Description

Method for preparing single crystal film bulk acoustic resonator and filter by improved process
Technical Field
The invention relates to a film bulk acoustic resonator, in particular to a method for preparing a single crystal film bulk acoustic resonator and a single crystal film bulk acoustic filter by adopting an improved process.
Background
With the rapid development of mobile communication technology, the market demand for high-band resonators and filters is increasing. Compared with the traditional microwave ceramic resonator and surface acoustic wave resonator, the Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator (FBAR) has the advantages of small volume, low loss, high quality factor, large power capacity, high resonant frequency and the like, so that the FBAR has wide application prospect in the related fields, particularly in the aspect of high-frequency communication, and becomes a hot research in the industry and academia.
The film bulk acoustic resonator is a main constituent unit of a film bulk acoustic filter, and the basic structure of the film bulk acoustic resonator is a sandwich piezoelectric oscillator in which a piezoelectric film layer is sandwiched by two layers of metal electrodes.
The thickness of the piezoelectric film layer determines the working frequency of the bulk acoustic wave resonator, and the quality of the film layer determines the performance of the resonator, such as Q value, electromechanical coupling coefficient, FOM value and the like. At present, mainstream piezoelectric films such as ZnO, AlN and the like are all prepared in a magnetron sputtering mode, are polycrystalline piezoelectric films, and have good film quality only when the thickness of the polycrystalline piezoelectric films is more than 500nm, so that the working frequency of the bulk acoustic wave resonator is not high. On the other hand, the defects in the polycrystalline film are more, which causes the loss of the BAW resonator to be larger and the Q value to be difficult to promote. With the progress of the film preparation technology and equipment, the preparation technology of the single crystal piezoelectric film is more and more mature, and the single crystal piezoelectric film has good crystal quality and few defects, so that the BAW resonator with higher frequency and Q value can be prepared, and has attracted extensive interest in scientific research and industry. However, the preparation process of the single crystal thin film BAW device is relatively difficult, and especially how to ensure that the front single crystal piezoelectric layer is not damaged in the substrate thinning process, so that a proper bonding process needs to be developed to realize the preparation of the single crystal thin film bulk acoustic resonator.
