附图说明
为了更清楚地说明本申请实施例或现有技术中的技术方案,下面将对实施例或现有技术描述中所需要使用的附图作简单地介绍,显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅是本申请的一些实施例,对于本领域普通技术人员来讲,在不付出创造性劳动的前提下,还 可以根据这些附图获得其他的附图。在附图中:
图1至图11分别为本申请实施例提供的超声波换能器的结构示意图。
具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
参照后文的说明和附图,详细公开了本申请的特定实施方式,指明了本申请的原理可以被采用的方式。应该理解,本申请的实施方式在范围上并不因而受到限制。在所附权利要求的精神和条款的范围内,本申请的实施方式包括许多改变、修改和等同。
针对一种实施方式描述和/或示出的特征可以以相同或类似的方式在一个或更多个其它实施方式中使用,与其它实施方式中的特征相组合,或替代其它实施方式中的特征。
应该强调,术语“包括/包含”在本文使用时指特征、整件、步骤或组件的存在,但并不排除一个或更多个其它特征、整件、步骤或组件的存在或附加。
为了解决现有技术中存在的上述问题的至少之一,第一方面,本申请提供一种超声波换能器,如图1至图11所示,本申请提供一种超声波换能器包括导电层100以及设置在导电层100上的振动膜200;其中,振动膜200包括自下而上层叠设置的第一电极210、第一压电层220以及第二电极230,第一电极210和导电层100之间连接具有直流偏置的第一交流电源300,第一电极210和第二电极230之间连接第二交流电源400;导电层100与振动膜200之间形成有空腔500;在振动膜200在工作状态时,从平行于导电层100的方向观察,振动膜200与空腔500相对的部分呈曲面,或者,在振动膜200在工作状态以及不在工作状态时,从平行于导电层100的方向观察,振动膜200与空腔500相对的部分均呈曲面。
这样,振动膜200的振动通过静电力和压电力共同驱动实现,与单一驱动形式相比,静电力和压电力共同驱动的方式所引起的振动膜200的振动幅度更大,进而使得超声换能器的性能更优异。具体来讲,静电力是指带电体之间的静电相互作用力,通过在第一电极210和导电层100之间施加具有直流偏置的交变电场(DC+AC)可以改变第一电极210和导电层100之间的相互作用力,进而引起振动膜200在一定频率下振动;压电力驱动是基于压电材料的逆压电效应,通过在第一压电层220两侧的第一电极210和 第二电极230之间施加交变电场(AC),引起第一压电层220的变形,进而驱动振动膜200在一定频率下振动;实现了静电力和压电力共同驱动振动膜200振动,进而发射超声波。此外,振动膜200并非完全的平面结构,尤其是在工作状态,曲面形式的振动膜200能够使MEMS超声波换能器的性能有大幅提升。因此,本申请提出的静电力和压电力共同驱动的曲面形式超声换能器,将具有非常优异的超声波发射和接收性能。
在非工作状态,振动膜200可以为完全的平面结构也可以包括曲线部210,当振动膜200为完全的平面结构时,可以通过在振动膜200和导电层100之间施加直流电场,使振动膜200呈现弯曲状态。
在一些实施例中,如图1至图11所示,在导电层100和振动膜200之间还具有第一电介质层110,第一电介质层110起到绝缘作用。在另外一些实施例中,超声波换能器的导电层100和振动膜200之间可以不具有第一电介质层110,在这种情况下,可以通过合理设置导电层100以及振动膜200的形状和/或相对位置等实现导电层100和振动膜200之间的绝缘关系。
在一些实施例中,导电层空腔500内部可以呈真空状态,这样能实现更好的静电力驱动,同时减少了振动膜200振动时的阻尼,能够进一步提高振动膜200的振动性能。
在一些实施例中,如图2所示,导电层100远离振动膜200的一侧还可以设置有绝缘层600。其中,绝缘层600和导电层100可以合称为衬底,该种衬底是一种复合衬底,例如硅(Si)衬底,该复合衬底除包括导电层100和绝缘层600之外,还可以包括其他层,本申请对此不做限定。在超声波换能器具有绝缘层600时,可以将超声波换能器直接键合或粘接在基板上,绝缘层600能够对基板和导电层100之间起到绝缘作用。
在超声波换能器不具有绝缘层600时,若需将超声波换能器键合或粘接在基板上,则需要在超声波换能器和基板之间增加一绝缘层。在一些实施例中,如图1至图8以及图10、图11所示,导电层100靠近振动膜200的一侧具有凹部101,空腔500的至少一部分形成于振动膜200与凹部101之间。
在一些实施例中,如图1至图8所示,在导电层100靠近振动膜200的一侧具有凹部101,空腔500的至少一部分形成于振动膜200与凹部101之间时,振动膜200的曲面部201朝向凹部101弯曲。
在一些实施例中,如图11所示,振动膜200的曲面部201向远离凹部101的方向弯曲。具体来讲,该结构中用于施加静电作用力的第一电极210和导电层100之间的间距 较大,因为增加了间距,因此这种结构在超声波换能器的加工制造工艺上有一定的优势。
在一些实施例中,如图1至图11所示,第一电介质层110设置在导电层100靠近振动膜200的一侧。
在一些实施例中,如图1所示,振动膜200与导电层100上的第一电介质层110在器件工作和非工作状态下都不接触。
在一些实施例中,如图3所示,在振动膜200的曲面部201朝向凹部101弯曲时,曲面部201的顶部区域2011与第一电介质层110相接触。具体来讲,用于施加静电驱动力的第一电极210的中间区域(即曲面部201的顶部区域2011)与第一电介质层110相接触。静电驱动力的大小与第一电极210和导电层100之间的间距紧密相关,相同电荷作用下,第一电极210和导电层100之间的间距越小,静电作用力越大,能够获得更好的超声波发射性能。
在一些实施例中,如图4所示,振动膜200的曲面部201的顶部区域2011与第一电介质层110固定连接。具体的,振动膜200可以通过键合层111键合在第一电介质层110上。这样有助于形成结构更稳定可靠的具有曲面振动膜的MEMS超声波换能器,同时能够帮助MEMS超声波换能器形成多种振动模态,有助于改善MEMS超声波换能器的带宽特性。
在一些实施例中,如图5所示,第一电极210包括自下而上设置的第一子电极211、第二电介质层212以及第二子电极213,第一子电极211与导电层100之间连接具有直流偏置的第一交流电源300,第二子电极213与第二电极230之间连接第二交流电源400。具体来讲,在第一子电极211和导电层100之间施加DC+AC信号,实现静电力驱动,在第一压电层220两侧的第二子电极213和第二电极230之间施加AC信号,实现压电力驱动;这样,用于静电力和压电力驱动的两对电极之间具有第二电介质层212,用于阻隔电学影响;且压电力和静电力驱动的电极相互分开,互相不共用,这有助于简化电路设计,减少公用电极引起的信号干扰。
在一些实施例中,如图6所示,振动膜200还包括第二压电层240以及第三电极250,第二压电层240设置在第二电极230远离第一压电层220的一侧,第三电极250设置在第二压电层240远离第二电极230的一侧;第二电极230和第三电极250之间连接第三交流电源600。具体来讲,振动膜200包括第一压电层220和第二压电层240,与单 压电层驱动的MEMS超声波换能器相比,在多压电层上同时施加交变电压,能够增加压电驱动力,进一步提高振动膜200的振幅,获得性能更加优异的MEMS超声换能器。
在一些实施例中,如图7和图8所示,在振动膜200的曲面部201朝向凹部101弯曲时,凹部101为与曲面部201的曲度相同的曲面结构。具体来讲,导电层100中与振动膜200的曲面部201竖直方位相对应的区域b也可以呈曲面状态,也即凹部101与曲面部201相对设置,这样在整个曲面区域b,空腔500的深度方向的尺寸是一致的,不存在中心区域间距远小于边缘区域的情况,并且整个区域b内,空腔500的深度方向的尺寸可以相对较小,较小的间距会使相同条件下,导电层100和第一电极210之间的静电力提高,获得更好的静电驱动能力。
在一些实施例中,如图7和图8所示,在振动膜200的曲面部201朝向凹部101弯曲,凹部101为与曲面部201的曲度相同的曲面结构时,空腔500的一部分形成于导电层100在凹部101之外的平面区域a与振动膜200之间。具体来讲,在满足需求的情况下,从平行于导电层100的方向观察,平面区域a的尺寸越小越好,最好是曲面区域b的宽度的1/5甚至是1/10以下,这样使曲面区域b的占比能够尽可能的比较高,使得静电和压电同时驱动的MEMS超声波换能器获得更好的性能。
在一些实施例中,如图1所示,从平行于导电层100的方向观察,振动膜200的曲面部201的宽度c大于曲面部201的深度d的1/40。例如振动膜200的曲面部201的宽度c大于曲面部201的深度d的1/20,更进一步的,振动膜200的曲面部201的宽度c大于曲面部201的深度d的1/10。在一些实施例中,如图9所示,导电层100靠近振动膜200的一侧具有凸部103,空腔500的至少一部分形成于振动膜200与凸部103之间。
在一些实施例中,如图9所示,在导电层100靠近振动膜200的一侧具有凸部103,空腔500的至少一部分形成于振动膜200与凸部103之间时,振动膜200的曲面部201向远离凸部103的方向弯曲。曲面部201的曲度与凸部103的曲度可以相同,这样,空腔500的至少一部分在深度方向的尺寸可以是一致的,不存在中心区域间距远小于边缘区域的情况,并且在该部分,间距可以设置的相对较小,较小的间距会使相同条件下,第一电极210和导电层100之间的静电力提高,获得更好的静电驱动能力。
在一些实施例中,如图7所示,空腔500通过牺牲层工艺实现,振动膜200上设置有连通空腔500的第一释放通道202。具体来讲,牺牲层材料可通过位于振动膜200内的第一释放通道202移除,进而形成空腔500。
在一些实施例中,如图7所示,在空腔500通过牺牲层工艺实现,振动膜200上设置有连通空腔500的第一释放通道202时,振动膜200远离导电层100的一侧设置有密闭保护层700。为了使空腔500内保持真空状态,可在真空状态下,在器件表面沉积密闭保护层700,进而使空腔500内保持真空状态。
在一些实施例中,如图8和图9所示,空腔500通过牺牲层工艺实现,导电层100上设置有连通空腔500的第二释放通道102。牺牲层材料可通过位于导电层100上的第二释放通道102移除,进而形成空腔500。为了使空腔500内保持真空状态,可在真空条件下,通过键合的方式,将导电层100远离振动膜200的一侧键合到绝缘层600上;或者,如图10所示,在第二释放通道102同时贯穿导电层100和绝缘层600时,为了使空腔500内保持真空状态,可在真空条件下,通过键合的方式,将绝缘层600远离导电层100的一侧键合到基板1000上。
