Embodiment Construction

[0033] In order to make the above-mentioned features and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, the following specific embodiments are described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0034] In this embodiment, the method of the present invention is used to etch the tungsten-based alloy, and the steps are as follows:

[0035] Step 1: Prepare hard mask layer pattern such as image 3 As shown, first, a layer of hard mask 2 (thickness 50nm-10μm) is deposited on a tungsten alloy substrate 1 (thickness 200μm-6mm) by sputtering, thermal evaporation and other methods. The tungsten alloy can be pure tungsten, tungsten carbide, tungsten-molybdenum alloy, tungsten-copper alloy, tungsten-rhenium alloy or hard alloy. The adhesion between the hard mask 2 and the tungsten alloy substrate 1 should be strong enough, commonly used are Al thin film, Ni thin film, Ti thin film and so on. Then, spin-coat the first layer of photoresist 3 on the surface of th...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for improving the etching uniformity of a high aspect ratio tungsten alloy, the steps comprising: growing a hard mask on a tungsten alloy substrate; spin-coating a first layer of photoresist on the hard mask; , form the first layer of photoresist pattern; etch the hard mask according to the first layer of photoresist pattern to form a hard mask pattern; spin coat the second layer of photoresist, and form the second layer through photolithography and development Photoresist pattern; perform the first tungsten alloy etching according to the second layer of photoresist pattern, and the depth of etching on the tungsten alloy substrate in the area with a small opening area reaches the load effect amount; remove the remaining second layer of photoresist Resist, perform the second tungsten alloy etching according to the above hard mask pattern, so as to etch to the same depth on the tungsten alloy substrate in the larger and smaller opening area.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), and in particular relates to a method for improving the etching uniformity of tungsten alloys with high aspect ratios. Background technique [0002] In the processing and manufacturing of MEMS devices, single crystal silicon materials are usually used as traditional structural substrate materials, and single crystal silicon materials have some inherent defects, such as high brittleness and poor impact resistance; compared with metal materials, their conductivity is poor, and their resistivity is relatively low. Higher; thermal stability is relatively poor, and Young's modulus will change significantly when it exceeds 600 ° C, which is not suitable for application under high temperature conditions, which affects the application range of the device. [0003] Metal tungsten material is the metal with the highest melting point in nature (3410°C), and it has the charact...
