Although not shown, the top electrode of the resonator may also have a process layer disposed thereon, which may cover the top electrode, and which may function as a mass tuning load or passivation layer. The passivation layer may be made of dielectric material, such as silicon dioxide, aluminum nitride, silicon nitride, etc.
Further, in the structure shown in fig. 3A, two resonators are formed at the same horizontal position of the substrate S, and the two resonators are different in spatial position in the vertical direction or in the thickness direction of the substrate.
As can be appreciated by those skilled in the art, three resonators or more may also be stacked. Figure 9 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a bulk acoustic wave resonator assembly according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 9, the resonator assembly includes a first resonator, a second resonator, and a third resonator stacked in the thickness direction, an acoustic decoupling layer 201 (a cavity in this embodiment) is provided between atop electrode 104 of the first resonator and abottom electrode 202 of the second resonator, an acoustic decoupling layer 301 (a cavity in this embodiment) is provided between atop electrode 204 of the second resonator and abottom electrode 302 of the third resonator, and theacoustic decoupling layer 301 constitutes an acoustic mirror of the third resonator. Optionally, as shown in fig. 9, the boundary of theacoustic decoupling layer 301 is outside the boundary of theacoustic decoupling layer 201 in the horizontal direction. As can be appreciated, the assembly structures shown in other embodiments of the invention may also be stacked.
In the structure shown in fig. 3A, two resonators above and below are shown, wherein the effective area of the upper resonator is the overlapping area of thetop electrode 204, thepiezoelectric layer 203, thebottom electrode 202, and thecavity 201 in the thickness direction. The lower resonator is an overlapping area of thecavity 201, thetop electrode 104, thepiezoelectric layer 103, thebottom electrode 102, and theacoustic mirror 101 in the thickness direction.
Accordingly, in fig. 9, the effective area of the uppermost third resonator is the overlapping area of thetop electrode 304, thepiezoelectric layer 303, thebottom electrode 302, and thecavity 301 in the thickness direction, the effective area of the middle second resonator is the overlapping area of thecavity 301, thetop electrode 204, thepiezoelectric layer 203, thebottom electrode 202, and thecavity 201 in the thickness direction, and the effective area of the lowermost first resonator is the overlapping area of thecavity 201, thetop electrode 104, thepiezoelectric layer 103, thebottom electrode 102, and thecavity 101 in the thickness direction.
In the structure shown in fig. 3A, the upper resonator is acoustically separated from the lower resonator by acavity 201, i.e. thecavity 201 constitutes an acoustic decoupling layer between the upper and lower resonators, thereby completely avoiding the acoustic coupling problem that may result from the adjacent stacking of the upper and lower resonators.
Thecavity 201 is used as an acoustic decoupling layer, complete acoustic decoupling of the upper resonator and the lower resonator can be achieved, and therefore the performance of the resonators is better. Further, in the case where thecavity 201 is directly surrounded by thetop electrode 104 of the lower resonator and thebottom electrode 202 of the upper resonator (the structure defining the position of the cavity in other embodiments further includes the piezoelectric layer of the upper resonator and/or the lower resonator), such as the structures shown in fig. 3A to 3C, 3E to 3G, and 9, the overall structure is stable and reliable, and the manufacturing process is simple.
As can be understood by those skilled in the art, thecavity 201 is disposed between the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator in the thickness direction of the resonator, including not only the case where at least a portion of the upper and lower boundaries of the cavity is defined by the lower surface of the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the upper surface of the top electrode of the lower resonator, but also the case where the upper surface of the top electrode of the lower resonator is provided with a process layer (e.g., a passivation layer) such that the process layer defines at least a portion of the lower boundary of thecavity 201. These are all within the scope of the present invention.
In the structure shown in fig. 3A, since the plurality of resonators are formed at the same horizontal position of the substrate S, the spatial positions of the plurality of resonators in the vertical direction or in the thickness direction of the substrate are different, and therefore, the area of the filter can be greatly reduced, for example, in the case where two resonators are provided as well, from the area P1 shown in fig. 1 to the area P2 shown in fig. 3A.
As shown in fig. 3A, thebottom electrode 202 of the upper resonator and thetop electrode 104 of the lower resonator are electrically connected to each other at a non-electrode connection terminal. Under the condition that the bottom electrode of the upper resonator is directly connected with the top electrode of the lower resonator, the bottom electrode of the upper resonator is directly and electrically connected with the top electrode of the lower resonator, and the length of the connecting part is shortened compared with that in the figure 1, namely, the transmission path is shortened, and the transmission loss is reduced; in addition, the transmission loss of the electrical signal output is further reduced by the sum of the thicknesses of the top electrode of the lower resonator and the bottom electrode of the upper resonator through the metal thickness. By reducing the electrical losses, the insertion loss of the final filter is optimized. As shown in fig. 3A, the length of the transmission path formed by the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator at the non-electrode-connecting end is d, which may be less than 5 μm.
With the structure of fig. 3A to 3C, for example, since the current transmission path to the lower resonator becomes short, for example, can be less than 5 μm, the transmission loss is reduced, and the thickness of thetop electrode 104 of the lower resonator and the thickness of thebottom electrode 202 of the upper resonator can be thinned, which is advantageous for further miniaturization of the resonator. In the case where the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator are electrically connected to each other, the electrode film thickness of the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the upper resonator can be further reduced simultaneously while reducing the circuit transmission path loss to the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the current transmission path loss to the top electrode of the lower resonator. Accordingly, in the case where the resonance frequency of the lower resonator is greater than 0.5GHz, the thickness of thetop electrode 104 is smaller than
Figure BDA0002621667080000071
And/or the thickness of thebottom electrode 202 is less than in the case where the resonance frequency of the upper resonator is greater than 0.5GHz
Figure BDA0002621667080000072
In a further embodiment, in the case where the resonance frequency of the lower resonator is more than 3GHz, the thickness of thetop electrode 104 may be designed to be less than
Figure BDA0002621667080000073
And/or in case the resonance frequency of the upper resonator is larger than 3GHz, the thickness of thebottom electrode 202 of the upper resonator may also be smaller than
Figure BDA0002621667080000074
As can be understood, in the present invention, the thinning of the thickness of the electrode means thinning of the thickness of the electrode in the effective region of the resonator.
Fig. 3D is a graph schematically illustrating a comparison of insertion loss curves for the structure of fig. 3A with respect to the structure of fig. 1. Fig. 3D is a comparison between the insertion loss curve (solid line) of the 3.5G band using the structure of fig. 3A of the present invention and the insertion loss curve (dotted line) of the conventional structure of fig. 1, and it can be seen that the insertion loss is improved by about 0.1dB due to the reduction of the electrode loss using the structure of fig. 3A of the present invention.
Fig. 3B is a schematic cross-sectional view of the bulk acoustic wave resonator taken along line B-B 'in fig. 2 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 3C is a schematic cross-sectional view of the bulk acoustic wave resonator taken along line C-C' in fig. 2 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. It can be seen that in fig. 3B and 3C, the top electrode of the lower resonator is electrically connected to the bottom electrode of the upper resonator in the circumferential direction around theentire cavity 201.
In the case where the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator are electrically connected to each other, in the structure shown in fig. 3A to 3C, the non-electrode connection end and the electrode connection end of the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator are connected to each other, that is, the electrical connection is formed around the entire circumference of thecavity 201. However, other connection means than the one shown in fig. 3A-3C are possible. For example, as described later with reference to fig. 4A, the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator may be electrically connected to each other only at a part of the non-electrode connection terminal; alternatively, as described with reference to fig. 4B, the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator may be electrically connected to each other only at the electrode connection end; or the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator may be electrically connected to each other only at all or part of the non-electrode connection terminals. These are all within the scope of the present invention.
The connection between the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator is not limited to the structures shown in fig. 3A-3C. Fig. 10 is a cross-sectional view of a resonator assembly in which upper and lower resonator active areas are acoustically isolated by a cavity, and the upper and lower resonators are electrically connected to each other in a right side view of fig. 10, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in the right sectional view of fig. 10, thepiezoelectric layer 103 is covered with thetop electrode 104, and thebottom electrode 202 is connected to thetop electrode 104 at both the electrode connection end and the non-electrode connection end. In the right side view of fig. 10, the electrode connecting end ofbottom electrode 202 overlaps the electrode connecting end oftop electrode 104, and the non-electrode connecting end ofbottom electrode 202 overlaps the non-electrode connecting end oftop electrode 104.
Process orpassivation layers 105 and 205, which may or may not be provided, are shown in fig. 10 as being provided on the top electrode upper surface.
In the structure shown in fig. 10 of the present invention, since the second electrode layer where thebottom electrode 202 is located covers the first electrode layer where thetop electrode 104 is located, the metal thickness of the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator at the electrode connection portion can be increased, which is beneficial to reducing the electrical loss.
When the maximum width of the effective area of the resonator is larger than the height of the cavity, the upper resonator and the lower resonator may be contacted in the cavity due to bending and the like, for example, the height of the cavity is
Figure BDA0002621667080000081
When the maximum width of the resonator effective area is larger than 100 μm, in order to ensure the complete formation of thecavity 201 in the upper and lower resonator effective areas, the stress of the lower resonator can be controlled to bend towards the lower air cavity, and/or the stress of the upper resonator can be controlled to bend towards the upper air cavity, and the top electrode of the finally formed lower resonator is concave downwards, and/or the top electrode of the upper resonator is convex upwards. Fig. 3E-3G are schematic cross-sectional views of the bulk acoustic wave resonator taken along line a-a' in fig. 2 showing that the electrodes defining thecavity 201 have an outwardly convex shape with respect to the common cavity, in particular, fig. 3E is a schematic view of the lower resonator being bent downward, fig. 3F is a schematic view of the upper resonator being bent upward, and fig. 3G is a schematic view of the lower resonator being bent downward and the upper resonator being bent upward, according to various embodiments of the present invention. On the other hand, although the upper and lower resonators are bent by adjusting the stress of their respective films, the upper resonator film is prevented from contacting with the lower resonator film due to the small thickness of the upper and lower resonators and the mechanical contact of the upper and lower resonators at the edge of the acoustic decoupling layer in the form of a cavityThe stress of the lower resonator affects the working state and performance of the lower resonator to a certain degree, and the stress of the lower resonator film affects the working state and performance of the upper resonator to a certain degree; thus, the lower the stress on the upper and lower resonator films, the better (i.e., the films do not bend, as in FIGS. 3A-3C), so that the two resonators do not affect performance; of course, if the upper and lower resonators are not in contact due to bending in the cavity, some of the resonator performance is sacrificed by adjusting the stress (as shown in fig. 3E-3G) to ensure that the two are not in contact.
Fig. 4A is a schematic cross-sectional view of the bulk acoustic wave resonator taken along line a-a' in fig. 2, in which fig. 4A, a part of the non-electrode connecting end of thebottom electrode 202 of the upper resonator in the circumferential direction is electrically connected to thetop electrode 104 of the lower resonator (shown on the right side in fig. 4A), and another part of the non-electrode connecting end of thebottom electrode 202 of the upper resonator in the circumferential direction is provided on the upper surface of thepiezoelectric layer 103 of the lower resonator (shown on the left side in fig. 4A) without being electrically connected to thetop electrode 104 of the lower resonator and outside the non-electrode connecting end of thetop electrode 104 in the lateral direction, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
Fig. 4B is a schematic cross-sectional view of the bulk acoustic wave resonator taken along line B-B' in fig. 2 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and in fig. 4B, the electrode connection end of the bottom electrode of the upper resonator is electrically connected to the electrode connection end of the top electrode of the lower resonator, but the non-electrode connection end of the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the non-electrode connection end of the top electrode of the lower resonator are not connected to each other.
In the above embodiments, the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator are electrically connected to each other, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In the case where two bulk acoustic wave resonators stacked one above the other share an acoustic decoupling layer, the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator may also be electrically isolated from each other.

Figures 6A-6C are cross-sectional schematic views of a bulk acoustic wave resonator assembly according to various embodiments of the present invention showing acavity 201 between the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator and asupport 401 disposed therein.
In the example shown in fig. 3E-3G, the controlling stress can reduce the probability of the upper and lower resonators contacting each other, but when the area of the resonator is larger, as shown in fig. 6A-6C, asupport 401 can be added, thesupport 401 can contact with the top or top electrode of the lower resonator, and the height of the support is less than or equal to the height of the cavity, which means the top of the support contacts with the bottom or bottom electrode of the upper resonator, and the height of the support is less than the height of the cavity, which means the top of the support does not contact with the upper resonator, and when the local thickness of the cavity is reduced due to the bending of the resonator, the top of the support contacts with the upper resonator to play a supporting role. In the structure shown in fig. 6A-6C, thesupport member 401 is in contact with both the bottom electrode of the upper resonator and the top electrode of the lower resonator.
The fabrication of the structure shown in fig. 3A is illustrated with reference to fig. 7A-7E.
First, as shown in fig. 7A, abottom electrode 102, apiezoelectric layer 103, and an electrode material layer for atop electrode 104 are formed on a substrate S, wherein the upper surface of the substrate S is also provided with a recess for forming anacoustic mirror 101, and the recess is filled with a sacrificial material. In fig. 7A-7E, passivation layers, layers of frequencies tuned to be less relevant to the concepts of the present patent are not shown.
Next, as shown in fig. 7B, a sacrificial material layer is deposited on the structure of fig. 7A, and in order to improve the growth quality of the subsequent film layer, the deposited sacrificial material layer is subjected to a surface treatment by a CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) method, and then an etching patterning process is performed on the sacrificial material layer to form asacrificial layer 301, which is removed in the subsequent process to form acavity 201. The sacrificial material may be polysilicon, amorphous silicon, silicon dioxide, doped silicon dioxide, or the like.
Again, an electrode metal layer for forming thebottom electrode 202 of the upper resonator is deposited in a sputtering or evaporation process or the like on the structure shown in fig. 7B. Next, etching is performed on the electrode metal layer corresponding to thebottom electrode 202 and the electrode metal layer corresponding to thetop electrode 104 by photolithography and etching processes to form the structure shown in fig. 7C.
Again, as shown in fig. 7D, the sacrificial material in fig. 7C is released to form thecavity 201 and theacoustic mirror cavity 101.
Finally, thepiezoelectric layer 203 and thetop electrode 204 are formed on the structure shown in FIG. 7D, resulting in the structure shown in FIG. 3A, as shown in FIG. 7E.
It is noted that in the above manufacturing process, the sacrificial material may also be released after the piezoelectric layer and the top electrode of the upper resonator are formed to form thecavity 201 and theacoustic mirror cavity 101.
Fig. 8A and 8B schematically illustrate a structure of a method of fabricating the support member of fig. 6A-6C. The structure shown in fig. 6A is manufactured differently from the structure shown in fig. 3A, in that when the structure shown in fig. 6A is manufactured, before the step corresponding to fig. 7B is performed, thesupport member 401 is required to be manufactured on the structure shown in fig. 7A, then, in the step corresponding to fig. 7B, the sacrificial material layer is deposited to cover thesupport member 401, then, the deposited sacrificial material layer is subjected to surface treatment by a CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) method, and then, an etching patterning process is performed on the sacrificial material layer to form thesacrificial layer 301 shown in fig. 8A, which is used for removing to form thecavity 201 in a subsequent process.
In fig. 8A, the height of thesupport member 401 is smaller than the thickness of thesacrificial layer 301, so that the upper end of thesupport member 401 is not in contact with the bottom electrode of the upper resonator in the finally formed structure, while in fig. 8B, the height of thesupport member 401 is the same as the thickness of thesacrificial layer 301, so that the upper end of thesupport member 401 is in contact with the bottom electrode of the upper resonator in the finally formed structure.
For the structure shown in fig. 7A, the fabrication process is similar to that of the structure of fig. 3A, except that in the step corresponding to fig. 7B, the fabrication of the sacrificial layer is changed to the fabrication of the acoustic reflection layer, and in the step corresponding to fig. 7D, the step of removing thesacrificial layer 301 is eliminated.
It is to be noted that, in the present invention, each numerical range, except when explicitly indicated as not including the end points, can be either the end points or the median of each numerical range, and all fall within the scope of the present invention.
In the present invention, the upper and lower are with respect to the bottom surface of the base of the resonator, and with respect to one component, the side thereof close to the bottom surface is the lower side, and the side thereof far from the bottom surface is the upper side.
In the present invention, the inner and outer are in the lateral direction or the radial direction with respect to the center of the effective area of the resonator (i.e., the effective area center), and one side or one end of a component close to the effective area center is the inner side or the inner end, and one side or one end of the component away from the effective area center is the outer side or the outer end. For a reference position, being inside of the position means being between the position and the center of the effective area in the lateral or radial direction, and being outside of the position means being further away from the center of the effective area than the position in the lateral or radial direction.
As can be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the bulk acoustic wave resonator according to the present invention may be used to form a filter or an electronic device.
