- a Lamb wave is a plate wave in which an elastic wave propagates in the X direction as shown in FIG. 6A. Therefore, in the conventional elastic wave device, since the elastic wave propagates in the X direction, two reflectors are arranged on both sides of the IDT electrode to obtain a desired resonance characteristic. Therefore, in the conventional elastic wave device, the propagation loss of the elastic wave occurs, so that the Q value decreases when the size is reduced, that is, when the logarithm of the electrode fingers is reduced.

Description
以下、実施形態1に係る弾性波装置1について、図1~5を参照して説明する。
実施形態1に係る弾性波装置1は、図1に示すように、圧電体層4と、第1電極51及び第2電極52と、を備える。第1電極51及び第2電極52は、図2に示すように、圧電体層4の厚さ方向D1(以下、第1方向D1ともいう)に交差する方向D2(以下、第2方向D2ともいう)において対向している。弾性波装置1は、厚みすべり1次モードのバルク波を利用する弾性波装置である。第2方向D2は、圧電体層4の分極方向PZ1に直交する。厚みすべり1次モードのバルク波は、圧電体層4の厚みすべり振動により圧電体層4の厚さ方向D1を伝搬方向とするバルク波であって、圧電体層4の厚さ方向D1において節の数が1となるバルク波である。厚みすべり振動は、第1電極51及び第2電極52によって励振される。厚みすべり振動は、圧電体層4において、厚さ方向D1からの平面視で第1電極51と第2電極52との間の規定領域45に励振される。弾性波装置1では、第2方向D2が圧電体層4の分極方向PZ1に直交していれば、厚みすべり1次モードのバルク波の電気機械結合係数(以下、結合係数ともいう)が大きい。ここにおいて、「直交」とは、厳密に直交する場合のみに限定されず、略直交(第2方向D2と分極方向PZ1とのなす角度が例えば90°±10°)でもよい。
次に、弾性波装置1の各構成要素について、図面を参照して説明する。
シリコン基板2は、図2に示すように、圧電体層4を支持している。実施形態1に係る弾性波装置1では、シリコン基板2は、酸化ケイ素膜7を介して、圧電体層4と複数の第1電極51及び複数の第2電極52とを支持している。
酸化ケイ素膜7は、シリコン基板2の第1主面21と圧電体層4との間に設けられている。実施形態1に係る弾性波装置1では、酸化ケイ素膜7は、圧電体層4の厚さ方向D1においてシリコン基板2の第1主面21の全域に重なっている。実施形態1に係る弾性波装置1では、第1主面21の全域が粗面211なので、酸化ケイ素膜7は、圧電体層4の厚さ方向D1からの平面視でシリコン基板2の粗面211に重なっている。実施形態1に係る弾性波装置1では、シリコン基板2と圧電体層4とが酸化ケイ素膜7を介して接合されている。

トラップ領域10は、圧電体層4の第2主面42側に設けられている。トラップ領域10は、シリコン基板2に設けられている。トラップ領域10は、シリコン基板2の第1主面21に沿った電荷の移動を抑制する。ここにおいて、実施形態1に係る弾性波装置1では、トラップ領域10は、第1配線部61と第2配線部62との電位差があるときに、シリコン基板2の第1主面21と酸化ケイ素膜7との界面付近の電荷がシリコン基板2の第1主面21に沿って第1配線部61と第2配線部62との間を移動することを抑制する。
弾性波装置1の製造方法は、例えば、互いに対向する第1主面及び第2主面を有する単結晶シリコン基板を準備した後、第1工程~第6工程を行う。第1工程では、単結晶シリコン基板の第1主面を粗面化することによって表面領域2Sとバルク領域2Bとを有するシリコン基板2を形成する。第2工程では、シリコン基板2の第1主面21上に酸化ケイ素膜7を形成する。第3工程では、圧電体層4の元になる圧電体基板とシリコン基板2とを酸化ケイ素膜7を介して接合する。第4工程では、圧電体基板を薄くすることにより圧電体基板の一部からなる圧電体層4を形成する。第5工程では、圧電体層4の第1主面41上に複数の第1電極51、複数の第2電極52、第1配線部61、第2配線部62、第1端子T1及び第2端子T2を形成する。第6工程では、シリコン基板2の第2主面22から空洞26を形成する。上述の第5工程では、フォトリソグラフィ技術、エッチング技術、薄膜形成技術等を利用して複数の第1電極51、複数の第2電極52、第1配線部61、第2配線部62、第1端子T1及び第2端子T2を形成する。また、上述の第6工程では、フォトリソグラフィ技術及びエッチング技術等を利用して、シリコン基板2における空洞26の形成予定領域をエッチングする。第6工程では、酸化ケイ素膜7をエッチングストッパ層としてシリコン基板2のエッチングを行い、その後、酸化ケイ素膜7の不要部分をエッチング除去することによって、圧電体層4の第2主面42の一部を露出させる。また、単結晶シリコン基板を準備する際には、単結晶シリコンウェハを準備し、第3工程では圧電体基板として圧電体ウェハを用いる。弾性波装置1の製造方法では、複数の弾性波装置1を含むウェハをダイシングすることで、複数個の弾性波装置1(チップ)を得る。
実施形態1に係る弾性波装置1は、厚みすべり1次モードのバルク波を利用する弾性波装置である。上述のように、厚みすべり1次モードのバルク波は、圧電体層4の厚みすべり振動により圧電体層4の厚さ方向D1を伝搬方向とするバルク波であって、圧電体層4の厚さ方向D1において節の数が1となるバルク波である。厚みすべり振動は、第1電極51及び第2電極52によって励振される。厚みすべり振動は、圧電体層4において、厚さ方向D1からの平面視で隣り合う第1電極51と第2電極52との間の規定領域45に励振される。厚みすべり振動は、例えば、FEM(Finite Element Method)によって確認できる。より詳細には、厚みすべり振動は、例えば、圧電体層4のパラメータ(材料、オイラー角及び厚さ等)、第1電極51及び第2電極52のパラメータ(材料、厚さ、第1電極51と第2電極52との中心線間距離等)等を用いて、FEMにより変位分布を解析し、ひずみを解析することにより、確認することができる。圧電体層4のオイラー角は、分析により求めることができる。
実施形態1に係る弾性波装置1は、圧電体層4と、第1電極51及び第2電極52と、を備える。第1電極51及び第2電極52は、圧電体層4の厚さ方向D1に交差する方向D2において対向している。弾性波装置1は、厚みすべり1次モードのバルク波を利用する。弾性波装置1は、シリコン基板2を更に備える。シリコン基板2は、互いに対向する第1主面21及び第2主面22を有する。圧電体層4の材料が、リチウムニオベイト又はリチウムタンタレートである。圧電体層4は、シリコン基板2の第1主面21上に設けられている。弾性波装置1は、シリコン基板2に設けられているトラップ領域10を更に有する。
弾性波装置1の他の構成例では、例えば、図13に示すように、シリコン基板2の圧電体層4とは反対側に、つまり、シリコン基板2の第2主面22に、圧電体層4の厚さ方向D1からの平面視で圧電体層4と重なるように他の基板20が積層されていてもよい。上記他の基板20の材料としては例えばシリコンが挙げられる。要するに、弾性波装置1では、シリコン基板2である第1シリコン基板2の第2主面22に、上記他の基板20からなる第2シリコン基板が接合されていてもよい。なお、シリコン基板2と他の基板20とは積層されている場合に限らず、1枚の基板から一体的に形成されていてもよい。
