Abstract

PURPOSE:To adjust the flatness and thickness of a diaphragm thin section easily by forming a plurality of diffusion resistance layers as pressure-sensitive sections to one main surface of an silicon semiconductor base body and forming an indentation section to the other main surface of the base body so that the pressure-sensitive sections function as the thin diaphragm sections. CONSTITUTION:The ions of O2 or N2 are implanted to a diaphragm region in the surface 1A of a p type impurity doped high-resistivity silicon substrate 1 through a mask 5. An n type impurity doped-silicon crystal layer 6 is formed. p type diffusion resistance layers 7 are shaped in the diaphragm region while a required semiconductor region for an IC is also formed to a peripheral section. A film 8 consisting of an insulator is formed at that time. An indentation section 2 is dug to the back of the substrate through anisotropic etching to the back 1B of the substrate 1. The insulating film 8 shaped between the substrate 1 and the epitaxial layer 6 functions as an etching stopper and the depth of the indentation section 2 is controlled at that time, and a diaphragm with a required thin section is formed.

[Technical Field] The present invention relates to a technology for forming a semiconductor diaphragm in a semiconductor pressure-sensitive device, and is mainly directed to a silicon diaphragm expansion pressure sensor. [Background technology] Unlike mechanical pressure sensors that used bourdon tubes or bellows, conductor pressure sensors can be expected to be ultra-miniaturized and have higher performance.A typical example is a silicon diaphragm bulge pressure sensor. be. The structure of the silicon diaphragm bulge pressure sensor is as shown in the cross-sectional view in FIG. 1 and in the bottom view in FIG. None, an elongated gauge diffusion resistance layer 4 is arranged on the surface (IA) of the diaphragm thin wall portion 3 (four pieces arranged in parallel), and the above diffusion is caused by the deformation (strain) of the thin wall portion due to the pressure difference between the upper and lower sides of the diaphragm. The expansion and contraction of the resistive layer is electrically detected as a change in the bridge-coupled resistance value. In such a silicon diaphragm pressure sensor, controlling the thickness of the thin portion of the diaphragm where the diffusion resistance layer is disposed is extremely important for the performance of the diaphragm pressure sensor. To form a diaphragm recess in a semiconductor substrate serving as a pressure sensor, an anisotropic etching technique based on the orientation of a silicon single crystal substrate is usually used. For example, on the main surface of a silicon single crystal substrate (wafer) (
100) When performing anisotropic etching using an alkaline solution such as KOH using lfi, a recess with a steep slope on the side surface 1□ can be obtained, but due to crystal defects etc. ) diaphragm cannot be obtained. In particular, in order to excavate the thickness of the thin wall part, that is, the depth of the recessed part, to the required dimensions, it is necessary to control the concentration of the etchant, the processing temperature, and the processing time, but with this method, an error of ±4 μm can be avoided. The inventor found that it was difficult to obtain a highly accurate diaphragm for this reason. [Object of the invention] The present invention

[7] The purpose is to provide a semiconductor diaphragm forming technique that allows easy control of the flatness and thickness of the thin portion of the diaphragm. The above and other objects and novel features of the present invention will become apparent from the description of this specification and the accompanying drawings. [Summary of the Invention] A brief outline of typical inventions disclosed in this paper is as follows. That is,
A semiconductor pressure-sensitive device in which a plurality of diffused resistance layers are formed as a pressure-sensitive part on the second surface of a silicon semiconductor substrate, and a recess is dug by etching the other main surface of the substrate so that the pressure-sensitive part becomes a thin-walled diaphragm part. This is a manufacturing method in which an insulating film is embedded in advance at the bottom of the semiconductor layer that becomes the thin part, and the presence of this insulating film allows the etch depth when etching the recess to be precisely controlled, thereby achieving the object of the invention. . [Embodiment] FIGS. 3 to 7 show an embodiment of the present invention, and are cross-sectional views of a process in which a diaphragm sensor is manufactured using a silicon crystal substrate. Each step will be explained in detail below. (1) Prepare a P-type impurity-doped high-resistivity silicon substrate 1 with a thickness of about 400 μm, and introduce O or N2 into the diaphragm region of the surface IA through a mask 5 by ion implantation as shown in FIG. . The ion implantation energy at this time was 250 KeV. The impurity concentration is 1016 atoms 10x'', and the implantation depth is approximately 0.2 μm.
An n-type impurity-doped silicon crystal layer (n
isi layer) 6 is formed. (3) After this, using the usual selective impurity diffusion technique, as shown in FIG.
At the same time, a necessary IC semiconductor element region (not shown) is also formed in the peripheral portion. At this time, the heat treatment (1200° C.) accompanying the diffusion activates the 0 or N introduced in the step (1) above, and the interface between the PFI8i substrate and the epitaxial n-type Si layer 6 becomes Si,
Alternatively, a film 8 of an insulator such as 51gN4 is formed. (4) After this, the back surface IB of the above semiconductor substrate is polished to a mirror surface, and a resist (corrosion-resistant resin) or oxide film (Sin, )'
A mask 9 is formed according to the method described above, and anisotropic etching is performed to form a diaphragm through a circular window of this mask. This anisotropic etch is performed in advance so that the main surface of the silicon crystal substrate (
100) and using an alkaline solution such as KOH as an etchant, the inclination angle θ-57
A concave portion (a hexagonal concave portion close to a circle) 2 of ° is dug on the back surface of the substrate. The insulating film 8, such as 5iOz or Si3N film, formed between the scraping substrate 1 and the epitaxial layer 6 acts as an etch stopper to control the depth of the recessed part 2, thereby forming a diaphragm with a desired thin part. is formed. Further, the thickness of the diaphragm thin portion is determined by the thickness of the epitaxial layer. However, since the thickness of the epitaxial layer can be controlled with high precision, a desired thickness can be obtained. In other words, while the #A film thickness accuracy of the thin diaphragm part due to etching is within ±4 μm,
The film thickness accuracy of epitaxial growth can be controlled within a range of 11 μm. [Effects] According to the present invention described in the examples above, the following effects can be obtained. (1) By performing anisotropic etching using an alkaline solution from the back side of the substrate with an insulating film formed inside the conductor substrate, the insulating film is hardly etched by the alkaline solution, so this acts as a stopper and allows the required etching to be performed. Since a concave portion having a desired depth and shape is obtained, the flatness and uniformity of the thickness of the diaphragm can be obtained, and a pressure-sensitive sensor with excellent characteristics can be provided. (2) Since the thickness of the thin portion of the tire phragm can be controlled by the thickness of the epitaxial layer, a desired thickness of the thin portion of the diaphragm can be obtained. (31) According to (2) above, a highly sensitive pressure-sensitive sensor having an extremely thin diaphragm can be provided. Also, if the diaphragm is thick, a pressure-sensitive sensor that can be used at high pressures can be provided. (4) (11-- (3) makes it possible to provide a pressure sensor that is mass-producible and highly accurate.The invention made by the inventor has been specifically described above based on examples, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned examples. , it goes without saying that various changes can be made without departing from the gist of the invention. [Field of Application] The above description will mainly focus on the invention made by the present inventor with reference to the field of application, which is the semiconductor pressure-sensitive device. Although the description has been made regarding the case where the application is applied to the technology, the present invention is not limited thereto, and can be applied at least to conditions where highly accurate film thickness can be obtained by etching. Applicable to all pressure sensors.
