Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electroacoustic conversion devices, and in particular to a MEMS element and an electroacoustic conversion device. Background Art

[0003] When the dual diaphragm structure is subjected to high pressure (from falling or air impact - about 1 MPa), the diaphragm will be subjected to high upward or downward displacement (about tens of microns) accordingly. Under such high displacement, high stress will appear locally in the diaphragm and cracks may be generated in the material, which will damage the structure and eventually damage the microphone.

[0049] Reference Figures 1 to 4 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a MEMS element. The MEMS element includes a plurality of spacers 11, a plurality of counter electrodes 12, a first diaphragm 2 and a second diaphragm 3. The plurality of spacers 11 and the plurality of counter electrodes 12 are arranged along a first direction, are located in the same horizontal plane, and are alternately arranged on the cross section of the MEMS element. A gap is left between adjacent counter electrodes 12 and spacers 11 to form a narrow groove 13. The first diaphragm 2 and the second diaphragm 3 have similar corrugated structures, each including a plurality of protrusions arranged at intervals along the first direction, and each protrusion extends in opposite directions in the second direction. In addition, the first diaphragm 2 is arranged opposite to the second diaphragm 3 and is airtightly connected. In which, the first direction is expressed as radial or transverse, and the second direction is expressed as vertical.
[0050] For the convenience of description, the protrusion of the first diaphragm 2 may be referred to as the first protrusion 21, and the protrusion of the second diaphragm 3 may be referred to as the second protrusion 31. The first protrusion 21 and the second protrusion 31 may have the same shape and size. On the surface perpendicular to the first diaphragm 2 and the second diaphragm 3 (i.e., the surface in the second direction), the shape of the first protrusion 21 and the second protrusion 31 may be a rectangle, a trapezoid, a triangle, etc.
[0051] The portion between two adjacent first protrusions 21 on the first diaphragm 2 is called the first portion 22 (i.e., the portion on the first diaphragm 2 other than the first protrusions 21), and the portion between two adjacent second protrusions 31 on the second diaphragm 3 is called the second portion 32 (i.e., the portion on the second diaphragm 3 other than the second protrusions 31). The first portion 22 and the second portion 32 may have the same shape and size, for example, may be flat. Therefore, the first portion 22 and the second portion 32 may have the same length.
[0052] The first protrusion 21 and the second protrusion 31 are aligned with each other to form a cavity 41, and the counter electrode 12 is suspended in the cavity 41. The first portion 22 is aligned with the second portion 32, respectively, and connected by the spacer 11. In other words, one end of the spacer 11 is connected to the first portion 22, and the other end is connected to the second portion 32, that is, the spacer 11 is sandwiched between the first portion 22 and the second portion 32.
[0053] The spacer 11 may be a pillar, etc. The spacer 11 may be formed integrally with the first diaphragm 2 or the second diaphragm 3. Alternatively, after the first diaphragm 2 and the second diaphragm 3 are assembled together, the spacer 11 is formed between them.
[0054] It should be noted that the first diaphragm 2 and the second diaphragm 3 are both corrugated conductive diaphragms with the same shape and size, and can generally be circular. In some embodiments, the first diaphragm 2 and the second diaphragm 3 are divided into six parts in the circumferential direction, and the adjacent parts are connected to each other by spokes 4 extending along the radial direction of the diaphragm (i.e., the first direction). In other words, the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm may further include a plurality of spokes 4. In some other embodiments, the first diaphragm 2 and the second diaphragm 3 may also have other shapes, such as square, hexagonal, octagonal, etc., which are not limited here.
[0055] In some embodiments, the first corrugated conductive diaphragm 2 and the second corrugated conductive diaphragm 3 may be made of a conductive material or include an insulating film on which a conductive element is provided. For example, the first corrugated conductive diaphragm 2 and the second corrugated conductive diaphragm 3 include a silicon nitride film, wherein a polysilicon electrode is formed on the surface of the diaphragm facing the counter electrode 12 to provide conductivity.
[0056] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, the first corrugated conductive diaphragm 2 includes a plurality of first protrusions 21 and a plurality of first portions alternately arranged along a first direction, and the second corrugated conductive diaphragm 3 includes a plurality of second protrusions 31 and a plurality of second portions alternately arranged along the first direction. The second protrusions 31 extend in a direction away from the first protrusions 21, while the second portions 32 extend in a direction toward the first portions 21. Since the first protrusions 21 and the second protrusions 31 have the same shape and size, and the first portions 22 and the second portions 32 also have the same shape and size, the first corrugated conductive diaphragm 2 and the second corrugated conductive diaphragm 3 have the same length.
[0057] It should be noted that the tops of the first protrusion 21 and the second protrusion 32 are, for example, but not limited to, flat. Figures 2 to 4 In some other embodiments, the tops of the first protrusion 21 and the second protrusion 32 may also be V-shaped, arched or arc-shaped protrusions, which are not limited here.
[0058] The protrusions of the first diaphragm 2 and the second diaphragm 3 respectively include front walls and rear walls arranged opposite to each other along the first direction. For ease of description, the front wall and rear wall of the first protrusion 21 can be referred to as the first front wall 211 and the first rear wall 212, and the front wall and rear wall of the second protrusion 31 can be referred to as the second front wall 311 and the second rear wall 312.
[0059] The inclination angles of the first front wall 211 , the first rear wall 212 , the second front wall 311 , and the second rear wall 312 may be greater than 0° but less than or equal to 90°.
[0060] Since the corners where the diaphragm is connected to the front wall and the rear wall will have local high stress when the diaphragm is subjected to high pressure, it will cause damage to the structure. Therefore, in some embodiments, at least part of the front wall or the rear wall is set to a sub-corrugated structure 5. Specifically, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, at least a portion of the first front wall 211 , the first rear wall 212 , the second front wall 311 or the second rear wall 312 is a sub-corrugated structure 5 .
[0061] When the diaphragm is subjected to high pressure, the sub-corrugated structure 5 can effectively reduce the local stress through its own buffering, thereby effectively reducing the maximum stress applied to the diaphragm under high pressure shock (drop, air shock), and ultimately improving the mechanical robustness of the device.
[0062] When the MEMS element is subjected to high pressure (e.g., from falling or air impact, up to 1 MPa), the inclined surfaces of the protrusions corresponding to the outermost and second outermost spacers 11 are subjected to the greatest local stress impact. Therefore, preferably, the front wall and the rear wall adjacent to the first and second parts of the outermost or second outermost spacers 11 connected to the first and second diaphragms are provided with sub-corrugated structures 5. In this case, the MEMS element can effectively reduce the local stress while better maintaining the original characteristics.
[0063] In some embodiments, the front wall and the rear wall adjacent to the first and second parts of the outermost two or three circles of the spacer 11 connected to the first and second diaphragms can be set as a sub-corrugated structure. In some embodiments, the front wall and the rear wall adjacent to the first and second parts of all the spacers connected to the first and second diaphragms can be set as a sub-corrugated structure.
[0064] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in order to maintain the consistency of the diaphragm extending in the radial direction or in the lateral direction, in some embodiments, the sub-corrugated structures 5 are also arranged along the first direction. However, in some other embodiments, the corrugated structures 5 can also be arranged in a manner that forms a certain angle (e.g., 0° to 30°) with the first direction, for example, along Figure 2 The original extension direction of the front wall or the rear wall is not limited here.
[0065] The sub-corrugated structure 5 includes a third peak 51 and a third valley 52 connected to each other along a first direction. The third peak 51 extends in a direction away from the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm, respectively, and the third valley 52 extends in a direction toward the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm, respectively. Specifically, the third peak 51 is connected to the first portion 22 and the second portion 32, and the third valley 52 is connected to the top of the first protrusion 21 and the second protrusion 31. The connection here means that the first portion 22 and the second portion 32 are each connected to a third peak 51, and the third valley 52 is respectively connected to the top of the first protrusion 21 and the second protrusion 31.
[0066] The height of the third peak 51 is less than or equal to the height of the first protrusion 21 and the second protrusion 31. In some embodiments, the height of the third peak 51 is the same as the height of the first protrusion 21 and the second protrusion 31. The height described here refers to the highest point.
[0067] The bottom of the third valley 52 is not lower than the height of the first portion 22 and the second portion 32. In some embodiments, the bottom of the third valley 52 is in the same plane as the first portion 22 and the second portion 32.
[0068] In some embodiments, the top of the third peak 51 and the bottom of the third valley 52 may be conical or flat.
[0069] In some embodiments, the length of the sub-corrugated structure 5 in the first direction is less than the length of the first protrusion 21, the second protrusion 31, the first portion 22, or the second portion 32. For example, including but not limited to, the length of the sub-corrugated structure 5 in the first direction may be 1 / 2, 1 / 3, 1 / 4, 2 / 3, 3 / 4, 2 / 5, 4 / 5, etc. of the length of the first protrusion 21, the second protrusion 31, the first portion 22, or the second portion 32.
[0070] In some embodiments, the sub-corrugated structure 5 may be integrally formed with the first diaphragm 2 and / or the second diaphragm 3 .
[0071] like Figure 4 As shown, a gap is usually left between the sub-corrugated structure 5 at the first front wall 211 of the first protrusion 21 and the sub-corrugated structure 5 at the second front wall 311 of the second protrusion 31, and the electrode 12 can also be suspended in the gap, that is, at least a part of the electrode 12 is arranged between the sub-corrugated structure 5 of the first diaphragm 2 and the sub-corrugated structure 5 of the second diaphragm 3 opposite thereto, and the two opposite surfaces of the electrode 12 are not in contact with the sub-corrugated structures 5 of the first diaphragm 2 and the second diaphragm 3.
[0072] Since the sub-corrugated structure 5 has an additional bending freedom, it is allowed to have a different deformation from the double diaphragm structure and release stress through the deformation. Therefore, the stress at the corner where the first protrusion 21 or the second protrusion 31 is connected to the respective diaphragm can be shared, thereby ultimately reducing the maximum stress of the diaphragm. At the same time, the MEMS element can also maintain its original stiffness and performance.
[0073] Another embodiment of the present invention provides an electroacoustic conversion device, including the above-mentioned MEMS element, and a circuit electrically connected to the MEMS element. The electroacoustic conversion device can be a MMEMS microphone or a speaker. Although the present invention is described with reference to one or more embodiments, the above description of the embodiments is only used to enable those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. The embodiments described above should not be interpreted as limitations on the present invention, and the scope of the present invention should be determined with reference to the appended claims.
