(19), the EPW anisotropic etch, erode away the shape of the piece of quality.Critical process in the concrete processing technology of the acceleration sensor chip of above-described eight variable shaped beam structures is described in detail as follows: (one) EPW anisotropic etch
Monocrystalline silicon is anisotropic material, and is different with key density in atom line density, the surface density of different crystal orientations and crystal face, therefore has different physicochemical characteristicss in different directions.The bulk silicon micro mechanic process technology has two kinds of isotropic etch and anisotropic etchs.The anisotropic etch of silicon is meant that the different crystal faces to silicon have different corrosion rates.Anisotropic etch has the characteristics of less sideetching speed than isotropic etch, thus when the processing microtexture the more frequent anisotropic etch of using.Anisotropic etch speed is relevant with the crystal orientation.Anisotropic etchant commonly used has KOH system and EPW system.But KOH system and microelectronics are incompatible.The accelerometer mass is obtained by the EPW anisotropic etchant.EPW is an ethylenediamine, the mixed liquor of catechol and water.The corrosion rate of EPW corrosive liquid and the proportioning of composition, the factors such as doping content of corrosion temperature and silicon substrate are relevant.Anisotropic etch can the limit corrosion crystal face, and { corrosion rate of 111} crystal face is than { slow many of 100} face in the EPW system.The side in the V-shape hole chamber that the mask window that carves on (100) substrate is eroded away along<110〉direction the time is { 111} crystal face, { 111} and the { angle theta of 100}=54.7 °.With EPW corrosion<100〉substrate, to the window of any closed figure,, all can occur at last through corrosion for a long time<110〉orientation and wall be<111 vestibule.On mask window edge<110〉square hole.The side of the vestibule that the mask window that carves on (100) substrate is eroded away along<110〉direction the time is that { the 111} crystal face, { 111} is with { angle theta of 100}=54.7 ° are as Figure 18 and shown in Figure 19.The reaction equation of EPW system corrosion silicon can be expressed as:
Wb is the width at vestibule top, and ws is the width of cavity bottom, and h is the vestibule degree of depth of corrosion.w
s=w
b-2h
(2) convex corner compensation
Anisotropic etch does not corrode re-entrant angle, so the vestibule border in good order.And anisotropic etch often corrodes salient angle, and the corrosion rate of salient angle is relevant with the type of mordant and exposed area.Wish to obtain neat mesa structure when making acceleration transducer, when using EPW corrosive liquid corrosion (100) substrate in the reality, when mask was rectangle, corrosion presented dodecagon through the short period, and long-time corrosion is octagon.Table top salient angle sideetching is relevant with factors such as corrosion depth, mordant proportioning types.Corrosion experiment and measurement show, to EPW " B " mordant dip plane be the 212} face, and the 212} face with the intersection of 100} face is<121 〉.Therefore when making such device, must adopt the method for convex corner compensation.Compensation has two kinds of methods: 1. the drift angle at mask adds compensation; 2. make mask with respect to<110〉angle of deviation in driction.In design, adopt first method.The method of interpolation compensation bar has several, adopts in the design and adds foursquare scheme, as Figure 20, Figure 21 and shown in Figure 22.EPW " B " mordant (ethylenediamine is used in corrosion, the mol ratio of catechol and water is 43.8%: 4.2%: 52%), under 115 ℃, corrosion depth is H, two dip plane, salient angle place are dc at the intersection point of (100) face to the vertical range of mask drift angle, and the mask edge is d to the distance on constriction point top.D, the physical dimension of dc and w meets following formula:
dc=dsinα+dcosα (d≤0.5w)
Dc=0.5wcos α+dsin α (dc of d 〉=0.5w), w and corrosion depth H meet following relational expression:
H=(0.5wsinα+dcosα)/UC (d≤0.5w)
H=(0.5cosα+dsinα)/Uc (d≥0.5w)
Uc is the normalized value in the experiment in the formula, Uc=dc/H=0.42, and the type of it and mordant, composition proportion and temperature are relevant.α be the 212} face with the intersection of 100} face and<110〉angle of direction, α=18.50.Work as d=0.5w, during H=340 μ m, can obtain w=225.6 μ m, d=112.8 μ m, Figure 20 of mask, Figure 21 and shown in Figure 22.
(3) RIE dry etching
Though wet etching is widely used in the micromachined, also there are many shortcomings in it, for example uses a large amount of poisonous medicines, and efficient is low; The sideetching effect is arranged, be difficult to obtain high-precision size; Some material (as Si3N4, SiO2, etc.) and insoluble metal are difficult to corrosion etc.So developed some dry etching technology recently.RIE is exactly wherein a kind of.RIE (Reactive Ion Etching) full name is that the reactive ion etching of free radical vertical incidence is also referred to as reactive sputtering corrosion (RSE), and it belongs to a kind of plasma etching.Plasma etching technology has three outstanding advantages: the surface configuration of an etching is controlled easily, does not have remaining etching surface; The back side of two etchings need not protection; Three etching processes are compatible mutually with CMOS technology; Four can obtain bigger depth-to-width ratio.During RIE method dry etching, on anode, add bias voltage, the ion of carrying active particle is accelerated and vertical incidence in the sheet sub-surface, active particle forms etching with etching material chemically reactive.Because directed incident, etching has isotropy, and high-resolution figure is highly beneficial for making.
(4) annealing
Follow ion implantation process, incident ion will have a series of defective around its process, even form damage zone, and the foreign atom that injects often is in interstitial site, and electric conductivity generally is not provided.The semiconductor annealing technology is a thermal effect of utilizing various form of energy to produce, eliminates the semiconductor slice, thin piece and is playing various defectives and the internal stress that the ion injection waits some processes to produce, or make effectively electricity activation of dopant atom.Method for annealing commonly used is the thermal annealing technology.
(5) layout design
Adopt P type wafer to do substrate, inject phosphorus as N type piezoresistance.
Resistive layer adopts ion implantation to obtain, and square resistance is about 400 Ω/.Be connected with low-resistance silicon between piezoresistance and the metal level, low-resistance silicon obtains with diffusion method.The square resistance of low-resistance silicon is about 2 Ω/, and the resistance on every beam is about 30 Ω.Low-resistance silicon is connected with metal wants windowing.The bulk silicon etching of mass will carry out convex corner compensation.
Accelerometer needs 7 lithography mask versions altogether.Resistive layer version wherein, the diffusion layer version, the metal level version, the beam version, reverse side makes the version that activity space is arranged between mass and the base, each one of mass and convex corner compensation version.Positive five, two of reverse side.
Shown in Figure 23 is the photo in kind of the result after the three dimension acceleration sensor chip manufacture.
