DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] The present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the related content of the present disclosure, but not to limit the present disclosure. In addition, it should be noted that, for the convenience of description, only the parts related to the related content of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings. It should be noted that the dimensions and sizes of components in the drawings are not to scale and the size of some components may be highlighted for clarity.

[0040] It should be noted that the embodiments in the present disclosure and the features of the embodiments may be combined with each other without conflict. The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0041] A cavity structure of a bulk acoustic resonator is provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 2 is a top view of a bulk acoustic resonator. The cavity structure includes a substrate and a cavity 201 formed on the substrate. A support layer is arranged on the substrate to form the cavity 201 in a surrounding manner, a release channel 401 in communication with the cavity 201 is formed above the substrate in the same layer with the cavity 201, and the release channel 401 extends, in parallel to the substrate, in a peripheral area of the cavity 201. Correspondingly, a bulk acoustic resonator is further provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 3a, the resonator includes a bottom electrode layer 601, a piezoelectric layer 701 and a top electrode layer 801 stacked in sequence and formed above the cavity 201, where the bottom electrode layer 601 is spanned on the support layer 301. The resonator further includes the above cavity structure. In a preferred embodiment, the material of the substrate 101 includes Si, SiC, sapphire, spinel, or the like, and the material of the support layer 301 includes Si. The release channel 401 criss-crossed in the peripheral area of the cavity 201 and in communication to the cavity 201 may be used to release the sacrificial material in the cavity 201 without affecting the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer of the resonator, thereby improving the performance of the resonator and avoiding weakening the performance of the resonator due to damage to the structure of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer when manufacturing a release hole (a hole in an AlN film layer) in the conventional process. The release liquid for the sacrificial material may flow into the cavity 201 from the release channel 401 to release the cavity 201.

[0042] in a specific embodiment, the release channel 401 includes a first release channel 402 extending outward from the cavity 201 and a second release channel 403 extending among cavities 201 of multiple resonators to be in communication with the first release channel 402. The first release channel 402 and the second release channel 403 are criss-crossed around the cavities 201 of multiple resonators to ensure that the release liquid can flow from the first release channel 402 and the second release channel 403 into the cavity 201 to quickly sacrifice the sacrificial material and to ensure that the stress uniformity of the piezoelectric layer 701 is not affected. In a preferred embodiment, the criss-crossed release channels 401 may be designed based on the distribution of the resonators, thereby eliminating the need to manufacture the release hole and simplifying the process for manufacturing the resonator.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, a projection of the first release channel 402 and/or the second release channel 403 on the substrate 101 is of a shape of a trapezoid, an arc or a rectangle. The shape of the projection, when viewed from the top view, includes, but is not limited to, a trapezoid, an arc, or a rectangle. By changing the shape of the first release channel 402 and/or the second release channel 403 around the electrode layer, the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 covering on the first release channel 402 and/or the second release channel 403 is adjusted, thereby effectively improving the performance of the resonator. Since the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer affects a resonance area above the cavity 201, the performance of the resonator can be improved by adjusting the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer.

[0044] In a specific embodiment, a filter is formed by multiple resonators being connected, and a groove 501 in communication with the release channel 401 is formed on the substrate 101 in a peripheral area of the filter. One end of all of the release channels 401 may be in communication to the groove 501, and the other end may be in communication to the cavity 201, thereby avoiding weakening the performance of the resonator due to damage to the structure of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer when manufacturing a release hole (a hole in an AlN film layer). In a preferred embodiment, the groove 501 is a channel without a film covering on top. The release liquid may be directly injected from the groove 501 and then circulated from the release channel 401 into the cavity 201. Therefore, in the present disclosure, it is not necessary to manufacture a release hole around the electrode layer, and the cavity 201 can be released by communicating the internal criss-crossed release channels 401 with the groove 501, In other embodiments, other methods other than the groove 501 may be selected to inject the release liquid into the release channel 401 to release the cavity 201.

[0045] In a specific embodiment, each of the release channel 401 is a channel extends between the substrate 101 and the piezoelectric layer 701. Different from the use of the release hole extending longitudinally through the electrode layer and the piezoelectric layer to the substrate in the conventional technology, the release channel 401 extends laterally between the substrate 101 and the piezoelectric layer 701, so that the release liquid can flow through the release channel 401. In addition, the cavity 201 is also formed on the substrate 101. In this case, the bottom surface of the release channel 401 and the bottom surface of the cavity 201 are flush, therefore, the release liquid can flow to the release channel 401 and the cavity 201 more quickly and conveniently through the fluidity.

[0046] In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, a release hole 901 is arranged in an area away from the bottom electrode layer and the top electrode layer of the resonator, where the release hole 901 is in communication with at least one of the release channel 401. In terms of too many criss-crossed release channels 401, the release hole 901 is added, and a release efficiency of the cavity 201 can be improved by injecting the release liquid into the release hole 901, so that the cavity 201 can be released more quickly. In addition, the release hole 901 is formed in the area away from the bottom electrode layer and the top electrode layer of the resonator, which will not affect the stress of the piezoelectric layer around the electrode layer and not weaken the performance of the resonator. In a preferred embodiment, the distances between the release hole 901 and the bottom electrode layer and the top electrode layer of the resonator are equal to or greater than 5 μm. The release hole 901 manufactured at the distances will not affect the stress of the piezoelectric layer around the electrode layer.

[0047] In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, a first electrode connection portion 1001 is arranged on the supporting layer and the piezoelectric layer around the resonator. The resonator may be electrically connected to the outside through the first electrode connection portion 1001. In this case, the top of the first electrode connection portion 1001 remains flush with the top of the resonator. In addition, a second electrode connection portion 1002 is arranged on the substrate around the resonator, and the second electrode connection portion 1002 extends from the piezoelectric layer 701 to the substrate in a stepped shape. The stepped second electrode connection portion 1002 makes the electrical connection with the outside more convenient, and can be positioned accurately at the stepped position during external connection, thereby improving the positioning accuracy. Moreover, the substrate under the second electrode connection portion 1002 is in communication with the substrate under the groove 501, and the supporting layer and the piezoelectric layer under the second electrode connection portion 1002 may be simultaneously etched to be formed at the same time with the groove 501. A ball mounting process may be performed on both the first connection portion 1001 and the second connection portion 1002 for subsequent device packaging. Electrodes electrically connected between the resonators are arranged on the support layer, the piezoelectric layer and the release channel. The stress of the electrode layer can be released to a certain extent by setting the release channel 401, so that electrical signals can be transmitted normally.

[0048] In a case that resonators are manufactured into an interconnected structure, when there is no release channel in a middle part where the two resonators are connected, cross-sectional views taken along A1-A2 as shown in FIG. 2 are shown in FIG. 3a and FIG. 3b, where FIG. 3a shows a case where the resonators are connected in parallel and FIG. 3b shows a case where the resonators are connected in series. As shown in FIG. 3a and FIG. 3b, the groove 501 and the cavity 201 are formed in the same layer. In a case that there is a release channel in the middle part where the two resonators are connected, cross-sectional views taken along B1-B2 as shown in FIG. 2 are shown in FIGS. 4a and FIG. 4b, where FIG. 4a shows a case where the resonators are connected in parallel, and FIG. 4b shows a case where the resonators are connected in series. As shown in FIG. 4a and FIG. 4b, the groove 501, the cavity 201 and the second release channel 403 are formed in the same layer.

[0049] In correspondence to the cavity structure of the bulk acoustic resonator according to the above embodiments, a process for manufacturing a cavity structure of a bulk acoustic resonator is further provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 5, the process includes the following steps S1 to S5.

[0050] In step S1, a patterned support layer is manufactured on a substrate to form a cavity surrounded by the support layer and a release channel in communication with the cavity is formed above the substrate in the same layer with the cavity, where the release channel extends, in parallel to the substrate, in a peripheral area of the cavity.

[0051] In step S2, the cavity and the release channel are filled with a sacrificial material.

[0052] in step S3, a bottom electrode layer is manufactured on the support layer and the sacrificial material, where the bottom electrode layer is spanned on the support layer and covers the cavity.

[0053] In step S4, a piezoelectric layer and a top electrode layer are manufactured on the bottom electrode layer.

[0054] In step S5, the sacrificial material is removed.

[0055] In a specific embodiment, FIG. 6a to FIG. 6h and FIG. 3a each is a schematic structural diagram of the process for manufacturing the cavity structure of the bulk acoustic resonator. Step S1 further includes patterning the support layer 301 in a peripheral area of a filter formed by the multiple resonators being connected, to form a groove 501 in communication with the release channel 401. The groove 501 may be in communication with all the release channel 401, thereby avoiding weakening the performance of the resonator due to damage to the structure of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer when manufacturing a release hole (a hole in an AlN film layer). In other embodiments, other methods other than the groove 501 may be selected to inject the release liquid into the release channel 401 to release the cavity 201.

[0056] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6a and FIG. 6b, step S1 specifically includes: depositing a support layer 301 on the substrate 101 through a PVD process, and patterning the support layer 301 through photolithography and etching processes. Si may be selected as the material of the support layer 301, where the material of the substrate 101 includes Si/SiC/sapphire/spinel or the like. The PVD-grown support layer 301 has a thickness of 1.5 μm to 3 μm. The support layer 301 is deposited above the substrate 101 by the processes to form the groove 501, the release channel 401 and the cavity 201 in a patterning manner, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, Si is used as the support layer 301, PSG is used as the sacrificial material, and HF or BOE is used as an etchant (a release liquid) of the sacrificial material. The selection of materials will not affect the electrode layer and the piezoelectric layer 701, and the process is simple, and the material is universal and relatively inexpensive, so the process has higher cost performance and process compatibility. In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6c, the step S1 specifically includes: forming a patterned support layer 301′ on the substrate 101 through an etching process. Since the groove 501, the release channel 401 and the cavity 201 are formed in a patterning manner by etching directly on the substrate 101 through the process, no deposition process is required, and the process is more simplified. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, Si may be selected as the material of the substrate 101, Si may be etched to form a support layer 301′ made of the same material as Si. In this case, PSG is selected as the sacrificial material, and HF or BOE is selected as the etchant (the release liquid) for the sacrificial material. The selection of materials will not affect the electrode layer and the piezoelectric layer 701, and the process is simple, the material is universal and relatively inexpensive, so the process has higher cost performance and process compatibility.

[0057] In step S2, as shown in FIG. 6d, the sacrificial material 202 is grown in the groove 501, the release channel 401 and the cavity 201, followed by CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) polishing. The sacrificial material 202 is PSG (Moped SiO.sub.2), and the release channel 401 criss-crossed in a peripheral area of the cavity 201 and in communication to the cavity 201 may be used to release the sacrificial material 202 in the cavity 201 without affecting the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer of the resonator, thereby improving the performance of the resonator, and avoiding weakening the performance of the resonator due to damage to the structure the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer when manufacturing a release hole (a hole on the AlN film layer) in the conventional process. The release liquid used fir the sacrificial material 202 may flow into the cavity 201 from the release channel 401 to release the cavity 201.

[0058] In a specific embodiment, the release channel 401 includes a first release channel 402 extending outward from the cavity 201 and a second release channel 403 extending among cavities 201 of multiple resonators to be in communication with the first release channel 402. The first release channel 402 and the second release channel 403 are criss-crossed in a peripheral area of cavities 201 of multiple resonators to ensure that the release liquid can flow from the first release channel 402 and the second release channel 403 to the cavity 201 to quickly scarify the sacrificial material 202, and to ensure that the stress uniformity of the piezoelectric layer 701 will not be affected. In a preferred embodiment, the criss-crossed release channels 401 may be designed based on the distribution of the resonators. In this case, there is no need to manufacture the release hole and the process for manufacturing the resonator can be simplified.

[0059] In a specific embodiment, a projection of the first release channel 402 and/or the second release channel 403 on the substrate 101 is of a shape of a trapezoid, an arc or a

[0060] rectangle. The shape of the projection, when viewed from the top view, includes, but is not limited to, a trapezoid, an arc, or a rectangle. By changing the shape of the first release channel 402 and/or the second release channel 403 around the electrode layer, the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 covering on the first release channel 402 and/or the second release channel 403 is adjusted, thereby effectively improving the performance of the resonator. Since the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer will affect a resonance area above the cavity 201, the performance of the resonator can be improved by adjusting the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer.

[0061] In a specific embodiment, a filter is formed by multiple resonators being connected, and a groove 501 in communication with the release channel 401 is formed on the support layer 301 in a peripheral area of the filter. One end of all of the release channels 401 may be in communication to the groove 501, and the other end may be in communication to the cavity 201, thereby avoiding weakening the performance of the resonator due to damage to the structure of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer when manufacturing a release hole (a hole in an AlN film layer). In a preferred embodiment, the groove 501 is a channel without a film covering on top. The release liquid may be directly injected from the groove 501 and then circulated from the release channel 401 into the cavity 201. Therefore, in the present disclosure, it is not necessary to manufacture a release hole around the electrode layer, and the cavity 201 can be released by communicating the internal criss-crossed release channels 401 with the groove 501.

[0062] In a specific embodiment, the release channel 401 is a channel extends between the substrate 101 and the piezoelectric layer 701. Different from the use of the release hole extending longitudinally through the electrode layer and the piezoelectric layer to the substrate in the conventional technology, the release channel 401 extends laterally between the substrate 101 and the piezoelectric layer 701, so that the release liquid can flow through the release channel 401. In addition, the cavity 201 is also formed on the substrate 101. In this case, the bottom surface of the release channel 401 and the bottom surface of the cavity 201 are flush, therefore, the release liquid can flow to the release channel 401 and the cavity 201 more quickly and conveniently through the fluidity.

[0063] In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6e, the bottom electrode layer 601 is manufactured by PVD, photolithography and etching processes in sequence. The material of the bottom electrode layer 601 includes Mo. As shown in FIG. 6f, the piezoelectric layer 701 is manufactured by PVD, photolithography and etching processes in sequence. The material of the piezoelectric layer 701 includes AlN, and an etching area of the piezoelectric layer is an area above the groove 501, as shown in FIG. 6g. As shown in FIG. 6h, the top electrode layer 801 is manufactured by PVD, photolithography and etching processes in sequence. The material of the top electrode layer 801 includes Mo.

[0064] In a specific embodiment, S5 further includes: forming a release hole 901 on the support layer 301 and the piezoelectric layer 701 in an area away from the bottom electrode layer 601 and the top electrode layer 801 of the resonator, where the release hole 901 extends downward to the substrate 101 and is in communication with at least one of the release channel 401. In terms of too many criss-crossed release channels 401, the release hole 901 is added, and a release efficiency of the cavity 201 can be improved by injecting the release liquid into the release hole 901, so that the cavity 201 can he released more quickly. In addition, the release hole 901 is thrilled in the area away from the bottom electrode layer 601 and the top electrode layer 801 of the resonator, which will not affect the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer, and not weaken the performance of the resonator. In a preferred embodiment, the distances between the release hole 901 and the bottom electrode layer 601 and the top electrode layer 801 of the resonator are equal to or greater than 5 μm. The release hole 901 manufactured at the distances will not affect the stress of the piezoelectric layer 701 around the electrode layer.

[0065] Finally, as shown in FIG. 3a, by adding the release liquid into the groove 501 or the release hole 901, the release liquid flows into the release channel 401, and finally flows into the cavity 201 to release the cavity 201.

[0066] A cavity structure of a bulk acoustic resonator and a process for manufacturing the same are disclosed in the present disclosure. By manufacturing, on the support layer, the release channel in communication with the cavity, the groove in communication with the release channel is arranged in a peripheral area of a filter formed by multiple resonators being connected, where the criss-crossed release channels may be designed based on the distribution of the resonators. In addition, there is no need to manufacture a release hole, which simplifies the manufacturing process of the resonator, thereby avoiding weakening the performance of the resonator due to damage to the structure of the piezoelectric layer around the electrode layer when manufacturing a release hole (a hole in an AlN film layer), The performance of the resonator can be improved by designing a shape of the release channel around the electrode layer and adjusting the stress of the piezoelectric layer around the electrode layer. Therefore, the cavity can be released without damaging the structure of the piezoelectric layer, and the stress of the piezoelectric layer can be adjusted through the design of the cavity structure.

Changes or substitutions may be easily envisaged by those familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present disclosure, and should be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure.
