Description

一种MEMS悬臂梁式加速度计及其制造工艺A MEMS cantilever beam accelerometer and its manufacturing process

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及传感器领域,尤其涉及一种加速度计及其制造工艺。The invention relates to the field of sensors, in particular to an accelerometer and a manufacturing process thereof.

背景技术Background technique

现今,加速度计可适用于诸多应用,例如在测量地震的强度并收集数据、检测汽车碰撞时的撞击强度、以及在手机及游戏机中检测出倾斜的角度和方向。而在微电子机械系统(MEMS)技术不断进步的情况下,许多纳米级的小型加速度测量仪已经被商业化广泛采用。Today, accelerometers are used in many applications, such as measuring the intensity of earthquakes and collecting data, detecting the impact strength of automobile collisions, and detecting the angle and direction of tilt in mobile phones and game consoles. With the continuous advancement of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, many small accelerometers at the nanometer scale have been widely used commercially.

传统的电容式加速度计例如专利号ZL03112312.0、公告日为2007年5月30日的中国专利,电容式加速度计包括了悬臂梁及质量块。当有加速度时,加速度计的质量块会向加速度方向运动,使得质量块与电极间的间隙距离发生变化并导致电容的变化。这种加速度计通过微加工工艺制成,具有体积小、造价低等特点。然而,由于只在质量块的两边设置了两根弹性梁,导致在检测过程中非敏感方向的加速度会对敏感方向产生串扰,降低了检测的精度。而且各个悬臂梁也不会产生相同的变形及位移。使得这种加速度计的摆动模态振型不太对称。此外,在外部冲击力较大的时候会出现悬臂梁断裂、质量块与框架发生碰撞等情况。不但大大降低了加速度计的检测可靠性,甚至使得加速度计无法工作。A traditional capacitive accelerometer, such as a Chinese patent with the patent number ZL03112312.0 and an announcement date of May 30, 2007, includes a cantilever beam and a mass. When there is acceleration, the mass block of the accelerometer will move towards the acceleration direction, so that the gap distance between the mass block and the electrode will change and lead to a change in capacitance. This kind of accelerometer is made by micromachining technology, and has the characteristics of small size and low cost. However, since only two elastic beams are arranged on both sides of the mass block, the acceleration in the non-sensitive direction will cause crosstalk to the sensitive direction during the detection process, which reduces the detection accuracy. Moreover, each cantilever beam will not produce the same deformation and displacement. This makes the vibration mode shape of the accelerometer less symmetrical. In addition, when the external impact force is large, the cantilever beam will break, and the mass block will collide with the frame. Not only the detection reliability of the accelerometer is greatly reduced, but even the accelerometer cannot work.

具体实施方式Detailed ways

下面结合附图对本发明做进一步的详述:Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the present invention is described in further detail:

参照图1,按照本发明提供的一种MEMS悬臂梁式加速度计,包括:测量体1、与所述测量体1相连接的上盖板2以及下盖板3;所述测量体1采用包括有上硅层4及下硅层5的绝缘体上外延硅结构,简称SOI结构。每层硅层之间分别设置有氧化埋层6。With reference to Fig. 1, a kind of MEMS cantilever type accelerometer provided according to the present invention comprises: measuring body 1, the upper cover plate 2 that is connected with described measuring body 1 and the lower cover plate 3; Described measuring body 1 adopts comprising The epitaxial silicon-on-insulator structure with the upper silicon layer 4 and the lower silicon layer 5 is called SOI structure for short. A buried oxide layer 6 is respectively arranged between each silicon layer.

参见图2,所述测量体1包括框架11、位于框架11内的质量块12;质量块12与框架11之间通过悬臂梁13相连接。质量块12与框架11之间的间隔空间内设置有多根悬臂梁13。优选地,质量块12为一方形体,悬臂梁以质量块12中线为轴对称设置在质量块12的两边。悬臂梁13为L弯折弹性梁,其中悬臂梁13包括与质量块12相连接的质量块连接臂以及与框架11相连接的框架连接臂。其中,质量块连接臂的中线与质量块12的中线相对应。从而在检测过程中质量块12的位移比较平稳。此外,优选地,质量块连接臂的宽度较大。这样限制了质量块12在水平方向上的位移,也减少了在非敏感方向上的扭动或振动对质量块12带来的影响。Referring to FIG. 2 , the measuring body 1 includes a frame 11 and a mass block 12 located in the frame 11 ; the mass block 12 and the frame 11 are connected by a cantilever beam 13 . A plurality of cantilever beams 13 are arranged in the space between the proof mass 12 and the frame 11 . Preferably, the mass block 12 is a square, and the cantilever beams are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mass block 12 with the center line of the mass block 12 as an axis. The cantilever beam 13 is an L-bending elastic beam, wherein the cantilever beam 13 includes a mass block connecting arm connected to the mass block 12 and a frame connecting arm connected to the frame 11 . Wherein, the midline of the connecting arm of the mass block corresponds to the midline of the mass block 12 . Therefore, the displacement of the mass block 12 is relatively stable during the detection process. In addition, preferably, the width of the connecting arm of the mass block is relatively large. This limits the displacement of the mass block 12 in the horizontal direction, and also reduces the impact on the mass block 12 caused by torsion or vibration in an insensitive direction.

参见图1及图2,当测量体1和上盖板2及下盖板3通电后,测量体1与上盖板2及下盖板3之间会形成一电容。在检测加速度的过程中,质量块12会受加速度影响,向加速度方向移动。根据公式C=εA/d,即两片平行的导电片之间的电容量等于介电系数乘以正对面积除以垂直间距。当因加速度产生位移时,质量块12与上盖板2及下盖板3之间的垂直距离会产生变化。从而导致电容的变化。集成芯片可以通过电容的变化计算出检测到的加速度。优选地,集成电路中还包含一个反馈控制电路。在检测加速度的过程中,质量块12的位移相对中心位置偏移非常小,因此由位移产生的质量块12的倾斜几乎可以忽略不计从而加强了加速度计的检测精准度。Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , when the measuring body 1 , the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 3 are energized, a capacitance will be formed between the measuring body 1 , the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 3 . In the process of detecting the acceleration, the mass block 12 will be affected by the acceleration and move in the direction of the acceleration. According to the formula C=εA/d, that is, the capacitance between two parallel conductive sheets is equal to the dielectric coefficient multiplied by the facing area divided by the vertical distance. When displacement occurs due to acceleration, the vertical distance between the mass block 12 and the upper cover plate 2 and the lower cover plate 3 will change. resulting in a change in capacitance. The integrated chip can calculate the detected acceleration through the change of capacitance. Preferably, the integrated circuit also includes a feedback control circuit. In the process of detecting the acceleration, the displacement of the mass block 12 deviates very little from the central position, so the inclination of the mass block 12 caused by the displacement is almost negligible, thereby enhancing the detection accuracy of the accelerometer.

参见图1及图2,此外,本加速度计上还设置有过载保护装置。过载保护装置包括了在水平方向保护的缓冲梁14以及在垂直方向上保护的凸 点15及弹性部16。其中,缓冲梁14为弹性梁。并以质量块12的中线为轴对称设置在质量块12的两个端角处。当外力过大时,质量块12会产生超出检测范围的位移。此时,质量块12运动方向上的缓冲梁14会被压缩,而在质量块12运动方向的相反方向上的缓冲梁14会被拉伸。缓冲梁14会吸收部分外力,并将质量块12限制在位移范围之内。从而保护质量块12和框架11。而在垂直方向上,凸点15和弹性部16可以呈一体设置在质量块12、上盖板2或下盖板3上,或者分别设置在质量块12、上盖板2或下盖板3上彼此相对应的位置上。当垂直方向上的外力过大时,凸点15会先接触弹性部16,并迫使弹性部16产生一定的形变,从而减缓质量块12在运动方向上的进一步运动,减少外部冲击力对质量块12的冲击和影响。本加速度计中的过载保护装置为可选方案。设计者可以根据加速度计的工作环境以及成本等多方面考虑后选择。此外,缓冲梁14的数量以及垂直方向上的过载保护装置的数量也不仅限于本实施例中给出的数量。Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2, in addition, the accelerometer is also provided with an overload protection device. The overload protection device includes a bumper beam 14 protected in the horizontal direction and a raised point 15 and an elastic portion 16 protected in the vertical direction. Wherein, the buffer beam 14 is an elastic beam. And it is arranged at two end corners of the mass block 12 symmetrically with the center line of the mass block 12 as an axis. When the external force is too large, the mass block 12 will produce a displacement beyond the detection range. At this time, the buffer beam 14 in the moving direction of the mass block 12 will be compressed, and the buffer beam 14 in the opposite direction to the moving direction of the mass block 12 will be stretched. The buffer beam 14 will absorb part of the external force and limit the mass block 12 within the displacement range. The mass 12 and the frame 11 are thereby protected. In the vertical direction, the protruding point 15 and the elastic portion 16 can be integrally arranged on the mass block 12, the upper cover plate 2 or the lower cover plate 3, or respectively arranged on the mass block 12, the upper cover plate 2 or the lower cover plate 3 in positions corresponding to each other. When the external force in the vertical direction is too large, the convex point 15 will contact the elastic part 16 first, and force the elastic part 16 to produce a certain deformation, thereby slowing down the further movement of the mass block 12 in the moving direction and reducing the external impact force on the mass block. 12 shocks and effects. The overload protection device in this accelerometer is optional. Designers can choose according to the working environment and cost of the accelerometer after considering many aspects. In addition, the number of buffer beams 14 and the number of overload protection devices in the vertical direction are not limited to the numbers given in this embodiment.

接着,根据图3至图8来详细说明用于制造本发明中的MEMS悬臂梁式加速度计的制造工艺,该制造工艺包括以下步骤:Next, describe in detail the manufacturing process for manufacturing the MEMS cantilever beam accelerometer in the present invention according to Fig. 3 to Fig. 8, this manufacturing process comprises the following steps:

Afterwards, the backside of the SOI silicon wafer is exposed according to a specific pattern, and developed with a developer. This way the exposed pattern will appear.

本发明中所述的深度刻蚀及所述刻蚀的方法为以下方法中的一种或多种方法:干法刻蚀或湿法刻蚀,所述干法刻蚀包括:硅的深度反应离子刻蚀及反应离子刻蚀。The deep etching and the etching method described in the present invention are one or more methods in the following methods: dry etching or wet etching, and the dry etching includes: deep reaction of silicon Ion etching and reactive ion etching.

由于本加速度计是通过检测质量块12与上下盖板2,3之间的平面电容变化来计算垂直加速度,这种检测方式具有较高的检测灵敏度和准确度。而且本加速度计中的质量块12较大,进一步增加了检测的灵敏度。此外,由于悬臂梁13较宽,限制了质量块12在水平方向上的位移,同时本结构中对称设置有四根悬臂梁减少了水平方向对垂直方向上加速度之间的串扰和影响。而在质量块12和框架11之间加设缓冲梁14可以有效的保护加速度计,防止其因外力过大而受损。Since the accelerometer calculates the vertical acceleration through the plane capacitance change between the detection mass 12 and the upper and lower cover plates 2, 3, this detection method has high detection sensitivity and accuracy. Moreover, the mass block 12 in the accelerometer is relatively large, which further increases the detection sensitivity. In addition, because the cantilever beam 13 is wider, the displacement of the mass block 12 in the horizontal direction is limited. At the same time, four cantilever beams are symmetrically arranged in this structure to reduce the crosstalk and influence between the horizontal direction and the vertical acceleration. Adding a buffer beam 14 between the mass block 12 and the frame 11 can effectively protect the accelerometer from being damaged due to excessive external force.
