Abstract

The invention relates to a soft support cantilever beam type silicon micro-piezoelectric microphone chip which comprises a silicon substrate with a square conical hole which is small at the top and big at the bottom in the center, a square compound vibration membrane which consists of a thermal oxidation membrane layer, a first silicon nitride membrane layer, a silicon dioxide membrane layer and asecond silicon nitride membrane layer is covered on the front surface of the silicon substrate, and a first silicon nitride mask layer and a second silicon nitride mask layer with square holes in thecenters thereof are sequentially covered on the back surface; three of four sides of the square compound vibration membrane respectively are etched to form a vertical narrow slot penetrating the square compound vibration membrane, and the vertical projection of each vertical narrow slot is positioned on the inner side of the edge of the square hole in the front surface of the silicon substrate; alower electrode, a piezoelectric membrane and an upper electrode are sequentially deposited on the square compound vibration membrane; one side of the upper electrode is coincided with or near to theside without the narrow slot of the square vibration membrane; and a polyimide membrane which is patterned is deposited on various parts positioned on the front surface of the silicon substrate. Thecantilever beam structure can prevent sound leakage phenomenon and has the advantages of high sensitivity, anti-sound leakage and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of silicon micro-piezoelectric microphones, in particular to a silicon micro-piezoelectric microphone chip with an anti-sound leakage soft support cantilever beam and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Silicon micro-microphones mainly include piezoelectric and capacitive types. Silicon micro-piezoelectric microphones are composed of piezoelectric layers, vibrating membranes, and metal electrodes. Compared with the silicon microcapacitor microphone, the piezoelectric microphone has a simple structure and does not require a bias voltage; it has low impedance and can be used as a transmitter to achieve both reception and transmission; it can be applied to miniature microphones, ultrasonic imaging, and hydrophones. But because the microphone is vibrating, the sensitivity of the microphone is relatively low due to the small strain of the piezoelectric layer. In order to increase the strain of the ...
