Description
本发明属于光电探测技术领域,具体涉及一种具有高效能谐振腔的红外探测器及其制备方法。
红外成像系统是依靠目标与背景的热辐射产生景物图像的系统,能24小时全天候工作,并能透过伪装探测出隐藏的热目标。红外探测器是红外成像系统的核心组件,能够以光电效应和热电效应将入射的红外信号转变为电信号输出。但为了进一步提高器件集成度,在红外探测器上方叠加其它硅基探测结构时,由于红外光在穿透上方材料的过程中不可避免存在吸收,使得红外敏感薄膜接收到的红外信号减弱,从而影响探测器的探测效率。因此迫切需要设计新的吸收结构,进一步提高穿透上方结构进入红外探测结构的红外信号的利用率。
【发明内容】
本发明为了解决上述问题,提供了一种具有高效能谐振腔的红外探测器及其制备方法,谐振腔的上表面为其它探测结构背面的半透半反膜,谐振腔的下表面为背于集成电路所在衬底上表面的全反射膜。与传统红外探测器件相比,该谐振腔的腔体高度仅有数微米,腔体空间大大减小,更容易形成及保持较高真空,避免空气对流引起的热损失。另外,谐振腔内的敏感层位于谐振腔的正中间,敏感层薄膜周围除了两个引出电信号的支撑柱之外,没有其它与其直接接触的材料,降低了热传导引起的热损失,使入射红外信号引起的温升尽可能多地转换为电信号输出。而且该探测器结构中光在谐振腔中反射一个来回,可以穿透敏感层薄膜两次,从而进一步提高探测器对红外信号的吸收利用率。

步骤1:制备谐振腔的上片结构;
取双面抛光硅片作为上衬底,在上衬底的下表面通过电子束蒸发法沉积上铬薄膜及上反射层,在上反射层上涂光刻胶后曝光、显影、湿法腐蚀、去除光刻胶,完成上铬薄膜及上反射层的图形化;在上反射层表面再一次涂光刻胶、曝光、显影、后烘,然后镀导电金属,去除光刻胶,上反射层的A

与现有技术相比,本发明具有以下有益效果:
本发明公开了一种具有高效能谐振腔的红外探测器,该探测器将谐振腔置于硅片内部的结构不仅可以提高器件集成度,而且可以极大地提高红外信号利用率。谐振腔位于 器件内部,而敏感层薄膜位于谐振腔中间,敏感层薄膜与上反射层和下反射层之间的间隙在器件封装后被抽成真空,能够避免空气对流引起的散热,而且该谐振腔的腔体高度仅有数微米,腔体空间小,更容易形成及保持较高真空。上衬底背面的金属层作为上反射层,其厚度较薄,为半透半反膜;下衬底上的上表面的金属层作为下反射层,其厚度较厚,为全反射膜;光穿透半透半反的上反射层,进入谐振腔,穿过敏感层薄膜,到达下反射层,然后向上全反射,再次经过敏感层薄膜,从而光在谐振腔中反射一个来回,就可以穿过中间的敏感层薄膜两次,使得穿透敏感层薄膜的次数增多,从而增加了光吸收率。在传统的内谐振腔和外谐振腔吸收结构中,敏感层薄膜分别作为谐振腔上反射面和下反射面,光在这种结构中反射一个来回,仅到达敏感层薄膜表面一次,光利用率较本发明低,而且传统结构中的敏感薄膜上镀有反射层,热质量大,相同红外信号入射,引起的温升及阻值变化小,导致探测器灵敏度低。而本发明提出的谐振腔结构可避免上述问题。
进一步的,谐振腔内设置有两个支撑柱支撑敏感层薄膜,使得敏感层薄膜在谐振腔内稳定牢固,且其上下可以抽成真空,减少空气对流引起敏感薄膜的热损失。.
进一步的,敏感层薄膜的厚度为50-500nm,选用红外热敏感材料,起到热敏电阻的作用,作为测辐射热计,质量体积越小越好。薄膜的厚度不能太厚,薄膜越厚,热质量越大,导致吸收相同的红外辐射,温升小,降低探测器灵敏度;若薄膜的厚度太薄,很难被支撑。
进一步的,上金属柱和下金属柱高度皆为谐振腔工作波段中心波长的1/8,因此谐振腔的高度为该探测器工作波长的1/4以形成谐振驻波,增强谐振腔内光的吸收率;
进一步的,上反射层的厚度限制为5-50nm,下反射层的厚度限制为100-1000nm。上反射层是半透半反的金属膜,下反射层是全反射的金属膜。
进一步的,每一个衬底和反射金属层之间增设有铬薄膜,以增加硅衬底和反射金属层之间的粘附性。
进一步的,上金属柱和下金属柱均选用导电金属,其中两对金属柱分别键合在一起支撑谐振腔;另两个金属柱支撑敏感层薄膜,测量敏感层薄膜由于吸收红外辐射引起的阻值变化,并与探测结构下方读出电路连接,将探测到的红外辐射信号转化成电信号,引到背面的集成电路进行信号处理。
进一步的,本发明的集成电路分为处理电路和存储电路,处理电路用于信号的放大处理、降噪处理、图像生成、目标的识别和匹配等计算,存储电路用于目标的特征库及图像信息的存储。
本发明还公开了一种具有高效能谐振腔的红外探测器的制备方法,该方法首先单独制备出上片结构和下片结构,然后在下片制备牺牲层,刻蚀接触孔,沉积敏感薄膜,去除牺牲层;然后将上金属柱和下金属柱对应键合,形成具有光学谐振腔的红外探测器。该探测器结构新颖,制备流程简单,而且红外探测器探测效率得以提高。
进一步的,步骤1中的第二次涂光刻胶的厚度高于上金属柱的高度,步骤2中的第二次涂光刻胶的厚度高于下金属柱和支撑柱的高度,均是为了方便刻胶的剥离。

2上设置有两个凸出的支撑柱14,共同支撑敏感层薄膜3。上金属柱9、下金属柱10和支撑柱14的长度均为谐振腔工作中心波长的1/8,且均为导电金属,如金、银、铜、铝等;
参见图6,当上金属柱9和下金属柱10键合在一起时,上衬底1和下衬底5之间形成空腔,该空腔和上反射层2和下反射层4共同构成谐振腔11,上金属柱9和下金属柱10为支撑结构,同时起限定谐振腔高度的作用;当上金属柱9和下金属柱10键合在一起时,腔体高度为上金属柱9和下金属柱10长度之和,即谐振腔工作中心波长的1/4,以形成共振增强吸收;
参见图2和图5所示B-B截面,谐振腔11内设置有平行于上衬底1和下衬底5的敏感层薄膜3,敏感层薄膜3位于谐振腔11内某一个平行于上衬底1和下衬底5的平面内,分布在像元内除上金属柱9和下金属柱10以外的其他区域,敏感层薄膜3优选在谐振腔11高度的中间位置,敏感层薄膜3的材料选用红外热敏感应材料,如氧化钒、非晶硅等,敏感层薄膜3的厚度为50-500nm;当光进入谐振腔11时,反射一个来回就可以穿过敏感层薄膜3两次,从而增加了光吸收率;敏感层薄膜3除了两个对角与支撑柱14固定连接外,周围没有其它与其直接接触的材料,降低了热传导引起的热损失,有利于将入射红外信号引起的温升最大限度地转换为电信号输出。
参见图1,下衬底5的下表面固定设置有集成电路8,包括处理电路6和存储电路7,所述的集成电路8能将敏感层薄膜3所吸收的红外辐射所转化成的电信号进行放大处理及成像。
工作原理:
上衬底背面的金属层作为上反射层,其厚度较薄,为半透半反膜;下衬底上表面的金属层作为下反射层,其厚度较厚,为全反射膜;光穿透半透半反的上反射层,进入谐振腔,穿过敏感层薄膜,到达下反射层,然后向上全反射,再次经过敏感层薄膜。因此光在谐振腔中反射一个来回可穿过敏感层薄膜两次,使得穿透敏感层薄膜的次数增多,从而提高谐振腔对光的利用率及整个红外探测器的光电转换效率。
本发明的红外探测器的制备方法具体包括以下步骤:
步骤一、制备上片结构
(1)取双面抛光硅片作为上衬底1,在上衬底1的下表面上利用电子束蒸发法沉积上铬薄膜12,利用电子束蒸发法在上铬薄膜12上沉积铝金属膜,即上反射层2,上铬薄膜12能够增加硅衬底与铝金属膜粘附性,上铬薄膜12的厚度为上反射层2厚度的1/10;在上反射层2涂光刻胶后曝光、显影、湿法腐蚀、去除光刻胶,完成上反射层2及铬薄膜12的图形化,将金属柱9附近区域及相邻两个探测单元之间隔离区域的金属腐蚀掉。本实施例中,铝金属膜厚度为10nm,铬薄膜为1nm;
(2)旋涂光刻胶,将光刻胶均匀旋涂在上步骤制备的带有铝金属膜的硅衬底表面上(上反射层2上),旋涂光刻胶厚度约为3μm。随后在95℃热板上烘烤20min并随后冷却至室温。
(3)曝光,将样品在光刻机中曝光。所曝光的图形是探测单元一个对角上的两个孔(两根上金属柱9所在的位置)。
(4)显影,光刻的图形随后通过将样品在显影液中浸渍1min,随后用去离子水漂洗定影,用氮气枪吹干。
(5)然后在上步骤光刻胶图形上镀金属,孔内金属并未全部填满,作为本例的一个实例,孔内金属为1.25μm,光刻胶厚度约3μm,比金属厚度厚的多。
(6)去除光刻胶。样品浸泡在丙酮等有机溶剂内,从光刻胶孔内未填满金属的区域将光刻胶溶解。将大面积的胶去除的同时去除了胶上的金属层,最终只剩下光刻胶孔内的上金属柱9。
步骤二、制备下片结构
(1)在下衬底5的上表面利用电子束蒸发法沉积下铬薄膜13,利用电子束蒸发法在下铬薄膜13上沉积铝金属膜,即下反射层4,下铬薄膜13能够增加硅衬底与铝金属膜粘附性,下铬薄膜13的厚度为下反射层4厚度的十分之一;再在下反射层4上表面涂光刻胶、曝光、显影、后烘、湿法腐蚀、去除光刻胶,完成下反射层4及下铬薄膜13的图形化,从而将金属柱10和支撑柱14附近区域及相邻两个探测单元之间隔离区域的金属腐蚀掉;本实施例中,反射层厚度可为100nm,铬薄膜厚度为10nm。
(2)旋涂光刻胶。将光刻胶均匀旋涂在上步骤制备的带有铝金属膜的硅衬底表面上(下反射层4上),涂光刻胶厚度约为3μm。随后在95℃下干燥20min并随后冷却至室温。
(3)曝光。将所得样片在光刻机中曝光。作为本例的一个实例,曝光的图形是探测单元四个角上的四个孔(下金属柱10和支撑柱14所在的位置)。
(4)显影,将样品在显影液中浸渍1min,随后用去离子水漂洗并用氮气枪吹干。
(5)然后在上步骤所得的光刻胶图形上镀金属,光刻胶孔内金属并不全部填满金 属,作为本例的一个实例,光刻胶孔深度约3微米,孔内金属为1.25μm,即光刻胶厚度约为金属厚度厚两倍以上。
(6)去除光刻胶。将样品浸泡在丙酮等有机溶剂内,从光刻胶孔内未填满金属的区域将光刻胶溶解。去除大面积胶的同时去除了胶上的金属层,最终只剩下孔内的下金属柱10、支撑柱14。
步骤三、制备敏感层
(1)旋涂牺牲层。在上述步骤二中的第(5)步形成的下反射层4上均匀旋涂牺牲层,涂至厚度和金属柱10及支撑柱14的高度相等,然后固化;所述牺牲层的材料包括光敏型聚酰亚胺或者非光敏型聚酰亚胺(PI)、苯并环丁烯(BCB)等。然后通过光刻和刻蚀,将金属柱顶端覆盖的的牺牲层去除,形成接触孔。
(2)沉积敏感层薄膜3。通过反应溅射的方法或等离子增强化学气相沉积法将氧化钒、非晶硅等其它红外热敏感材料沉积在固化的牺牲层上,并通过光刻和刻蚀对其图形化,形成如图5形状。作为本例的一个实例,敏感层薄膜3厚度取值范围50nm到500nm。敏感层薄膜3沉积在牺牲层上表面及用来支撑敏感薄膜的支撑柱14的顶端,从而实现敏感层与支撑柱14之间的固定连接。
(3)去除牺牲层。利用氧等离子体干法刻蚀去除牺牲层,得到由两个支撑柱14和一片搭在支撑柱14上的敏感薄膜3组成的探测结构。
步骤四、键合上下片
利用倒装芯片键合机,将两个上金属柱9和两个下金属柱10对应键合在一起,同时上片结构和下片结构固定连接在一起,形成谐振腔11,谐振腔高度是工作中心波长的1/4,敏感层薄膜3在谐振腔11的中间。
以上所述仅为本发明的较佳实施例而已,并不用以限制本发明,凡在本发明的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本发明的保护范围之内。
