Description

Monolithic heterogeneous integrated structure of passive cavity type single crystal FBAR and active GaN HEMT
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a monolithic heterogeneous integrated structure of a passive cavity type single crystal FBAR and an active GaN HEMT.
Background
The high-frequency 5GHz and above frequency band wireless transceiver circuit has wide application scenes in military and civil fields, and the research and development of a high-performance 5GHz frequency band radio frequency front-end chip has important significance. In the future, wireless communication puts high technical requirements on radio frequency front-end wireless transceiver chips with frequency bands of 5GHz and above, including the requirement of broadband with frequency bands of 5GHz and above, ultrahigh frequency, high power, high isolation, low noise, high integration and the like. In the face of the requirement of a radio frequency front-end chip in a frequency band of 5GHz or above, the traditional silicon-based CMOS technology cannot meet the requirement of high power and low noise in the frequency band, and the requirements are specifically shown as follows:
(1) conventional active passive devices have been unable to meet the high performance requirements of 5G applications. For the application of frequency bands of 5GHz and above, the current silicon-based circuit can not meet the requirement of high power, even gallium arsenide (GaAs) circuits can not meet the requirement in some occasions, and the high-power gallium nitride (GaN) compound semiconductor technology must be used. GaN-based high electron mobility transistors (hereinafter GaN HEMTs) are capable of outputting greater power and providing higher efficiency than conventional silicon-based or gallium arsenide devices. In addition, in terms of passive filters, the conventional dielectric ceramic filter and the filter of the surface Acoustic wave device cannot meet the requirement of the 5G frequency band due to process compatibility, resonant frequency and the like, and a Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator (FBAR) is the only filter solution of the current 5G terminal. The FBAR is a novel radio frequency MEMS device, the basic structure of the FBAR is a piezoelectric stack of a sandwich structure consisting of a piezoelectric film and upper and lower electrodes, the FBAR can be considered as an extremely thinned crystal oscillator plate in working principle, the FBAR has high working frequency (0.5-30GHz), ultrahigh quality factor Q (1000 plus 50000), and can be compatible with a series of advantages of semiconductor technology and the like. The piezoelectric film materials used in the current FBARs are mainly obtained by magnetron sputtering. The thickness of the piezoelectric layer of the FBAR is 500-600nm in the frequency band above 5GHz, and under the thickness, the traditional polycrystalline material prepared by magnetron sputtering cannot have good piezoelectric characteristics, and a single crystal piezoelectric film is required to obtain smaller loss, a larger Q value and a higher electromechanical coupling coefficient. Therefore, the mainstream technology of the frequency bands above 5GHz is a single crystal film FBAR device, which is a future technical trend.
(2) The traditional chip integration packaging mode (including System In Package (SiP) integrated, heterogeneous chip binding integration technology, etc.) can not meet the requirements of radio frequency front end chips with frequency bands of 5GHz and above. For example, in the radio frequency front end of a current mobile phone, a low noise amplifier, a power amplifier, a radio frequency filter, a frequency source and the like are mainly packaged into a radio frequency front end module by a circuit board or SiP component. However, as the frequency increases, the distribution effect increases, the existing multi-chip SiP component type integration or heterogeneous chip binding integration technology can bring about huge parasitic effect, and simultaneously, the impedance matching between chips is difficult, and the performance of the ultrahigh frequency 5GHz and above frequency bands of the chips is greatly reduced. Therefore, a monolithic heterogeneous integration technology needs to be developed, in which a passive device and an active device are integrated in one chip, so that the chip size is reduced, and the performance of the chip is improved to meet the application requirements of the frequency bands of 5GHz and above.
At present, a module where an active GaN-based electronic device is located and a module where a passive FBAR is located are integrated together in a SiP integration mode, and the reliability, the power capacity, the matching impedance, the integration level and the volume of an oscillator and even a radio frequency front-end transmitting-receiving chip module formed in the integration mode are inferior to those of single-chip integration.
