新型集成压力与温度MEMS传感器

本文提出一种MEMS传感器,单片集成温度和气压的检测单元。该传感器采用SOI硅片的上层硅作为压阻薄膜,因此各管芯的薄膜厚度有良好的一致性。传统的背面体硅腐蚀方法未被采用,因为碱性溶液腐蚀体硅会在<111>面自停止,形成57.4°的斜坡,从而增大管芯面积,取而代之的是ICP深硅刻蚀。片上集成两个PN结,结区面积呈比例,可以实现温度检测功能。测试表明在-40-100℃之间都有良好的线性度,PN结的离子注入工艺与压阻注入工艺完全兼容,减少了工艺成本。     

A novel dual-functional MEMS sensor integrating both pressure and temperature units

This paper proposes a novel miniature dual-functional sensor integrating both pressure and temperature sensitive units on a single chip.The device wafer of SOI is used as a pizeoresistive diaphragm which features excellent consistency in thickness.The conventional anisotropic wet etching has been abandoned,while ICP etching has been employed to etch out the reference cave to minimize the area of individual device in the way that the 57.4°slope has been eliminated.As a result,the average cost of the singl...
