Description

Make the method and the structure thereof of low driving voltage micro-holding type actuator
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method and structure thereof of making low driving voltage micro-holding type actuator, it applies to the face type micro-processing technology (Surface Micromechaning Technology) of similar manufacture of semiconductor technology, have a batch making, low-cost and integrated characteristic, to solve the traditional IC technical disadvantages.
Background technology
The global in recent years mini-fan (Micro Fan) that is developed is utilization MEMS (micro electro mechanical system) (Microelectromechanical Systems; MEMS) fabrication techniques element, its size approximately has only 2mm * 2mm.The structure of mini-fan comprises two parts, and the first is made the gentle breeze fan blade with self-packaging technology (Self-assembly), and it two is with micro-holding type actuator (Scratch Drive Actuator; SDA) micro motor of forming as rotor (Micro Motor), and the detailed making step of micro motor is multi-user MEMS processing procedure (the Multi-User MEMS Processes that adopts MEMSCAP company to be developed; MUMPs).
Micro-holding type actuator is quite extensive on using, and manner of execution is also a lot, and existing many people delivered the research about micro-holding type actuator on the international periodical, for example:
The micro-holding type actuator notion that people such as Junqi Zhu at first propose, form its primary structure by polysilicon, active principle is to utilize the electrostatic force of vertical direction to make actuating dull and stereotyped (Plate) and axle bush (Bushing) friction bottom surface insulating barrier produce horizontal actuation force, and different micro-holding type actuator arrangement modes can be formed orthoscopic actuator or stepping rotation motor.
People such as Terunobu Akiyama advance distance relation by the velocity of displacement of experimental observation micro-holding type actuator and input voltage frequency relation, input voltage peak value and each walking and activate dull and stereotyped length and distance relation is advanced in each walking, and micro-holding type actuator is connected in a flexible rod member, utilize the power output of the deflection (Buckling) of flexible rod member, and draw the relation of input voltage peak value and power output with the measurement micro-holding type actuator.
People such as P.Langlet are with the driver of micro-holding type actuator as the X/Y precisely locating platform, and with the location of this platform application in the optical fiber coupling, the process experimental result obtains the influence of different actuating flat geometry to the micro-holding type actuator qualification rate.
People such as Mita are fixed in a plurality of micro-holding type actuators of turning one's coat and are formed array on the glass baseplate with special combination technology (Boading), form the micro-holding type actuator conveyer belt.
Yamato Fukuta is to reinvent shape technology (Reshaping technology) with oneself assembling (Self-assembling) device of micro-holding type actuator as three-dimensional structure.
People such as Lin import micro-holding type actuator with guide rail with voltage, and make it promote XYZ three-dimensional platform, mirror surface and little Fresnel (Fresnel) lens, form free space (Free-space) micro-optic laboratory table.
People such as Ryan J.Linderman form 188 micro-holding type actuators array and connect the object that will activate by special combination technology (Boading), import voltage with little chain again.On the other hand the micro-holding type actuator array is fixed on the ceramic wafer with Flip chip bonding (covering crystalline substance) technology, and comes the resulting best dull and stereotyped length that activates of proof theory derivation with experiment.
Paul E.Kladitis with circular arrangement, forms the rotation motor of diameter 520 μ m with micro-holding type actuator, and the silicon blade erected is fixed on this motor, can be applicable to promote microfluid.
Up to the present, all documents all can't accurately measure out the strength that micro-holding type actuator can export and the permissible range of displacement, the life-span that can operate and mode and operating voltage, owing to need to integrate multinomial highly difficult key technology, its reason of inference is the characteristic of micro-holding type actuator is still failed on top of, and its possible cause is:
(1) suitable electrode layer and insulating barrier are not easy to make.
(2) size design does not reach optimization as yet, comprises shape and the hole size of depth-to-width ratio, beam (cantilever beam) ... or the like.
(3) driving voltage descends.
Above-mentioned each reason all is enough to influence the performance of whole micro-holding type actuator, changing any one parameter all is challenge to the integration of whole processing procedure, developing complete processing procedure integration step and carry out theory and experiment optimization, is the bottleneck of difficult breakthrough of present micro-holding type actuator.
As shown in Figure 1, operating principle for micro-holding type actuator, when actuating dull and stereotyped 10 and axle bush 11 have capacitive structure to form, can in actuating dull and stereotyped 10, obtain electrostatic force, in the time of on being added on actuating dull and stereotyped 10 outside the periodic electrostatic force of tool, can cause actuating dull and stereotyped 10 on substrate 12, to form step motion, promptly describe when adding the stepwise operation of square wave between actuating dull and stereotyped 10 and substrate 12 as (b) among the figure, (c), (d).
When adding a positive bias, activating dull and stereotyped 10 is attracted by substrate 12 because of electrostatic force, but activate dull and stereotyped 10 the place aheads and have axle bush 11, its whole flat area can't be adsorbed on the insulating barrier (insulator) 13 fully, therefore have electric charge and be temporary in the actuating dull and stereotyped 10, and then cause actuating dull and stereotyped 10 to have elasticity tension.
When voltage descended, this elasticity tension was released immediately, made that activating dull and stereotyped 10 returns to the original form, and when release voltage, because axle bush 11 contacts with insulating barrier 13 always, can produce frictional force and allow whole actuating dull and stereotyped 10 advance.
When adding a back bias voltage again, activate dull and stereotyped 10 and also can be produced the action that repeats, make to activate dull and stereotyped 10 continuous actions on insulating barrier 13 by substrate 12 absorption.
The action that activates flat board 10 can be controlled by applying pulse, and speed and pulse frequency are directly proportional, Δ x value shown in the figure may be defined to the displacement that applied voltage causes, and this Δ x value is not only relevant with voltage amplitude also relevant with the height of length that activates flat board 10 and axle bush 11.

Embodiment
The present invention relates to a kind of method and structure thereof of making low driving voltage micro-holding type actuator, with complete and stable fabrication steps and the method for ultralow resistance silicon substrate material fit, can reduce the driving voltage of micro-holding type actuator, and control axle bush width is no more than 1.5 μ m, below is that conjunction with figs. describes innovation processing procedure of the present invention in detail:
As shown in Figure 2, the present invention includes ultralow resistance silicon substrate 20, insulating barrier 21, main structure layer 30 and upper and lower electrode 41,42 at least.
In order to prevent that viscid effect (sticing effect) from producing, the present invention makes miniature prominent point (Dimple) 31 especially below main structure layer 30 viscid to prevent, detailed making flow process as shown in Figure 3:
(a) on a ultralow resistance silicon substrate 20, deposit low stress nitride silicon thin film (Si3N4) as insulating barrier 21 with Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD), and after the first road micro-photographing process, with inductance coupling high formula electric paste etching machine (ICP) etching isolation layer 21, to expose the bottom electrode precalculated position 25 of ultralow resistance silicon substrate 20.
(b) with plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method (PECVD) on insulating barrier 20 sedimentary phosphor silex glass film (PSG-0) as ground floor low stress sacrifice layer 22, and, on ground floor low stress sacrifice layer 22, define anchor (anchor), miniature prominent point (dimple) precalculated position 23 and three patterns of axle bush (bushing) simultaneously with inductance coupling high formula electric paste etching machine (ICP) etching with the second road micro-photographing process.
(c) with plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method (PECVD) on ground floor low stress sacrifice layer 22 sedimentary phosphor silex glass film (PSG-1) as second layer low stress sacrifice layer 24, the main purpose of deposition second layer low stress sacrifice layer 24 is to revise the axle bush width, because the live width minimum resolution of exposure bench is 2 μ m, it is 1.5 μ m that but co-operating member must have minimum feature, therefore utilizes this one step to dwindle the minimum feature limit that board has no idea to reach.
(d) the 3rd road micro-photographing process defines the pattern in anchor and bottom electrode precalculated position 25 with inductance coupling high formula electric paste etching machine (ICP) etching.
(e) on second layer low stress sacrifice layer 24, deposit low stress polysilicon membrane (Poly-Si) as main structure layer 30 with Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD), and chip is inserted horizontal boiler tube carry out phosphorous diffusion and high annealing processing procedure.
(f) the 4th road micro-photographing process defines the pattern of main structure layer 30 with inductance coupling high formula electric paste etching machine (ICP) etching.
(g), define the pattern of top electrode 41 and bottom electrode 42 with wet etching with electron beam evaporation plating machine evaporation chromium/gold, and at the 5th road micro-photographing process.
(h) element is placed buffered hydrofluoric acid (BOE) carry out Wet-type etching, and first and second low stress sacrifice layer 22,24 of etching, to discharge main structure layer 30.
As with sweep electron microscope (Scanning Electron Microscope; SEM) take the micro-holding type actuator component structure, just the element suspension structure after discharging as can be seen, because use the low stress polysilicon membrane as the main structure layer, make the planarization of element quite good, can not produce because membrane stress does not match and causes the situation of component failure.
As shown in Figure 4, micro-holding type actuator element of the present invention is after dynamic characteristic test, find that it pastes end voltage (snap voltage) and presents linear relationship with deflection voltage (priming voltage), and conform to predicting the outcome of external simulation, identical with world institute of well-known R﹠D team Simulation result approximate trend, but the driving voltage of micro-holding type actuator element of the present invention is obviously than existing micro-holding type actuator element is much lower in the world.
Again as shown in Figure 5, if inquire at the designed multiple different relations that activate writing board shape and driving voltage of the present invention, test result is found:
When the actuating flat board is triangle (Triangle), its driving voltage is approximately than the high 1~2V of driving voltage of rectangular flat, but triangle flat plate has the significant advantage that more can not shorten the life-span because of stored charge, and triangle flat plate also has short driving time of delay simultaneously.On the other hand, the tail end of rectangular flat not only can reduce stored charge if can add suitable etch-hole design, also can reduce driving voltage simultaneously.
For another shown in Figure 6, if voltage at the bottom of the subsides of more ultralow resistance chip and general chip can clearly be found:
Reducing driving voltage can do correction from bottom electrode (substrate) material of element, and when the present invention integrated at processing procedure, the substrate that utilizes two batches of different resistances was found through after the identical fabrication steps as bottom electrode:
Low-resistance substrate can obtain reducing than common substrate the driving voltage of about 5~6V, and this result and inventor's prediction meets fully.In the future if cooperate the adjustment of top electrode metal material again, expectation can reduce about 10V driving voltage and make it reach voltage quasi position below 10 volts, this helps following micro-holding type actuator with extremely and applies to all kinds of mass production products, for example: the structure assembling of the structure assembling of mini-fan motor, little radiating module, structure assembling, micro sprue system and the low-light communication switch of little assembly of exerting oneself.
In sum, the present invention has possessed above every advantage really, also has the obvious effect enhancement than commonly using structure.
The above only is a preferable enforcement kenel of the present invention, and the equivalent structure that all application specification of the present invention, claims or accompanying drawing are done changes, and all should be included in the scope of patent protection of the present invention.
