Description

Vibrating gyro element, gyro sensor and electronic equipment
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the technical field of vibrating elements, and in particular, to a vibrating gyro element, a gyro sensor, and an electronic device.
Background
At present, the micromechanical gyroscope is a core component of modern inertial navigation and control technology, and is widely applied to aerospace, weaponry, industrial control and consumer electronics. The vibrating gyro element has high detection precision and is widely applied to the field of high-precision application. With the continuous improvement of application requirements, the detection sensitivity of the vibration gyro element with the traditional structure is difficult to further improve due to the limitation of a driving detection principle, so that the wide application of the vibration gyro element in the high-precision field is limited.
The key of realizing the angular velocity detection of the vibrating gyro element lies in the high-precision detection of weak Coriolis force, and the further improvement of the sensitivity of the vibrating gyro element is realized, so that on one hand, the driving efficiency of the vibrating gyro element needs to be improved, and the unit angular velocity can generate equal Coriolis force; on the other hand, the detection efficiency of the vibrating element needs to be improved, so that the unit Coriolis force can generate larger electric signal output. And noise is required to be avoided from being introduced in the whole process, so that the signal-to-noise ratio is prevented from being reduced due to the noise.
For high precision application fields, a vibrating gyro element is required to have higher structural sensitivity. However, in the prior art, due to the limitation of technical means, the prior art has difficulty in realizing breakthrough of sensitivity. The typical structure of the prior quartz tuning fork gyroscope is a double-end quartz tuning fork structure, and a pair of driving arms and a pair of detection arms are respectively arranged at two ends of a base part.
First, regarding the driving efficiency: the double-end quartz tuning fork structure driving arm resonates under the driving of driving voltage and is used for detecting angular velocity input perpendicular to the driving resonance direction. By improving the driving efficiency of the driving arm, a higher vibration amplitude can be obtained under a certain driving voltage, and higher structural sensitivity can be obtained.
The main solution for increasing the tuning fork driving efficiency is to increase the size of the driving arm, but the increase in size will directly result in the increase in volume of the vibrating gyro element, which is contrary to the trend of miniaturization. There is also a patent that the driving efficiency is further increased by arranging a groove portion on the driving arm to increase the driving electric field intensity. However, the prior art obtains a larger driving electric field strength by adding a slot parallel to the edge of the vibrating arm on the driving arm, and the driving electric field obtained in this way cannot be effectively converted into a driving force, resulting in a limited improvement of the driving efficiency. However, the electric field which cannot be effectively converted into the driving force causes the stress-strain imbalance of the upper part and the lower part of the groove wall, so that the electric field is converted into vibration noise, more structural noise is introduced while the driving efficiency is improved in a limited way, and the structural sensitivity cannot be greatly improved.
Second, regarding the detection sensitivity: when angular velocity is input in the sensitive direction of the tuning fork gyroscope, the detection arm can vibrate due to the Coriolis effect, and when the input driving efficiency is fixed, the vibration amplitude of the detection arm is positively correlated with the angular velocity to be detected; the input angular velocity can be detected by collecting and demodulating the charges generated by the strain of the detection arm through the piezoelectric effect of the quartz.
The intensity of electric charge generated by the quartz piezoelectric effect is positively correlated with the strain thereof, the surface of the detection arm is maximum due to the strain of the detection arm, and the center strain of the detection arm is zero, so that the density of the electric charge on the surface of the detection arm is maximum, which is limited by the current electrode processing technology of the detection arm, and the surface electric charge is not effectively collected in the prior art, so that the detection sensitivity of the detection arm is difficult to improve, and the structural sensitivity of the vibration gyro element is also difficult to improve.

The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood in specific cases to those skilled in the art.
In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
In the prior art, a driving arm is additionally provided with a slot parallel to the edge of a vibrating arm to obtain larger driving electric field intensity, and the obtained driving electric field cannot be effectively converted into driving force, so that the improvement of the driving efficiency is limited. However, the electric field which cannot be effectively converted into the driving force causes the stress-strain imbalance of the upper part and the lower part of the groove wall, so that the electric field is converted into vibration noise, more structural noise is introduced while the driving efficiency is improved in a limited way, and the structural sensitivity cannot be greatly improved. In addition, the surface of the detection arm has the largest strain, and the center of the detection arm has zero strain, so that the charge density of the surface of the detection arm is the largest, the detection arm is limited by the current electrode processing technology of the detection arm, and the surface charges are not effectively collected in the prior art, so that the detection sensitivity of the detection arm is difficult to improve.
The vibrating gyro element, the gyro sensor and the electronic device provided by the embodiment of the invention can solve the problem that the structural sensitivity of the vibrating gyro element is difficult to improve in the prior art.
The working principle of the quartz tuning fork is as follows:
the width direction of the quartz tuning fork is set as the X-axis direction, the thickness direction is set as the Z-axis direction, and the length direction is set as the Y-axis direction. When an angular velocity is input, the driving arm of the quartz tuning fork generates vibration in the X-axis direction under the action of a driving electric field, and generates a Coriolis force in a third direction perpendicular to the X-axis direction and the rotation direction (Y-axis direction) of the angular velocity, namely in the Z-axis direction by the Coriolis effect, so that the tuning fork generates a vibration component in the Y-axis direction, and the vibration is transmitted to the detection arm by the base. The second electrode 5 on the detection arm generates charge accumulation by the piezoelectric effect of quartz and outputs an electric signal containing information of the input angular velocity, and the input angular velocity can be detected by detecting the electric signal.
Example 1
As shown in fig. 1 to 15, the present invention provides a vibrating gyro element including: the detection device comprises a base 2, a pair of driving arms 1 and a pair of detection arms 3, wherein the driving arms 1 are arranged at one end of the base 2, and the detection arms 3 are arranged at the other end of the base 2. The first surface and the second surface of the driving arm 1, which correspond to each other, are provided with first grooves 11, as shown in fig. 5. The two side walls of the first recess 11 form an angle C along the extension direction of the driving arm 1, as shown in fig. 12. A first electrode for collecting electric charges generated on the surface of the driving arm 1 is disposed in the first groove 11.
This embodiment through with the extending direction of 11 cell walls of first recess with the extending direction at driving arm 1 edge forms contained angle C, can make the width inequality between 11 cell walls of first recess and the driving arm 1 to the different position structural rigidity of modulation driving arm 1 makes 1 working mode stress distribution of driving arm more even, can guarantee like this that the drive electric field that increases after increasing 11 first recesses more efficient turns into drive power, promotes drive efficiency.
In this embodiment, the included angle C may range from 0.01 ° to 2 °. The range of the included angle C is determined according to the length, width and height of the driving arm 1.
In the present embodiment, the groove width of the first groove 11 is gradually reduced in a direction approaching the base 2. As shown in fig. 12, the extending direction of the groove wall of the first groove 11 forms an included angle C with the extending direction of the edge of the driving arm 1. This case is merely exemplified in the present embodiment.
The vibration mode of the driving arm 1 is shown in fig. 7, and darker colors represent larger strain amplitudes. When the driving arm 1 vibrates, the strain applied to the driving arm 1 gradually decreases from the end close to the base 2 to the end far from the base 2, that is, the portion of the driving arm 1 close to the base 2 is subjected to the largest strain, and the end far from the base 2 is subjected to the smallest strain. By tapering the groove width of the first groove 11 in the direction close to the base 2, the portion of the drive arm 1 that is strained more when vibrating can be made to have a larger width. Therefore, the non-ideal deformation that the small groove thickness is subjected to micro-distortion when strain is applied, the introduction of structural noise is avoided, and the signal-to-noise ratio is improved.
Of course, as another embodiment, it is also possible to approach the two side walls of the first groove 11 to each other at the end away from the base 2. On this basis, as shown in fig. 16 and 17, the arm width of the drive arm 1 is gradually reduced in a direction away from the base 2. And the value range of the included angle C is also between 0.01 and 2 degrees.
A higher driving force of the driving arm 1 can be obtained due to the reduced wall thickness of the first recess 11, but a smaller wall thickness will cause a slight distortion of the driving arm 1 upon driving, thereby introducing structural noise. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the groove width DX2 of the first groove 11 at the end closer to the base 2 is set to 5 μm DX2 20 μm, and the groove depth DH2 is set to 1 DH2/DX2 4.
Due to the arrangement, the minimum vibration noise can be ensured to be introduced while the width of the groove wall of the first groove 11 is ensured to be minimum, so that the driving efficiency of the driving arm 1 is effectively improved.
As shown in fig. 13, one end of the driving arm 1 near the base 2 is provided with a connecting groove 12, the connecting groove 12 communicates with the first groove 11, while a first electrode is disposed to the connecting groove 12, and then the first electrode is led from the connecting groove 12 to the surface of the driving arm 1, the groove width of the connecting groove 12 is AX, the length of the connecting groove 12 is AY, AX > 0.5 × DH2, AY > 0.5 × dh2 by providing the connecting groove 12, the first electrode can be led from the first groove 11 to the surface of the driving arm 1, thereby enabling the vibration gyro element to obtain reliable electrical connection during operation, preventing the vibration gyro element from breaking, ensuring normal operation of the vibration gyro element, and also enabling the connecting groove 12 to be a U-shaped groove, such that the bottom of the connecting groove 12 is on the same plane as the bottom of the first groove 11, while, the connecting groove 12 can be ensured to operate normally by making AX > 0.5 × DH2, AY > 0.5 × DH 2.
As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the detection arm 3 of the vibration gyro device is provided with a groove 31, and the groove 31 is provided on the first surface and the second surface corresponding to the detection arm 3. The groove portion 31 includes a plurality of second grooves 311, the second grooves 311 are arranged side by side in the width direction of the detection arm 3, and the length of the second grooves 311 in the extending direction of the detection arm 3 is longer than the length in the width direction of the detection arm 3. The second recess 311 is further provided with a second electrode 5 for collecting charges generated on the surface of the detection arm 3.
Since the charges are generated in the X-axis direction, that is, in the width direction of the detection arm 3, and only the electrode in the X-axis direction is the effective electrode, the second electrode 5 is a three-dimensional electrode by disposing a plurality of second grooves 311 arranged side by side and the second electrode 5 matching with the second grooves along the extension direction of the detection arm 3. Thus, the area of the effective electrode on the front and back surfaces of the detection arm 3 can be effectively increased.
The vibration mode of the detection arm 3 is as shown in fig. 8 to 11, and darker colors represent larger strain amplitudes. Since the strain experienced by the detection arm 3 itself is gradually reduced from the end close to the base 2 to the end far from the base 2 when the detection arm 3 vibrates, that is, the strain experienced by the portion of the detection arm 3 close to the base 2 is the largest, and the strain experienced by the end far from the base 2 is the smallest.
Because the larger the amount of strain of the detection arm 3, the more electric charge is generated. The charge density of the front and back surfaces of the detecting arm 3 is the maximum, and the detection sensitivity of the detecting arm 3 is in direct proportion to the product of the effective electrode area and the charge density, so that the detection sensitivity of the detecting arm 3 can be effectively improved.
The distance between the two side walls of the groove part 31 and the edge of the detection arm 3 is SX1, wherein SX1 is more than or equal to 5 mu m and less than or equal to 20 mu m. The second grooves 311 are V-shaped grooves, the width of the second grooves 311 is SD, the plurality of second grooves 311 are arranged at equal intervals, the interval is SD0, and SD0 is greater than 0 and less than or equal to SD.
Based on the anisotropy of quartz crystal corrosion, different crystal orientation corrosion rates are different, and the parameters of the second groove 311 are controlled, so that the driving arm 1 and the detection arm 3 which have different depths and appearances can be obtained through one-time thinning corrosion. And the depth and the morphology determine whether three-dimensional electrode preparation can be realized by planar lithography.
Since the second recess 311 is a V-shaped groove instead of a conventional U-shaped groove. If the groove is a U-shaped groove, the etching depth is positively correlated with the etching time, but if the groove is a V-shaped groove, the shape is not correlated with the etching time under the premise of unchanged angle and width. Therefore, the depth can be controlled by the slotting width, and under the condition of the same corrosion time, the slotting depth of the driving arm 1 and the slotting depth of the detection arm 3 are realized.
The arrangement of the second electrode 5 on the detection arm 3 only requires the arrangement of the second electrode 5 on the groove wall of the groove 31, and the detection sensitivity of the detection arm 3 is insensitive to the groove depth of the groove 31 and sensitive to the groove wall width and the number of the second grooves 311, so that the second electrode 5 cannot be realized due to the complex structure.
However, the groove 31 obtained based on the above parameters has a W-shaped structure, and the second electrode 5 pattern can be obtained by planar lithography as shown in fig. 6. The second electrode 5 can be prepared with high precision by high-precision plane lithography, so that the problem that the difficulty of arranging electrodes in multiple grooves of the detection arm 3 is high is solved, and higher detection sensitivity can be obtained.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 13, the second electrode 5 may be manufactured by a manufacturing method including the steps of:
s1, preparing an electrode film on the surface of the detection arm 3;
s2, coating photoresist 4 on the surface of the electrode film;
s3, defining the appearance of the second electrode 5 through plane photoetching;
and S4, etching according to the appearance of the second electrode 5 to obtain the second electrode 5.
As another embodiment, as shown in fig. 16 and 17, the arm width of the detection arm 3 gradually decreases in a direction away from the base 2. The intervals between the plurality of second grooves 311 become gradually smaller in the extending direction of the detection arm 3 away from the base 2. At a portion where the detection arm 3 is connected to the base 2, a plurality of second grooves 311 are radially provided. The second recess 311 is a radially disposed portion, and functions as the coupling groove 12. And will not be described in detail herein.
Of course, the distribution of the second grooves 311 can be changed by those skilled in the art according to the actual situation of the detecting arm 3, and this embodiment is not limited to this, and is only an example.
The embodiment of the invention also provides a gyro sensor which comprises the vibrating gyro element.
