Embodiment 1

[0015] A new type of Fabry-Perot tunable filter disclosed in Embodiment 1 of the present invention adopts a double-folded cantilever beam structure, and etches the cantilever beam to form a rectangular groove. The movable thin layer refers to the Voltage generates electrostatic attraction, and moves up and down under the action of electrostatic attraction. The new Fabry-Perot tunable filter with this structure can obtain a displacement of 0.88μm at 8V, and its maximum stress is only 8.49MPa when the displacement is 0.5μm, and the mirror flatness error is only 0.9 nm. Therefore, the new Fabry-Perot filter with a rectangular slot cantilever beam can well meet the low-voltage drive, the mirror surface is flat, and it always maintains good filtering characteristics in the tunable range.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of infrared detection, and relates to a novel Fabry-Perot tunable filter. Monocrystalline silicon is used as a substrate, and a reflecting layer formed by alternately depositing a metal electrode and germanium / silicon monoxide is plated on the upper part of the substrate; and an antireflection layer formed by a silicon monoxide film is plated at the lower part of the substrate. Meanwhile, monocrystalline silicon is adopted as a movable thin layer, and the upper portion of the movable thin layer is plated with an anti-reflection layer composed of a silicon monoxide thin film; and a reflecting layer formed by alternately depositing germanium / silicon monoxide is plated on the lower part of the movable film. A double-folding cantilever beam structure is adopted, and a cantilever beam is etched to form a rectangular groove, so that low-voltage driving can be well met, a mirror surface is smooth, and a good filtering characteristic is always kept in a tunable range. Moreover, an air cavity is adopted as a tuning cavity, the depth of the cavity is 2.5 microns, and selective transmission of a 3-5-micron waveband spectrum can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of infrared detection, and relates to a novel Fabry-Perot tunable filter, which adopts a double-folded cantilever beam structure, and etches the cantilever beam to form rectangular slots. Background technique [0002] Infrared spectroscopy is a powerful analytical tool because many substances can be reliably distinguished based on their unique absorption spectra. Traditional infrared spectrometers are complex in structure, expensive and limited in portability. Applications such as medical diagnosis and healthcare (e.g. detection of gases in human breath), detection of hazardous substances (e.g. flammable and toxic gases, detection of explosives), process monitoring in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, etc. There is a strong demand for spectrometers with high reliability and portability. Therefore, the miniature tunable infrared spectrometer has always been a hot spot in scientific research and market deman...
