Abstract

The invention discloses a silicon carbide-based AlScN template for a high-frequency and high-performance SAW device. The silicon carbide-based AlScN template is of a multi-layer structure, monocrystalline silicon carbide is used as a substrate, and a SiO2 layer, a metal passivation layer, an AlN seed layer, a low-concentration Sc-doped AlScN layer and a high-concentration Sc-doped AlScN layer are sequentially grown on a polished surface of the silicon carbide. By adopting the preparation method disclosed by the invention, the AlScN film with high crystal quality, high phase velocity, low surface roughness, high temperature stability and high Sc concentration can be prepared. The silicon carbide substrate provides higher phase velocity; the SiO2 layer makes up the defect of poor temperature stability of the AlScN film with high Sc concentration; the AlN seed layer is small in lattice mismatch with AlScN, so that the crystallization quality is improved; the AlScN layer with the low Sc concentration prevents the Sc element from being separated out in advance, and lattice mismatch is reduced; and the AlScN layer with high Sc concentration provides good piezoelectric property. The multilayer structure can be better applied to bulk acoustic wave and surface acoustic wave devices.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor material preparation, in particular to an aluminum scandium nitrogen template structure and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of 5G communication technology, the addition of 5G frequency bands, the increase in the number of original frequency bands, and the in-depth application of MIMO and CA technologies, the demand for filters is increasing, and the requirements for the preparation of RF front-ends are also increasing. Therefore, it is necessary to press Materials with higher electrical properties are used to prepare filter devices SAW / BAW. [0003] The core of preparing high-performance RF filters lies in the characteristics of the filter substrate piezoelectric material and its crystalline quality. Compared with traditional ZnO, PZT, LT / LN and other piezoelectric materials, AlN thin film materials have excellent physical properties such as ...
