Description

Novel PIN pipe microstructure
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of PIN tubes, in particular to a novel PIN tube microstructure.
Background
The millimeter wave switch and the amplitude limiter are important devices in a radio frequency front-end control circuit, mainly play roles in channel switching, signal modulation, waveform transformation, overvoltage protection and the like, and are widely applied to important fields of high-speed broadband communication, security inspection fine imaging, space detection and the like. With the further requirements of the imaging system in terms of miniaturization, high performance and the like, the core circuit and the module thereof are generally required to have the characteristics of high integration level, high isolation level, strong voltage endurance, high operating frequency and the like. The types of diodes currently used in switching and limiter circuits include mainly PHEMT transistors and PIN diodes. The PIN switch has small insertion loss, large isolation and larger bearing power. Therefore, in millimeter wave circuits and systems with certain power requirements, GaAs-based PIN diodes are generally used as components.
In the traditional PIN microstructure, the cathode and the anode are led out through a via hole connected with Metal2 (upper Metal) after being in direct ohmic contact, so that a part of an ohmic contact layer in contact with a substrate cannot be in direct contact with the Metal2, and the part is thin, high in resistivity, poor in overcurrent capacity and low in power resistance. The X-axis distance between the traditional cathode and anode ohmic contact layer is about (4-7 um), so that the substrate needs to bear certain overcurrent capacity and is easy to break down under the condition of high power. In the traditional PIN structure, the arc-shaped structure is adopted only in the part of the metal layer of the cathode and the anode, which is contacted with the substrate, so that point discharge, charge accumulation and poor voltage resistance can be caused at a square contact point.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention overcomes the defects of the prior art and provides a novel PIN tube microstructure which is simple and reasonable in structure and enhances the breakdown voltage and the overcurrent capacity of the PIN tube.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
a novel PIN tube microstructure is characterized by comprising a Metal1 layer, a Metal2 layer, an anode lead-out layer AC, a cathode lead-out layer CC and a PIN tube; the anode lead-out layer AC and the cathode lead-out layer CC are arranged on two electrodes of the PIN tube, the Metal1 layer is arranged above the anode lead-out layer AC and the cathode lead-out layer CC, and the Metal2 layer is arranged above the Metal1 layer; a Via hole Via 1 is arranged between the Metal1 layer and the anode extraction layer AC or the cathode extraction layer CC, and a Via hole Via2 is arranged between the Metal1 layer and the Metal2 layer.
Further, the cathode extraction layer AC and the one near the anode extraction layer AC have a lateral closest distance of 1.5 um.
Further, the PIN tube is arranged on the substrate; the PIN tube comprises a P layer, an I layer and an N layer, wherein the P layer, the I layer and the N layer are sequentially arranged on the substrate, the area covered by the N layer is larger than that covered by the I layer, and the area covered by the I layer is larger than that covered by the P layer.
Furthermore, the whole P layer is in a strip shape, and the corners of the P layer are in a semi-arc shape; the N layers are integrally concave, and corners of the N layers are 1/4 circular arcs.
Furthermore, different devices on the substrate are isolated by adopting an IS layer, and boron ions are implanted into the IS layer at corresponding positions of the substrate.
Furthermore, the corners of the Via holes Via 1, Via holes Via2, Metal1 layer and Metal2 layer are in the shape of a semi-arc or arc.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that:
the invention changes the microstructure of the PIN, optimizes the weak point of micro withstand voltage and overcurrent, and enhances the breakdown voltage and overcurrent capacity of the PIN tube.
The cathode and the anode of the PIN tube are led out through the ohmic contact layer, the ohmic contact layer is connected with the Metal1 (namely the ohmic contact layer and the Metal1 are connected through the Via hole Via 1), and the cathode and the anode are connected and led out through the Via hole Via2, and due to the introduction of the Metal1, the ohmic contact layer which is in independent contact with the Metal1 and the ohmic contact layer is completely superposed on a microscopic level, so that the ohmic contact layer is prevented from bearing voltage and current independently, and the breakdown voltage and the overcurrent capacity of the PIN tube are enhanced.
The invention shortens the X-axis distance of the ohmic contact layer between the cathode and the anode to 1.5um, thus shortening the length of the substrate bearing voltage and current and enhancing the breakdown voltage and overcurrent capacity of the PIN tube.
The corner of the anode adopts a semicircular arc shape, the corner of the cathode adopts an 1/4 circular arc shape, so that the charge accumulation and the point discharge are reduced, and the breakdown voltage and the overcurrent capacity of the PIN tube are enhanced.

Detailed Description
The invention is further described with reference to the following figures and detailed description.
As shown in fig. 1 to 10, a novel PIN tube microstructure is characterized by comprising a Metal1 layer, a Metal2 layer, an anode lead-out layer AC, a cathode lead-out layer CC and a PIN tube; the anode lead-out layer AC and the cathode lead-out layer CC are arranged on two electrodes of the PIN tube, the Metal1 layer is arranged above the anode lead-out layer AC and the cathode lead-out layer CC, and the Metal2 layer is arranged above the Metal1 layer; a Via hole Via 1 is arranged between the Metal1 layer and the anode extraction layer AC or the cathode extraction layer CC, and a Via hole Via2 is arranged between the Metal1 layer and the Metal2 layer. Namely, the cathode and the anode are led out through the ohmic contact layer, the ohmic contact layer is connected with Metal1 (namely, the ohmic contact layer and the Metal1 are connected through the Via Via 1), and the ohmic contact layer is led out through the Via and Metal 2. In the scheme, due to the introduction of the Metal1, the Metal1 and the ohmic contact layer are completely overlapped on a microscopic level, and the ohmic contact layer which is contacted independently does not exist, so that the ohmic contact layer is prevented from bearing voltage and current independently, and the breakdown voltage and the overcurrent capacity of the PIN tube are enhanced.
Preferably, the PIN tube is disposed on the substrate; the PIN tube comprises a P layer, an I layer and an N layer, wherein the P layer, the I layer and the N layer are sequentially arranged on the substrate, the area covered by the N layer is larger than that covered by the I layer, and the area covered by the I layer is larger than that covered by the P layer. The P layer is integrally in a strip shape, and the corner of the P layer is in a semi-arc shape; the N layers are integrally concave, and corners of the N layers are 1/4 circular arcs. Thereby reducing charge accumulation and point discharge and enhancing the breakdown voltage and overcurrent capacity of the PIN tube.
The corners of the Via holes Via 1, Via holes Via2, Metal1 layer and Metal2 layer are in the shape of semi-circular arc or circular arc. By such a change in shape, the lateral closest distance between the cathode extraction layer AC and the both near the anode extraction layer AC can be up to 1.5 um. Therefore, the length of the substrate bearing voltage and current is shortened, and the breakdown voltage and the overcurrent capacity of the PIN tube are enhanced.
Wherein, different devices on the substrate are isolated by adopting an IS layer, and boron ions are implanted into the IS layer at corresponding positions of the substrate.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as being within the scope of the present invention.
