[0069] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that all the terms (including technical terms and scientific terms) used in the present application have the same meaning as that generally understood by the ordinary skilled person in the field to which the present application belongs, and should not be understood as a limitation of the present application; it should be further understood that the terms used in the present application should be understood as having the same meaning as the terms in the context of the present application and the related field, and should not be understood in an idealized or overly formal sense, unless defined explicitly in the present application.
[0070] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 The present application provides a bonded substrate 100, comprising a support substrate 110, a dielectric layer 120 and a piezoelectric layer 130.
[0071] The support substrate 110 has opposite first and second surfaces. The dielectric layer 120 is arranged on the first surface of the support substrate 110. The piezoelectric layer 130 is arranged on the side of the dielectric layer 120 away from the support substrate 110.
[0072] The dielectric layer 120 comprises a low acoustic velocity layer 121 and a high acoustic velocity layer 122, the high acoustic velocity layer 122 is arranged on the first surface, and the low acoustic velocity layer 121 is arranged on the side of the high acoustic velocity layer 122 away from the support substrate 110.
[0073] A polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is provided between the support substrate 110 and the low acoustic velocity layer 121.
[0074] In actual application, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 between the support substrate 110 and the low acoustic velocity layer 121 scatters and reflects high-order spurs through the polycrystalline and amorphous structures inside, without the need to introduce cavity holes, so that the bonded substrate 100 obtains high-order spur suppression capability.
[0075] Specifically, the polycrystalline region and the amorphous region in the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 suppress noise by scattering high-order spurs. However, according to the principle that the scattering of waves by an obstacle is the largest when the wavelength is similar to the size of the object, when the polycrystalline region and the amorphous region exist alone, they can only scatter spurs of different wavelengths in a small range. When the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is formed, it can scatter spurs of different wavelengths in a large range. And in production, the mixing ratio of the two can be controlled to scatter the main spurs of the filter, so as to obtain a filter with almost no high-order noise.
[0076] Specifically, the low-velocity layer 121 is made of a low-velocity material, which can be any of the following: silicon oxide, glass, silicon oxynitride, tantalum oxide, or a compound in which fluorine, carbon, or boron is added to silicon oxide, or a material in which any of these materials is the main component. The high-velocity layer 122 is made of a high-velocity material, which can be any of the following: aluminum nitride, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, a DLC film or diamond, a material in which any of these materials is the main component, or a material in which a mixture of any of these materials is the main component. The piezoelectric layer 130 is made of at least one material selected from the group consisting of LiTaO3, LiNbO3, ZnO, AlN, and quartz. The support substrate 110 is preferably made of a high-velocity material. Specifically, the support substrate 110 is made of a high-velocity material, so that the support substrate 110 functions as a support and also transmits signals as a high-velocity medium. The support substrate 110 can be a substrate made of a material selected from the group consisting of, for example, silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, aluminum nitride, sapphire, silicon nitride, silicon, quartz, diamond, cordierite, mullite, talc, forsterite, spinel, and magnesium oxide. The materials of the various layers can be selected by a person skilled in the art as needed.
[0077] Preferably, as shown in FIG. 1, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is disposed inside the high-velocity layer 122. Specifically, disposing the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 inside the high-velocity layer 122 can reduce the influence of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 on the bonding surface of the high-velocity layer 122 and the support substrate 100 during the preparation of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140, thereby avoiding a decrease in the strength of the bonding surface of the support substrate 100. Figure 2
[0078] Further, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 disposed inside the high-velocity layer 122 is 5-50 μm away from the piezoelectric layer 130. Specifically, the thickness of the high-velocity layer 122 is 50-150 μm. Specifically, the thickness of the high-velocity layer 122 refers to the initial thickness of the high-velocity layer 122 before the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is disposed.
[0079] Preferably, as shown in FIG. 1, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is disposed inside the high-velocity layer 122. Specifically, disposing the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 inside the high-velocity layer 122 can reduce the influence of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 on the bonding surface of the high-velocity layer 122 and the support substrate 100 during the preparation of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140, thereby avoiding a decrease in the strength of the bonding surface of the support substrate 100. Figure 1
[0080] As shown in FIG. 1, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is disposed at the interface between the high-velocity layer 122 and the support substrate 110. Specifically, disposing the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 at the interface can increase the scattering of sound waves by using the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140, thereby achieving better noise suppression for the support substrate 100. Figure 4 Figure 5 As shown, the application also provides a bonded substrate 100, comprising a support substrate 110, a dielectric layer 120 and a piezoelectric layer 130. The support substrate 110 has opposite first and second surfaces. The dielectric layer 120 is arranged on the first surface of the support substrate 110. The piezoelectric layer 130 is arranged on the side of the dielectric layer 120 away from the support substrate 110.
[0081] The dielectric layer 120 comprises a low acoustic velocity layer 121 arranged on the first surface of the support substrate 110,
[0082] The support substrate 110 is made of a high acoustic velocity material. The polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is arranged inside the support substrate 110. Specifically, arranging the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 inside the support substrate 110 can simplify the manufacturing process of the bonded substrate 100, thereby saving costs. Preferably, the distance between the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 and the first surface of the support substrate 110 is in the range of 0-100 μm.
[0083] Specifically, the support substrate 110 is made of a high acoustic velocity material, so that the support substrate 110 can support the bonded substrate 100 and transmit signals as a high acoustic velocity medium. Such a design uses the support substrate 110 as a high acoustic velocity layer 122, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process of the bonded substrate 100 and saving production costs. Moreover, using a high acoustic velocity material for the support substrate 110 can increase the K value and Q value of the final product.
[0084] Preferably, as shown, Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the piezoelectric layer 130 further comprises an IDT electrode 211 on the side away from the dielectric layer 120. The projection of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 on the piezoelectric layer 130 covers at least the IDT electrode 211. Specifically, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 covers at least the IDT electrode 211, so that the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 does not need to be arranged on the whole surface, thereby further reducing costs.
[0085] In an embodiment, the proportion of the polycrystalline region in the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is 0-70%. Preferably, the proportion of the polycrystalline region in the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is 30%-50%. By controlling the proportion of the polycrystalline region, the ability of the bonded substrate 100 to suppress spurs can be adjusted, thereby enhancing the spur suppression performance and flexibility of the bonded substrate 100.
[0086] Preferably, the cell radius of the polycrystalline cell in the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is in the range of 0.1 μm-5 μm. Preferably, the cell radius of the polycrystalline cell in the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is in the range of 1 μm-3 μm. Specifically, controlling the cell radius of the polycrystalline cell can enhance the reflection and scattering ability of spurs, thereby further improving the spur suppression effect.
[0087] In an embodiment, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is obtained by laser engraving after the medium layer 120 is bonded with the support substrate 110. Specifically, the laser engraving after bonding can effectively avoid affecting the bonding strength of the support substrate 110 and the medium layer 120, thereby ensuring that the performance of the bonded substrate 100 as a whole is not affected. Further, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is prepared by laser engraving, which theoretically enables the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 to be processed at any depth inside the bonded substrate 100. In actual production, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 can be obtained at the best noise suppression position of any bonded substrate 100 through production adjustment, which can be more targeted for processing. At the same time, the laser engraving method can control the laser heating time and power parameters to obtain the best noise suppression polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 thickness, polycrystalline proportion, and polycrystalline cell size, which has strong flexibility in regulation. At the same time, the laser engraving method can solve the problem that some excellent substrate materials are not easy to form amorphous and polycrystalline, thereby expanding the material selection range of the bonded substrate 100.
[0088] Further, the laser power used in laser engraving is 2000-3000W, the heating time is 20-100us, and the laser frequency is 20-60KHz. By controlling the laser parameters used in laser engraving, the formation of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 can be ensured, and the polycrystalline and amorphous structures in the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 can be influenced to enhance the noise suppression ability of the bonded substrate 100.
[0089] In an embodiment, the thickness of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is 0.2-10μm. Preferably, the thickness of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is 2-6μm.
[0090] Preferably, when the high sound velocity layer 122 is provided, the ratio of the thickness of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 to the total thickness of the medium layer 120 is 0.02-0.1:1. The total thickness of the medium layer 120 is the sum of the thickness of the low sound velocity layer 121 and the thickness of the high sound velocity layer 122. If the thickness ratio of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is too low, i.e., the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is too thin, its reflection and scattering of noise are not obvious, and the overall suppression effect of the bonded substrate 100 is poor. If the thickness ratio of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is too high, it will lead to a significant increase in the difficulty of laser engraving and preparation cost. Specifically, the thickness of the high sound velocity layer 122 refers to the initial thickness of the high sound velocity layer 122 without the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140.
[0091] Preferably, when the support substrate 110 is made of high acoustic velocity material, the ratio of the thickness of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 to the total thickness of the medium is 0.02-0.1:1, and the total thickness of the medium is the sum of the thickness of the medium layer 120 and the thickness of the support substrate 110. Specifically, the thickness of the support substrate 110 refers to the initial thickness of the support substrate 110 without the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140.

[0097] Preferably, the medium layer 120 comprises a low acoustic velocity layer 121 and a high acoustic velocity layer 122, the high acoustic velocity layer 122 is disposed on the first surface, and the low acoustic velocity layer 121 is disposed on the side of the high acoustic velocity layer 122 away from the support substrate 110. A polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is disposed between the support substrate 110 and the low acoustic velocity layer 121.

[0099] Preferably, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is disposed inside the high acoustic velocity layer 122. Specifically, disposing the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 inside the high acoustic velocity layer 122 can reduce the influence of the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 on the bonding surface of the high acoustic velocity layer 122 and the support substrate 100 during preparation, thereby avoiding the decrease in the strength of the bonding surface of the bonding substrate 100, and further avoiding the influence on the overall strength of the elastic wave device 200.
[0100] Further, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 disposed inside the high acoustic velocity layer 122 is 5-50 μm away from the piezoelectric layer 130. Specifically, the thickness of the high acoustic velocity layer 122 is 50-150 μm. Specifically, the thickness of the high acoustic velocity layer 122 refers to the initial thickness of the high acoustic velocity layer 122 without the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140.
[0101] Preferably, the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 is arranged at the interface between the high acoustic velocity layer 122 and the support substrate 110. Arranging the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 at the interface can increase the scattering effect of the acoustic wave by using the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed material, so that the bonding substrate 100 has a better spurious wave suppression effect and the elastic wave device 200 has a better performance.

Specifically, arranging the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 in the support substrate 110 can simplify the manufacturing process of the bonding substrate 100, thereby saving costs. Preferably, the distance between the polycrystalline-amorphous mixed region 140 and the first surface of the support substrate 110 is in the range of 0-100 μm. At the same time, the support substrate 110 is made of a high acoustic velocity material, so that the support substrate 110 not only supports the bonding substrate 100 but also transmits signals as a high acoustic velocity medium. Such a design uses the support substrate 110 as the high acoustic velocity layer 122, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process of the bonding substrate 100 and saving production costs. Moreover, using the high acoustic velocity material for the support substrate 110 can increase the K value and Q value of the elastic wave device 200.
