图10为本发明实施例提供的另一种红外探测器像元的剖面结构示意图,图11为本发明实施例提供的另一种红外探测器像元的剖面结构示意图。结合图1、图10和图11,第一柱状结构61和和第二柱状结构62均可以包括至少一层实心柱状结构和至少一层空心柱状结构,图10和图11以第一柱状结构61为例示意性地示出了第一柱状结构61包括一层实心柱状结构630和一层空心柱状结构640,图10示例性地设置第一柱状结构61中的实心柱状结构630位于空心柱状结构640临近CMOS测量电路***1的一侧,图11示例性地设置第一柱状结构61中的实心柱状结构630位于空心柱状结构640远离CMOS测量电路***1的一侧,第二柱状结构62同样也可以采用类似图10和图11所示的第一柱状结构61采用的实心柱状结构叠加空心柱状结构的设置方式,以使得红外探测器具备上述实施例所述的空心柱状结构和实心柱状结构的优点。
示例性地,可以设置位于第一柱状结构61或第二柱状结构62中同一层的立柱为相同类型的立柱,即位于第一柱状结构61中同一层的立柱可以均为实心柱状结构或者均为空心柱状结构,位于第二柱状结构62中同一层的立柱可以均为实心柱状结构或者均为空心柱状结构,以实现位于同一层的立柱可以采用相同的工艺步骤形成,有利于简化柱状结构的制备工艺。另外,同一柱状结构中还可包括不同类型的立柱,同一层也可设置不同类型的立柱,可基于红外探测器的具体需求对立柱类型进行具体设置,本发明实施例对此不作具体限定。
由此,通过设置第一柱状结构61和/或第二柱状结构62包括多层立柱,有利于减小柱状结构中各层立柱的高度,立柱的高度越低,其陡直度越好,因此较易形成陡直度较好的立柱,从而优化柱状结构整体的陡直度,柱状结构的整体尺寸也可做到更小,有利于减小柱状结构所占空间,从而增大CMOS红外传感结构的有效面积,进而提高占空比,提高红外探测器的红外探测灵敏度。另外,柱状结构还可以包括更多层立柱,例如包括三层及以上层立柱,每个立柱可以是实心柱状结构或者空心柱状结构。另外,诸如图3中第一层梁结构111和第二层梁结构112之间的柱状结构113以及图4中第一层吸收板1001和第二层吸收板1002之间的柱状结构1003均可以包括至少一层实心 柱状结构和/或至少一层空心柱状结构,即图3中第一层梁结构111和第二层梁结构112之间的柱状结构113以及图4中第一层吸收板1001和第二层吸收板1002之间的柱状结构1003也可以采用上述实施例示出的空心柱状结构、实心柱状结构以及空心柱状结构和实心柱状结构组合的形式。
结合图1至图11,可以设置吸收板10上形成有至少一个孔状结构,孔状结构至少贯穿吸收板10中的介质层;和/或,梁结构11上形成有至少一个孔状结构,即可以设置仅吸收板10上形成有孔状结构,或者仅梁结构11上形成有孔状结构,或者吸收板10和梁结构11上均形成有孔状结构。示例性地,无论是吸收板10上的孔状结构还是梁结构11上的孔状结构,孔状结构均可以为圆形孔状结构、方形孔状结构、多边形孔状结构或者不规则图形孔状结构,本发明实施例对吸收板10和梁结构11上的孔状结构的形状不作具体限定,且本发明实施例对吸收板10和梁结构11上孔状结构的数量不作具体限定。
由此,设置吸收板10上形成有至少一个孔状结构,孔状结构至少贯穿吸收板10中的介质层,红外探测器中均设置有与吸收板10接触的最终需要释放的牺牲层,而牺牲层的释放需要在红外探测器制作工艺的最后用化学试剂对牺牲层进行腐蚀,吸收板10上的孔状结构有利于增加释放用的化学试剂与牺牲层的接触面积,加快牺牲层的释放速率。另外,吸收板10面积相对梁结构11面积较大,吸收板10上的孔状结构有利于释放吸收板10的内应力,优化吸收板10的平坦化程度,且有利于提高吸收板10的结构稳定性,进而提高整个红外探测器的结构稳定性。另外,设置梁结构11上形成有至少一个孔状结构,有利于进一步减小梁结构11的热导,提高红外探测器的红外探测灵敏度。

图12为本发明实施例提供的另一种红外探测器像元的剖面结构示意图。在上述实施例的基础上,图12同样设置密闭释放隔绝层3位于CMOS红外传感结构2中,密闭释放隔绝层3例如可以为位于反射层4的金属互连层的上方的一层介质层或多层介质层,这里示例性地示出了密闭释放隔绝层3为一层介质层,且密闭释放隔绝层3包覆第一柱状结构61,此时构成密闭释放隔绝层3的材料可以包括碳化硅、碳氮化硅、氮化硅、非晶硅、非晶锗、非晶锗硅、硅、锗、硅锗合金、非晶碳或氧化铝中的至少一种,密闭释放隔绝层3的厚度同样小于牺牲层的厚度。通过设置密闭释放隔绝层3包覆第一柱状结构61,一方面可以利用密闭释放隔绝层3作为第一柱状结构61处的支撑,提高了第一柱状结构61的稳定性,保证第一柱状结构61与悬空微桥结构40以及支撑底座42的电连接。另一方面,包覆第一柱状结构61的密闭释放隔绝层3可以减少第一柱状结构61与外界环境的接触,减少第一柱状结构61与外界环境的接触电阻,进而减少红外探测器像元的噪声,提高红外探测传感器的探测灵敏度,同时可以防止第一柱状结构61裸露在外的金属发生电击穿。同样地,红外探测器的谐振腔通过释放氧化硅牺牲层后的真空腔来实现, 反射层4作为谐振腔的反射层,牺牲层位于反射层4和悬空微桥结构40之间,设置位于反射层4上的至少一层密闭释放隔绝层3选择碳化硅、碳氮化硅、氮化硅、非晶硅、非晶锗、非晶锗硅、硅、锗、硅锗合金、非晶碳或氧化铝等材料作为谐振腔的一部分时,不影响反射层4的反射效果,可以减小谐振腔高度,进而减小牺牲层的厚度,减小氧化硅构成的牺牲层的释放难度。另外,设置密闭释放隔绝层3与第一柱状结构61形成密闭结构,将CMOS测量电路***1与牺牲层完全隔开,实现了对CMOS测量电路***1的保护。
图13为本发明实施例提供的另一种红外探测器像元的剖面结构示意图。与上述实施例所示结构的红外探测器不同的是,图13所示结构的红外探测器中,密闭释放隔绝层3位于CMOS测量电路***1和CMOS红外传感结构2之间的界面,例如密闭释放隔绝层3位于反射层4和CMOS测量电路***1之间,即密闭释放隔绝层3位于反射层4的金属互连层的下方,支撑底座42通过贯穿密闭释放隔绝层3的通孔与CMOS测量电路***1电连接。具体地,由于CMOS测量电路***1和CMOS红外传感结构2均采用CMOS工艺制备形成,当制备形成CMOS测量电路***1后,将制备形成包含有CMOS测量电路***1的晶圆传输至下一道工艺以制备形成CMOS红外传感结构2,因为氧化硅是CMOS工艺中最常用的介质材料,CMOS电路上多以氧化硅作为金属层间的绝缘层,所以腐蚀2um左右厚度的氧化硅时如果没有隔绝层作为阻挡,将会严重影响电路,为了确保释放牺牲层氧化硅时不会腐蚀CMOS测量电路***上的氧化硅介质,本发明实施例在CMOS测量电路***1和CMOS红外传感结构2之间的界面设置了密闭释放隔绝层3。在制备形成CMOS测量电路***1后,在CMOS测量电路***1上制备形成密闭释放隔绝层3,利用密闭释放隔绝层3对CMOS测量电路***1进行保护,而为了保证支撑底座42与CMOS测量电路***1的电连接,在制备形成密闭释放隔绝层3后,在密闭释放隔绝层3对应支撑底座42的区域采用刻蚀工艺形成通孔,通过通孔实现支撑底座42与CMOS测量电路***1的电连接。另外,设置密闭释放隔绝层3与支撑底座42形成密闭结构,将CMOS测量电路***1与牺牲层完全隔开,实现对CMOS测量电路***1的保护。
示例性地,构成密闭释放隔绝层3的材料可以包括碳化硅、碳氮化硅、氮化硅、非晶硅、非晶锗、非晶锗硅、硅、锗、硅锗合金、非晶碳或氧化铝中的至少一种。具体地,碳化硅、碳氮化硅、氮化硅、非晶硅、非晶锗、非晶锗硅、硅、锗、硅锗合金、非晶碳或氧化铝均为CMOS工艺抗腐蚀材料,即这些材料不会受牺牲层释放用试剂的腐蚀,因此密闭释放隔绝层3可以用于在进行腐蚀工艺释放牺牲层时保护CMOS测量电路***1不受侵蚀。另外,密闭释放隔绝层3覆盖CMOS测量电路***1设置,密闭释放隔绝层3还可以用于在制作CMOS红外传感结构2的释放刻蚀过程中,保护CMOS测量电路***1不受工艺影响。另外,当反射层4上设置有至少一层密闭释放隔绝层3时,设置构成密闭释放隔绝层3的材料包括硅、锗、硅锗合金、非晶硅、非晶锗、非晶硅锗、非晶碳、碳化硅、氧化铝、氮化硅或碳氮化硅中的至少一种,在设置密闭释放隔绝层3提高第一柱状结构61稳定性的同时,密闭释放隔绝层3几乎不会影响谐振腔内的反射过程,可以避免密闭释放隔绝层3影响谐振腔的反射过程,进而避免密闭释放隔绝层3对红外探测器探测灵敏度的影响。

可选地,可以设置红外探测器还包括超材料结构和/或偏振结构,超材料结构或者偏振结构为至少一层金属互连层。图16为本发明实施例提供的另一种红外探测器的立体结构示意图,如图16所示,构成超材料结构的金属互连层可以包括多个阵列排布的金属重复单元20,每个金属重复单元包括两个对角设置的L型图案化结构21,此时红外探测器的红外吸收谱段为3微米至30微米波段。也可以如图17所示,设置构成超材料结构的金属互连层上设置有多个阵列排布的图案化镂空结构22,图案化镂空结构22呈开口圆环状,此时红外探测器的红外吸收谱段为3微米至30微米波段。也可以如图18所示,设置构成超材料结构的金属互连层上设置有多个直线条带结构23和多个回折条带结构24,直线条带结构23和回折条带结构24沿垂直于直线条带结构23的方向交替排列,此时红外探测 器的红外吸收谱段为8微米至24微米波段。也可以如图19所示,设置构成超材料结构的金属互连层上设置有多个阵列排布的图案化镂空结构25,图案化镂空结构25呈正六边形,此时红外探测器的红外吸收谱段为3微米至30微米波段。需要说明的是,本发明实施例对构成超材料结构的金属互连层上的具体图案不作限定,确保重复的图案能实现超材料结构或者偏振结构的功能即可。
具体地,超材料是一种基于广义斯涅尔定律,通过控制波前相位、振幅以及偏振进行电磁或光学波束调控的材料,也可以称为超表面或者超结构,超表面或超结构为超薄的二维阵列平面,可以灵活有效地操纵电磁波的相位、极化方式以及传播模式等特性。本发明实施例利用如图16至图19所示的图案化结构形成电磁超材料结构,即形成了具备超常电磁性质的人工复合结构或复合材料,以实现对电磁波和光波性能的剪裁,从而获得电磁波吸收特殊器件,本发明实施例利用图案化结构形成的超材料结构与红外探测器结构相结合,超材料结构吸收的红外电磁波会增强红外探测器本身吸收的红外电磁波信号,超材料结构吸收的红外电磁波与微桥式探测器结构本身吸收的红外电磁波叠加,超材料结构吸收的红外电磁波与入射红外电磁波的分量产生耦合,也就是说,超材料结构的设置使得吸收的红外电磁波信号的强度增加,从而提高了红外探测器对入射红外电磁波的吸收率。
图20为本发明实施例提供的一种偏振结构的俯视结构示意图。如图20所示,偏振结构26可以包括若干个依次排列的光栅27,相邻光栅27之间的间隔为10nm至500nm,光栅27可以如图20所示为直线型,也可以如图21和图22所示为弯曲型,且偏振结构26中的光栅27可以任意角度旋转或组合,偏振结构26的设置可以使CMOS传感结构吸收特定方向的偏振光。示例性地,光栅27可以为刻蚀金属薄膜,即刻蚀金属互连层形成的结构。具体地,偏振是光的一个重要信息,偏振探测可以把信息量从三维,例如光强、光谱和空间,扩充到七维,例如光强、光谱、空间、偏振度、偏振方位角、偏振椭率和旋转的方向,由于地物背景的偏振度远小于人造目标的偏振度,因此红外偏振探测技术在空间遥感领域有非常重要的应用。在现有的偏振探测***中,偏振元件独立于探测器之外,需要在整机的镜头上增加偏振片,或者进行偏振镜头的设计,这种方法的成本比较高,设计难度也比较大。通过旋转偏振元件获取偏振信息,这种现有的偏振探测***的缺点是光学元件复杂,而且光路***复杂。另外,通过偏振片与探测器组合采集的偏振图像需要通过图像融合算法进行处理,不仅复杂而且也相对不准确。
本发明实施例通过将偏振结构26与非制冷红外探测器进行单片集成,不仅可以实现偏振敏感型红外探测器的单片集成,而且极大地降低了光学设计的难度,简化了光学***,减少了光学元件,降低了光学***的成本。另外,通过单片集成的偏振型非制冷红外探测器采集的图像为原始红外图像信息,CMOS测量电路***1只需要处理红外探测器探测的信号就可以得到准确的图像信息,而不需要进行现有探测器的图像融合,极大的提升了图像的真实性与有效性。另外,偏振结构26也可以位于吸收板10上方且不与吸收板10接触设置,即偏振结构26可以为位于悬空微桥结构40上方的悬空结构,偏振结构26与悬空微桥结构40可以采用柱子连接支撑的方式或者采用键合支撑的方式,偏振结构26与红外探测器像元可以一一对应键合,也可以采用整个芯片键合的方式。由此单独悬空的金属光栅结构不会造成红外敏感微桥结构的形变,不会影响敏感薄膜的热敏特性。
示例性地,结合图1至图22,超材料结构为至少一层金属互连层,偏振结构为至少一层金属互连层,悬空微桥结构40包括第三介质层130和第四介质层150时,超材料结构或者偏振结构可以是第三介质层130临近CMOS测量电路***1一侧的至少一层金属互连层,例如可以设置构成超材料结构或者偏振结构的金属互连层位于第三介质层130临近CMOS测量电路***1的一侧且与第三介质层130接触设置。示例性地,也可以设置超材料结构或者偏振结构是第四介质层150远离CMOS测量电路***1一侧的至少一层金属互连层,例如可以设置构成超材料结构或者偏振结构的金属互连层位于第四介质层150远离CMOS测量电路***1的一侧且与第四介质层150接触设置。示例性地,也可以设置超材料结构或者偏振结构为位于第三介质层130和第四介质层150中间的且与第二电极层140电绝缘的至少一层金属互连层,例如可以设置构成超材料结构或者偏振结构的金属互连层位于第三介质层130与第二电极层140之间且与第二电极层140电绝缘或者位于第四介质层150与第二电极层140之间且与第二电极层140电绝缘。示例性地,也可以设置第二电极层140作为超材料结构层或者偏振结构层,即可以在第二电极层140上形成上述实施例所述的图案化结构。
可选地,结合图6和图7,可以设置第一柱状结构61包括至少一层实心柱状结构,实心柱状结构包括实心结构601,图6和图7示例性地设置第一柱状结构61的实心结构601的侧壁包覆有至少一层介质层602且实心结构601与一层介质层602接触设置,图6和图7示例性地设置第一柱状结构61的实心结构601的侧壁包覆有一层介质层602且实心结构601与该介质层602接触设置,构成第一柱状结构61的实心结构601的材料包括钨、铜或铝中的至 少一种,构成介质层602的材料可以包括氧化硅、氮化硅、碳化硅、非晶碳、氧化铝、氧化钛、氧化钒、非晶硅、非晶锗、非晶锗硅、非晶锗氧硅、硅、锗、锗硅、锗氧硅、石墨烯、铜或铂中的至少一种。
具体地,包覆第一柱状结构61的实心结构601的至少一层介质层602可以起到电绝缘的作用,利用介质层602保护第一柱状结构61的实心结构601以避免外部材料侵蚀第一柱状结构61的实心结构601的同时,介质层602可以作为第一柱状结构61的辅助支撑结构,其与第一柱状结构61的实心结构601共同支撑悬空微桥结构40,有利于提高第一柱状结构61的力学稳定性,从而提高红外传感器的结构稳定性。另外,设置构成第一柱状结构61的介质层602的材料可以包括氧化硅、氮化硅、碳化硅、非晶碳、氧化铝、氧化钛、氧化钒、非晶硅、非晶锗、非晶锗硅、非晶锗氧硅、硅、锗、锗硅、锗氧硅、石墨烯、铜或铂中的至少一种,前述材料均不会被气相氟化氢、四氟化碳或三氟甲烷腐蚀,因此在后续工艺步骤中利用气相氟化氢、四氟化碳和三氟甲烷腐蚀牺牲层时不会腐蚀包覆第一柱状结构61的实心结构601的介质层602。示例性地,可以如图6和图7所示,设置包覆第一柱状结构61的实心结构601的介质层602为梁结构11中的第一介质层13,包覆第一柱状结构61的实心结构601的介质层可以是单独制作的介质层,或者也可以设置包覆第一柱状结构61的实心结构601的介质层为梁结构11中的第二介质层15或第一热敏感介质层。

红外探测器的热量从吸收板10或者说梁结构11的中间部分730向连接同一梁结构11的两个第一柱状结构61传导,第一半桥结构710可以包括支撑层、电极层和钝化层,例如包括第一介质层13、第一电极层14和第二介质层15,第二半桥结构720可以包括第一介质层13和/或第二介质层15,即第一半桥结构710的厚度大于第二半桥结构720的厚度,在第一半桥结构710和第二半桥结构720长度相等的情况下,第一半桥结构710由于其厚度较大,相较于第二半桥结构720,其上的热量传导速度更快。本发明实施例对第一半桥结构710和第二半桥结构720的长度进行不对称设计,即设置第一半桥结构710的长度大于第二半桥结构720的长度,减缓了厚度因素导致的热量传导速度较快的第一半桥结构710上的热量传导速度,进而实现了热对称结构70中的第一半桥结构710与第二半桥结构720的热导非平衡差值小于等于20%,即热对称结构70中的第一半桥结构710与第二半桥结构720的热量传导速度的差距小于等于20%,优选地,可以实现热对称结构70中的第一半桥结构710与第二半桥结构720的热导相同,进一步降低了红外探测器的总热导,进而提高了红外探测器的红外探测性能,且减小了红外探测器在相同力的作用下受到的应力和形变,提高了红外探测器的稳定性和抗冲击能力,增强了红外探测器的力学强度。
具体地,结合图29和图30,并行梁结构a和并行梁结构b交汇于同一节点A,并行梁结构c和并行梁结构d交汇于节点B和节点C,并行梁结构e和并行梁结构f交汇于同一节点D。另外,热对称结构70中的第一半桥结构710的长度大于第二半桥结构720的长度,因此,并行梁结构a为第一半桥结构710,并行梁结构b为第二半桥结构720,二者构成一个热对称结构70,并行梁结构c为第一半桥结构710,并行梁结构d为第二半桥结构720,二者构成一个热对称结构70,并行梁结构e为第一半桥结构710,并行梁结构f为第二半桥结构720,二者构成一个热对称结构70。
可选地,结合图2、图5、图6、图7、图8、图12和图15,悬空微桥结构40包括第一介质层13和第二介质层15时,可以设置相对设置的梁结构11之间的第一介质层13和/或第二介质层15形成图案化膜层结构,这里相对设置的梁结构11即位于图1中左右两侧的梁结构11或者位于图1中上下两侧的梁结构11,图案化膜层结构包括多个条状图案,图案化膜层结构中的条状图案相对于梁结构11对称设置。
以第一介质层13为例,图31为本发明实施例提供的一种第一介质层的俯视结构示意图。结合图1至图31,可以设置相对设置的梁结构11之间的第一介质层13形成如图31所示的图案化膜层结构90,图案化膜层结构90即位于图2中的A1区域,图案化膜层结构90包括多个条状图案91,图案化膜层结构90中的条状图案91相对于梁结构11对称设置,即图案化膜层结构90中的条状图案91相对于图31中左右两侧的梁结构11对称设置。由此,通过设置相对设置的梁结构之11间的第一介质层13和/或第二介质层15形成图案化膜层结构90,图案化膜层结构90包括多个条状图案91,图案化膜层结构90中的条状图案91相对于梁结构11对称设置,有效提高了图案化膜层结构90的力学稳定性,进而有利于提高整个红外探测器的力学稳定性。
另外需要说明的是,本发明实施例所述的图案化膜层结构90中的图案不限于图31所示图案形式,例如图案化膜层结构90还可以包括更多条状图案以形成网格状结构等等,本发明实施例对图案化膜层结构90中的具体图案不作限定,确保图案化膜层结构90中的条状图案相对于梁结构11对称即可,且第一介质层13和第二介质层15形成的图案化膜层结构90中的图案可以相同也可以不同。
可选地,可以设置红外探测器是基于3nm、7nm、10nm、14nm、22nm、28nm、32nm、45nm、65nm、90nm、130nm、150nm、180nm、250nm或350nm CMOS工艺制程,前述尺寸表征集成电路的工艺节点,即表征集成电路加工过程中的特征尺寸。
可选地,可以设置构成红外探测器中的金属互连层的金属连线材料包括铝、铜、钨、钛、镍、铬、铂、银、钌或钴中的至少一种,例如可以设置构成反射层4的材料包括铝、铜、钨、钛、镍、铬、铂、银、钌或钴中的至少一 种。另外,设置CMOS测量电路***1和CMOS红外传感结构2均使用CMOS工艺制备,在CMOS测量电路***1上直接制备CMOS红外传感结构2,能够实现第一柱状结构61以及第二柱状结构62的径向边长大于等于0.5um,小于等于3um,梁结构11的宽度,即梁结构11中单线条的宽度小于等于0.3um,谐振腔的高度小于等于2.5um。
另外需要说明的是,本发明实施例并没有给出属于本发明实施例保护范围的所有结构红外探测器的示意图,并非对本发明实施例保护范围的限定,本发明实施例公开的不同特征之间可以任意组合,例如无论红外探测器中是否有第一加固结构和/或第二加固结构,均属于本发明实施例的保护范围,不同结构的第一柱状结构和第二柱状结构的任意组合也属于本发明实施例的保护范围。
