Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of radio frequency technology, and in particular to an acoustic wave resonator and a filter. Background Art

[0002] At present, 5G communication technology is in a stage of rapid development. At the same time, with the urgent market demand for higher data transmission rates, Wi-Fi 7 technology has also followed. The various frequency bands used by 5G and Wi-Fi 7 not only have higher center frequencies, but also have wider bandwidths. For example, the n77 band of 5G covers a frequency range of 3.3 GHz to 4.2 GHz, with a bandwidth of 900 MHz and a relative bandwidth (FBW) of 24%; the UNII 5-8 band of Wi-Fi 7 operates in a frequency range of 5.925 GHz to 7.125 GHz, with a bandwidth of 1200 MHz and a relative bandwidth of up to 18.4%. The introduction of these high-frequency broadband bands has significantly improved the performance of communication systems, but at the same time, it has also put forward higher technical requirements for the signal processing capabilities of the radio frequency front end (RFFE) to ensure high speed and high reliability of data transmission.

[0003] RF filters are indispensable components in RF front-ends, among which acoustic wave filters are one of the most popular components due to their small size, high frequency, low insertion loss, and large bandwidth. However, as the operating frequency continues to increase, acoustic wave filters face more stringent performance challenges. For example, as mentioned above, in the UNII 5-8 frequency band (5.925 GHz-7.125 GHz) of Wi-Fi 7, the required relative bandwidth (FBW) has exceeded 18.4%, which requires the electromechanical coupling coefficient ( k ²) at least 36.8%. However, traditional acoustic resonators can no longer meet the current demand for high performance. For example, the film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) has encountered obvious technical limitations in expanding the relative bandwidth; and although the Lamb wave acoustic resonator can achieve both a higher operating frequency and a wider bandwidth, its reliance on the vibration characteristics of the suspended structure leads to problems with the structural stability of the device. In addition, its preparation process is complex and the preparation cost is high. Therefore, improving the performance of acoustic resonators working in the centimeter wave band while reducing the complexity and cost of device preparation has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art.

Although the longitudinal mode sound waves and high-order shear mode sound waves excited only by the piezoelectric layer are independent of each other and resonate at different frequencies, after the coupling adjustment layer is introduced, since the coupling adjustment layer also participates in the mechanical vibration, the equivalent sound velocity (i.e., the phase velocity of sound wave propagation) of the whole composed of the piezoelectric layer and the coupling adjustment layer changes relative to the sound velocity of the single piezoelectric layer, that is, the introduction of the coupling adjustment layer can change the sound velocity of the sound wave.

[0052] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0053] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present application, but the present application may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0054] Secondly, the present application is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagram. When describing the embodiments of the present application in detail, for the sake of convenience, the cross-sectional diagrams showing the device structure will not be partially enlarged according to the general scale, and the schematic diagrams are only examples, which should not limit the scope of protection of the present application. In addition, in actual production, the three-dimensional dimensions of length, width and depth should be included.

[0055] The embodiment of the present application provides an acoustic wave resonator, Figure 1 FIG. 4 shows a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of an acoustic wave resonator provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the acoustic wave resonator includes a substrate 1, a coupling adjustment layer 2 located on one side of the substrate 1, a piezoelectric layer 3 located on a side of the coupling adjustment layer 2 facing away from the substrate 1, and interdigital electrodes 4 located on a side of the piezoelectric layer 3 facing away from the substrate 1.

[0056] The material of the piezoelectric layer 3 is an anisotropic piezoelectric material, and the tangent direction of the piezoelectric material is a preset tangent direction.

[0057] We know that the tangent direction of a piezoelectric material refers to the direction parallel to the normal of a cutting surface after a piece of piezoelectric material is cut with a cutting surface. The choice of the tangent direction of the piezoelectric material has an important influence on the performance and application of the piezoelectric material. After the tangent direction of the piezoelectric material is determined, the thickness direction of the piezoelectric layer composed of the piezoelectric material is determined, and the coordinate axis along the thickness direction of the piezoelectric layer in the coordinate system of the determined tangent direction is also determined. In the coordinate system of the determined tangent direction, the other two coordinate axes are parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer is located, that is, the coordinate system of the determined tangent direction can also be determined.

[0058] For example, the preset tangent direction of the piezoelectric material constituting the piezoelectric layer 3 is the X tangent direction. In the coordinate system of the X tangent direction, Figure 1 and Figure 2a As shown, the X axis is parallel to the thickness direction of the piezoelectric layer 3, the Y axis and the Z axis are parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer 3 is located, and the X axis, the Y axis and the Z axis are perpendicular to each other.

[0059] For another example, the preset tangent direction of the piezoelectric material constituting the piezoelectric layer 3 is the Y tangent direction. In the Y tangent direction coordinate system, Figure 1 and Figure 2b As shown, the Y axis is parallel to the thickness direction of the piezoelectric layer 3, the X axis and the Z axis are parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer 3 is located, and the X axis, the Y axis and the Z axis are perpendicular to each other.

[0060] For another example, the preset tangent direction of the piezoelectric material constituting the piezoelectric layer 3 is the Z tangent direction. In the coordinate system of the Z tangent direction, Figure 1 and Figure 2c As shown, the Z axis is parallel to the thickness direction of the piezoelectric layer 3, the X axis and the Y axis are parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer 3 is located, and the X axis, the Y axis and the Z axis are perpendicular to each other.

[0061] In this application, combined Figure 1 , Figure 2a-2c As shown, the extension direction of the interdigital electrode 4 is set to the first direction M, the second direction N is perpendicular to the first direction M, and the first direction M and the second direction N are both parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer 3 is located.

[0062] It can be understood that the second direction N is parallel to the horizontal electric field direction formed by the interdigital electrodes 4. As we know, the interdigital electrodes usually form finger-shaped or comb-shaped electrode pairs, which form a periodic pattern on the horizontal plane. When a voltage is applied to the interdigital electrodes, an electric field is formed between the interdigital electrodes. Between adjacent interdigital electrodes, the direction of the electric field is usually horizontal, perpendicular to the extension direction of the interdigital electrodes, and the direction of the electric field alternates along the horizontal direction.

[0063] In the present application, the angle between the second direction N and the positive direction of the c-axis in the coordinate system of the preset tangent direction of the piezoelectric material constituting the piezoelectric layer 3 is taken as the in-plane Euler angle of the piezoelectric material. α, wherein the c-axis is parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer 3 is located, and is a coordinate axis parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer 3 is located in a preset tangential coordinate system.

[0064] For example, Figure 2a As shown, the preset tangent direction of the piezoelectric material constituting the piezoelectric layer 3 is the X tangent direction, and the angle formed by the second direction N and the positive direction of the Y axis in the coordinate system of the X tangent direction is taken as the in-plane Euler angle of the piezoelectric material α , that is, the c-axis is the Y-axis in the X-tangent coordinate system.

[0065] For example, Figure 2b As shown, the preset tangent direction of the piezoelectric material constituting the piezoelectric layer 3 is the Y tangent direction, and the angle formed by the second direction N and the positive direction of the X axis in the coordinate system of the Y tangent direction is taken as the in-plane Euler angle of the piezoelectric material α , that is, the c-axis is the X-axis in the Y-tangent coordinate system.

[0066] Another example, Figure 2c As shown, the preset tangent direction of the piezoelectric material constituting the piezoelectric layer 3 is the Z tangent direction, and the angle formed by the second direction N and the positive direction of the X axis in the coordinate system of the Z tangent direction is taken as the in-plane Euler angle of the piezoelectric material α , that is, the c-axis is the X-axis in the Y-tangent coordinate system.

[0067] You can choose the appropriate anisotropic piezoelectric material and the appropriate tangent direction of the piezoelectric material, so that you can select the Euler angle α The value range of is a preset range, so that the piezoelectric coefficient of the piezoelectric layer 3 includes the piezoelectric coefficient matrix e 11 Quantity and e 34 Quantity, among which, e 11 The component is used to excite the longitudinal mode sound wave, e 34 The components are used to excite higher-order shear mode acoustic waves.

[0068] It can be understood that the piezoelectric coefficient matrix of a piezoelectric material represents the performance of the piezoelectric material in the process of force-electric conversion, which reveals the relationship between the amount of charge generated in each direction and the stress when the piezoelectric material is subjected to stress. Because the electric field is a vector (with three directions) and the stress is a second-order tensor (with six independent components, including three normal stresses and three shear stresses), the piezoelectric coefficient matrix of a piezoelectric material is represented as a 3×6 matrix:

[0069] (1)

[0070] Among them, the elements in the piezoelectric coefficient matrix are expressed as e ij, i represents the direction of the electric field, and j represents the direction of the stress. In the above piezoelectric coefficient matrix, the first three columns are longitudinal piezoelectric coefficients, and the last three columns are shear piezoelectric coefficients. The piezoelectric coefficient matrix is ​​the inherent physical property of the piezoelectric material. The values ​​of the elements in the piezoelectric coefficient matrix depend on the type of piezoelectric material, the tangent direction, and the in-plane Euler angle.

[0071] In the acoustic wave resonator structure proposed in the present application, once the piezoelectric material and the tangent direction of the piezoelectric layer 3 are determined, the elements in the piezoelectric coefficient matrix change with the in-plane Euler angles α The Euler angle changes with the rotation of α After being determined, the piezoelectric coefficient matrix of the piezoelectric layer 3 is also determined.

[0072] It can also be understood that the excitation of a specific acoustic mode is related to the type of piezoelectric material of the piezoelectric layer 3, the tangent direction, and the in-plane Euler angles. α The value range of is closely related. When the piezoelectric material and tangent direction of the piezoelectric layer 3 are determined, if the in-plane Euler angle α If the piezoelectric coefficients of the acoustic mode are different, the types and quantities of the piezoelectric coefficients of the acoustic mode are also different. Therefore, by determining the type, tangent direction and in-plane Euler angle of the piezoelectric material of the piezoelectric layer 3, α The value range of can make the piezoelectric coefficient of the piezoelectric layer 3 to excite the acoustic mode include the piezoelectric coefficient matrix e 11 Quantity and e 34 Quantity, e 11 The component is used to excite the longitudinal mode sound wave, e 34 The components are used to excite higher-order shear mode acoustic waves.

[0073] Optionally, the piezoelectric layer 3 may be a lithium niobate layer, a lithium tantalate layer, or a composite layer consisting of at least two of a lithium niobate layer, an aluminum nitride layer, a scandium-doped aluminum nitride layer, a lithium tantalate layer, and a zinc oxide layer. For the piezoelectric layer 3 of different piezoelectric materials, a specific tangent direction and in-plane Euler angle may be selected accordingly. α The value range of makes the piezoelectric coefficient of the acoustic mode excited by the piezoelectric layer 3 include the piezoelectric coefficient matrix e 11 Quantity and e 34 Quantity.

[0074] For example, the piezoelectric layer 3 is a lithium niobate layer, and the preset tangent direction is the X tangent direction. As is known above, Figure 2a As shown, the c-axis in the X-tangent coordinate system is the Y-axis, that is, the angle between the second direction N and the positive direction of the Y-axis in the X-tangent coordinate system is taken as the Euler angle α The lithium niobate layer in the X-direction is highly anisotropic, and the in-plane Euler angle αWhen the values ​​are different, the types and quantities of the piezoelectric coefficients of the acoustic modes excited by the piezoelectric layer 3 are also different. α Satisfaction: 10°≤ α ≤90°, or -170°≤ α When ≤-90°, the piezoelectric coefficient of the piezoelectric layer 3 of the lithium niobate material can include e 11 Quantity and e 34 It can be understood that the in-plane Euler angle α One cycle is 180°, so the 10°~90° in one 180° cycle corresponds to -170°~-90° in another 180° cycle.

[0075] The acoustic wave resonator provided in the embodiment of the present application is configured such that the material of the piezoelectric layer 3 is an anisotropic piezoelectric material, and the tangent direction of the piezoelectric material is a preset tangent direction, and the angle between the second direction and the positive direction of the c-axis in the coordinate system of the preset tangent direction is used as the in-plane Euler angle of the piezoelectric material. α , the c-axis is parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer is located, and the Euler angle is set α The value range of is a preset range, so that the piezoelectric coefficient of the piezoelectric layer 3 includes the piezoelectric coefficient matrix e 11 Quantity and e 34 Quantity, among which, e 11 The component is used to excite the longitudinal mode sound wave, e 34 The component is used to excite high-order shear mode sound waves, so that the sound waves excited by the piezoelectric layer 3 at least include longitudinal mode sound waves and high-order shear mode sound waves. However, the longitudinal mode sound waves and high-order shear mode sound waves excited only by the piezoelectric layer 3 are independent of each other and resonate at different frequencies.

[0076] After the coupling adjustment layer 2 is introduced, since the coupling adjustment layer 2 also participates in the mechanical vibration, the equivalent sound velocity (i.e., the phase velocity of sound wave propagation) of the whole composed of the piezoelectric layer 3 and the coupling adjustment layer 2 changes relative to the sound velocity of the single piezoelectric layer 3, that is, the introduction of the coupling adjustment layer 2 can change the sound velocity of the sound wave; and since the vibration displacements of the longitudinal modal sound waves and the high-order shear modal sound waves penetrate into the piezoelectric layer 3 and the coupling adjustment layer 2 at different depths, the coupling adjustment layer 2 has different effects on the sound velocities of the two modal sound waves, the longitudinal modal sound waves and the high-order shear modal sound waves.

[0077] Figure 3 FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram showing a partial cross-sectional structure of another acoustic wave resonator provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, it can be seen that the vibration displacement direction of the longitudinal mode sound wave is as follows Figure 3 As shown by the middle arrow, the vibration displacement direction of the high-order shear mode acoustic wave is mainly along the second direction N perpendicular to the extension direction of the interdigital electrode 4. Figure 3 As shown by the black dots and crosses in the middle circle, it is mainly along the extension direction of the interdigital electrode 4, that is, the first direction M; and it can be seen that the longitudinal modal sound waves mainly vibrate on the surface of the piezoelectric film, and the high-order shear modal sound waves vibrate in the entire piezoelectric layer 3 and the coupling adjustment layer 2, and the vibration displacements of the longitudinal modal sound waves and the high-order shear modal sound waves penetrate into the piezoelectric layer 3 and the coupling adjustment layer 2 at different depths.

[0078] Since the resonant frequency of an acoustic wave is determined by the speed of sound (i.e., the phase velocity of acoustic wave propagation), a coupling adjustment layer 2 made of suitable material and having a suitable thickness ratio to the piezoelectric layer can be provided to adjust the resonance of the longitudinal modal acoustic wave and the high-order shear modal acoustic wave to the same frequency, thereby achieving coupling of the two modal acoustic waves, and ultimately exciting acoustic waves including two mutually orthogonally polarized coupled modes in a specific propagation direction, thereby achieving dynamic adjustment of the operating frequency and electromechanical coupling coefficient of the acoustic wave resonator, and meeting the high frequency and large bandwidth requirements of the acoustic wave resonator in the centimeter wave communication band. In addition, the structural design of the acoustic wave resonator is simple, and the complexity and cost of device preparation can also be reduced.

[0079] As is known above, when the piezoelectric layer 3 is a lithium niobate layer, the preset tangent direction is selected as the X tangent direction, the c-axis is selected as the Y-axis in the coordinate system of the X tangent direction, and the angle between the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the interdigital electrode 4, that is, the second direction N and the positive direction of the Y-axis in the coordinate system of the X tangent direction is taken as the Euler angle α , select the Euler angles α Satisfaction: 10°≤ α ≤90°, or -170°≤ α ≤-90°, the piezoelectric coefficient of the piezoelectric layer 3 of the lithium niobate material can include the piezoelectric coefficient matrix e 11 Quantity and e 34 Quantity, so that e 11 The component is used to excite the longitudinal mode sound wave, e 34 The component is used to excite high-order shear mode acoustic waves. On this basis, considering that the acoustic velocity of the coupling adjustment layer 2 represents the phase velocity of the acoustic wave propagating in the coupling adjustment layer 2, the acoustic velocity of the coupling adjustment layer 2 v It is expressed as:

[0080] (2)

[0081] in, E is the Young's modulus of the material of the coupling adjustment layer 2, ρis the density of the material of the coupling adjustment layer 2; it can be understood that when the material of the coupling adjustment layer 2 is determined, the Young's modulus of the coupling adjustment layer 2 is E and density ρ will be determined, the speed of sound in coupling adjustment layer 2 v It's confirmed.

[0082] The inventors have found through experiments that a coupling adjustment layer 2 of a suitable material can be provided to make the acoustic velocity of the coupling adjustment layer 2 v Meet: 1000m / s≤ v ≤15600m / s, including the endpoint value, so that the resonance of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave can be adjusted to the same frequency, so as to achieve the coupling of these two mode sound waves, and finally excite the sound waves including two mutually orthogonal polarization coupling modes in a specific propagation direction.

[0083] In the present application, the coupling adjustment layer 2 can be a silicon dioxide (SiO2) layer, or a (Si) silicon layer, or a polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) layer, or a silicon nitride (Si3N4) layer, or a sapphire (Al2O3) layer, or a composite layer consisting of at least two layers of a silicon dioxide layer, a silicon layer, a polycrystalline silicon layer, a silicon nitride layer and a sapphire layer.

[0084] Furthermore, considering that the vibration displacements of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave penetrate into the piezoelectric layer 3 and the coupling adjustment layer 2 at different depths, the coupling adjustment layer 2 has different effects on the sound velocities of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave. The inventors found through experimental research that, Figure 1 As shown, when the thickness of the coupling adjustment layer 2 h med The thickness of the piezoelectric layer 3 h piezo Ratio h med / h piezo Satisfaction: 3% ≤ h med / h piezo When ≤100%, the resonance of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave can be adjusted to the same frequency, so as to achieve the coupling of the two mode sound waves, and finally stimulate the sound waves including two mutually orthogonal polarization coupling modes in a specific propagation direction.

[0141] In summary, the acoustic wave resonator provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a substrate and a coupling adjustment layer, a piezoelectric layer and an interdigital electrode arranged in sequence on one side of the substrate, the extension direction of the interdigital electrode is a first direction, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and the first direction and the second direction are parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer is located, by setting the material of the piezoelectric layer to an anisotropic piezoelectric material, and the tangent direction of the piezoelectric material is a preset tangent direction, and the angle between the second direction and the positive direction of the c-axis in the coordinate system of the preset tangent direction is used as the in-plane Euler angle of the piezoelectric material α , the c-axis is parallel to the plane where the piezoelectric layer is located, and the Euler angle is set α The value range of is a preset range, so that the piezoelectric coefficient of the piezoelectric layer includes the piezoelectric coefficient matrix e 11 Quantity and e 34 Quantity, among which, e 11The component is used to excite the longitudinal mode sound wave, e 34 The component is used to excite high-order shear mode sound waves, so that the sound waves excited by the piezoelectric layer include at least longitudinal mode sound waves and high-order shear mode sound waves. Although the longitudinal mode sound waves and high-order shear mode sound waves excited only by the piezoelectric layer are independent of each other and resonate at different frequencies, after the coupling adjustment layer is introduced, since the coupling adjustment layer also participates in the mechanical vibration, the equivalent sound velocity (i.e., the phase velocity of sound wave propagation) of the whole composed of the piezoelectric layer and the coupling adjustment layer changes relative to the sound velocity of the single piezoelectric layer, that is, the introduction of the coupling adjustment layer can change the sound velocity of the sound wave. Since the vibration displacement of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave penetrates into the piezoelectric layer and the coupling adjustment layer at different depths, the coupling adjustment layer has a great influence on the two modes of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave. The sound velocity of the state sound wave is affected differently, and the resonant frequency of the sound wave is determined by the sound velocity. Therefore, a coupling adjustment layer with a suitable material and a suitable thickness ratio to the piezoelectric layer can be set to adjust the resonance of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave to the same frequency, so as to achieve the coupling of the two modal sound waves, and finally excite sound waves including two mutually orthogonal polarized coupled modes in a specific propagation direction, so as to realize the dynamic adjustment of the operating frequency and electromechanical coupling coefficient of the acoustic wave resonator, and meet the high frequency and large bandwidth requirements of the acoustic wave resonator in the centimeter wave communication band. In addition, the structural design of the acoustic wave resonator is simple, and the complexity and cost of device preparation can be reduced.

[0142] When the piezoelectric layer is a lithium niobate layer, the preset tangent direction is selected as the X tangent direction, the c-axis in the coordinate system of the X tangent direction is the Y-axis, and the angle between the second direction and the positive direction of the Y-axis in the coordinate system of the X tangent direction is taken as the Euler angle α , select the Euler angles α Satisfaction: 10°≤ α ≤90°, or -170°≤ α ≤-90°, the piezoelectric coefficient of the piezoelectric layer of the lithium niobate material can be included in the piezoelectric coefficient matrix e 11 Quantity and e 34 Quantity, so that e 11 The component is used to excite the longitudinal mode sound wave, e 34 The component is used to excite high-order shear mode sound waves; on this basis, a coupling adjustment layer of suitable material can be set to make the sound velocity of the coupling adjustment layer v Meet: 1000m / s≤ v≤15600m / s, including the end value, and considering that the vibration displacement of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave penetrates into the piezoelectric layer and the coupling adjustment layer at different depths, the coupling adjustment layer has different effects on the sound velocity of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave. When the thickness of the coupling adjustment layer is h med The thickness of the piezoelectric layer h piezo Ratio h med / h piezo Satisfaction: 3% ≤ h med / h piezo When ≤100%, the resonance of the longitudinal mode sound wave and the high-order shear mode sound wave can be adjusted to the same frequency, so as to achieve the coupling of the two mode sound waves, and finally stimulate the sound waves including two mutually orthogonal polarization coupling modes in a specific propagation direction.
