Specific implementation mode
In order to make the purpose , technical scheme and advantage of the present invention be clearer, with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, right The present invention is further elaborated.It should be appreciated that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention, and It is not used in the restriction present invention.As long as in addition, technical characteristic involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below It does not constitute a conflict with each other and can be combined with each other.
Fig. 1 is a kind of preparation process schematic diagram of flexible sensor constructed by preferred embodiment according to the invention, such as Shown in Fig. 1, the preparation of the sensor usually requires to include the following steps:
Step 1:Prepare one piece of rigid transparent substrate 10, and deposition laser reactive layer 20 on the transparent substrate.The transparent base Plate needs have high-permeability to laser.As quartz glass or sapphire substrate can be used.The laser reactive layer of deposition is The key for forming cavity structure, needs to meet following condition:1, the conversion zone can acutely absorb laser, and it is logical to absorb depth Often need to be less than 100 nanometers.It acutely heats up after absorbing the laser reactive layer in depth by the irradiation of laser, it may occur that ablation Equal decomposition reactions.The reaction can make laser reactive layer that interfacial separation occur with transparent substrate, and generate bulk gas product.2, should Conversion zone cannot be fragile material, while also need have certain flexibility and ductility, should to meet the jack-up of the gas after ablation When conversion zone forms cavity structure, which will not occur fracture and damage easily.(such as polyimides gathers number of polymers Methyl methacrylate or various photosensitivity Other substrate materials) be the laser reactive layer ideal chose, utilize ultraviolet laser Ablation aggregation can occur interfacial separation and generate bulk gas product.Preferably, polyimides may be used as laser Conversion zone.The material is widely adopted in electronic manufacture as flexible insulating substrate due to its outstanding machinery, electric property. Polyimides can be detached by the excimer laser ablation of 308nm from rigid substrates, and generate bulk gas product, and such as two The various gases such as carbonoxide, carbon monoxide.The technique has been widely suitable for laser lift-off technique and has been used to prepare Flexible Displays system In making.The polymer materials such as polyimides can be deposited on by modes such as rotary coatings on transparent rigid substrate, and thickness is logical Often control then carries out high-temperature process, makes polyimide material imidization, obtain good machine at a few micrometers to some tens of pm Tool, electric property.
Step 2:In laser reactive layer disposed thereon layer of transparent flexible base board 11, the substrate material as flexible sensor Material.The transparent material needs have high-penetration to laser, such as dimethyl silicone polymer (PDMS), polyethylene terephthalate Ester (PET), platinum catalysis silicon rubber (Ecoflex) etc..The flexible transparent substrate can apply film preparation, or profit by rotary coating The liquid flexible transparent material layer that thickness is uniform, highly controllable is prepared above laser reactive layer with the methods of die casting, and Cured to obtain.The transparent material needs to form good interfacial contact with laser reactive layer, avoids hole, empty production It is raw.The thickness of the transparent material layer is typically much deeper than laser reactive layer, and thickness can be controlled in hundreds of microns to several millimeters.Cause This flexible base board determines the degree of deformability of final flexible sensor.In general, substrate is thinner, degree of deformability is got over It is good.
Step 3:Rigid substrates are detached using laser lift-off, obtain the bilayer of flexible transparent substrate and laser reactive layer Structure.Laser penetration transparent rigid substrate 10, is absorbed by laser reactive layer 20, and interface reverse side occurs, leads to interfacial separation.Laser Stripping technology is widely used at present in Flexible Displays manufacture, for detaching flexible display and rigid glass substrate, technique Very ripe, this will not be repeated here.It should be noted that laser reactive generally can not be deposited directly in flexible transparent substrate Layer, and need to obtain the double-layer structure using laser lift-off.The reason is that, in general, laser reactive layer needs high temperature Curing process, general flexible transparent substrate are difficult to bear.Such as, polyimides needs long-time high temperature (200-300 degree) ability It realizes imidization, obtains good mechanically and electrically performance, general transparent flexible substrate for a long time send out at such a temperature by exposure Solution estranged.If laser absorption layer can be deposited directly to flexible transparent substrate or sensor is not necessarily to flexibility, step 2 can be omitted With step 3.
Step 4:In laser reactive layer disposed thereon sensor function layer 30.The functional layer is to realize sensor function It is crucial.The signal generated using functional layer material deformation realizes the measurement to related physical quantity.The functional layer can be selected Piezoelectric material, such as Kynoar (PVDF) material and its derivative, piezoelectric high polymer nylon.Piezoelectric material functional layer is becoming When shape, can builtin voltage changes in distribution be led to due to piezoelectric effect, by may be implemented the measurement of voltage to its deformation extent Sensing and measurement.For capacitance sensor, laser reactive layer collectively constitutes functional layer with cavity, which can be omitted, work( When ergosphere deforms, interelectrode capacitance changes, and progress can be deformed to it by the variation of capacitance between measuring electrode Sensing and measurement.The thickness of functional layer be much smaller than laser reactive layer, be normally controlled in 1 micron hereinafter, functional layer thickness effect Cavity heaves degree, avoids too thick leading to sensitivity decrease.Rotary coating, the techniques such as magnetron sputtering can be utilized to be sunk Product, obtains the film of high quality as functional layer structure.
Step 5:Side's deposition upper electrode layer 40 on a functional, using lead connection electrode, the other end accesses measuring apparatus Realize the measurement to signal specific.The electrode can be deposited by magnetron sputtering or vacuum evaporation mode, can select metal material Material, such as gold, copper.Electrode layer usually requires to be patterned according to the design and arrangement of sensor.Patterned method can be with By deposition when above covering hollow out mask plate realize.The thickness of the electrode layer deposited in the way of magnetron sputtering or vacuum evaporation Degree is usually 100 nanometers or less.
Step 6:Flexible transparent substrate 11 is penetrated using laser 60, is irradiated in the laser reactive bed boundary 50 of specific region. Laser is irradiated specific region with certain projectile energy, irradiation frequency.The projectile energy of laser, can be with irradiation frequency It is controlled by the power and pulse frequency that adjust laser.It realizes and specific region is irradiated, it can be in transparent flexible substrate Mask plate 62 is added in incident side, and mask plate can carry out mechanical processing mode by the material sheet to extinction or glitter flakes Obtain.For laser in scanning, mask plate entity part can absorb or reflection laser, the laser reactive layer of mask plate corresponding region Interface 51 is not affected by irradiation.Laser can pass through the hollow-out part of mask plate, irradiate the laser reactive bed boundary 50 of corresponding region.
Step 7:Laser reactive layer is decomposed reaction under the irradiation of laser, and laser reactive bed boundary detaches.Swash Light reaction bed boundary generates a large amount of laser reactive layer gaseous products when decomposing.It is still closed due to not irradiating interface 51, gas It can not be discharged, then form closed structure.When gas flow gradually increases, the internal gas pressure in closed area gradually rises Height, and topmost thin film is jacked up upwards.Ultimately form the cavity structure 70 with certain altitude.The shape of cavity structure 70 is by laser The shape of irradiation area determines.Since the thickness of functional layer 30 and electrode layer 40 is much smaller than laser reactive layer 20,30 He of functional layer The rigidity of electrode layer 20 can be ignored relative to laser reactive layer 20.The height and internal gas pressure of cavity structure 70, by swashing The rigidity of light reaction layer 20 determines.The Regulation Mechanism of cavity inside air pressure and height parameter is described in detail below.
Step 8:If mentioned sensor is parallel plate capacitor sensor, need heavy in the transparent flexible substrate other side Product lower electrode layer 41 corresponding with upper electrode layer, to make upper/lower electrode form two electrodes of parallel plate capacitor.If preparing Sensor is planar capacitance sensor or piezoelectric transducer, and the step is negligible.Specific deposition method and deposition top electrode 40 Method is similar.
The sensor prepared in the way of this kind can delicately perceive the variation of ambient pressure.It is passed if parallel plate capacitor Sensor then has:
ε in formula0For permittivity of vacuum, εl、εairThe respectively dielectric constant of laser reactive layer and empty intracavity gas, dl、 dairThe respectively thickness of laser reactive layer and cavity layer.
Sensor cavities internal gas pressure, which is used as, refers to pressure, and under the action of ambient pressure, cavity film becomes Shape, dlIt is almost unchanged in deformation process, dairReduce, the capacitance between two-plate increases therewith.If plane capacitance pressure sensing The deformation of device, cavity film makes two interelectrode dielectric fields change, to the variation of plane capacitance.If piezoelectric sensing Device, piezoelectricity functional layer film deform and generate electric signal.By obtaining the deformation feelings of air cavity outer wall to the measurement of electric signal Condition, and then realize perception and measurement to extraneous pressure change.
As shown in Fig. 2, for the operation principle schematic diagram of sensor according to the present invention.Schematic diagram chooses one typically Sensor unit illustrates.The sensor unit include transparent flexible substrate 11, cavity 70, laser reactive layer 20, functional layer 30, Upper electrode 43, non-cavity area upper electrode 42, lower electrode 41 right over cavity.When in stable external environment, The sensor unit internal gas pressure, wraps up the tension of the outer membrane of air cavity, is balanced with ambient pressure, and sensor air cavity is high Degree stabilizes to H1.When there are ambient pressure or ambient pressure change, above-mentioned equilibrium state is broken, outside sensor cavities structure Wall film can deform.Air cavity internal pressure can change to reach new balance.If temperature remains unchanged, according to ideal The volume of the equation of gas state, air cavity internal gas can change, and since the shape of air cavity is fixed, what is finally changed is The height of air cavity.So, ambient pressure is received right over sensor unit such as figure, cavity is compressed, and internal volume is reduced, cavity Height change is H2, and air pressure inside is increased to balance impressed pressure.The variation of the height of sensor unit internal cavities makes insertion The functional layer structure of air cavity outer wall deforms, to realize the detection deformed to air cavity using detection functional layer deformation, into And realize the perception and measurement to ambient pressure.
There are many operating modes for this kind of sensor.It include mainly following three kinds:1, plane capacitance sensor.Laser reactive Layer is with cavity collectively as functional layer.Plane electricity is constituted right over cavity between upper electrode 43 and non-cavity area upper electrode 42 Container, under extraneous gas pressure, air cavity outer wall film deforms, and dielectric field changes in cavity, plane capacitance also with Change, and then ambient pressure can be perceived.Other than sensitive to pressure change, planar capacitance sensor is in model Also certain dielectric field can be formed, the detection for structural damages such as model surface or underbead cracks.2, parallel plate capacitor formula passes Sensor.Laser reactive layer is with cavity collectively as functional layer.It is constituted between upper electrode 43 and lower electrode 41 right over cavity Plane-parallel capacitor.The effect of ambient pressure causes parallel plate capacitor to change, to realize so that deforming for film The measurement of pressure.3, piezoelectric transducer:When air cavity stereomutation, air cavity outer wall deforms, if functional layer is piezoelectric material, When piezoelectric membrane deforms, due to the voltage right over piezoelectric effect cavity between upper electrode 43 and non-cavity area upper electrode 42 It changes, it can be by obtaining the deformation of air cavity outer wall to the measurement of electric signal, and then realize to extraneous pressure change Perception and measurement.Due to capacitance sensor depend on functional layer itself deformability, therefore apply in general to static pressure or The measurement of low frequency, and piezoelectric pressure indicator is more sensitive to vibration signal, is suitable for the measurement of high frequency or fluctuation pressure. If two kinds of sensors are combined, the measurement range of pressure can be expanded.Meanwhile it can also be achieved flight in conjunction with planar capacitance sensor The monitoring structural health conditions of device.
As shown in figure 3, regulating and controlling the sensitivity of sensor according to the present invention and the original of range to change technological parameter Rationality schematic diagram.The sensitivity of the sensor of this kind construction and range are by initial pressure inside air cavity, air cavity outer wall rigidity, air cavity Elemental height determines.Air cavity outer wall rigidity is smaller, and air cavity air pressure inside is lower, and the volume change under extraneous pressure change is got over Significantly, to which outer wall deformation is bigger, the signal measured is stronger, to which sensor has higher measurement sensitivity.Air cavity is initial Height is bigger, and the deformable amplitude of outer wall is bigger, and the range of appreciable ambient pressure is bigger, to which sensor has bigger Range.Above-mentioned initial pressure, air cavity outer wall rigidity, gas referring to sensor measurement sensitivity and inside the relevant air cavity of range Three parameters of chamber elemental height can flexibly be regulated and controled during preparing sensor by changing technological parameter.Tool The regulation and control method of body is change laser irradiation parameters appropriate and change air cavity outer wall thickness.Utilize the laser irradiation of certain parameter Behind interface, interfacial separation, boundary material is decomposed, and generates gaseous product.Gas confinement cannot exclude in closed structure, with The increase of gas generation, internal pressure gradually rises, and gas jacks up cavity outer wall 44, forms the cavity knot with certain altitude Structure.When gas gross is stablized, influence final cavity height is the bending stiffness (deformation rigidity) of cavity outer wall 44.Outside cavity The bending stiffness of wall 44 is bigger, and the air pressure that gas jacks up needs upwards is bigger, and the volume of gas is smaller, and cavity height is lower.Such as Figure, when air cavity outer wall is thicker, with the 61 irradiation portion interface region of laser compared with low energy, lower frequency.Low frequency low energy swashs The boundary material of light ablation is limited, and it is limited to generate gas flow.Limited gas is difficult to jack up the larger thicker gas of deformation rigidity Cavity outer wall, finally obtained air cavity height is relatively low, and air pressure inside is relatively low.As schemed, if in the case where not changing air cavity outer wall, Using energy higher, the higher laser 62 of frequency irradiates.The boundary material of the laser ablation of high energy high frequency increases, the gas of generation Amount increase.A large amount of gas can be obtained the air pressure inside of bigger to further jack up air cavity outer wall by compression.Final The air cavity structure height arrived increases, and air pressure inside increases.It is rigid to reduce its deformation when the thickness for reducing air cavity outer wall such as figure When spending.With the 61 irradiation portion interface region of laser compared with low energy, lower frequency.Although the boundary of the laser ablation of low frequency low energy Face substance is limited, and it is limited to generate gas flow.But since the deformation rigidity of air cavity outer wall reduces, lower air pressure inside is the same can be with Jack up cavity outer wall.Finally obtained air cavity structure has certain height, while air pressure inside is limited.
Cavity outer wall 44 is usually made of three-decker, respectively laser reactive layer 20, sensor function layer 30 and is powered on Pole layer 40.Since the thickness of functional layer 30 and electrode layer 40 is generally much less than laser reactive layer 20.The bending stiffness of film and its The cube of thickness is directly proportional, therefore functional layer 30 and the bending stiffness of electrode layer 40 can be ignored relative to laser reactive layer. Preferably, using Kapton as when laser reactive layer, typical thickness is 1 micron to 50 microns.Polyimides is thin Film itself can be used as the dielectric layer of capacitance sensor, and sensor is not necessarily to deposit functional layers at this time.Utilize vacuum evaporation process system The thickness of standby metal electrode layer is usually at 100 nanometers hereinafter, the bending stiffness of Kapton is about the 200 of electrode layer Times or so.Therefore it is only necessary to consider influence of the deformation rigidity of Kapton to cavity height.In preparation process In, it when Kapton is thicker, is irradiated using low frequency, low-energy laser 61, obtained relatively low, the internal pressure of air cavity height It is moderate.For example, when the thickness of polyimide layer is 20 microns, using the excimer laser of 308 nano wave lengths, With 160mJ/cm2Energy density, irradiated with the frequency of per unit area irradiation 10 times, obtained cavity height is about 1.5 microns. If wish to increase internal air cavity pressure while improving air cavity height to expand transducer range.Polyimides can not changed Under the premise of layer thickness, using high-energy, the laser 61 of high irradiation frequency, makes more substances that ablation reaction occur, generate bigger The gas of amount.Obtained air cavity height increases, and internal pressure increases.Such as when the thickness of polyimide layer is 20 microns, Using the excimer laser of 308 nano wave lengths, with 220mJ/cm2Energy density, with 20 frequencies of per unit area irradiation Irradiation, obtained cavity height is about 3 microns, and cavity height operating mode compared to before is doubled.If being intended merely to improve air cavity Height is to expand transducer range, it is undesirable that dramatically increases air cavity pressure to reduce transducer sensitivity.It can prepare When reduce laser reactive layer thickness.Such as when the thickness of polyimide layer is 10 microns, the standard of 308 nano wave lengths is utilized Molecular laser, with 160mJ/cm2Energy density, with 10 irradiation frequencies of per unit area irradiation, obtained cavity height Also about 3 microns.For different laser reactive layer materials, laser reactive layer thickness, laser processing technology parameter, need into Technological experiment determines the cavity height obtained under different parameters combination and air pressure inside situation to row repeatedly, to real in the preparation Now to the control of transducer sensitivity and range.
Fig. 4 is the schematic diagram that the preparation of array sensor is realized using one step of photomask.Array sensor can be with Realization measures the multiple spot of measured zone simultaneously, to obtain the whole audience information of the measurement field.Using the flexibility of laser processing, Can in laser irradiation using photomask to form arbitrary graphic pattern, the cavity structure of General Cell arrangement, to real A laser scanning is now utilized to realize the preparation of high density arrays sensor.As shown, in laser irradiation, in transparent base Place photomask 63 in plate incidence side.The photomask allows laser to pass through in specific region, is absorbed in specific region Or reflection incident laser, prevent laser from passing through.If the requirement on machining accuracy to array sensor is not high, which can be with By way of mechanical processing, on the impermeable stimulative substance tablet such as metal scribing pierced pattern obtains.Using laser according to default Path scan entire transparent substrate.The laser of non-hollow-out part fails to penetrate mask plate, and the interface of corresponding region is not affected by photograph It penetrates.The hollow-out part laser of mask plate can pass through, and corresponding region interface occurs to detach and formed cavity structure, each individual Cavity structure can form a sensor unit.The shape of final sensor unit, rule of arranging, arrangement density etc. is by mask The shape control of the hollow-out part of version.If wanting to prepare the array biography that as shown in Figure 44 multiply 3 arrangements on a lens substrate Sensor.Then photomask 63 is 4 circular holes for multiplying 3 arrangements.Each hollow-out part forms individual air cavity, to form one A independent sensor unit.Laser scans entire transparent substrate according to predefined paths, and corresponding hollow-out part forms 4 and multiplies 3 arrangements Round air cavity 70, can prepare 4 sensor arrays for multiplying 3 arrangements using the array air cavity.The pattern of the array polarizing electrode Change can by deposition when mask film covering version patterned to obtain.To complete entire array using a laser scanning The preparation of sensor.
Fig. 5 is the Signal acquiring and processing flow chart of array sensor.It is more by front end if capacitance sensor array Path multiplexer (MUX) is connected to capacitive digital converter (AD7747), and capacitance signal is converted directly into voltage digital signal, from And realize the measurement of entire array capacitance, miniature control unit (MCU) plays the role of control to whole work process.If Piezoelectric signal is amplified and is filtered first, is then attached to Front End Multiplexer by piezoelectric-array sensor array (MUX), digital signal is converted to by capture card A/D, MCU plays the role of control to whole process, and final data passes through USB Output is to PC or is further processed.
