The present invention relates to a dielectric composition and an electronic component.
The MIMO (Multi-Input Multi-Output) technique which simultaneously utilizes a plurality of frequency bands has been put into use so as to provide a communication with a higher speed and a larger capacity in mobile communicating equipment which is represented by a smart phone or a tablet. Since each frequency band needs a RF component, if the frequency bands for communication are increased in number, in order to maintain the original size of the equipment where increased components are disposed, each component needs to be further downsized and provided with more functions.
Such an electronic component working at a high frequency can be, for example, a diplexer, a band-pass filter or the like. All of these components contain the combination of dielectric material(s) functioning as capacitor and magnetic material(s) functioning as inductor. In order to provide good high-frequency characteristics, each kinds of loss at a high-frequency region are required to be suppressed.
The requirements for the dielectric material are as follows. (1) According to the requirements for downsizing, the relative permittivity (εr) is required to be high in order to decrease the area of the capacitor. (2) The dielectric loss is required to be low, i.e., the Q value is required to be high in order to obtain a good selectivity in frequencies. (3) The breakdown voltage is required to be high.
For example, generally speaking, the Q value of the amorphous film of SiNx under a high frequency (2 GHz) is as high as about 500, and the breakdown voltage is as high as about 500 to 700 V/μm, thus, it can be widely used in the electronic components using under the high frequency. However, its relative permittivity (εr) is as low as about 7, so a large area is needed to provide the target functions. In this respect, it is hard to meet the downsizing requirements.
In Non-Patent Document 1, in the CaZrO3 film, a Ca-Zr-O amorphous film is formed by providing an annealing process after the film deposition. At this time, it is reported that the relative permittivity at 100 kHz of the Ca-Zr-O amorphous film is 12.8˜16.0, and the Q value is 370 to 555.
Non-Patent Document
Non-Patent Document 1: Science direct Physica B, 348(2004) 440-445, Preparation and charactarization of sol-gel derived CaZrO3 dielectric thin film for high-k applications.
In Non-Patent Document 1, the Q value is 370 to 555 at a measuring frequency of 100 kHz, and is 200 or below at a measuring frequency of 1 MHz. A tendency of the decreasing of the Q value accompanying with the increasing of the measuring frequency can be observed, thus, it can be predicted that the Q value will further decrease under 2 GHz. In addition, the breakdown voltage is as low as 260V/μm. As a result, the relative permittivity will be about 2 times or higher compared with the amorphous SiNx while the Q value and the breakdown voltage will not be improved.
The present invention has been completed in view of the actual conditions mentioned above. The present invention aims to provide a dielectric composition with a high relative permittivity, a high Q value, and a high breakdown voltage even under a field of a high frequency (2 GHz) and also an electronic component using the dielectric composition.
In order to achieve the mentioned aim, the dielectric composition according to the present invention is characterized in that it comprises a complex oxide represented by the formula of AαBβC2γOα+β+5γ (wherein A represents Ba, B represents at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ca and Sr, and C represents at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ta and Nb) as the main component, wherein α, β and γ meet the following relationship, α+β+γ=1.000, 0.000<α≦0.375, 0.625≦β<1.000 and 0.000≦γ≦0.375.
A high relative permittivity, a high Q value and a high breakdown voltage can be obtained even under the field of a high frequency (2 GHz) when the α, β and γ are within the range mentioned above.
Further, compared to the conventional dielectric composition used in an electronic component working at a high frequency, the use of the dielectric composition of the present invention can satisfy the requirements of downsizing because it can obtain a sufficiently high relative permittivity under a high frequency (2 GHz). Further, as the Q value is higher than the conventional dielectric composition, i.e., a higher S/N ratio is obtained, and further, the breakdown voltage is high, thus, an electronic component such as a dielectric resonator or a dielectric filter with a better performance can be provided.
According to the present invention, a dielectric composition with a high relative permittivity and Q value under a high frequency (2 GHz) and a high breakdown voltage can be provided and also an electronic component using the dielectric composition.
Hereinafter, the preferable embodiments of the present invention will be described particularly, but the present invention is not restricted by the embodiments.
(Film Capacitor 10)
The shape of the film capacitor is not particularly restricted and is usually cuboid. Further, its size is not particularly restricted. The thickness or the length can be appropriately set in accordance with specific uses.
(Supporting substrate 1)
There is no particular restriction on the material for forming supporting substrate 1 as shown in
(Foundation Layer 2)
In the present embodiment, it is preferred to have foundation layer 2 on the surface of supporting substrate 1 which has been provided with an insulating treatment. Foundation layer 2 is inserted to enhance the adhesion between supporting substrate 1 and lower electrode 3. As an example, Cr is usually inserted as foundation layer 2 when Cu is used in lower electrode 3 and Ti is usually inserted as foundation layer 2 when Pt is used as lower electrode 3.
Foundation layer 2 is not restricted to the above materials listed as examples because the purpose is to improve the adhesion between supporting substrate 1 and lower electrode 3. In addition, foundation layer 2 can be omitted if the adhesion between supporting substrate 1 and lower electrode 3 can be guaranteed.
(Lower electrode 3)
The material for forming lower electrode 3 is not particularly restricted as long as it is conductive. For instance, lower electrode 3 can be formed by metals such as Pt, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ir, Au, Ag, Cu, Ni and the like or the alloys thereof or the conductive oxides thereof In this respect, a material can be selected in accordance with the cost or the atmosphere during the thermal treatment for dielectric film 5. In addition to air, the thermal treatment for dielectric film 5 can also be carried out in an inert gas such as N2 or Ar, or a mixed gas of an inert gas and a reductive gas H2. The film thickness of lower electrode 3 is not particularly restricted as long as lower electrode 3 can function as an electrode. Further, the thickness is preferred to be 10 nm or more. A thickness less than 10 nm is not preferable because the conductivity will deteriorate in that case. In addition, when a substrate composed of Cu, Ni, Pt or the like or a conductive oxide material, which can be used as an electrode, is used as supporting substrate 1, foundation layer 2 and lower electrode 3 mentioned above can be omitted.
Lower electrode 3 is preferably formed by various film-deposition methods such as vacuum evaporation, sputtering, PLD . . . (Pulsed laser deposition), MO-CVD (Metal-organic chemical vapor deposition), MOD (Metal organic decomposition) or Sol-Gel, CSD (Chemical solution deposition) or the like. At that time, a trace of impurities or subcomponents may be contained in the starting material in use (i.e., the deposition material, various target materials, organometalic material and etc.), but no particular problem will arise as long as they are not impurities which will significantly deteriorate the conductivity.
A thermal treatment can be provided after the formation of the lower electrode 3 so as to improve the adhesion between foundation layer 2 and lower electrode 3 and also to improve the stability of lower electrode 3. When the thermal treatment is performed, the heating rate is preferably 10° C./min to 2000° C./min, and more preferably 100° C./min to 1000° C./min. The holding temperature during the thermal treatment is preferably 400° C. to 800° C., and the holding time is preferred to be 0.1 hour to 4.0 hours. If any parameter goes beyond the ranges mentioned above, the adhesion will not be good and the surface of lower electrode 3 will be uneven so that the dielectric properties of dielectric film 5 is likely to deteriorate.
(Dielectric Film 5)
The dielectric composition for forming dielectric film 5 comprises a complex oxide represented by the formula of AαBβC2γOα+β+5γ (wherein A represents Ba, B represents at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ca and Sr, and C represents at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ta and Nb) as the main component.
Further, α, β and γ of the dielectric composition meet the following relationship, i.e., α+β+γ=1.000, 0.000<α≦0.375, 0.625≦β<1.000 and 0.000≦γ≦0.375.
As the oxides of Ca or Sr which constitutes B of the formula, CaO or SrO are materials with high Q value and high breakdown voltage, but there is a problem for its low relative permittivity. Thus, in order to improve the relative permittivity, the inventors of the present invention find that the relative permittivity can be improved without decreasing the already obtained Q value and breakdown voltage by containing proper amount of BaO in the dielectric composition containing the mentioned CaO or SrO.
Further, it is found that the moisture resistance is improved by containing proper amount of Ta or Nb which constitutes C of the formula.
A dielectric composition with a high relative permittivity, a high Q value and a high breakdown voltage under a high frequency (2 GHz) can be obtained by controlling the relationship of α, β and γ of the dielectric composition meet the following relationship, i.e., α+β+γ=1.000, 0.000<α≦0.375, 0.625β<1.000 and 0.000≦γ≦0.375. It is preferred that α+β+γ=1.000, 0.005≦α≦0.375, 0.625≦β≦0.995 and 0.000≦γ≦0.375. On the other hand, if a is more than 0.375, a high Q value cannot be obtained and when α=0, an expected relative permittivity cannot be obtained. In addition, when β is less than 0.625, a high Q value cannot be obtained. Further, if γ exceeds 0.375, excessive Ta or Nb will form a different phase and the different phase will exist in the grain boundary in a large amount, thus, the high Q value cannot be maintained.
In addition, the relationship of α, β and γ of the dielectric composition is preferred to be as follows, i.e., α+β+γ=1.000, 0.000≦α≦0.375, 0.625≦β≦1.000 and 0.000≦γ≦0.375. That is, it is preferred to contain proper amount of Ta or Nb which constitutes C in the formula.
In this way, a dielectric composition can be obtained which can possess a high relative permittivity, a high Q value and a high breakdown voltage under a high frequency (2 GHz) and further have a high moisture resistance. That is, when the dielectric composition was provided with a pressure cooker test under a condition with a temperature of 121° C., a humidity of 95% RH and a pressure of 2 atm for 100 hours, the dielectric can still show an approximately equal character as the initial character.
In addition, in order to obtain a higher relative permittivity, the relationship of α, β and γ is preferred to be as follows, i.e., α+β+γ=1.000, 0.100≦α≦0.375, 0.625≦β≦0.900 and 0.000<γ≦0.275, and more preferably 0.100≦α≦0.375, 0.625≦β≦0.895 and 0.005≦γ≦0.275.
Further, in order to obtain a higher Q value, the relationship of α, β and γ is preferred to be as follows, i.e., α+β+γ=1.000, 0.000<α≦0.180, 0.770≦β<1.000 and 0.000<γ≦0.050, and more preferably 0.005≦α≦0.180, 0.770≦β≦0.990 and 0.005≦γ≦0.050.
Further, in order to obtain a higher breakdown voltage, the relationship of α, β and γ is preferred to be as follows, i.e., α+β+γ=1.000, 0.000<α≦0.215, 0.770≦β<1.000 and 0.000<γ≦0.015, and more preferably 0.005<α≦0.215, 0.770≦β≦0.990 and 0.005≦γ≦0.015.
Further, the relationship of α, β and γ is preferred to be as follows, i.e., α+β+γ=1.000, 0.100≦α≦0.180, 0.805≦β≦0.900 and 0.000<γ≦0.015, and more preferably 0.100≦α≦0.180, 0.805≦β≦0.895 and 0.005≦γ≦0.015. In this way, the relative permittivity, the Q value and the breakdown voltage can all be increased.
The thickness of the dielectric film 5 is preferably 10 nm to 2000 nm, and more preferably 50 nm to 1000 nm. If the thickness is less than 10 nm, the dielectric breakdown is likely to happen. When the thickness exceeds 2000 nm, the area of the electrode needs to be broadened so as to enlarge the electrostatic capacity of the capacitor, and it may be hard to downsize according to the designs of the electronic component. In the measurement of the thickness of the dielectric film, the electronic component can be milled by a processing device involving FIB (focused ion beam), and then the obtained cross-section is observed by an SIM (scanning ion microscope) to measure the thickness.
Dielectric film 5 is preferably formed by various deposition methods such as vacuum evaporation, sputtering, PLD (Pulsed laser deposition), MO-CVD (Metal-organic chemical vapor deposition), MOD (Metal organic decomposition) or Sol-Gel, CSD (Chemical solution deposition) or the like. At that time, a trace of impurities or subcomponents may be contained in the starting material in use (i.e., the deposition material, various target materials, organometalic material and etc.), but no particular problem will arise as long as they are not impurities which will significantly deteriorate the insulation properties.
Further, a trace of impurities or subcomponents may be contained in the dielectric composition as long as they are not matters which will significantly deteriorate the effect of the present invention (i.e., the relative permittivity, the Q value, or the breakdown voltage). Thus, the amount of the main component as the balance is not particularly restricted. For example, the amount of the main component is 50 mol % or more and 100 mol % or less relative to the whole dielectric composition comprising the main component.
In addition, the dielectric film 5 usually contains the dielectric composition of the present invention as the main component, but it can also be a laminated structure in combination with films made of other dielectric compositions. For example, by making into a laminated structure with the conventional amorphous dielectric films or the crystalline films such as SiNx, SiOx, AlOx, ZrOx, TaOx or the like, the impedance or the temperature dependence of relative permittivity of the dielectric film 5 can be adjusted.
(Upper Electrode 4)
In one example of the present embodiment, film capacitor 10 is provided with upper electrode 4 on the surface of dielectric film 5, wherein upper electrode 4 functions as another electrode in film capacitor 10. The material for forming upper electrode 4 is not particularly restricted as long as it is conductive. Upper electrode 4 can be formed by the same material as that for lower electrode 3. Also, the film thickness of upper electrode 4 is not particularly restricted as long as the function as an electrode can be exerted, and the thickness is preferred to be 10 nm or more. A film thickness of 10 nm or less is not preferable for upper electrode 4 because the conductivity will deteriorate in that case.
Upper electrode 4 is preferably formed by various film-deposition methods such as vacuum evaporation, sputtering, PLD(Pulsed laser deposition), MO-CVD (Metal-organic chemical vapor deposition), MOD (Metal organic decomposition) or Sol-Gel, CSD (Chemical solution deposition) or the like. At that time, a trace of impurities or subcomponents may be contained in the starting material in use (i.e., the deposition material, various target materials, organometalic material and etc.), but no particular problem will arise as long as they are not impurities which will significantly deteriorate the conductivity.
In the embodiment mentioned above, a film capacitor is presented as an example of the electronic component using the dielectric composition according to one embodiment of the present invention. However, the electronic component using the dielectric composition of the present invention is not limited to the film capacitor and also can be any electronic component having a dielectric film such as a diplexer, a band-pass filter, a balun or a coupler.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be further described based on detailed examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.
First of all, a Ti film as the foundation layer with a thickness of 20 nm was deposited by a sputtering method on the surface of a square supporting substrate of 10 mm×10 mm with a thickness of 350 μm, wherein, the supporting substrate had a SiO2 insulating film with a thickness of 6 μm on the surface of Si.
Next, a Pt film as the lower electrode with a thickness of 100 nm was deposited by sputtering method on the deposited Ti film mentioned above.
The formed Ti/Pt film was provided with a thermal treatment at the normal pressure under oxygen atmosphere with a heating rate of 400° C./min and a holding temperature of 700° C. for 0.5 hour.
The PLD method was used in the formation of the dielectric film. The targets necessary in the formation of the dielectric film were prepared as follow.
First, BaCO3, CaCO3, SrCO3, Ta2O5 and Nb2O5 was weighed to get the amounts of Ba, Ca, Sr, Ta, and Nb in Sample No. 1 to Sample No. 36 as shown in Table 1. The weighed starting powders together with absolute ethanol and ZrO2 beads of φ2 mm were put into a wide-mouth poly-pot of 1 L and then subjected to wet mixing for 20 hours. Then, the slurry of the mixed powder was dried at 100° C. for 20 hours. The obtained mixed powder was put into a crucible made of Al2O3 and the pre-calcination was performed in air at 1250° C. for 5 hours to provide the pre-calcined powder.
A molded body was obtained by using a uniaxial pressing machine from the obtained calcined powder. The press condition was set with a pressure of 2.0×108 Pa and a temperature of room temperature.
After that, a sintering process was performed for the obtained molded body under atmospheric air with a heating rate of 200° C./hour and a holding temperature of 1600° C. to 1700° C. for 12 hours.
Next, the obtained sintered body was ground on both surfaces by using a cylindrical grinding machine until the thickness became 4 mm, so the target for PLD necessary in the deposition of the dielectric film was prepared.
Thus prepared target for PLD was used in the PLD method to form a dielectric film with a thickness of 200 nm to 800 nm on the lower electrode. During the film-depositing using the PLD method, the oxygen pressure was controlled to be 1×10−1 Pa and the substrate was heated to 200° C. In addition, in order to expose part of the lower electrode, a metal mask was used to form an area where no dielectric film was deposited.
In the measurement of the thickness of the dielectric film, it was milled by FIB and then the resultant cross-section was observed by SIM to measure the thickness.
After deposition, the composition of the dielectric film was analyzed in all samples by using an XRF (X-ray fluorescence analyzer) , and the composition was confirmed as described in Table 1.
Thereafter, a vapor deposition apparatus was used to deposite an Ag film as the upper electrode on the obtained dielectric film. The upper electrode was formed to have a diameter of 100 μm and a thickness of 100 nm with the use of a metal mask, thus providing Sample No.1 to Sample No.36 with the structure shown in
As for all the obtained film capacitor samples, the relative permittivity, the Q value and the breakdown voltage were respectively measured by the following methods.
(Relative Permittivity and Q Value)
The relative permittivity and the Q value of the film capacitor samples were calculated based on the results from the measurement of the electrostatic capacity and film thickness under a frequency of 2 GHz and an input signal level (measuring voltage) of 0.5 Vrms at a reference temperature of 25° C. using an RF impedance/material analyzer (4991A produced by Agilent Technologies). The relative permittivity of the amorphous SiNx film was about 7. Thus, a relative permittivity of 11 or more which is 1.5 times of that of the amorphous SiNx film was deemed as a good result. In addition, the Q value of the amorphous SiNx film was about 500. Thus, a Q value of more than 500 was deemed as a good result.
(Breakdown Voltage (Vbd))
As for all the film capacitor samples, a digital ultra-high resistance/micro current meters (ADVANTEST R8340) was connected with the exposed area of the lower electrode and also the upper electrode. A voltage was applied in a step of 5V/second to perform the measurement, and the voltage value was read when the resistance value dropped by double digits from the initial resistance value. The value was regarded as the breakdown voltage value (the unit was V) of the sample. The value obtained by dividing the breakdown voltage value (the unit was V) by the thickness of the dielectric film was deemed as the breakdown voltage Vbd (V/μm). In Table 1, the average value of n=5 was shown. The breakdown voltage of the amorphous SiNx film was about 500 to 700 V/μm, thus, a dielectric breakdown voltage of 700 V/μm or more was deemed as a good result.
As for all the obtained film capacitor samples, a pressure cooker test (PCT) under the following condition was performed as the moisture resistance test.
The film capacitor sample was put in a constant temperature bath with a temperature of 121° C., a humidity of 95% RH and a pressure of 2 atm for 100 hours. Then, it was taken out from the constant temperature bath. The relative permittivity, the Q value and the dielectric breakdown voltage were measured under the room temperature. If the relative permittivity, the Q value and the dielectric breakdown voltage were all values within a range of ±5% compared with the value before the test and the moisture resistance was also excellent, the result would be judged as ⊚. If the relative permittivity, the Q value and the dielectric breakdown voltage were all values within a range of ±10% compared with the value before the test and the moisture resistance was good, the result would be judged as ∘.
