Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of infrared detection, and particularly relates to an integrated polarization-cooled photon-type focal plane chip, a preparation method of the integrated polarization-cooled photon-type focal plane chip, and a cooled photon-type focal plane infrared detector configured with the above-mentioned integrated polarization-cooled photon-type focal plane chip. Background Art
[0002] Traditional cooled photon-type focal plane infrared detectors (such as mercury cadmium telluride, antimonide superlattice detectors, etc.) can detect the infrared radiation of a target and image it, and have advantages such as strong ability to penetrate smoke, and can work all-weather and all-day. However, with the development of countermeasure technologies such as infrared stealth and camouflage, even though the cooled photon-type focal plane infrared imager has high sensitivity, it is very difficult to identify the object to be measured. The introduction of polarization technology can solve the above problems. The polarization characteristics of the target can be multi-dimensional, and can provide much richer information than the infrared light intensity. Therefore, the cooled photon-type focal plane infrared polarization imaging technology has important application values in fields such as anti-interference target detection and artificial object recognition in complex environments.
[0003] The core of the integrated polarization infrared photon-type chip includes three parts: an infrared focal plane photosensitive pixel array, a readout circuit, and a polarization grating. The integration process of the polarization infrared photon-type chip requires high-precision alignment of the polarization grating with the infrared focal plane photosensitive chip, and requires high reliability without affecting the performance of the infrared focal plane. Currently, there are two commonly used integration methods. One is to directly prepare the polarization grating on the back of the infrared hybrid chip, and the other is to indirectly prepare the polarization grating on the back of the infrared hybrid chip; however, it is very difficult to achieve high-precision pixel alignment with these two schemes. Summary of the Invention

And the alignment connection between the polarization grating and the photosensitive pixel structure is completed based on the alignment of the first alignment cursor and the second alignment cursor.
[0006] As one of the embodiments, a third alignment cursor is provided in the photosensitive layer. The third alignment cursor is located on the side of the photosensitive pixel structure.

[0013] S5, completing the alignment connection between the polarization grating and the photosensitive pixel structure by aligning the second alignment cursor formed on the polarization grating with the first alignment cursor.
[0014] Further, in S1, after the photosensitive pixel structure is prepared, a passivation layer is grown on the front surface of the photosensitive module; the lithography operation of the first alignment cursor is completed in the cursor area, and after removing the passivation layer in the cursor area, the metal growth operation of the first alignment cursor is carried out.

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0030] Embodiment 1
[0031] As Figure 1 , an integrated polarization-cooled photon-type focal plane chip is provided in an embodiment of the present invention, which includes a readout circuit 1, a filling layer 3, a photosensitive layer 2, and a polarization grating 5 arranged in layers. A circuit pixel structure 11 is provided in the readout circuit 1, and a photosensitive pixel structure 21 connected to the circuit pixel structure 11 is provided in the photosensitive layer 2. The filling layer 3 includes a filling area filling the gap between the photosensitive layer 2 and the readout circuit 1 and an extension area extending to the side of the photosensitive layer 2. A first alignment cursor 4 is provided on the surface area of the extension area facing the polarization grating 5, and a second alignment cursor 51 is provided on the surface area of the polarization grating 5 facing the extension area. And the alignment between the polarization grating 5 and the photosensitive pixel structure 21 is completed based on the alignment of the first alignment cursor 4 and the second alignment cursor 51.
[0032] Among them, the circuit pixel structure 11 includes a plurality of circuit pixels distributed in an array, and the above-mentioned photosensitive pixel structure 21 includes a plurality of photosensitive pixels distributed in an array; the array distribution form of the circuit pixels matches the array distribution form of the photosensitive pixels in the photosensitive pixel structure 21. Preferably, the photosensitive pixel structure 21 and the circuit pixel structure 11 are connected by an indium column flip-chip interconnection method. Specifically, a circuit pixel indium column 12 is prepared on the circuit pixel, and a photosensitive pixel indium column 24 is prepared on the front surface (the surface of the photosensitive pixel facing the readout circuit 1) of the photosensitive pixel. The photosensitive pixel is connected to the circuit pixel by connecting the photosensitive pixel indium column 24 and the circuit pixel indium column 12. Generally, an indium column flip-chip bonder is used to complete the flip-chip connection between the photosensitive pixel indium column 24 and the circuit pixel indium column 12. The area of the above-mentioned circuit pixel structure 11 is smaller than the overall area of the readout circuit 1.
[0033] Furthermore, a pixel electrode 25 is also grown on the front surface of the photosensitive pixel. The pixel electrode 25 can be arranged around the photosensitive pixel indium column 24 or adopt other structures. In one embodiment, the pixel electrode metal is prepared by means of photolithography - development - opening - gold growth on the photosensitive pixel.
[0034] Preferably, the above-mentioned photosensitive layer 2 includes a photosensitive material region, and the above-mentioned photosensitive pixel structure 21 is formed in the photosensitive material region. Generally, a focal plane infrared photosensitive pixel array is prepared by chip processing technology. Among them, the thickness of the photosensitive material region is preferably greater than the thickness of the photosensitive pixel structure 21. There is also a layer of photosensitive material on the back of the photosensitive pixel structure 21, which can improve the working reliability of the photosensitive pixel structure 21.
[0035] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the area of the photosensitive pixel structure 21 is smaller than the area of the photosensitive layer 2, that is, the area of the photosensitive pixel structure 21 is smaller than the area of the photosensitive material region. The side of the photosensitive pixel structure 21 is the edge photosensitive region. Further, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a third alignment cursor 23 is provided in the photosensitive layer 2. The third alignment cursor 23 is located on the side of the photosensitive pixel structure 21, that is, in the above-mentioned edge photosensitive region; a fourth alignment cursor 13 is provided on the readout circuit 1, and the alignment between the photosensitive pixel structure 21 and the circuit pixel structure 11 is completed based on the alignment of the third alignment cursor 23 and the fourth alignment cursor 13. Among them, the third alignment cursor 23 is generally prepared by photolithography and gold plating in the edge photosensitive region. Based on the above solution, high-precision alignment connection between the photosensitive pixel structure 21 and the circuit pixel structure 11 can be achieved, and the preparation quality of the above-mentioned focal plane chip can be improved.
[0036] Further, as Figure 1 , in addition to the photosensitive material region, the above-mentioned photosensitive layer 2 further includes a passivation region, and the passivation region grows on the photosensitive material region and faces the readout circuit 1. In one embodiment, the material of the passivation region is ZnS / CdTe or SiO 2 ; the thickness of the passivation region can be controlled within range. The filling region of the above-mentioned filling layer 3 fills the gap between the passivation region and the readout circuit 1.
[0037] In one embodiment, the above-mentioned first alignment cursor 4 is formed on the filling layer 3 in the following manner:
[0038] As Figure 1 and Figure 2, a photosensitive module is provided. On the front surface of the photosensitive module (corresponding to the front surface of the photosensitive pixel structure 21, that is, the side surface facing the readout circuit 1), a photosensitive pixel structure 21 and a first alignment cursor 4 are provided, wherein the first alignment cursor 4 is located on the side of the photosensitive pixel structure 21; after the photosensitive pixel structure 21 is connected to the circuit pixel structure 11 of the readout circuit 1, a filling layer 3 is prepared to fill the gap between the photosensitive module and the readout circuit 1; subsequently, the photosensitive material in the cursor area 26 where the first alignment cursor 4 is located is removed to expose the first alignment cursor 4, so that the first alignment cursor 4 is formed on the filling layer 3.
[0039] Further, in the solution where the photosensitive layer 2 further includes a passivation area, after the photosensitive pixel structure 21 is fabricated, a passivation area is grown on the front surface of the photosensitive module; the lithography operation of the first alignment cursor 4 is completed in the cursor area 26, and after the passivation material in the cursor area 26 is removed, the metal growth operation of the first alignment cursor 4 is performed. Among them, the lithography operation of the first alignment cursor 4 can be completed before the growth of the passivation area, or can be performed after the growth of the passivation area according to specific circumstances.
[0040] Further, the metal growth operation of the first alignment cursor 4 includes:
[0041] Growing a metal layer;
[0042] Soaking with an acetone solution to remove the photoresist at the photomask to strip the metal on the photoresist. This operation can prevent the first alignment cursor 4 from falling off when the photosensitive material in the cursor area 26 is removed subsequently. It can be understood that the above metal growth operation method also defines the structure of the first alignment cursor 4. Among them, preferably, when growing the metal layer, a chromium layer is grown first, and then a gold layer is grown; optionally, the thickness of the chromium layer is within the range, and the thickness of the gold layer is within the range.
[0043] The structures and manufacturing methods of the above second alignment cursor 51, third alignment cursor 23, and fourth alignment cursor 13 can refer to the structure and manufacturing method of the above first alignment cursor 4.
[0044] It can be understood that the extension area of the above filling layer 3 corresponds to the position of the above cursor area 26; for the case where the passivation material in the cursor area 26 is removed first and then the filling layer 3 is formed, the thickness of the filling material in the extension area is greater than the thickness of the filling area.
[0045] In one embodiment, the above filling layer 3 is filled with glue, and the filling layer 3 can be formed after the glue is cured.
[0046] The above-mentioned readout circuit 1, filling layer 3, and photosensitive layer 2 are combined to form an infrared focal plane hybrid chip. Preferably, the polarization grating 5 includes a plurality of polarization microstructures 52, and the number and array arrangement of the polarization microstructures 52 are the same as those of the photosensitive pixels in the photosensitive pixel structure 21. The polarization grating 5 aligns the polarization microstructures 52 with the photosensitive pixels in the photosensitive pixel structure 21 one by one through an integrated process. In one embodiment, the above-mentioned polarization microstructures 52 can be adjusted in angle to form a super-pixel structure. For example, for a super-pixel structure composed of 4 polarization microstructures 52, the angles of the 4 polarization microstructures 52 are 0°, 45°, 90°, and 135°.
[0047] In the integrated polarization refrigeration photon-type focal plane chip provided in this embodiment, by aligning the first alignment cursor 4 formed on the filling layer 3 with the second alignment cursor 51 on the polarization grating 5, the alignment accuracy between the polarization grating 5 and the infrared focal plane can be significantly improved. Compared with the traditional circuit-terminal cursor alignment method, it can avoid the accuracy error caused by the secondary alignment between the polarization grating 5 and the circuit terminal, and can reduce the alignment error caused by the large height depth of field. In addition, compared with the traditional chip structure, the photosensitive material on the periphery of the infrared focal plane is removed, which can reduce the edge material stress after dicing the chip without affecting the performance of the infrared focal plane, reduce the negative impact during the chip processing, and improve the high and low temperature working reliability of the chip.
[0048] Embodiment 2

[0054] S5, complete the alignment connection between the polarization grating 5 and the photosensitive pixel structure 21 by aligning the second alignment cursor 51 formed on the polarization grating 5 with the first alignment cursor 4.
[0055] Further, in S1, after the photosensitive pixel structure 21 is fabricated, a passivation layer 22 is grown on the front side of the photosensitive module; after the lithography operation of the first alignment cursor 4 is completed in the cursor area 26, the passivation layer 22 in the cursor area 26 is removed and then the metal growth operation of the first alignment cursor 4 is performed.
[0056] Further, the metal growth operation of the first alignment cursor 4 includes:
[0057] Growing a metal layer;
[0058] Soaking in an acetone solution to remove the photoresist at the photolithography mask to strip the metal on the photoresist.
[0059] Further, the material of the passivation layer 22 is ZnS / CdTe or SiO 2 , and the removal of the passivation layer 22 is performed by wet etching or dry etching.
[0060] Further, in S1, a third alignment cursor 23 is also fabricated in the photosensitive module, and the third alignment cursor 23 is located on the side of the photosensitive pixel structure 21;
[0061] In S2, by aligning the third alignment cursor 23 with the fourth alignment cursor 13 formed on the readout circuit 1, the flip-chip connection between the photosensitive pixel indium pillar 24 and the circuit pixel indium pillar 12 is completed.

[0064] In this embodiment, by aligning the first alignment cursor 4 formed on the photosensitive module / filling layer 3 with the second alignment cursor 51 on the polarization grating 5, the alignment accuracy between the polarization grating 5 and the infrared focal plane can be significantly improved. Compared with the traditional circuit-end cursor alignment method, it can avoid the accuracy error caused by the secondary alignment between the polarization grating 5 and the circuit end, and can reduce the alignment error caused by the large height depth of field. In addition, compared with the traditional chip structure, the invalid photosensitive materials at the edge of the infrared focal plane are removed, which can reduce the influence of the edge material stress on the chip without affecting the performance of the infrared focal plane, and can balance the chip reliability under high and low temperature operations.
