Problems solved by technology

The air-gap structure can not only improve the structural stability, but also reduce the difficulty of the production process. It can be used to make micro pressure sensors, but the thickness of the substrate under the cavity of the conventional air-gap structure will reduce its sensitivity to pressure.

Abstract

The invention discloses a pressure sensor based on an FBAR structure, and relates to the technical field of sensors, the pressure sensor comprises a substrate, the top of the substrate is provided with a groove, and the surface of the substrate is covered with an insulating layer; the insulating layer and the groove in the top of the substrate enclose to form an air chamber; a supporting layer covers the insulating layer, and a piezoelectric oscillation pile is arranged on the supporting layer; a back groove is formed in the bottom of the substrate; the packaging cap is mounted at the top of the substrate in a bonding manner; a groove for accommodating the piezoelectric layer and the top electrode is formed in the bottom of the packaging cap; the packaging cap is further provided with a vertically-through through hole, the inner wall of the through hole is covered with a metal seed layer, and the through hole is further filled with through hole metal. The invention also discloses a preparation method of the pressure sensor. According to the sensor, pressure can be applied to the groove in the back of the substrate to cause deformation of the piezoelectric oscillation pile on the front side of the substrate, so that the output frequency of the piezoelectric oscillation pile is changed, and a mechanical signal is converted into an electric signal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sensors, in particular to a pressure sensor based on an FBAR structure and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the structures of micro pressure sensors mainly include capacitive, piezoresistive, and mechanical resonance. Piezoresistive and capacitive micro pressure sensors are widely used in pressure sensors, their sensitivities are 0.01-1mV / (V·kPa) and 0.1-100fF / kPa respectively, and the output signals are analog electrical signals. Compared with piezoresistive sensors and capacitive sensors, the frequency signals of pressure sensors made of acoustic wave device structures (such as FBAR, SAW, etc.) have higher detection accuracy and accuracy, which also means that such sensors have higher resolution; at the same time, such sensors can be better used in passive wireless sensor systems. [0003] Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator (FBAR) is widely used in wireless communicati...
