Abstract

The invention discloses an integrated wafer-level vacuum packaged MEMS device and a manufacturing method thereof. The manufacturing method comprises the following steps: forming an MEMS structure on a monocrystalline silicon wafer substrate; forming a first sacrificial layer on the MEMS structure; forming a patterned electrode layer on the first sacrificial layer; forming a second sacrificial layer on the electrode layer; forming a sealed cavity on the monocrystalline silicon wafer substrate located below the MEMS structure and sealing the cavity with a third sacrificial layer; allowing the second and third sacrificial layers to be patterned; forming a cover layer on the third sacrificial layer; allowing the cover layer to be patterned and removing the first, second and third sacrificial layers to enable the MEMS structure to be released; forming a sealing structure on the cover layer; forming a metal lead wire on the sealing structure; and carrying out low temperature annealing. According to the invention, the MEMS structure is a monocrystalline silicon material and is anchored on the upper part of a packaging structure, so influence of the stress of the substrate on the device is reduced; a gap between an electrode and the MEMS structure is fairly small, so energy loss of the device is reduced, and low cost and high quality of the MEMS device are obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to semiconductor manufacturing technology, in particular to an integrated wafer-level vacuum-packaged MEMS device and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS for short) refers to a micro-device or system that can be mass-produced and integrates micro-mechanisms, micro-sensors, micro-actuators, and signal processing and control circuits. MEMS device manufacturing technology combines a variety of micro-fabrication technologies, opening up a new technical field and industry. Microsensors made with MEMS technology have very broad application prospects in aviation, aerospace, automobiles, military affairs and almost all fields that people come into contact with. [0003] The most common MEMS manufacturing method is to use silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers to manufacture MEMS devices. At this time, the sacrificial layer between the MEMS structure and the substrate is the sil...
