Description

压电滤波器及其质量负载实现方法和含压电滤波器的装置 技术领域
本发明涉及微电子技术领域,涉及压电滤波器及其质量负载实现方法和含压电滤波器装置,特别地涉及一种实现压电滤波器质量负载的方法、压电滤波器、双工器、高频前端电路以及通信装置。
背景技术
目前,能够满足通讯终端使用的小尺寸滤波类器件主要是压电声波滤波器,构成此类声波滤波器的谐振器主要包括:FBAR(Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator,薄膜体声波谐振器),SMR(Solidly Mounted Resonator,固态装配谐振器)和SAW(Surface Acoustic Wave,表面声波谐振器)。其中基于体声波原理FBAR和SMR制造的滤波器(统称为BAW,体声波谐振器),相比基于表面声波原理SAW制造的滤波器,具有更低的插入损耗,更快的滚降特性等优势。
由于构成声波谐振器的压电材料和金属材料,都具有负温度系数的特点,即当温度增加时,谐振器的谐振频率均会以一定比例向低频方向移动(温度漂移)。一般情况下,SAW的温度系数为-35ppm/℃~-50ppm/℃,BAW的温度系数为-25ppm/℃~-30ppm/℃。虽然BAW相比SAW具有明显的温度漂移方面的性能优势,但是在一些特殊的应用场景下,这样的温度系数,仍然会对应用了滤波器的射频收发系统的性能产生不利影响,例如一个滤波器定义了从通带边缘到带外抑制的频率可变范围,那么温度系数的存在,就使得在考虑了温度漂移频率之后,这个可变范围变小,从而大大增加了滤波器的设计难度。
为了解决滤波器普遍存在的温度漂移问题,一个常见的解决方法是,在谐振器中加入可以实现温度补偿效果的材料。对于声波谐振器,这种温度补偿材料常常被选择为二氧化硅,主要是因为二氧化硅具有与大多数材料正好相反的正温度系数,并且可以通过一般的工艺制程 制作,也同时具备低廉的价格,适合产品大批量生产的应用。这类加了温度补偿的材料的谐振器,也被称为TCF谐振器,是温度补偿滤波器的组成单元。
但是,在谐振器引入温度补偿层不是没有代价的,它使谐振器的特性变差,主要体现在谐振器损耗的增大,以及机电耦合系数的变小。谐振器的损耗增大,滤波器的插入损耗会随之增加,从而增大射频链路中的损耗,恶化射频前端的收发性能。机电耦合系数变小,谐振器的串联谐振频率和并联谐振频率之间的间距减小,滤波器的滚降特性有可能改善,但同时滤波器的带宽也会变窄,大多数通信系统中,滤波器的带宽是根据系统要求提出的,带宽并不能无限制的缩窄。
因此,如何在有一定带宽要求的情况下,实现BAW滤波器件的高滚降要求和温度特性,成为滤波器设计工程师一个亟待解决的问题。

具体实施方式
下面详细描述本发明的实施例,所述实施例的示例在附图中示出,其中自始至终相同或类似的标号表示相同或类似的元件或具有相同或类似功能的元件。下面通过参考附图描述的实施例是示例性的,旨在用于解释本发明,而不能理解为对本发明的限制。
为使本领域技术人员更好地了解本发明的内容,发明人先对温补谐振器的基础结构和性能做简要介绍。
图1A是压电声波谐振器的电学符号,图1B是其等效电学模型图,在不考虑损耗项的情况下,电学模型简化为L m、C m和C 0组成的谐振电路。根据谐振条件可知,该谐振电路存在两个谐振频点:一个是谐振电路阻抗值达到最小值时的f s,将f s定义为该谐振器的串联谐振频点;另一个是当谐振电路阻抗值达到最大值时的f p,将f p定义为该谐振器 的并联谐振频点。其中,
Figure PCTCN2020141269-appb-000001
并且,f s比f p要小。同时,定义了谐振器的机电耦合系数Kt 2 eff(以下简记为Kt 2),它可以用f s和f p来表示:
Figure PCTCN2020141269-appb-000002
图2示出了谐振器阻抗与f s和f p之间的关系。在某一特定的频率下,有效机电耦合系数越大,则f s和f p的频率差越大,即两个谐振频点离得越远。同时,将谐振器在f s处的阻抗幅值定义为R s,它是谐振器阻抗曲线中的极小值;将谐振器在f p处的阻抗幅值定义为R p,它是谐振器阻抗曲线中的极大值。R s和R p是描述谐振损耗特性的重要参数,当R s越小,R p越大时,谐振器的损耗越小,Q值越高,此时滤波器的插入损耗特性也更好。
图3是传统普通谐振器示意图。如图3所示,谐振器制作在衬底104之上,底电极102和顶电极101为金属电极,厚度通常为几百纳米。压电材料薄膜103通常使用氧化锌或氮化铝材料,厚度为几百纳米至几微米。为了使得在其中产生的声波能够实现谐振,需要使得声波在顶底电极表面产生反射。顶电极101之上是能够形成声波反射的空气,为了使得声波在底电极下表面也产生反射,在底电极102下制作有空气腔100。当交变电压施加在顶电极101和底电极102上时,激发压电材料薄膜103产生压电效应产生机械声波。声波在顶底电极之间传播并反射,形成驻波谐振,进而在电学响应上形成谐振。由于使用空腔形成反射,这种谐振器称作空腔反射式体声波谐振器。
图4是温补谐振器示意图。该温补谐振器可以包括:顶电极201、底电极202、压电层203、衬底204、位于底电极202内部的温度补偿层205以及空气腔200,可以视为是在图3的基础上添加了温度补偿层的FBAR谐振器。温度补偿层205的材料一般为二氧化硅,并且其图形小于或等于底电极图形,也就是说补偿层和底电极看起来仿佛夹心 饼干或者三明治。优选地,温度补偿层205被完全包裹于底电极材料中,这样制作的好处是,可以有效的保护它不受其它工艺制作过程的破坏。另外,因为温度补偿层上面和下面的电极材料在边缘处连接在一起,避免了形成由三者组成的寄生电容,从而大幅度恶化谐振器的Kt 2和损耗特性。可选地,温度补偿层的版图面积与底电极顶层或底电极底层的版图面积之比为0.5~1。
图5A和图5B是谐振器中加温度补偿层前后的谐振器阻抗曲线对比。添加了温度补偿层后,谐振器的Kt 2由原来的6.5%减少为3.4%,R s由原来的0.66欧姆增大到1.37欧姆,而Rp则由原来的2592欧姆减小到1314欧姆,同时谐振器的温度系数由原来的-25ppm/℃~-30ppm/℃变为约0ppm/℃左右。可以看到,添加了温度补偿层,Kt 2会变为原来的大约一半,R s会增大到大约原来的2倍,而R p则减少到原来的大约一半,谐振器的损耗增加也一定程度上导致了Q值的降低。
本发明第一方面提出一种实现压电滤波器的质量负载的方法,压电滤波器包括串联支路和并联支路,串联支路包括三个以上串联在压电滤波器的输出输出端之间的体声波谐振器,相邻谐振器的连接点与接地端之间设置有并联电路,在该方法中,将谐振器的温度补偿层作为质量负载,并且:所有串联谐振器均为相同的谐振器,各串联谐振器具有或不具有温度补偿层;所有并联谐振器均具有温度补偿层并且厚度大于串联谐振器的温度补偿层。
需要说明的是,串联谐振器为相同的普通谐振器的情形,具有结构简单,易于加工的优点。该实施例中,串联谐振器中的温度补偿层厚度为零,因此串并联谐振器的温度补偿层厚度差等于并联谐振器中的温度补偿层厚度。还需要说明的是,串联谐振器为相同的温补谐振器,并且串联谐振器的温度补偿层厚度小于并联谐振器的温度补偿层厚度的情形,串联谐振器存在温度补偿层厚度差异,以保证实现串并联频率差,也就是实现负载效应。
进一步地,串联谐振器的温度系数为零。这意味着温度补偿层产生的正温漂效应可以正好抵消所有其它层的负温漂效应,从而使得并 联谐振器成为具有温度系数等于0ppm/℃的温补谐振器。该实施例中,温度系数为零意味着温度补偿层的温漂效应与其他层的温漂效应恰好抵消,这样压电滤波器在不同环境温度下具有稳定的电学性能。
进一步地,并联谐振器的温度补偿层的厚度等同于质量负载效应,使得添加温度补偿层之后的并联谐振器的并联谐振频率与串联谐振器的串联谐振频率相等。意味着温度补偿层的厚度正好等同于质量负载效应,使得添加温度补偿层之后的并联谐振器的并联谐振频率,与未添加温度补偿层的串联谐振器的串联谐振频率差不多相等,从而形成滤波器的特性曲线。
本发明实施例的实现压电滤波器的质量负载的方法,无论是相比串并联谐振器全部设置普通FBAR谐振器的情形,还是相比串并联谐振器全部设置为温补谐振器的情形,均在性能上具有明显优势,兼顾了左侧滚降,以及通带插入损耗性能的较优选择。
本发明第二方面提出一种压电滤波器,包括串联支路和并联支路,串联支路包括三个以上串联在压电滤波器的输出端之间的体声波谐振器,相邻谐振器的连接点与接地端之间设置有并联电路,其特征在于,所有串联谐振器均为相同的谐振器,各串联谐振器具有或不具有温度补偿层;所有并联谐振器均具有温度补偿层并且厚度大于串联谐振器的温度补偿层。
进一步地,串联谐振器的温度系数为零。
进一步地,并联谐振器的温度补偿层的厚度等同于质量负载效应,使得添加温度补偿层之后的并联谐振器的并联谐振频率与串联谐振器的串联谐振频率相等。
本发明实施例的压电滤波器,无论是相比全部为普通FBAR谐振器的滤波器,还是全部为温补谐振器的滤波器,均在性能上具有明显优势,兼顾了左侧滚降,以及通带插入损耗性能的较优选择。
下面列举本发明实施例的压电滤波器与两种其他的压电滤波器做性能对比。
本发明实施例的压电滤波器100,其电路图如图6所示,包括5个串联谐振器和4个并联谐振器。其中所有并联谐振器均为如图4的温补谐振器,所有串联谐振器均为如图3的普通FBAR谐振器。该滤波器的通带频率范围为2565MHz~2595MHz,通带带宽为30MHz,并且要求在2540MHz处有大于45dB的带外抑制。
提供第一对比例——压电滤波器001,其电路图如图7所示,包括5个串联普通谐振器和4个并联普通谐振器。该压电滤波器001由串联谐振器与并联谐振器组成类似于梯型的级联结构,并在其中并联谐振器上添加质量负载层,材料与制作BAW器件的电极材料相同,使其并联谐振频率与串联谐振器的谐振频率基本相同,从而形成滤波器的曲线特性。
图8A是压电滤波器001的串并联谐振器阻抗-频率关系示意图,图8B是压电滤波器100的串并联谐振器阻抗-频率关系示意图。两图对比可知,滤波器要求在2540MHz处有大于45dB的带外抑制,实施例压电滤波器100和第一对比例压电滤波器001中的并联谐振器的串联谐振频率,均设置在2530MHz附近,但由于实施例中的并联谐振器为Kt2相对较小的温补谐振器,其fs与fp之间的距离更小,因此实施例中的串联谐振器的串联谐振频率相比第一对比例会明显偏低,这是为了保证滤波器在通带范围内的阻抗匹配特性。
图9A是压电滤波器100(实线)与压电滤波器001(虚线)的幅频曲线对比示意图,图9B是图9A的局部放大图。由于压电滤波器001采用的均是普通FBAR谐振器,其Kt2约为6.5%,滤波器的带宽较宽。为保证2540MHz处的带外抑制,滤波器在2565MHz的插入损耗约为3.2dB,同时因为通带较宽,通带右侧的插入损耗可以达到将近1.0dB,30MHz通带范围内的波动值较大。而实施例的并联谐振器采用温补谐振器,其Kt2约为3.4%,从阻抗极小值到阻抗极大值过渡的频率范围会更小,因此可以实现更好的左侧滚降特性。同时,并联谐振器的零温漂特性,也使得滤波器左侧滚降沿随着温度的变化改变很小,这进一步增加了滤波器滚降的余量。
图10A是压电滤波器001在低温、常温、高温下的三温曲线示意 图,图10B是图10A的局部放大图。其中黑色实线为常温下的曲线,因为所采用的所有谐振器具有-25ppm/℃~-30ppm/℃的温度系数,因此与常温曲线相比,滤波器在低温下幅频曲线向高频方向移动,同时插入损耗变好,而高温下幅频曲线向低频方向移动,同时插入损耗变差。
图11A是压电滤波器100在低温、常温、高温下的三温曲线示意图,图11B是图11A的局部放大图。其中黑色实线为常温下的曲线,因为串联谐振器为普通谐振器,具有-25ppm/℃~-30ppm/℃的温度系数,而并联谐振器为温补谐振器,具有0ppm/℃的温度系数,因此与常温曲线相比,滤波器在低温下幅频曲线的右边沿向高频方向移动,同时插入损耗变好,而高温下幅频曲线的右边沿向低频方向移动,同时插入损耗变差。滤波器的右边沿被温补谐振器的零温漂特性锚定,从面频率位置改变很小,从而改善了满眼波器相应位置的滚降特性。
由上文的压电滤波器100与压电滤波器001的对比可知,只在并联谐振器上添加温度补偿层的滤波器,相比没有温度补偿层的普通压电滤波器,具有以下优点:并联谐振器采用零温漂、小Kt 2的温补谐振器,可以有效改善滤波器左侧的滚降特性。
提供第二对比例——压电滤波器002,其电路图如图12所示,包括5个串联温补谐振器和4个并联温补谐振器。
图13A是压电滤波器002的串并联谐振器阻抗-频率关系示意图,图13B是压电滤波器100的串并联谐振器阻抗-频率关系示意图,可以看出压电滤波器002具有Kt 2小,损耗大,零温漂的特点。
图14A是压电滤波器100(实线)与压电滤波器002(虚线)的幅频曲线对比,图14B是图14A的局部放大图。由于压电滤波器002采用的均是温补谐振器,其Kt 2约为3.4%,并且损耗较大,因此滤波器的带宽较窄,在2565MHz的插入损耗约为3.6dB,在2595MHz的插入损耗约为2.6dB,通带内的总体带内插入损耗相比实施例,差了约0.35dB。虽然压电滤波器002因为全部采用温补谐振器,其左右两侧滚降沿的温度漂移特性均较好,但是其带宽和插入损耗方面的损失较大,不能满足滤波器的应用需求。
由上文的压电滤波器100与压电滤波器002的对比可知,相比串、 并联谐振器全部采用温补谐振器制作的压电滤波器,本发明实施例的压电滤波器具有以下优点:(1)采用温度补偿层作为质量负载,省去了另外制作质量负载的工艺步骤;(2)串联谐振器采用普通谐振器而非温补谐振器,谐振器损耗相对较好,从而改善了滤波器的插入损耗特性;(3)串联谐振器采用普通谐振器而非温补谐振器,适当减少了温补谐振器Kt 2变小对滤波器带宽的缩减作用。
图15是根据本发明实施方式的一种滤波器的结构的示意图。如图15中所示的FBAR滤波器300,其电路图与图11相同,串联和并联均为温补谐振器。图中示出了做在衬底上的空腔,下电极,压电层,上电极,以及被包裹在下电极,位于谐振区内的温补层。需要说明的是,为了保护谐振器不受环境影响而发生氧化,通常在上电极上方,还会制作一层钝化层,它的材料可以是性能相对稳定的非金属材料,如二氧化硅,甚至也可以与压电层采用相同的材料,如氮化铝。图15中左侧的谐振器为串联谐振器,右侧的谐振器为并联谐振器,其它滤波器中的谐振器并未示出。串联谐振器的温补层厚度为t1,并联谐振器的温补层厚度为t2,t1和t2满足关系,t2>t1,二者的厚度差,即形成了并联谐振器与串联谐振的频差,即滤波器设计所需要的质量负载效应。串联谐振器与并联谐振器的其它层厚度均相同,为了更好的表现出各层厚度关系,此图相比前面谐振器,更详细的表现出了各层因为温补层厚度不同,在薄膜沉积制作过程中形成的边界斜角。在此实施例中,由于串联和并联谐振器的温补层厚度不同,而其它层相同,因此两种谐振器的温度系数必定不同。在设计过程中,可以根据滤波器电性能的特点,选择合适的层叠,使得相应位置的温度系数更接近于0ppm/℃。例如:对于滤波器通带左侧有滚降要求的,可以设计各层厚度,使得并联谐振器的温度系数为0ppm/℃左右,而串联谐振器的温度系数可以相比0ppm/℃相差远一些,如-10ppm。这样形成的滤波器,可以得到更好的左侧滚降,同时右侧滚降相比没有温补谐振器的滤波器,也会有一定的提升。
综上,本发明实施例的压电滤波器,无论是相比全部为普通FBAR谐振器的滤波器,还是全部为温补谐振器的滤波器,均在性能上具有 明显优势,兼顾了左侧滚降,以及通带插入损耗性能的较优选择。
上述具体实施方式,并不构成对本发明保护范围的限制。本领域技术人员应该明白的是,取决于设计要求和其他因素,可以发生各种各样的修改、组合、子组合和替代。任何在本发明的精神和原则之内所作的修改、等同替换和改进等,均应包含在本发明保护范围之内。
