Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of radio frequency devices, and in particular relates to a filter and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the contemporary era, the consumer electronics industry is developing rapidly. Mobile communication terminals represented by mobile phones, especially 5G mobile phones, are developing rapidly. Mobile phones need to process more and more signal frequency bands, and the number of RF chips required is also rising. The mobile phone forms that are popular with consumers are constantly developing towards miniaturization, lightness, and long battery life. In traditional mobile phones, there are a large number of discrete devices such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, filters, etc. on the RF PCB board. They have the disadvantages of large size, high power consumption, many solder joints, and large changes in parasitic parameters, which are difficult to meet future needs. The interconnection and matching between RF chips require integrated passive devices with small area, high performance, and good consistency. The integrated passive devices on the market are mainly based on Si (silicon) substrates and GaAs (gallium arsenide) substrates. Si-based integrated passive devices have the advantage of low price, but Si itself has trace impurities (poor insulation), which leads to high microwave loss of the device and general performance; GaAs-based integrated passive devices have the advantage of excellent performance, but are expensive.

[0059] The present invention provides a filter and a method for preparing the same. Figure 1 As shown, the filter includes a first substrate 1 and a second substrate 2 which are stacked. The first substrate 1 includes a first dielectric substrate 3 and a filter circuit integrated on the first dielectric substrate 3. The second substrate 2 includes a second dielectric substrate 4, and the second dielectric substrate 4 includes a first surface and a second surface which are arranged opposite to each other along its thickness direction. A switching circuit is arranged on the first surface, and the switching circuit is electrically connected to the filter circuit. The second dielectric substrate 4 is provided with a first connecting via 5 which passes through the second dielectric substrate 4 in its thickness direction, a signal introduction electrode 7 is arranged in the first connecting via 5, and a first connecting terminal 8 is arranged on the second surface, one end of the signal introduction electrode 7 is electrically connected to the first connecting terminal 8, and the other end is electrically connected to the switching circuit.

[0060] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, continue to refer to Figure 1, the filter circuit on the first dielectric substrate 3 is connected to the switching circuit arranged on the first surface of the second dielectric substrate 4 by means including but not limited to welding, that is, the filter circuit is connected to some components in the switching circuit to realize the electrical connection between the filter circuit and the switching circuit. The first connection terminal 8 on the second surface of the second dielectric substrate 4 is electrically connected to the switching circuit through the signal introduction electrode 7 arranged in the first connection via 5 that penetrates the second dielectric substrate 4 along its thickness direction, wherein the first connection terminal 8 can be including but not limited to a solder ball. In this way, the first substrate 1 with the filter circuit and the second substrate 2 with the switching circuit form a laminated structure, and the signal connection electrode electrically connected to the first connection terminal 8 and the formed laminated structure writes the electrical signal required when the filter is working into the circuit composed of the filter circuit and the switching circuit. In this way, a three-dimensional packaging structure of the filter is realized, and the number of peripheral circuit routings is reduced, and signal distortion and loss are reduced. In addition, the miniaturization of the packaged device is realized, and the difficulty of the preparation process is reduced.

[0061] Meanwhile, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first dielectric substrate 3 may have a plurality of filter circuits. Figure 1 The structure shown is only described by taking a filter circuit as an example. The switching circuit on the first surface of the second dielectric substrate 4 includes at least passive components such as inductors, capacitors and resistors. The circuit structure in the switching circuit can be specifically adjusted according to the specific structure and number of the filter circuits connected thereto. In the embodiment disclosed herein, only part of the capacitors and part of the inductors in the switching circuit are described. Therefore, in this way, the switching circuit on the second dielectric substrate 4 can integrate the required external circuits therein, reduce the number of circuit traces, so as to reduce signal distortion and loss while improving the utilization rate of the second dielectric substrate 4. On the other hand, according to specific needs, the switching circuit can process signals between multiple filter circuits connected thereto, further simplify the structure of the filter, and reduce the difficulty and cost of its preparation. The filter structure of the embodiment disclosed herein is described in detail below.

[0062] In some embodiments, the first dielectric substrate 3 and the second dielectric substrate 4 include, but are not limited to, any one of a glass substrate, a flexible substrate, and an interlayer dielectric layer including at least an organic insulating layer. Since integrated circuits on a glass substrate have the advantages of small size, light weight, high performance, and low power consumption, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first dielectric substrate 3 and the second dielectric substrate 4 are glass substrates.

[0063] In some embodiments, continue to refer to Figure 1The first dielectric substrate 3 includes a third surface and a fourth surface arranged opposite to each other in the thickness direction and a second connecting via 6 arranged in the thickness direction. A first connecting electrode 11 is arranged in the second connecting via 6, a first substructure 9 is formed on the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3, and a second substructure 10 is formed on the fourth surface of the first dielectric substrate 3. The first substructure 9, the first connecting electrode 11 and the second substructure 10 are connected in series to form a first inductor L1 in the filter circuit. Figure 2 , the specific structure of the first inductor L1 is described.

[0064] Figure 2 is a top view of the first inductor L1 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figure 2 , each first substructure 9 of the first inductor L1 extends along the first direction and is arranged side by side along the second direction. Each second substructure 10 of the first inductor L1 extends along the third direction and is arranged side by side along the second direction. Among them, the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are all different directions. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, and the first direction and the third direction intersect and are arranged non-perpendicularly. Of course, the extension directions of the first substructure 9 and the second substructure 10 can also be interchanged, both within the protection scope of the embodiment of the present disclosure. In addition, in the present embodiment, the first inductor L1 includes N first substructures 9 and N-1 second substructures 10 as an example for explanation, wherein N≥2, and N is an integer. The first end and the second end of the first substructure 9 respectively overlap with the orthographic projection of a first connecting via 5 on the first dielectric substrate 3 at least partially. And the first end and the second end of a first substructure 9 correspond to different first connecting vias 5, that is, the orthographic projection of a first substructure 9 and two first connecting vias 5 on the first dielectric substrate 3 at least partially overlap. At this time, the first end of the i-th second substructure 10 of the first inductor L1 is connected to the first end of the i-th first substructure 9 and the second end of the i+1-th first substructure 9 to form an inductor coil, where 1≤i≤N-1, and i is an integer.

[0065] It should be noted that the first lead terminal 37 is connected to the second end of the first first substructure 9 of the inductor, and the second lead terminal 38 is connected to the first end of the Nth first substructure 9. Further, the first lead terminal 37 and the second lead terminal 38 can be arranged in the same layer as the second substructure 10 and made of the same material. In this case, the first lead terminal 37 can be connected to the second end of the first first substructure 9 through the first connecting via 5, and correspondingly, the second lead terminal 38 can be connected to the first end of the Nth first substructure 9 through the first connecting via 5.

[0066] In this way, a first inductor L1 having a three-dimensional structure is formed on a first dielectric substrate 3 whose material is glass-based, so that the first inductor L1 has a higher quality factor Q, and the performance of the filter circuit having the first inductor L1 is better. It should also be noted that the first dielectric substrate 3 may include one or more inductors having the structure of the first inductor L1, and multiple first inductors L1 may form a series or parallel structure according to the specific circuit performance requirements. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, only the first inductor L1 is used as an example for explanation. For those skilled in the art, it is easy to think that the filter circuit has multiple inductors having the same structure as the first inductor L1, and therefore it is also within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0067] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the filter circuit also includes a first capacitor arranged on the side of the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 away from the first dielectric substrate 3. The first capacitor includes a first plate, a first interlayer dielectric layer 12 and a second plate, which are sequentially arranged on the side of the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 away from the first dielectric substrate 3. The capacitor structure of the first capacitor is formed in this way, so that the first capacitor is electrically connected to the first inductor L1 in the filter circuit to achieve the filtering function of the circuit. It should also be noted that the first dielectric substrate 3 may include one or more capacitors with a first capacitor structure, and multiple first capacitors may form a series or parallel structure according to specific circuit performance requirements. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, only the first capacitor is used as an example for explanation. For those skilled in the art, it is easy to think that the filter circuit has multiple capacitors with the same first capacitor structure, so it is also within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0068] Continue to refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the first substructure 9 may include a first conductive film 91 and a second conductive film 92. The first conductive film 91 is disposed in the same layer as the first electrode of the first capacitor, and the first conductive film 91 is electrically connected to the first electrode of the first capacitor. A second interlayer dielectric layer 14 and a third interlayer dielectric layer 15 are sequentially disposed on the side of the first electrode of the first capacitor away from the first dielectric substrate 3. The second interlayer dielectric layer 14 and the third interlayer dielectric layer 15 are used as an interlayer insulating layer and a planarization layer, respectively, to prevent conduction between interlayer metal layers and to prevent water and oxygen corrosion. The second conductive film 92 is disposed on the side of the third interlayer dielectric layer 15 away from the first dielectric substrate 3. The second conductive film 92 is electrically connected to the first conductive film 91 through a third connecting via penetrating the second interlayer dielectric layer 14 and the third interlayer dielectric layer 15, so as to realize the structure of the first inductor L1 on the third surface of the first dielectric layer.

[0069] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the filter circuit further includes a second connection electrode 16 disposed in the same layer as the second conductive film 92, and the second connection electrode 16 penetrates the fourth connection via of the third interlayer dielectric layer 15 and is electrically connected to the second electrode plate 13 of the first capacitor, and is used as a connection electrode of the first capacitor. A fourth interlayer dielectric layer 17 and a fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18 are sequentially disposed on the side of the second conductive film 92 away from the first dielectric substrate 3, which are used as a protective layer and a planarization layer. A first connection pad 19 and a second connection pad 20 are disposed on the side of the fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18 away from the third interlayer dielectric layer 15, and the first connection pad 19 is electrically connected to the second connection electrode 16 through a fifth connection via 21 penetrating the fourth interlayer dielectric layer 17 and the fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18. The second connection pad 20 is electrically connected to the second conductive film 92 through a sixth connection via 22 penetrating the fourth interlayer dielectric layer 17 and the fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18. The first connection pad 19 and the second connection pad 20 are used as signal input terminals of the filter circuit to input or transmit the corresponding electrical signal to the filter circuit. In some embodiments, the filter circuit can be welded to the other sub-circuits by welding process, such as welding the filter circuit to the connection circuit in the embodiment of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, in order to make it easier to arrange the first connection pad 19 and the second connection pad 20 on the fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18, the material of the fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18 can be a photosensitive organic material.

[0070] Continue to refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the filter circuit further includes a sixth interlayer dielectric layer 23 and a seventh interlayer dielectric layer 24 disposed on the fourth surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 and away from the first dielectric substrate 3. The sixth interlayer dielectric layer 23 and the seventh interlayer dielectric layer 24 are used as a protective layer and a planarization layer to protect the second substructure 10 from being corroded by water and oxygen during the manufacturing and use process.

In this way, the switching circuit writes an electrical signal transmitted by a signal introduction electrode 7 into the filter circuit via the first connection pad 19 and writes an electrical signal transmitted by another signal introduction electrode 7 into the filter circuit via the second connection pad 20, so as to complete the introduction of the electrical signal into the filter circuit through the signal introduction electrode 7. On the other hand, the switching circuit can be adjusted according to the actual needs of the filter circuit and the filter to effectively process the signal between the circuits electrically connected to the switching circuit. In this way, the external wiring is reduced, the signal loss is reduced, and the filter packaging is miniaturized. It should be noted that the switching circuit in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes at least the second capacitor and the second inductor L2. It is conceivable that the switching circuit also includes other inductors or capacitors to achieve its function.

The first end of the second inductor L2 is electrically connected to the third connection electrode 28 through the eighth connection via 33 penetrating the ninth interlayer dielectric layer 29 and the tenth interlayer dielectric layer 30.

[0074] Continue to refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the switching circuit further includes an eleventh interlayer dielectric layer 32 disposed on the tenth interlayer dielectric layer 30 on a side away from the second dielectric substrate 4, and used as a planarization layer. The eleventh interlayer dielectric layer 32 is provided with an eighth connection via 33 and a ninth connection via 34 penetrating the eleventh interlayer dielectric layer 32. The eighth connection via 33 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second end of the second inductor L2 on the second dielectric substrate 4, and the ninth connection via 34 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the fourth connection electrode 31 on the second dielectric substrate 4. In this way, the first connection pad 19 and the second connection pad 20 in the filter circuit are electrically connected to the switching circuit through the eighth connection via 33 and the ninth connection via 34 by a welding process.

[0075] The structural parameters of each device in the filter of the embodiment of the present disclosure are explained one by one in the following preparation method, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0076] The present disclosure provides a method for preparing a filter, and the filter may be the above-mentioned filter, such as Figure 5 As shown, the preparation method comprises the following steps:

[0077] Formed as Figure 1 The first substrate 1 and the second substrate 2 are stacked as shown, wherein forming the first substrate 1 includes: providing a first dielectric substrate 3, and integrating a filter circuit on the first dielectric substrate 3;

[0078] The second substrate 2 is formed by: providing a second dielectric substrate 4; the second dielectric substrate 4 includes a first surface and a second surface which are arranged opposite to each other along the thickness direction thereof, and forming a switching circuit on the first surface of the second dielectric substrate 4; and electrically connecting the switching circuit to the filter circuit;

[0079] A first connecting via 5 is formed on the second dielectric substrate 4 and penetrates through the second dielectric substrate 4 in the thickness direction thereof. A signal introducing electrode 7 is formed in the first connecting via 5 and a first connecting terminal 8 is formed on the second surface of the second dielectric substrate 4. One end of the signal introducing electrode 7 is electrically connected to the first connecting terminal 8, and the other end is electrically connected to the switching circuit.

[0080] In order to make the preparation method in the embodiment of the present disclosure clear, the preparation method in the embodiment of the present disclosure is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0081] S1, forming a first substrate 1. Figure 6 As shown, the steps of forming the first substrate 1 include:

[0082] S10, providing a first dielectric substrate 3, and processing the first dielectric substrate 3 to form a second connecting via 6 penetrating along the thickness direction thereof, such as Figure 7 shown.

[0083] In some examples, the second connection vias 6 on the first dielectric substrate 3 can be punched by methods including but not limited to mechanical punching, laser punching, photolithography punching, etc. The following describes the process of forming the second connection vias 6 by taking laser punching as an example.

[0084] Furthermore, step S10 may include the following steps:

[0085] For example: (1) Cleaning: The first dielectric substrate 3 enters a cleaning machine for cleaning.

[0086] In some examples, the thickness of the first dielectric substrate 3 is about 0.3 mm-2 mm.

[0087] (2) Laser drilling: A laser is used to vertically incident the laser beam onto the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 to modify the surface, so as to form a first sub-via hole on the third surface side of the first dielectric substrate 3. Similarly, a laser is used to vertically incident the laser beam onto the fourth surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 to modify the surface, so as to form a second sub-via hole on the fourth surface side of the first dielectric substrate 3. The second sub-via hole is connected to the first sub-via hole to form a second connecting via hole 6.

[0088] Specifically, when the laser beam interacts with the first dielectric substrate 3, the atoms in the first dielectric substrate 3 are ionized and ejected out of the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 due to the high energy of the laser photons. As time goes by, the hole is gradually deepened until the first sub-via hole is formed. The first dielectric substrate 3 is turned over and the second sub-via hole is formed according to the same principle. Among them, the generally available laser wavelength is 532nm, 355nm, 266nm, 248nm, 197nm, etc., the laser pulse width can be selected from 1-100fs, 1-100ps, 1-100ns, etc., and the type of laser can be selected from continuous laser, pulse laser, etc. The laser drilling method can include but is not limited to the following two methods. In the first method, when the spot diameter is large, the relative position of the laser beam and the first dielectric substrate 3 is fixed, and the first dielectric substrate 3 is directly punched to a preset depth by high energy. At this time, the shape of the first sub-via hole formed is an inverted cone, and the diameter of the inverted cone decreases from top to bottom (from the third surface to the fourth surface). In the second method, when the spot diameter is small, the laser beam scans in a circle on the first dielectric substrate 3, the spot focus is constantly changing, the focus depth is also constantly changing, and a spiral line is drawn from the lower surface (fourth surface) of the first dielectric substrate 3 to the upper surface (third surface) of the first dielectric substrate 3, and the spiral radius decreases from bottom to top. The first dielectric substrate 3 is laser cut into a truncated cone shape to form a first sub-via, and the shape of the first blind hole is the first sub-via; the second sub-via is formed in the same way as the first sub-via, so it will not be repeated. It can be seen that the second connecting via 6 formed by the first sub-via and the second sub-via is in the shape of an hourglass.

[0089] Of course, the first sub-connection via in the embodiment of the present disclosure may also be formed by irradiating only the third surface or the fourth surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 with a laser beam to form a truncated cone or cylindrical connection via, and the formation method may be the same as the above method, so it will not be repeated here.

[0090] (3) HF etching: Since a stress zone is formed in the area of ​​about 5-20 microns on the upper surface of the inner wall of the second connecting via 6 near the hole during the laser drilling process, the surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 in this area is uneven and presents a molten state with many burrs, and there are a large number of microcracks and macrocracks, and there is residual stress. At this time, a 2%-20% HF etching solution is used, and wet etching is performed at an appropriate temperature for a certain period of time to etch away the glass in the stress zone, so that the interior of the second connecting via 6 and the area near the hole on the surface are smooth and flat, without microcracks and macrocracks, and the stress zone is completely etched away.

[0091] S11, forming a first connection electrode 11 located at the second connection via 6, forming a first conductive film 91 of the first substructure 9 of the first inductor L1 and a first electrode plate of the first capacitor, such as Figure 8 shown.

[0092] In some examples, step S11 may specifically be as follows:

[0093] (1) Growing a seed layer: depositing a first metal material on the fourth surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 by magnetron sputtering, flipping the first dielectric substrate 3, and depositing the first metal material on the third surface by magnetron sputtering. At this time, the first metal material is formed on the side wall of the second connecting via 6 as a seed layer.

[0094] In some examples, the first metal material includes but is not limited to at least one of copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), molybdenum (Mo), and silver (Ag), and the thickness of the first metal material is about 0.2 μm to 10 μm. In the following description, the material of the first metal film layer is copper as an example.

[0095] In some examples, in order to increase the adhesion between the first metal material and the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3, before forming the first metal material, an auxiliary metal film layer may be formed on the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 by a method including but not limited to magnetron sputtering. The material of the auxiliary metal film layer includes but is not limited to at least one of nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo) alloy, and titanium (Ti) alloy, for example, MoNb, and the thickness of the auxiliary metal film layer is about 2nm-20nm.

[0096] (2) Electroplating: Place the first dielectric substrate 3 on the electroplating machine carrier, press the power pad, place it in the hole-filling electroplating tank (special hole-filling electrolyte is used in the tank), add current, and keep the electroplating solution flowing rapidly on the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3. The cations in the electroplating solution on the inner wall of the second connecting via 6 obtain electrons and become atoms and deposit on the inner wall. Through the special hole-filling electrolyte with a special ratio, it is possible to deposit metal copper at a high speed (deposition rate 0.5-3um / min) mainly in the second connecting via 6, while the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 is a flat area, and the deposition rate of metal copper on these two surfaces is extremely low (0.005-0.05um / min). As time goes by, the metal copper on the inner wall of the second connecting via 6 gradually grows thicker to form a first metal film layer. At this time, the thickness of the first metal film layer can be 3 microns to 10 microns. At this time, the first metal film layer fills the second connecting via 6.

[0097] In some examples, the first metal film layer may not fully fill the second connection via 6. In this step, a filling medium needs to be formed in the second connection via 6 to support the circuit structure disposed on the first surface of the first dielectric layer. The material of the filling medium may include an organic insulating material, such as a resin material including polyimide, epoxy resin, acrylic, polyester, photoresist, polyacrylate, polyamide, siloxane, etc. For another example, the organic insulating material includes an elastic material, such as urethane, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), etc.

[0098] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, an example is taken in which the first metal film layer fills up the second connecting via hole 611 .

[0099] (3) Patterning of the first metal film layer on the third surface: coating, exposing, developing, and then etching the first metal film layer on the third surface. After etching, stripping is performed to form the first conductive film 91 of the first substructure 9 and the first electrode of the first capacitor located on the third surface.

[0101] In some examples, the material of the first interlayer dielectric layer 12 is an inorganic insulating material. For example, the first interlayer dielectric layer 12 is an inorganic insulating layer formed of silicon nitride (SiNx), or a silicon oxide (SiO 2 ) or an inorganic insulating layer formed by SiNx inorganic insulating layer and SiO 2 Several types of stacked inorganic insulating layers are combined into a film layer. Of course, the first interlayer dielectric layer 12 also serves as the intermediate dielectric layer of the capacitor. The thickness of the first interlayer dielectric layer 12 can be 0.1 micron to 0.5 micron.

[0102] In some examples, the second plate 13 of the first capacitor can form a second metal film layer on the side of the first interlayer dielectric layer 12 away from the first dielectric substrate 3 by magnetron sputtering, and then perform glue coating, exposure, development, and subsequent wet etching. After etching, the glue is stripped to form a pattern including the second plate 13 of the first capacitor.

The material of the third metal film layer may be the same as that of the first metal film layer, so it will not be repeated here.

[0107] In some examples, the thickness of the third metal film layer may be 3 micrometers to 10 micrometers, and the thickness of the formed second conductive film 92 is greater than the thickness of the first conductive film 91 .

Fig.12 shown.

[0109] The fifth interlayer dielectric layer is used to prevent water and oxygen from corroding the devices formed on the third surface of the first dielectric substrate 3. The thickness of the fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18 is between 2 microns and 5 microns; the material of the fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18 can be an inorganic insulating material. For example, the fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18 can be an inorganic insulating layer formed of silicon nitride (SiNx), or a silicon oxide (SiO 2 ) or an inorganic insulating layer formed by SiNx inorganic insulating layer and SiO 2Several stacked composite film layers of inorganic insulating layers. The thickness of the sixth interlayer dielectric layer 23 is above 2 μm; the material of the sixth interlayer dielectric layer 23 may include an organic insulating material, such as polyimide, epoxy resin, acrylic, polyester, photoresist, polyacrylate, polyamide, siloxane and other resin materials. For another example, the organic insulating material includes an elastic material, such as urethane, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), etc. In some embodiments, the material of the sixth interlayer dielectric layer 23 may be a photosensitive organic material to make it easier to form the connection pads formed thereon.

[0112] The thickness of the fourth metal film layer is 3 micrometers to 5 micrometers or more. The material of the fourth metal film layer can be the same as that of the first metal film layer, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0116] At this point, the manufacturing of the first substrate 1 is completed.

[0117] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, Fig.15As shown, the step of forming the second connecting via 6 is before the step of forming the second substructure 10. That is, the film layer structure located on the first surface of the first dielectric substrate 3 is formed first, and then the second connecting via 6 and the first connecting electrode 11 located in the second connecting via 6 are formed, and then the second substructure 10 and the fifth interlayer dielectric layer 18 and the sixth interlayer dielectric layer 23 are formed on the second surface of the second dielectric substrate 4 in sequence.
