Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of microelectronic technology, and in particular to a high-order acoustic wave filter and a communication device using the same. Background Art
[0002] Modern wireless communication systems are gradually developing towards higher frequencies, which puts higher requirements on some performance of RF filters, such as operating frequency, insertion loss, bandwidth, in-band flatness, out-of-band suppression, power tolerance, temperature stability and other performance.
[0003] However, the operating frequency of the existing bulk acoustic wave (BAW) filter is inversely proportional to the thickness of the piezoelectric film, so in order to increase its operating frequency, it is often achieved by reducing the thickness of the piezoelectric film. However, too thin piezoelectric films have problems with mechanical stability. The 0th order surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter is limited by the target mode sound velocity, and its operating frequency is difficult to increase. In addition, although the high-order acoustic wave mode filter based on the longitudinal electric field excitation of the high sound velocity support substrate has advantages in frequency, bandwidth, area, and mechanical stability, due to the large bandwidth of this filter, the frequency difference between the series resonator and the parallel resonator that constitute the filter is large, and the higher sound velocity mode and its longitudinal mode in the 0th order mode may appear near the passband or even in the passband; this will cause ripples in the passband and transition band of the filter, or a significant decrease in the out-of-band suppression level.

And for the parasitic response in the high frequency band, the related parasitic response can be weakened due to the increase in loss in the high frequency band. At the same time, these resonators satisfy that the product of λ and the upper cutoff frequency of the filter is less than the fast shear wave sound velocity of the supporting substrate, so the passband of the filter is almost unaffected. As a result, the main mode of some resonators leaks to the supporting substrate in the non-working frequency band, and the frequency of the parasitic response can be changed or the parasitic response can be weakened without sacrificing the passband of the filter, thereby increasing the electrode finger spacing λ of the top forked electrode required at the same working frequency and reducing the requirements for photolithography accuracy.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

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.
[0074] The term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present application. In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "top", "bottom", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, which is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used only for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, the features defined as "first" and "second" may include one or more of the features explicitly or implicitly. Moreover, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described here can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here.
[0075] When a numerical range is disclosed herein, the above range is deemed to be continuous and includes the minimum and maximum values of the range, as well as each value between such minimum and maximum values. Further, when a range refers to an integer, each integer between the minimum and maximum values of the range is included.

Exemplary sub-ranges of ranges 1 to 10 include, but are not limited to, 1 to 6.1, 3.5 to 7.8, 5.5 to 10, etc.
[0076] Generally, when the existing acoustic wave resonator is a high-order acoustic wave mode excited by a longitudinal electric field, in order to ensure that the main mode does not leak to the supporting substrate, the phase velocity of the main mode is specified to be less than the slow shear wave sound velocity of the supporting substrate. However, due to the large bandwidth of the filter composed of the above-mentioned acoustic wave resonator, the 0th order mode with a higher sound velocity (such as the SAW longitudinal leakage surface acoustic wave (LL-SAW) mode and the longitudinal mode corresponding to the LL-SAW) will exist as a parasitic mode in or near the filter passband.
[0077] To this end, the present application provides a novel filter structure, by making the λ of some resonators constituting the filter and the anti-resonance frequency f pThe product of is greater than the slow shear wave velocity v of the supporting substrate ss , that is, the phase velocity is greater than the slow shear wave velocity v of the supporting substrate ss As λ increases, the 0th order mode and its longitudinal mode will move to low frequency, thus moving away from the passband, achieving the purpose of removing or weakening parasitic responses. The main mode of these resonators will leak a lot to the supporting substrate at the anti-resonance frequency, and the Q value will decrease. But at the same time, these resonators meet the resonator's λ and the filter upper cutoff frequency f H The product of is less than the fast shear wave speed v of the supporting substrate fs , which ensures that the filter passband is barely affected.
[0078] For details, please refer to Figure 1-2 The high-order acoustic wave filter provided in the present application includes at least two resonators; the at least two resonators include at least one series resonator 1 and at least one parallel resonator 2; the resonator includes a supporting substrate 3, a bottom electrode 4, a piezoelectric film 5 and a top electrode 6 arranged in sequence from bottom to top; the top electrode 6 is a forked electrode; the target mode of the resonator is a high-order acoustic wave mode generated by the excitation of a longitudinal electric field; wherein all resonators in the high-order acoustic wave filter satisfy a first parameter condition; and there is at least one resonator in the high-order acoustic wave filter that satisfies a second parameter condition; the first parameter condition includes: the product of the electrode finger spacing of the resonator and the resonant frequency of the resonator is less than the longitudinal wave sound velocity v of the supporting substrate 3 L ; The electrode finger spacing of the resonator is the distance between the centers of adjacent electrode fingers 603 on the same bus bar of the interdigitated electrode; The second parameter condition includes: the product of the electrode finger spacing of the resonator and the antiresonance frequency of the resonator is greater than the slow shear wave sound velocity v of the supporting substrate 3 ss In this way, not only the influence of the parasitic mode of the resonator can be reduced, but also the passband of the filter can be ensured to be almost unaffected. Moreover, since λ can be increased as much as possible, the requirement of the photolithography precision of the top electrode 6 is also reduced.
[0079] Exemplarily, the lower cutoff frequency of the high-order mode acoustic wave filter is f L , the upper cutoff frequency is f H , f L and f H The frequency range between is the passband of the filter, where the upper cutoff frequency f H Indicates the highest frequency of the filter passband; the lower cutoff frequency is f L Represents the lowest frequency of the filter passband.

There is also a strong S1 mode near 8.7GHz, which will lead to a decrease in the out-of-band suppression level.
[0097] Another comparative example 2 is provided, which corresponds to Figure 4 The structure shown in FIG. 1 is a series resonator 1, and the electrode finger spacing of the top electrode 6 can be recorded as λ s , the material of the supporting substrate 3 is 4H-SiC, and the slow shear wave velocity v of the supporting substrate 3 is ss =7119m / s, fast shear wave speed v fs =7787m / s; the material of the dielectric layer 7 is silicon oxide, with a thickness of 100nm; the material of the bottom electrode 4 is tungsten, with a thickness of 35nm; the material of the piezoelectric film 5 is X-cut lithium niobate, with a thickness of 150nm; the top electrode 6 is 50nm of chromium, λ p =0.9μm, the main mode is SH1 mode, due to the anti-resonance frequency f of comparative example 2 p Close to v ss / λ s If we want to ensure that the main mold does not leak to the supporting substrate 3, it is difficult to further increase λ s . The following relevant calculations can be performed to obtain Figure 6 From the admittance curve and conductance curve shown, it can be seen that the LL-SAW mode appears near 5.8 GHz, which will cause severe fluctuations in the left transition band.
[0098] Another comparative example 3 is provided, which is a high-order acoustic wave filter, specifically corresponding to Figure 2 The topological structure shown in FIG. 1 includes three series resonators 1 and two parallel resonators 2, and the series resonator 1 included in Comparative Example 3 is the above-mentioned Comparative Example 2, and the parallel resonator 2 is the above-mentioned Comparative Example 1. Further, by Figure 7 The transmission coefficient (S21) curve of the high-order acoustic wave filter shown in the figure shows that, near 5.8 GHz, the LL-SAW mode of the series resonator 1 causes severe fluctuations in the transition band on the left side of the filter passband. Near 8.7 GHz, the S1 mode of the parallel resonator 2 causes the out-of-band suppression level of the corresponding frequency to decrease. Furthermore, by Figure 7 By zooming in on the local part of the S21 curve in Figure 8 As shown in the S21 graph, the longitudinal mode of the LL-SAW mode of the parallel resonator 2 causes fluctuations in the filter passband.
[0099] A set of series resonators 1 is also provided, which corresponds to Figure 4 The structure shown in FIG. 1 is a structure in which the difference between the resonators in the group of resonators is only the electrode finger spacing λ. sThe specific structural parameters of each resonator in the series resonator group are as follows: the material of the support substrate 3 is 4H-SiC; the material of the dielectric layer 7 is silicon oxide, with a thickness of 100nm; the material of the bottom electrode 4 is tungsten, with a thickness of 35nm; the material of the piezoelectric film 5 is X-cut lithium niobate; the top electrode 6 is 50nm chromium, and the main mode is SH1 mode. Specifically, the series resonator group 1 includes 5 resonators, and the λ of these 5 resonators is s They are 0.90 μm, 0.95 μm, 1.00 μm, 1.05 μm, and 1.10 μm, respectively. In order to ensure the same resonant frequency, the corresponding thicknesses of the piezoelectric film 5 are 150 nm, 145 nm, 140 nm, 135 nm, and 131 nm, respectively. That is, λ s The smaller the thickness of the corresponding piezoelectric film 5 is, the thicker it is. Fig. 9 The admittance curve of this set of series resonators is shown in Figure 2. It can be seen that the frequency of the SH1 mode remains unchanged, while the frequency of the LL-SAW mode increases with λ s increases and decreases. s When >0.919μm, the anti-resonance frequency of the main mode is f p With λ s The product of is greater than the slow shear wave velocity v of the supporting substrate 3 ss , the SH1 mode near the antiresonance frequency leaks to the substrate, so as λ s increases, and the admittance ratio of the main mode decreases significantly.
[0100] Fig. 9 The medium gray shaded area represents the passband of the filter. s When <1.09μm, the upper cutoff frequency f of the filter H With λ s The product of is less than the fast shear wave speed v of the supporting substrate 3 fs Therefore, although the leakage degree of the main mode near the antiresonance frequency is different, λ s The admittance curves corresponding to 0.90-1.05 μm almost overlap within the filter passband frequency range.
[0101] See also Fig.10 , which is shown as Fig. 9 The corresponding conductance curve shows that as λ s As λ increases, the conductance near the antiresonance frequency increases, which indicates an increase in the corresponding frequency loss. s The conductivity curves corresponding to 0.90-1.05 μm almost overlap within the filter passband frequency range.
[0102] See also Fig.11 , which is shown as Fig. 9The corresponding Bode-Q curve shows that as λ s increases, the Q value near the anti-resonance frequency decreases, but λ s The Bode-Q curves corresponding to 0.90 to 1.05 μm almost overlap within the filter passband frequency range.
[0103] See also Fig.12 , which is shown as Fig. 9 The corresponding vibration mode diagrams of each resonator near the anti-resonance frequency are taken at a frequency of 7750MHz. It can be seen that for λ s =0.90μm, due to the anti-resonance frequency f p With λ s The product of is less than v ss , the main mode hardly leaks to the supporting substrate 3, and the loss near the antiresonance frequency is low. s =0.95μm, f p With λ s The product of is greater than ν ss , but f p With λ s The product is still less than the fast shear wave speed ν fs, The leakage of the main mode to the supporting substrate 3 increases. s For ≥1.00μm, f p With λ s The product of is not only greater than v ss , is greater than v fs At this time, the main mold has completely leaked into the supporting substrate 3. Fig.11 It can be seen that the Q value of the corresponding frequency is almost 0.
[0104] See also Fig.13 , which is shown as Fig. 9 The corresponding vibration mode diagram of each resonator near the cutoff frequency of the filter is taken at a frequency of 7125MHz. It can be seen that for λ s is 0.90μm and 0.95μm, due to the upper cutoff frequency f H With λ s The product of is less than v ss , the main mode hardly leaks to the supporting substrate 3. s For 1.00μm and 1.05μm, f H With λ s The product of is greater than v ss , but f p With λ s The product is still less than the fast shear wave speed v fs, The leakage of the main mode to the supporting substrate 3 increases, but the loss remains at a low level. s When f is 1.10 μm,p With λ s The product of is not only greater than v ss , is greater than v fs At this time, the main mold has completely leaked into the supporting substrate 3. Fig.11 It can be seen that the corresponding Bode-Q curve has dropped to almost 0 at the edge of the filter passband.
[0105] See also Fig.14 , which shows the frequency response of the first high-order acoustic wave filter of the present application, which is Figure 7 The difference is that Fig.14 The λ of the series resonator of the high-order acoustic wave filter s It is 0.95μm. From the S21 curve, it can be seen that since the frequency of the LL-SAW mode of the series resonator 1 drops to near the zero point of the filter, its response in the filter is greatly weakened. H The frequency band has not yet leaked, and the passband performance of the filter is Figure 7 There is almost no difference.
[0106] See also Fig.15 , which shows the frequency response of the second exemplary high-order acoustic wave filter of the present application, which is Figure 7 The difference is that Fig.15 The top electrode spacing of the series resonator of the high-order acoustic wave filter is 6 λ s is 1.00μm. From the S21 curve, it can be seen that the LL-SAW mode of series resonator 1 is Fig.14 It further decreases, but is still near zero, and its response in the filter is still greatly weakened. H The frequency band has not yet leaked, and the passband performance of the filter is Figure 7 There is almost no difference.
[0107] See also Fig.16 , which shows the frequency response of the third exemplary high-order acoustic wave filter of the present application, which is Figure 7 The difference is that Fig.16 The top electrode 6 spacing of the series resonator of the high-order acoustic wave filter is λ s It can be seen from the S21 curve that the LL-SAW mode of series resonator 1 is relatively Fig.15 It further decreases, but is still near zero, and its response in the filter is still greatly weakened. ss / λ s <f H <v fs / λ s , there is a small amount of leakage on the high-frequency side of the filter passband, but the increase in loss is very small, and the filter passband performance is similar to Figure 7 Still almost no difference.
[0108] See also Fig.17 , which shows the frequency response of the fourth exemplary high-order acoustic wave filter of the present application, which is Figure 7 The difference is that Fig.17 The top electrode 6 spacing of the series resonator of the high-order acoustic wave filter is λ s is 1.10μm. From the S21 curve, it can be seen that the LL-SAW mode of series resonator 1 is Fig.16 Further decline, and has begun to move away from zero, relative to Fig.14 The out-of-band suppression level of this frequency has been reduced. H >v fs / λ s , there is a lot of leakage on the high-frequency side of the filter passband, and the loss on the high-frequency side of the filter passband is relatively Figure 7 Significant increase.
[0109] See also Fig.18 , which is shown as Figure 7 and Fig.16 From the comparison of the S21 curve in , we can see that when λ s When the frequency of the series resonator 1 is greater than f H The loss in the frequency band increases, and the parasitic response caused by the S1 mode of parallel resonator 2 is greatly reduced. For further information, please refer to Fig.19 , which is shown as Fig.18 From the local enlarged view of the S21 curve, it can be seen that within the passband of the filter, only the loss on the high-frequency side increases slightly.
[0110] See also Fig. 20 , which is shown as Figure 7 and Fig.17 From the comparison of the S21 curve in , we can see that when λ s When the transition band is 1.10μm, the flatness of the transition band and the out-of-band suppression are improved. For further information, please refer to Fig.21 , which is shown as Fig. 20 The local enlarged diagram of the S21 curve shows that within the passband of the filter, the loss on the high-frequency side increases significantly, which directly leads to a significant reduction in the effective bandwidth of the filter.
[0111] Through the performance analysis of the above-mentioned set of series resonators 1 and the corresponding high-order filters, it can be seen that the series resonator 1 can satisfy f H <v fs / λ s Under the premise of flexibly selecting the top electrode 6 spacing λs In order to reduce the requirements of lithography accuracy and improve power tolerance, it is usually possible to increase λ as much as possible. s In order to make the LL-SAW parasitic mode appear near the zero point of the filter to weaken the related parasitic response, the λ of the series resonator 1 can be selected s More than v fs / f P In addition, the series resonator 1 is larger than f H The loss in the frequency band increases, and the parasitic response caused by the S1 mode of parallel resonator 2 is also greatly weakened.
[0112] A set of parallel resonators 2 is also provided, which corresponds to Figure 4 The structure shown in FIG. 1 shows that the difference between the resonators in the group of resonators is only the electrode finger spacing λ. p and the thickness of the piezoelectric film 5. The specific structural parameters of each resonator in the group of parallel resonators 2 are as follows: the material of the supporting substrate 3 is 4H-SiC, the longitudinal wave sound velocity v L is 12484m / s; the material of the dielectric layer 7 is silicon oxide, with a thickness of 100nm; the material of the bottom electrode 4 is tungsten, with a thickness of 35nm; the material of the piezoelectric film 5 is X-cut lithium niobate; the top electrode 6 is 50nm chromium, and the main mode is the SH1 mode. Specifically, the group of parallel resonators 2 includes 5 resonators, and the λ of these 5 resonators is p They are 1.00 μm, 1.05 μm, 1.10 μm, and 1.15 μm respectively. In order to ensure the same resonance frequency, the corresponding thicknesses of the piezoelectric film 5 are 223 nm, 216 nm, 210 nm, and 204 nm respectively. That is, λ p The smaller the thickness of the corresponding piezoelectric film 5 is, the thicker it is. Fig. 22 The admittance curve of this set of parallel resonators is shown. It can be seen that the frequency of LL-SAW increases with λ p The sound velocity of the S1 mode is lower than the longitudinal wave sound velocity v of the supporting substrate 3. L , so it will not leak completely to the supporting substrate 3, but will increase with λ p For example, λ p When f is 1.00μm and 1.05μm, H With λ p The product of is greater than v ss , but f H With λ p The product is still less than the fast shear wave speed v of the supporting substrate 3 fs , the loss is small, and the two admittance curves basically overlap within the filter passband frequency range. p When the filter is 1.10μm and 1.15μm, the upper cutoff frequency f H With λp The product of is greater than the fast shear wave speed ν of the supporting substrate 3 fs , so the admittance curve is similar to λ in the passband frequency range. p =1.00μm, there is no overlap.
[0113] See also Fig.23 , which is shown as Fig. 22 Corresponding to the conductivity curve, it can be seen that λ p The conductivity curves corresponding to 1.00-1.05μm almost overlap within the filter passband frequency range. p When f H The conductance values nearby increase, which indicates an increase in losses at the corresponding frequency.
[0114] See also Fig.24 , which is shown as Fig. 22 The corresponding Bode-Q curve shows that as λ p Increase, f H The Q value decreases near λ p It drops to almost 0 when it reaches 1.1μm.
[0115] See also Fig.25 , which is shown as Fig. 22 The corresponding vibration mode diagram of each resonator near the cutoff frequency of the filter is taken at a frequency of 7125MHz. p For 1.00μm and 1.05μm, f H With λ p The product of is greater than v ss , but f p With λ p The product is still less than the fast shear wave speed v fs, The leakage of the main mode to the supporting substrate 3 increases, but the loss remains at a low level. p When f is 1.10μm and 1.15μm, p With λ p The product of is not only greater than v ss , is greater than v fs At this time, the main mold has completely leaked into the supporting substrate 3. Fig.24 It can be seen that the corresponding Bode-Q curve has dropped to almost 0 at the edge of the filter passband.
[0116] See also Fig.26 , which shows the frequency response of the fifth high-order acoustic wave filter of the present application, and Fig.16 The difference is that Fig.26 The electrode finger spacing λ of the parallel resonator of the high-order acoustic wave filter pIt is 1.05μm. From the S21 curve, it can be seen that since the S1 mode of the parallel resonator 2 is smaller than λ p When it is 1.00μm, it is weakened, and the out-of-band fluctuation in the filter caused by it is also significantly weakened. ss / λ p <f H <v fs / λ p , there is a small amount of leakage on the high-frequency side of the filter passband, but the increase in loss is very small, and the filter passband performance is similar to Figure 7 Almost no deterioration in comparison.
[0117] See also Fig. 27 , which shows the frequency response of the sixth high-order acoustic wave filter of the present application, and Fig.16 The difference is that Fig. 27 The λ of the parallel resonator of the high-order acoustic wave filter p is 1.10μm. From the S21 curve, it can be seen that the LL-SAW mode of series resonator 1 is Fig.26 Further decline, and has begun to move away from zero, relative to Fig.26 The out-of-band suppression level of this frequency has been reduced. H >v fs / λ p , there is a lot of leakage on the high-frequency side of the filter passband, and the loss on the high-frequency side of the filter passband is relatively Fig.26 Significant increase.
[0118] See also Fig.28 , which shows the frequency response of the seventh high-order acoustic wave filter of the present application, the frequency response of a high-order mode acoustic wave filter, and Fig.16 The difference is that Fig.28 The parallel resonator of the high-order acoustic wave filter λ p It can be seen from the S21 curve that due to the increase in the leakage frequency range, the loss on the high-frequency side of the filter passband is smaller than that of Fig. 27 Further increase.
[0119] See also Fig.29 , which is shown as an exemplary embodiment of the present application Fig.26 and Fig.16 The comparison of the S21 curves shows that when λ p When the frequency is 1.05 μm, the out-of-band suppression level of the corresponding frequency is further improved due to the weakening of the S1 mode of parallel resonator 2. For further information, please refer to Fig.30 , which is shown as Fig.29 The corresponding local enlarged view of the S21 curve, when λ pWhen the wavelength is 1.05 μm, the in-band loss hardly changes, and since the longitudinal mode frequency of the LL-SAW of the parallel resonator 2 is reduced to outside the passband, the in-band flatness of the filter is significantly improved.
[0120] See also Fig.31 , which shows the S21 curve of the eighth high-order acoustic wave filter of the present application and Fig.26 The comparison of S21 curves is shown in Figure 2. Fig.26 The corresponding high-order acoustic wave filter has a parallel resonator 2 composed of λ p By replacing the resonator with =1.10μm, the eighth high-order acoustic wave filter can be obtained. It can be seen that the out-of-band suppression level is further improved.
[0121] Through the performance analysis of the above-mentioned set of parallel resonators 2 and the corresponding high-order filters, it can be seen that for the parallel resonator 2, when f H >v fs / λ p It will also increase the loss on the high-frequency side of the filter passband, but the effect is weaker than that of the series resonator 1. p >v fs / f H Replacing the original resonator with a new resonator will not significantly deteriorate the passband performance and will help further improve the out-of-band suppression level.
