It is mainly used to make cantilever beams, Thin film 10 (Diaphragm), cavity (Cavity), micro flow control system (Micr0_fluidic system), inkjet print head (Ink_jet printing device), and so on. The manufacturing technology of the Lachung Electromechanical System can be roughly divided into four categories, namely surface stone processing, body silicon processing, LIGA technology, and various micro-machining technologies. Surface-type Shixiji processing refers to the fabrication of micromechanical components on silicon wafers using thin film deposition and etching techniques of semiconductor processes. Bulk silicon-based processing refers to the use of anisotropic etching, etching termination, and etching masks to etch the silicon wafer itself to produce micromechanical components. UGA technology combines X-ray lithography, electroforming and injection molding to produce high-aspect-ratio micromechanical structures. Micromachining uses micromachining, electrical discharge machining or injection molding to produce micro-20 mechanical components. The etching termination technology of anisotropic etching in manufacturing technology is mainly divided into the following types: P + automatic stop etching technology, which is heavily doped into silicon wafers with impurities (such as boron ion concentration greater than 1019cnr3), forming An etch stop layer to control the thickness of the film, but it will cause the production of pollution and stress of the component 6 591708 and the cost is high; the electrochemical automatically stops the etching, in order to use the ρ-type stone with η-type epitaxial layer The ρ_η junction surface formed by the wafer is subjected to a reverse bias for the remaining time and the voltage drop is controlled so that the money cutting liquid can only be left to a specific thickness range. There are also similar or improved technologies such as: Photo-Assisted Electrochemical Etch Stop technology uses lightly doped n-type silicon wafers and light intensity to control the etching rate; v-groove depth gauge monitoring is first processed {1〇〇 } Silicon wafer, to produce a series of V-shaped groove arrays with different widths in areas outside the component fabrication area. The etching depth has a fixed relationship with the opening width. Then, when wet etching the back of the silicon wafer, Eroded by 10 The thickness of the silicon thin film is determined by the width of the opening in the known V-shaped groove; and the Silicon On Insulator (SOI) stop #engraving technology is based on the thickness of the silicon layer on the device layer Determine the thickness of the required Shi Xi film (generally several micrometers to several tens of micrometers), sandwich a silicon dioxide layer 15 (Si02), etc. in the silicon layer of the device layer and the handle layer. The etching solution is stopped when the etching solution is etched from the second surface manipulation layer silicon wafer to the silicon dioxide layer by etching. The main feature of the above technology is the non-real-time monitoring of the thickness of the wet-etched silicon film. The current main technology for real-time monitoring of wet-etched silicon film etch stop is Hiroshi Tosaka et al., "Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering", 1995, Issue 5, pages 41 ~ 46, `` Optical in situ monitoring of "Silicon diaphragm thickness during wet etching" proposed the optical stop 14 etch technique, which uses the difference in the wavelength range of the absorbed light of the silicon film and the etching solution at the same time as the insect etch. The interference spectrometer detects the light in the wavelength range of the absorbed light of the silicon film. The intensity change is 7 to know the thickness of the Shixi film. The limitation of this method is that the film must be able to transmit light. Therefore, the range of debt measurement is limited to only 2 ~ 20μπχ. "The present invention mainly provides another non-optical real-time monitoring of wetness. The name of the engraved stop technology of the button-engraved Shi Xi film is to expand its scope to facilitate the production of silicon film thickness for various micro-electromechanical components. [Summary of the invention] The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for real-time monitoring of the wet film thickness, which can directly measure the micron level = film thickness in the wet time, without the need to move the film to the outside. The measurement can make it more conducive to future work, and reduce the cost and increase the precision of the dream film thickness in mass production. The other purpose of the invention is to provide _ a kind of thin and real-time monitoring device applied to engraving Shi Xi, which can accurately measure Shi Xi film = thickness when wet engraving, and this device has high accuracy, structure Simple and productive. In order to achieve the above, the present invention relates to a method for real-time monitoring of engraved stones on wet money, including the following steps: ⑷ depositing a piezoelectric film on a first surface of a -P or n-type cavity: Material, and change at least one pair of itchy and finger-shaped transducers in the piezoelectric thin shape; ⑻ connect the dual-port interdigital finger benefit with a monitoring frequency system, and will be opposite to that of the Shi Xi wafer Brother-the surface without the finger-shaped transducer-the second surface is immersed in a ^ etch solution 'so that the immersion in the ㈣ solution ㈣% wafer begins to be engraved; — “Yu Qibu ’s 5 -u electro-membrane material generates a surface acoustic wave due to the piezoelectric effect ', the surface acoustic wave is transmitted to another — the corresponding fork household ㈣ — Fuyu transducer, 0, this device receives The surface acoustic wave is converted into a signal j to a μ-controlled frequency system, and the surface frequency acoustic = one of the center frequency response is obtained by the monitoring frequency system. Then, the _ is formed on the wafer-Shi Xi thin = 2 and ⑷ When the The diaphragm reaches the preset thickness, and the stone etch is removed to finish the wet etching. 10 15 = Into the above, the hair The Ming Department has an instant monitoring device applied to wet etching—the film thickness, in which the p-type or η-type dream wafer: the first side has-a piezoelectric film material and at least-a dual-port interdigital transducer II 'The real-time monitoring device includes: a surname is engraved to support the silicon wafer;-network analyzer' and the dual-port finger-shaped energy conversion for simultaneous monitoring during wet conditions The interdigital energy conversion »the output frequency 'and-a wet remaining groove, which is in contact with the second surface of the Shi Xi wafer thin film material, to etch the Shi Xi crystal β, wherein when the net The channel analyzer inputs a voltage to one of the interdigital transducers. The piezoelectric film material will generate a surface sound due to the piezoelectric effect, and the surface acoustic wave will be transmitted to another corresponding port. Transducer =, the finger transducer will convert the received surface acoustic wave into electrical signal output 'and the center frequency response of the surface acoustic wave will be obtained by the network analyzer to detect the formation of the silicon wafer in real time The thickness of a silicon film. [Embodiment] 20 The method of the present invention is mainly In order to take advantage of the characteristics of surface acoustic wave elements, it is applied to the wet-etched silicon film thickness real-time monitoring device, which is matched with an n-type or? -Type silicon s-Yuan, which has a piezoelectric film material on the forward surface. There is at least one dual-port interdigital transducer on the material.

The etching mask layer may also be gold metal. Chromium metal is wrapped in between the circles to increase the adhesion of the gold metal layer to the Shixi wafer. The piezoelectric thin film material is preferably metal organic vapor deposition (MOCVD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), spray pyrolysis method (sol-pyrolysis method), and sol-gel method (sol-gel method). meth〇d), DC triode sputtering, or RF magnetron Qian (RF called her sp fiber plus magic, etc.); piezoelectric thin film materials can be directly deposited on silicon wafers, or The other materials are added between the piezoelectric thin film material and the silicon wafer due to the previous process. This material is based on whether it can be deposited with the piezoelectric thin film material in a good direction (0022 axis 591708 direction) to determine whether it is forming a pressure. Remove the electrical thin film material before, for example, ^ = curtain: when it will be formed on the first surface of Shi Xi wafer, the piezoelectric thin dielectric material can be directly deposited on the etching mask curtain layer (such as the piezoelectric thin film material oxide = product On the two oxygen cuts of the thermal oxidation growth of the high temperature furnace tube, it is because zinc oxide is 1: good for an emulsified stone, gold, Ming, turn, quartz, nitrided stone, and cured stone (called the axis direction), But if the layer i of the mask is not engraved on the surface, the button mask of the surface of the piezoelectric film material is to be formed. The curtain layer is removed; and the word = financial system is better-a network analyzer, in which the monitoring frequency system ^ 15 is connected to the interdigital transducer, and the thickness of multiple thin layers of stone is simultaneously monitored by monitoring conversion.

If the piezoelectric thin film material used to make the square wave sensing acoustic wave sensor is formed, it can be integrated with the piezoelectric thin film material of the method to simplify the process steps. X: Especially for the finger-shaped transducer, its structure is described in many literatures. ”Tian Zhi's 5 brothers' are mainly divided into two types. One is that the electrode strips intersect and mate with each other: the ends are connected by the bus bar. As if the two combs are in the wrong position, as shown in Figure 丨: Another-a pair of opposite electrode strips are arranged to cross each other. In the transducer, usually the pole position T and electrode strip pitch S are the same, and can produce the same phase surface-acoustic wave. The width of the electrode strip and the strip pitch of the interdigital transducer are usually equal to four points. One of the wavelengths of surface acoustic waves. The width of the electrode strips and the distance between the electrode strips of the interdigital transducer are usually equal to one-eighth of the length of the surface acoustic wave. The shorter the interdigit overlapping length W of the interdigital transducer, the shorter Causes the diffraction of acoustic waves. The longer the coupling is, the stronger the coupling will be. However, it will cause a zigzag around the resonance peak, so it is usually designed between 30 and 100 times the wavelength. In terms of the number of interdigits, the more the number, the better the radiation power. The stronger the signal, but limited by size, the number still has its limit. The acoustic wave transmission distance d 10 2 of the finger transducer is an integer multiple of the wavelength, but it should not be too close to cause electromagnetic feedthrough or too far to cause the transmitted signal to be unreceivable. It is preferred to use one of the two methods in the present invention. The opposite electrode strips are arranged to cross each other, and the two ends are connected by a bus bar, and the width of the electrode strips and the distance between the electrode strips of the interdigital transducer are equal to one-eighth of the surface acoustic wave wavelength. The reflected wave of the device is lower than one-eighth of the surface acoustic wave wavelength: the surface acoustic wave wavelength is greatly reduced. In addition, the wavelength (λ) of the surface acoustic wave designed by the present invention is based on the thickness range of the Shixi film measured according to the required debt Different, a moderate adjustment can be made in the design. 20 ㈤ pressure sensor and accelerometer, micro-electromechanical components need to be precisely 2 shi Xi film 'so precise control of the thickness of the ㈣ film during chemical ㈣ is very important for the post-process; especially It is in the micro-electromechanical acoustic wave sensor, micron level: two: the film is 'desirably synchronized to be monitored' when it is made. This is because the silicon thin film is proportional to the frequency response. The wet film thickness of the present invention can be performed immediately in wet conditions. , Directly measure the micron-scale Shi Xi thin 12 film thickness' without the need to move the diaphragm to the outside measurement, and facilitate the subsequent process operations in the production can reduce costs, increase the accuracy of Shi Xi film thickness, The thickness of the silicon thin film can meet the product requirements in micro-electromechanical components. In order to allow your reviewers to better understand the technical content of the present invention, two preferred specific embodiments are described below. Room Example 1 In this embodiment, the use of The process of making Shixi film by the wet etching silicon film thickness real-time monitoring device is shown in Fig. 3.
