Abstract

The invention discloses a lithium tantalate micro-patterning method based on reactive ion etching, belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, and particularly relates to lithium tantalate crystal micro-patterning, so as to solve the problem that patterns are easy to damage due to large stress among materials of each layer, and the method comprises the following steps: sequentially plating aTi metal mask and a Cr metal mask on the surface of photoresist; preparing a metal mask pattern on the surface of the lithium tantalate substrate by using a stripping method; carrying out reactive ion etching on the lithium tantalate substrate with the prepared metal mask pattern by adopting fluorine-based plasma; carrying out physical bombardment on the lithium tantalate substrate for 30 secondsto 2 minutes by adopting argon plasma so as to remove high-boiling-point non-volatile substances such as lithium fluoride and fluotantalate formed on the surface of the sample; and repeating the etching step until the micro-patterning of the lithium tantalate substrate is completed. According to the method, the micron-scale depth pattern is manufactured on the lithium tantalate substrate, the purposes that the inclination angle of the side wall of the pattern is large and the surface of the groove is smooth are achieved, a high selection ratio of a metal mask is obtained, and the etching depth is large.
