Description

Method for preparing single crystal film bulk acoustic resonator and filter by adopting improved process
Technical Field
The invention relates to a film bulk acoustic resonator, in particular to a method for preparing a monocrystalline film bulk acoustic resonator and a filter by adopting an improved process.
Background
With the rapid development of mobile communication technology, market demands for high-frequency resonators and filters are increasing. Compared with the traditional microwave ceramic resonator and the surface 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 Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator (FBAR) has wide application prospect in the related fields, especially in the aspect of high-frequency communication, and becomes a popular research in the industry and academia.
The film bulk acoustic resonator is a main constituent unit of a film bulk acoustic filter, and its basic structure is a sandwich piezoelectric oscillator in which two metal electrodes sandwich a piezoelectric film layer.
The thickness of the piezoelectric thin film layer determines the operating frequency of the bulk acoustic wave resonator, and the quality of the thin film layer determines the performance of the resonator, such as Q value, electromechanical coupling coefficient, FOM value, etc. The main piezoelectric films such as ZnO and AlN are prepared by magnetron sputtering, and are polycrystalline piezoelectric films, and the thickness of the polycrystalline piezoelectric films is more than 500nm, so that the working frequency of the bulk acoustic wave resonator is low. On the other hand, the defects in the polycrystalline thin film are more, so that the loss of the BAW resonator is larger, and the Q value is difficult to improve. Along with the progress of film preparation technology and equipment, the preparation technology of the single crystal piezoelectric film is also more and more mature, and the single crystal piezoelectric film has good crystal quality, few defects and wide interest in scientific research and industry because of being capable of preparing BAW resonators with higher frequency and Q value. However, the single crystal thin film BAW device is relatively difficult to manufacture, and in particular, how to ensure that the front side single crystal piezoelectric layer is not damaged during the substrate thinning process, so that a suitable bonding process needs to be developed to realize the manufacture of the single crystal thin film bulk acoustic resonator.
