The MEMS sensing device 100 includes a MEMS pressure sensitive chip. The MEMS pressure sensing chip is a thin film element. In this embodiment, when the MEMS sensing device 100 deforms under pressure, the sensing circuit layer 102 is a pressure sensing circuit layer, and the sensing resistor layer 1021 is a piezoresistive layer. In other embodiments, the MEMS sensing device may sense other signals from the outside to change the sensing resistor layer.
The detection circuit layer 102 has an opening 1023 penetrating the detection circuit layer 102; the sensing resistor layer 1021 surrounds the opening 1023. The substrate layer 101 has a device semiconductor layer 130 on a surface thereof. The detection circuit layer 102 is located in the device semiconductor layer 130.
In other embodiments, no opening may be provided in the detection circuit layer 102.
The detection circuit layer 102 includes a sensing resistor layer 1021 and a lead layer 1022. In this embodiment, the sensing resistor layers 1021 are piezoresistive layers, the number of the sensing resistor layers 1021 is several, and the sensing resistor layers 1021 are separated from each other. The lead layer 1022 is located at a side of the sensing resistor layer 1021 and is adjacent to the sensing resistor layer 1021. The lead layer 1022 and the sensing resistor layer 1021 surround the opening 1023.
The opening 1023 is used for spatially separating part of the parallel sensor resistance layers 1021 in the detection circuit layer, so as to prevent mutual influence of currents between the parallel sensor resistance layers 1021; the MEMS sensing device can effectively realize current crosstalk between the sensing resistor layers connected in parallel even at high temperature, and the sensitivity and the detection accuracy of the MEMS sensing device are further improved.
The lead layer 1022 has the same conductivity type as the conductive type of the sense resistor layer 1021. The material of the sensing resistance layer 1021 comprises doped monocrystalline silicon; the doping concentration of the conductive ions in the sensing resistance layer 1021 is 1E14/cm3-1E22/cm3
When the opening 1023 is provided, the conduction type of the lead layer 1022 and the conduction type of the sense resistor layer 1021 are both N-type or P-type.
In other embodiments, the detection circuit layer is not provided with an opening, the sensing resistor layer has a P-type conductivity, the lead layer has a P-type conductivity, the sensing resistor layer has an N-type conductivity in the region surrounded by the sensing resistor layers, the sensing resistor layer and the lead layer form a PN junction, and the region surrounded by the sensing resistor layer and the lead layer is difficult to be conducted to the sensing resistor layer and the lead layer by utilizing the reverse bias cutoff performance of the PN junction, so that current crosstalk does not occur between the sensing resistor layers connected in parallel in the MEMS sensing device at low temperature, and current crosstalk does not occur between the lead layers connected in parallel.
In this embodiment, the MEMS sensing device 100 further includes a first insulating layer 103, and the first insulating layer 103 is located on a surface of the detection circuit layer 102 facing away from the substrate layer 101. The role of the first insulating layer 103 includes: the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 and the sensing resistance layer 1021 are isolated, and the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 is prevented from being in direct contact with the sensing resistance layer 1021; supporting the function of voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104. The material of the first insulating layer 103 includes: one or a combination of two of silicon nitride or silicon oxide.
The voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104 is located on the substrate layer 101. In this embodiment, the voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104 is located on a side of the partial sensing resistance layer 1021 opposite to the substrate layer 101, which is beneficial in that: the voltage division resistance doping layer 104 and the sensing resistance layer 1021 are vertically stacked, so that the whole area of the chip can be reduced; secondly, since the materials of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 and the sensing resistance layer 1021 can be selected differently, the material selection of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 is not limited by the material selection of the sensing resistance layer 1021, and accordingly, the temperature coefficient of resistance of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 is not limited by the selection of the temperature coefficient of resistance of the sensing resistance layer 1021; thirdly, by selecting appropriate materials for the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 and the sensing resistance layer 1021, in the process of preparing the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 and the sensing resistance layer 1021, the etching selection ratio of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 and the sensing resistance layer 1021 is improved, and the process difficulty is reduced.
In other embodiments, the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer and the detection circuit layer are arranged on the same layer, which can reduce the thickness of the chip and flatten the chip.
In this embodiment, the material of the sensing resistor layer 1021 is selected from doped monocrystalline silicon, so that the temperature coefficient of resistance of the sensing resistor layer 1021 is positive; the lead layer 1022 with a higher doping concentration of conductive ions can lower the resistivity of the lead layer 1022, which can lower the resistance of the lead layer 1022 and facilitate the detection of the circuit conduction of the circuit layer 102.
In this embodiment, the conductive ions in the sensing resistor layer 1021 have a higher concentration, which may be the same as the conductive ions used in the lead layer 1022, and can be doped at the same time during the manufacturing process.
In other embodiments, the sensing resistor layer may use a smaller doping concentration of the conductive ions, and the doping concentration of the conductive ions in the sensing resistor layer is smaller than the doping concentration of the conductive ions in the lead layer, so that the resistivity of the sensing resistor layer is larger, and the area occupied by the sensing resistor layer is not too large when the sensing resistor layer within a certain resistance range is set, thereby improving the integration level of the MEMS sensing device. The material of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer is doped polycrystalline silicon, the resistivity of the polycrystalline silicon is large relative to monocrystalline silicon, and the doping concentration of conductive ions in the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer is smaller than that of conductive ions in the sensing resistance layer, so that the conductivity of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer is smaller than that of the sensing resistance layer, the occupied area of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer is not too small when the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer within a certain resistance range is set, and the patterning difficulty of preparing the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer is reduced.
In this embodiment, the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 has a suitable resistance temperature coefficient by doping, and the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 has different doping concentrations, so that the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 has different resistance temperature coefficients. The doping concentration explained in the process may be selected so that the voltage-dividing resistance-doped layer 104 has an appropriate temperature coefficient of resistance. In one embodiment, the doping concentration of the conductive ions in the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 is 1E14/cm3-1E18/cm3
When the material of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 is doped polysilicon, the doping concentration can be controlled, so that the resistance temperature coefficient of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 presents a negative resistance temperature coefficient.
In this embodiment, the MEMS sensing device 100 further includes a contact doping portion 105, the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 and the contact doping portion 105 are located on a surface of the first insulating layer 103 on a side facing away from the detection circuit layer 102, and the contact doping portion 105 is located on two sides of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 and is adjacent to the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104; the contact doping portion 105 is used as a connection point of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 to be connected with the detection circuit layer 102.
The voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104 is connected in series with the detection circuit layer 102, and specifically, the voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104 is electrically connected with the lead layer 1022. This can reduce the contact resistance of the voltage-dividing resistance-doped layer 104 and the first conductive connection member 106 by the ion-heavily doped contact doping portion 105.
The conductivity type of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 is the same as the conductivity type of the contact doping portion 105; the material of the contact doping 105 comprises doped polysilicon; preferably, the doping concentration of the conductive ions in the contact doping part 105 is greater than the doping concentration of the conductive ions in the contact doping part 105. In a specific embodiment, this may reduce the contact resistance of the voltage-dividing resistance-doped layer 104 with the first conductive connection 106. The doping concentration of the conductive ions in the contact doping part 105 is 1E19/cm3-1E22/cm3
In this embodiment, the MEMS sensing device 100 further includes a first conductive connecting element 106, the first conductive connecting element 106 is located on a portion of the lead layer 1022, and the first conductive connecting element 106 penetrates through the first insulating layer 103 and is connected to the contact doping portion 105, so that the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 is electrically connected to the detection circuit layer 102. In one embodiment, the MEMS sensing device 100 further includes a second conductive connecting member 108, the first conductive connecting member 106 is located on a portion of the lead layer 1022, the first conductive connecting member 106 penetrates the first insulating layer 103, as seen in fig. 2, a portion of the second conductive connecting member 108 is used as a first voltage output terminal, and a portion of the second conductive connecting member 108 (lower left corner in fig. 2) is used for electrically connecting to a ground terminal.
In an embodiment, the MEMS sensing device 100 further includes a second insulating layer 107 disposed on a surface of the voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104 facing away from the detection circuit layer 102 and adjacent to a side of the first conductive connection 106. Further, the second insulating layer 107 covers the entire surface of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 and extends to a portion of the top surface of the contact doping portion 105. The functions of the second insulating layer 107 include: the voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104 and the first conductive connecting member 106 are isolated, and the first conductive connecting member 106 is prevented from being directly connected with the voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104. The material of the second insulating layer 107 includes one or a combination of silicon oxide and silicon nitride.
The conductivity type of the voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104 is the same as the conductivity type of the sensing resistance layer 1021.
In one embodiment, the conductivity type of the voltage-dividing resistance doped layer 104 and the conductivity type of the sensing resistance layer 1021 are both P-type. The stress distribution of the N-type sensing resistance layer is not uniform, a region needs to be etched on the back surface of the sensing film layer and a stress block needs to be filled in the region to change the stress distribution, so that the height fluctuation between the film layers is large during preparation, and the preparation flow is complex. The stress distribution of the P-type sensing resistance layer is uniform, the stress blocks do not need to be filled, the process preparation flow is simple, and the flatness of the sensing film layer is good.
Fig. 3 shows an equivalent circuit of the MEMS sensing device provided by the present invention. Fig. 3 illustrates the detection circuit layer 102 as a wheatstone bridge. The sensing resistors comprise a first sensing resistor R1, a second sensing resistor R2, a third sensing resistor R3 and a fourth sensing resistor R4, and the voltage dividing resistor Rp is electrically connected with the Wheatstone bridge. When the MEMS sensing device is stressed, the sensing film layer deforms, deformation information generated by the sensing film layer is transmitted to the first sensing resistor R1, the second sensing resistor R2, the third sensing resistor R3 and the fourth sensing resistor R4, and resistance values of the first sensing resistor R1, the second sensing resistor R2, the third sensing resistor R3 and the fourth sensing resistor R4 are changed.
The wheatstone bridge has a symmetrical structure, and for a fixed temperature, the overall resistance of the wheatstone bridge remains unchanged, and the resistance of the voltage dividing resistor Rp remains unchanged, so that the input voltage Vin1 of the wheatstone bridge remains unchanged, and Vin1 is Vs × R/(R + Rp), where R is the total resistance of the wheatstone bridge. When not under pressure, the initial values of R1-R4 are all R, and the equivalent resistance of the Wheatstone bridge is also R. Since the resistance value of R1 decreases with increasing pressure, the resistance value of R2 increases with increasing pressure, the resistance value of R3 decreases with increasing pressure, the resistance value of R4 increases with increasing pressure, the series resistance values of R1 and R2 do not change with pressure, and the series resistance values of R3 and R4 do not change with pressure, the total resistance of the Wheatstone bridge is constant with changing pressure.
For a fixed operating temperature, when compressed, Δ Vout1 is Vout+-Vout-Vin ((R2)/(R1+ R2) - (R3)/(R3+ R4)) -Vin ((R + a)/2R- (R-a)/2R ═ Vin a/R.a is the amount of resistance change caused when the sense resistance is subjected to pressure.
When the operating temperature increases, and when stressed, Δ Vout2 ═ Vout+-Vout-Vin ((R2)/(R1+ R2) - (R3)/(R3+ R4)) ═ Vin ((R "+ a)/2R" - (R "-a)/2R") ═ Vin a/R ", where R" ═ R (1+ k1 b), b is the temperature change, and k1 is the temperature coefficient of resistance of each sense resistor, so Δ vout2 ═ Vin a/R (1+ k1 b) ═ Vin c. c ═ a/R (1+ k1 ×) b. c is the sensitivity function.
And c [ pi _ l (d/h) ^2 ^ 1-v) ], pi _ l is the piezoresistive coefficient, d/h is the ratio of the width to the film thickness of the sensing resistor (when square), and v is the poisson ratio, and since the piezoresistive coefficient pi _ l decreases with the increase of the temperature, the sensitivity function c is monotonically decreased with the increase of the temperature, so that Δ vout2 decreases with the increase of the temperature when Vin is constant.
To compensate for the output voltage of Δ vout2, it is therefore necessary to increase the voltage value of Vin, where: when the operating temperature increases, Vin2 ═ Vs ═ R "/(R" + Rp) ═ R (1+ k1 ×/(R + k1 × + Rp (1+ k2 ×) and, when the temperature change b is not equal to 0, Vin2 ═ Vs (R + R ×/(k 1 ×/+ R + Rp + R ×) k1 ×/+ Rp 2 ×) are present (R + R ×/(+ 1 ×/+ R + Rp + b) (+ k1+ Rp k 2)).
Derivative of Vin2 with respect to b can be found as Vin2 derivative of Vin 2', Vin2 ═ R × Rp (k1-k2)/((R × k1+ Rp × k2) × b + R + Rp) ^ 2; therefore, the relationship between Vin2 and temperature is required to be positive, so k1-k2 must be greater than 0, i.e., k1> k 2. In addition, the denominator of the expression of Vin2 ' has a coefficient of b, and when the value of the denominator of the expression of Vin2 ' is smaller, it can be realized that Vin2 ' is larger, and the increasing speed of the result value of compensating Vin is faster, so that the smaller the value of Rk1+ Rpk2 is, the stronger the compensation effect is, and since R and Rp are both positive numbers, the better the compensation effect is than k2>0 when k2< 0.
Assuming that the bridge arm resistance of the wheatstone bridge is 1k Ω, and the temperature coefficient of the wheatstone bridge is k1 ═ 0.0019, when the temperature is from 25 ℃ to 270 ℃ (i.e. the variation range of b), if there is no setting of the voltage dividing resistor, the output voltage of the wheatstone bridge will drop by 30%; therefore, the voltage of Vin2 needs to be increased, and according to the functional relationship between Vin2 and b, the voltage of Vin2 at 270 ℃ can be increased by adjusting the coefficient value of b, the coefficient of b is R × k1+ Rp × k2, when k2 is less than 0, the voltage of Vin2 at 270 ℃ can be increased by 1.4 times as compared with 25 ℃, and Δ vout2 is kept unchanged compared with the case of uncompensated state, so that the function of effective compensation can be achieved, and the reduction of the sensitivity of the MEMS sensing device can be effectively avoided.
Therefore, when the doping conditions of the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 are appropriately selected, the voltage-dividing resistance doping layer 104 obtains a negative temperature coefficient of resistance, and a better compensation effect can be achieved.

Referring to fig. 5, the glass substrate 200 and the substrate layer 101 are attached to form a closed structure in the through cavity 1014, and thus, an absolute pressure sensor chip is formed.
