The invention relates to a micro-
inductor with a planar core
helical structure, and a preparation method thereof, which belong to the microelectronic technical field. The micro-
inductor comprises a substrate, a
magnetic core material, an insulating material, a coil with a planar
helical structure, pins and lead wires, wherein, the coil with the planar
helical structure is wrapped by two
layers of core material and separated by
polyimide; and a central pin is connected with external pins. The process is as follows:
sputtering of a layer of Cr, whirl
coating, photoetching, developing,
etching and
overlay alignment symbols making; bonding of the
magnetic core material, whirl
coating, photoetching, developing,
etching of the
magnetic core material; fling,
drying and solidifying of
polyimide, and
polishing;
sputtering, whirl
coating, photoetching, developing,
galvanization, and manufacturing of the coil with a planar helical structure, lead wires and pins; fling,
drying and solidifying of
polyimide, and
polishing;
sputtering of a layer of Ti, whirl coating, photoetching, developing and
etching; and bonding of the magnetic core material, whirl coating, photoetching, developing, and etching of the magnetic core material. The method greatly reduces the high-frequency loss of the micro-
inductor and effectively improves the high-frequency property thereof.
