Description

Composite piezoelectric substrate and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of piezoelectric substrate manufacturing, relates to a composite piezoelectric substrate, and particularly relates to a composite piezoelectric substrate, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The piezoelectric material has the function of conversion and inverse conversion between mechanical energy and electric energy due to the piezoelectric effect. The principle of the piezoelectric effect is: if pressure is applied to the piezoelectric material, it will generate a potential difference, known as the positive piezoelectric effect; conversely, application of a voltage produces mechanical stress, known as the inverse piezoelectric effect. If the pressure is a high frequency shock, the current generated is a high frequency current.
Lithium niobate and lithium tantalate are the most widely used novel electrodeless materials at present, belong to very excellent piezoelectric transduction materials, and lithium tantalate has excellent piezoelectric, ferroelectric, acousto-optic and electro-optic effects, and is widely applied to electronic communication devices such as resonators, filters, transducers and the like and high-frequency surface acoustic wave devices. The lithium niobate has good nonlinear optical property, and can be used as an optical waveguide material or used for manufacturing a middle-low frequency acoustic surface filter, a high-power high-temperature-resistant ultrasonic transducer and the like.
Compared with piezoelectric crystals, the piezoelectric substrate prepared from lithium niobate and lithium tantalate has the advantages of high frequency, good temperature compensation, good stability, low manufacturing cost and the like, and has the advantage of irreplaceability in the fields of RF (radio frequency), optical fiber communication, RF filters and the like. Typically the composite piezoelectric substrate consists of a thin film layer of piezoelectric material, an insulating layer and a substrate layer of semiconductor material.
However, since the difference between the thermal expansion coefficients of the piezoelectric material and the semiconductor material substrate is very large, significant deformation occurs during the peeling heat process after heterobonding, and thus quality problems such as bond fracture are caused. In the prior art, when the piezoelectric material film is prepared, the bonded body is thinned and then thermally annealed, so that the piezoelectric material cannot be reused, the processing steps and the cost are increased, and the yield of products is reduced.
The other technology uses UV ultraviolet curing optical cement to bond the semiconductor material with the piezoelectric material after the photoresist is uniformly coated on the semiconductor material, and uses UV light irradiation to bond the virtual semiconductor material with the piezoelectric material and then carries out subsequent processes, so that the deformation in the thermal annealing process after bonding is reduced, but the method has the risk of contamination of the organic UV optical cement, is very sensitive to temperature and has complex operation process.
CN 111919290a discloses a process for transferring a piezoelectric layer onto a carrier substrate, said process comprising: (1) Providing a donor substrate comprising a heterostructure including a piezoelectric substrate bonded to an handle substrate, and a polymerized adhesive layer located at an interface between the piezoelectric substrate and the handle substrate; (2) Forming a weakened region in the piezoelectric substrate, thereby defining a piezoelectric layer to be transferred; (3) providing a carrier substrate; (4) Forming a dielectric layer on a main surface of the carrier substrate and/or the piezoelectric substrate; (5) Bonding the donor substrate to the carrier substrate, the dielectric layer being located at the bonding interface; (6) The donor substrate is divided and separated along the weakened region at a temperature lower than or equal to 300 ℃. The process introduces the organic UV ultraviolet curing optical adhesive, the risk of contamination of the organic UV optical adhesive exists, and a large room for improvement is left.
Therefore, how to provide a composite piezoelectric substrate and a preparation method thereof, eliminate deformation caused by thermal expansion coefficient difference in the thermal annealing process, realize the recycling of piezoelectric materials, simplify the process flow, avoid the use of organic UV optical adhesive, reduce the processing cost and improve the product yield, and become the urgent problem to be solved by the current technicians in the field.
