be thorough, thereby introducing other influences. Due to these factors, the yield of the mainstream FBAR device is low.
In order to improve various problems existing in a mainstream process, a recent patent proposes a method for preparing a cavity by metal bonding, but in the metal bonding process, the metal has high fluidity, bonding pressure and bonding temperature are difficult to control, and the metal easily generates an electromagnetic effect.
