[0001] TECHNICAL FIELD AND PRIOR ART The invention relates to the field of photoacoustic detection devices, and in particular that of integrated gas sensors that use a photoacoustic effect to measure the concentration of certain gaseous elements. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION . The principle of a measurement of a gas by photoacoustic effect is based on the excitation of an acoustic wave in the gas by a powerful light source such as a pulse laser or modulated amplitude or wavelength. The wavelength of the mid-infrared radiation (MIR) emitted by the laser is chosen to interact specifically with the molecules of the gas to be detected. The emission of the light source being variable in time, the energy absorbed by the gas molecules is restored in the form of a transient heating that generates a pressure wave, itself measured by an acoustic detector. Detection is improved by confining the gas in a cavity and modulating the laser at an acoustic resonance frequency of the cavity. The amplitude of the acoustic wave obtained is directly related to the concentration of the desired gaseous compound in the gas present in the excited cavity. The effectiveness of the detection relies in large part on the efficient coupling of the light flux from the laser with the gas contained in the resonant cavity because the measured signal is proportional to the energy absorbed and then dissipated by the gas. WO 03/083455 A1 discloses a photoacoustic measuring device for detecting the presence of a gas and having a particular photoacoustic cell structure called "Differential Helmholtz Resonator" (DHR), or differential acoustic resonator type Helmholtz. Such a resonator comprises two identical chambers interconnected by two capillaries.
[0002] Acoustic resonance is produced by exciting only one of the two chambers. At resonance, the pressures in the two chambers oscillate in phase opposition. The pressures in the chambers are measured by microphones placed in both chambers. With such a resonator, the calculation of the difference between the signals from each chamber, which corresponds to the useful signal, makes it possible to increase the amplitude of the measured signal and to eliminate a part of the surrounding noise, and therefore to have final good signal-to-noise ratio. Another type of differential photoacoustic resonator is described in document WO 2008/074442 A1. However, such devices have the drawbacks of being limited to non-miniaturized laboratory devices, of having limited transmission wavelengths, and be sensitive to temperature variations and vibrations, and to have strong constraints of positioning and alignment of their elements for their realization. A miniaturization of such a device on a millimetric scale is proposed in US Pat. No. 7,304,732 B1. This miniaturization makes it possible to have a stronger pressure signal produced by the sensor because this signal increases when the size of the resonator is reduced. . DHR resonators are particularly well suited to miniaturization and integration on silicon because they are relatively insensitive to the location of the thermal energy deposit and because, the pressure being almost constant in each chamber, it is possible to multiply the number of microphones per chamber to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. EP 2 515 096 A1 discloses a photoacoustic gas detection device comprising a miniaturized photoacoustic resonator integrated on silicon. The structure of this detector is obtained by the implementation of techniques of the field of microelectronics in several substrates bonded together. The manufacturing process requires placing the MIR waveguide, which allows the laser optical signal to be injected into one of the two chambers, into the lower part of the central substrate which is thinned to a thickness determined by the height of the chambers. . Miniaturization and silicon integration of this type of detector, however, pose a problem. Indeed, the MIR radiation produced by the laser is transmitted to the excited chamber by a waveguide section comparable to the wavelength of the radiation. At the entrance to the excited chamber, the beam undergoes a diffraction due in particular to the small thickness of the silicon, which leads to a significant divergence of the beam. This divergence of the light beam, combined with the transparency of the silicon (in which the resonator is manufactured) leads to poor light confinement and therefore to poor light-gas coupling. This phenomenon is exacerbated by the fact that the luminous flux penetrates near the bottom of the chamber. In addition, this poor confinement can cause partial illumination of the second chamber (crosstalk phenomenon), which reduces the amplitude of the useful signal obtained. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a photoacoustic detection device of the DHR and integrated type, and in which the confinement of the light beam intended to be injected into one of the chambers of the device is improved. For this purpose, the present invention proposes a photoacoustic detection device comprising: at least one substrate comprising cavities forming a Helmholtz-type differential resonator (or DHR); acoustic detectors coupled to two of said cavities forming chambers of the resonator; a light source capable of emitting a light beam at at least one given wavelength; an optical waveguide comprising a first end optically coupled to the light source and a second end optically coupled to a first of the two chambers; wherein the second end has, at an interface with the first chamber, a width of value greater than that of the width of the first end and greater than that of said at least one given wavelength, and / or in which the photoacoustic detection device comprises at least one diffraction grating disposed in the second end of the waveguide and able to diffract a first portion of the light beam towards a lower reflective layer disposed under the second end and a second portion of the beam to an upper reflective layer disposed at an upper wall of the first chamber. In this photoacoustic detection device, the confinement of the light beam is improved horizontally via the widening of the second end of the waveguide which is optically coupled to the first chamber which is intended to receive the light beam, because this enlargement makes it possible to reduce or even cancel the diffraction of the light beam in the direction parallel to this width. The confinement of the light beam is further enhanced vertically by the diffraction grating which makes it possible to diffract the light beam in a specific direction towards the reflective layers which make it possible to confine the light beam in the first chamber. The term "width" is used here and throughout the rest of the document to designate, in connection with the waveguide, the dimension which lies in a plane of propagation of the light beam in the waveguide and which is perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to a direction of propagation of the light beam in the waveguide. Preferably, the optical waveguide may be such that it operates in the fundamental mode for which the diffraction grating is dimensioned and diffracted at a precise angle. Such monomode operation of the optical waveguide is advantageous because it allows better control of the direction of the light beam. If multiple modes are excited, these modes may diffract in multiple directions. However, in the case of a multimode waveguide, a small difference in index between the core and the sheath of the waveguide can make it possible to limit the variation of the effective index of the guide. Advantageously, the photoacoustic detection device comprises both an optical waveguide whose second end has, at an interface with the first chamber, a width greater than that of the first end and at said wavelength. given, and the diffraction grating disposed in the second end of the waveguide and coupled to the lower and upper reflective layers. This configuration makes it possible to improve the horizontal and vertical confinement of the light beam. The value of the width of the second end is preferably greater than or equal to several times that of said given wavelength. A ratio between the width of the second end at the interface with the first chamber and the width of the first end may be greater than or equal to 3. The second end may form a portion of the waveguide whose width increases from a first value equal to that of the width of the first end to a second value equal to that of the width of the second end at the interface with the first chamber.
[0003] In this case, the width of the second end may increase over a portion, called the first portion, of the second end whose length may be greater than or equal to about ten times the width of the second end at the interface with the second end. first room. The term "length" here designates, in connection with the waveguide, the dimension which lies in the plane of propagation of the light beam in the waveguide and which is parallel to the direction of propagation of the light beam in the beam. waveguide (and therefore perpendicular to the previously defined width). The terms "thickness" and "height" refer to the dimension that is perpendicular to the width and length. Such gradual growth in the width of the second end of the waveguide makes it possible to preserve the monomode nature of the transmission of the light beam produced by the waveguide. The diffraction grating may be disposed in a portion, called second portion, of the second end whose width may be substantially constant and equal to that at the interface with the first chamber.
[0004] The diffraction grating may be disposed at an interface between a core layer of the waveguide and a lower cladding layer of the waveguide, the lower cladding layer being able to be arranged between the core layer and the lower reflective layer.
[0005] The diffraction grating may be able to diffract the light beam such that the first or second portion of the light beam, after reflection on the lower reflective layer and / or the upper reflective layer, reaches a bottom wall of the first chamber which is opposite to that in contact with the second end of the waveguide. Thus, the diffraction grating may be dimensioned, particularly with regard to the pitch of the grating, such that the path of the light beam is maximized in the first chamber for the first or second portion of the light beam. The acoustic detectors may be arranged in a first substrate and be coupled to the chambers of the resonator formed in a second substrate secured to the first substrate, volumes of the chambers being able to communicate with each other by capillaries formed in a third substrate secured to the second substrate. Alternatively, the acoustic detectors may be arranged in a first substrate and be coupled to the resonator chambers formed in a second substrate secured to the first substrate, volumes of the chambers communicating with each other by capillaries formed in the second substrate, the second substrate having a thickness less than 300 μm. Thus, by forming the capillaries and the chambers in the same substrate, it is possible to reduce the thickness of the chambers, and possibly that of the capillaries, to a value of less than 300 μm.
[0006] The device may further comprise trenches filled with at least one optically reflective material and arranged around the first chamber. Such trenches help to improve the horizontal confinement (i.e., in the direction parallel to the waveguide width) of the light beam. The two chambers may have different dimensions relative to each other. Such asymmetry of the chambers can make it possible to optimize the phase opposition of the acoustic signals measured in the two chambers. The acoustic detectors may include piezoresistive microphones of the beam type.
[0007] The invention also relates to a gas detection device, comprising at least one photoacoustic detection device as described above and further comprising gas inlet and outlet channels communicating with the chambers of the resonator, for example by the intermediate of the capillaries, and wherein the wavelength to be emitted by the light source corresponds to a wavelength of absorption of a gas to be detected. Such a device thus forms a low-cost gas sensor that can be used, for example, in the field of outdoor gas detection (pollution detection, measurement of greenhouse gases, etc.) or indoors (quality of the gas). indoor air, air conditioning, detection of substances in indoor space, etc.).
[0008] The invention also relates to a method for producing a photoacoustic detection device, comprising at least the steps of: - producing, in at least one substrate, an optical waveguide comprising a first end and a second end, - Realization of a light source capable of emitting a light beam at at least one given wavelength and such that the light source is optically coupled to the first end of the waveguide, - embodiment, in said at least one substrate. of cavities forming a Helmholtz-type differential acoustic resonator, two of said cavities forming resonator chambers such that a first of the two chambers is optically coupled with the second end of the waveguide, - coupling of acoustic detectors with the chambers of the resonator, wherein the second end has, at an interface with the first chamber, a value width greater than greater than that of the width of the first end and greater than that of said at least one given wavelength, and / or in which the method comprises the production of at least one diffraction grating in the second end of the waveguide. wave capable of diffracting a first portion of the light beam to a lower reflective layer disposed under the second end and a second portion of the light beam to an upper reflective layer disposed at an upper wall of the first chamber.

[0009] The different parts shown in the figures are not necessarily in a uniform scale, to make the figures more readable. The different possibilities (variants and embodiments) must be understood as not being exclusive of each other and can be combined with one another. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PARTICULAR EMBODIMENTS Referring firstly to FIG. 1 which schematically represents a photoacoustic detection device 100 according to a particular embodiment. This photoacoustic detection device 100 corresponds to a gas detection device. The device 100 comprises a powerful light source 102, corresponding here to a laser. This laser may correspond to a QCL type laser (quantum cascade laser) emitting in the MIR domain, for example at wavelengths of between approximately 3 μm and 10 μm. Although not shown, the device 100 also comprises a power supply of the light source 102 and modulation means of the light beam emitted at an acoustic resonance frequency of the cavity in which the beam is intended to be sent. The emitted light beam is then transmitted in an optical waveguide 104, advantageously monomode and for example formed of a stack Si / Ge / Si, or SiN / Si / SiN, or more generally a stack of a first material of optical index n1, of a second material of optical index n2> n1, and of a third material of optical index n3 <n2 (with n3 possibly equal to n1), these three materials being transparent to the length waveform emitted by the light source 102. The optical waveguide 104 has a first end 105 optically coupled to the light source 102. The coupling between the light source 102 and the waveguide 104 can be made directly, by example by evanescent waves, or via the use of a coupler (not shown in Figure 1) for example typing type (forming an extruded elongated trapezium).
[0010] The device 100 also comprises elements corresponding to cavities, or recesses, formed in one or more substrates integral with each other, and forming a differential acoustic resonator Helmholtz type (DHR). These elements are: a first chamber 106 in which the gas to be detected is intended to be excited by the light beam emitted by the source 102, and whose input face intended to receive the light beam is optically coupled to a second end 107 of the waveguide 104; a second chamber 108; two capillaries 110 and 112 making it possible to communicate the volumes of the chambers 106 and 108 between them. The device 100 also comprises an inlet channel 114 making it possible to bring the gas into the chambers 106 and 108 via the capillary 110, and an outlet channel 116 making it possible to evacuate the gas from the chambers 106 and 108 via the capillary 112 In FIG. 1, the inlet 114 and outlet 116 channels are connected to the capillaries 110 and 112 substantially at the middle of these capillaries 110, 112. Acoustic detectors (not visible in FIG. 1) such as microphones miniaturized piezoresistive, for example of the membrane or beam type, are also coupled to the chambers 106, 108 in order to carry out the pressure measurements in the chambers 106, 108. Each of the chambers 106, 108 may be coupled to one or more microphones, for example up to eight microphones per room. Finally, the device 100 also comprises electronic circuits for processing the signals delivered by the acoustic detectors which are not shown in FIG. 1. The operating principle of the device 100 is similar to that described in the document EP 2 515 096 A1 and is not described in detail here. In order to confine the light beam in the first chamber 106 and thus improve the light-gas coupling occurring in the first chamber 106, the device 100 includes an element for controlling the horizontal divergence (along the y-axis shown in FIG. ) of the light beam at the interface between the first chamber 106 and the second end 107 of the waveguide 104, and an element for controlling the vertical divergence (along the axis z shown in Figure 1) of the light beam at this interface. Thus, at the interface with the first chamber 106, the second end 107 of the waveguide 104 is made such that its width (dimension along the y axis), that is to say, its dimension lying in the plane of propagation of the light beam and which is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the light beam, increases in order to achieve the horizontal confinement of the light beam because this increase in the width of the second end 107 of the waveguide 104 causes a diffraction reduction in the direction of this widening. This widening of the second end 107 of the waveguide 104 is shown schematically in FIG. 2 which represents a view from above of the waveguide 104 at its second end 107 which is at the interface with the first chamber 106. This widening of the second end 107 of the waveguide 104 is progressive and preferably such that it retains the monomode character of the transmission of the light beam into the first chamber 106. Such an enlargement can be described as adiabatic when the effective index varies linearly and that it preserves the monomode character while minimizing the length of this second end 107. The second end 107 of the waveguide 104 may for example have an initial width, equal to that of the the remainder of the waveguide 104 and especially equal to that at the first end 105, equal to about 3 μm, or between about 3 μm and 8 μm, e a final width (width at the interface with the first chamber 106) equal to about 30 μm, or between about 30 μm and 40 μm or between about 30 μm and 50 μm, i.e. here a ratio between the final width and the initial width of between about 10 and 13.33. The ratio between the final width and the initial width is, for example, between approximately 3 and 20, and for example approximately 10. In order to preserve the monomode character of the transmission of the light beam into the chamber 106, this enlargement is example made over a length of about 300 μm, or between about 50 μm and 500 μm. The value of the initial width may be of the order of that of the wavelength of the light beam emitted to achieve monomode guidance of this light beam, and the value of the final width is greater than that of this length of light. wave to obtain a horizontal confinement of the light beam. Controlling the vertical divergence of the light beam is achieved by means of a diffraction grating 118 made at the second end 107 of the waveguide 104, and more particularly at a portion of this second end 107 whose width is substantially constant and equal to that at the interface with the first chamber 106. This control of the vertical divergence of the light beam is also achieved through a lower reflective layer 120 disposed under the second end 107 and extending to at the inlet face of the first chamber 106, and through an upper reflective layer 122 disposed at the upper wall of the chamber 106. The diffraction grating 118 comprises a series of parallel grooves, or slots, made in the core layer of the waveguide 104 (which is for example based on germanium), the grooves being filled with a material of have the index of refraction is lower than that of the material of the core layer, for example by SiO 2, silicon nitride, etc. The diffraction grating 118 is for example made over a length of about 1 mm to obtain a sufficient decoupling efficiency of the order of 60%. FIG. 3 represents the second end 107 of the waveguide 104 formed by a first layer 124 of silicon, on which is disposed a core layer 126, for example made of germanium, itself covered by a second layer 128 of silicon, the layers 124 and 128 forming the lower and upper cladding layers of the waveguide 104. Alternatively, the core layer 126 could be silicon, and the layers 124 and 128 made of SiN. The diffraction grating 118 is preferably made at the lower part of the core layer 126 which is in contact with the lower cladding layer 124 in order to avoid, when carrying out the diffraction grating 118, a step of epitaxial resumption of the core material on a non-planar silicon layer. However, it is possible for the diffraction grating 118 to be made at the upper part of the core layer 126 which is in contact with the upper cladding layer 128. In the configuration shown in FIG. acoustic detectors (not shown in this figure) are coupled to the first chamber 106, at the bottom wall of the chamber 106, and to the second chamber 108. A first portion 130 of the light beams diffracted by the diffraction grating 118 are downwards, that is to say towards the lower reflective layer 120, and a second portion 132 of the light rays diffracted by the diffraction grating 118 are oriented upwards, that is to say toward the layer upper reflector 122. The pitch of the diffraction grating 118 is calculated so that the diffraction angle of the rays 130 and 132 (this angle being the same for the rays 130 and 132) is such that the radii 130 facing downwards or the upwardly directed spokes 132 pass through the entire length of the first chamber 106, which is for example about 2.6 mm, in order to maximize the path length of the light radiation in the first chamber 106 In the example shown in FIG. 3, this diffraction angle is such that the rays 130, which are first reflected on the lower reflective layer 120, pass through the entire length of the first chamber 106, this crossing of the first chamber 106 being made with a reflection on the upper reflective layer 122 in order to maximize the path length in the first chamber 106. Alternatively, the diffraction grating 118 could be such that the diffraction angle formed by the diffracted beams by the network 118 allows the spokes 132 to traverse the entire length of the first chamber 106.
[0011] By widening the second end 107 of the waveguide 104 and the presence of the diffraction grating 118 and the reflector layers 120 and 122, light ray confinement in the first chamber 106 is obtained, thus improving the coupling. light-gas in the first chamber 106 and also preventing the second chamber 108 is partially illuminated because of the divergence of the beam. An example of optical sizing of the elements of the device 100 is described below. This example is calculated for a first chamber 106 for receiving the light rays which is rectangular in shape and which has a width and a height each equal to about 300 μm, and a length equal to about 2.6 mm. Considering the example previously described in connection with FIG. 3 in which the path of the rays 130 (that is to say the rays diffracted towards the lower reflective layer 120 and then towards the upper reflective layer 122) is maximized, the value of the desired diffraction angle with which the light rays are diffracted by the diffraction grating 118 is first calculated such that these rays pass through the entire length of the chamber 106. The value of the diffraction angle a (angle measured with respect to the axis of the waveguide 104) is calculated from the following transcendental equation: sin (a) a) = -n2sin a tan (2H-ho -d tan (a) 1 (1) nd 1 i with n2 corresponding to the refractive index in the chamber 106, that is to say here equal to about 1, n1 corresponding to the refractive index of the material of the first layer 124 in which the rays are diffracted, and equal to about 3.4 in the case of a prem Ie silicon layer 124, the height of the chamber 106, here equal to 300 iim, ho the thickness of the first layer 124, here equal to about 10 iim, d the distance between the center of the diffraction grating 118 and the input face of the chamber 106, that is to say half the length of the diffraction grating 18, here equal to about 0.5 mm. The diffraction angle formed by the other rays (the rays 132 in the example of FIG. 3) will be similar to that for the rays whose path is maximized in the first chamber 106. However, it is advisable to have an angle of diffraction sufficiently low that these other rays still move towards the entrance face of the chamber 106. The pitch A of the diffraction grating 118 is then calculated according to the following equation: m (2) A = X neff - nSi cosy with m corresponding to the diffraction order and which is equal to 1 for calculating the pitch of the grating, corresponding to the wavelength emitted by the light source 102, ns, corresponding to the refractive index of the silicon (more generally the material of the lower layer 124), a corresponding to the diffraction angle, neff corresponding to the effective index, that is to say the index seen by the mode (at the speed of propagation of the mode in the guide). The light source 102 emits laser radiation in the MIR domain at a wavelength λ equal to 4. For a diffraction angle equal to 3.7 ° in the silicon and equal to 12.5 ° in the air, a step of 39 μm is obtained for a = 4 °, ns, = 3.4 and neff = 3.5. When this diffraction grating 118 is produced over a length of about 1 mm on a waveguide 104 whose width changes from 3 μm to 30 μm over a length of about 300, an absorption of about 11.1 mW per W incident (power of the beam entering the chamber) in the CO2 contained in the ambient air is obtained, while an absorption of 4.6 mW per incident W is obtained without these elements allowing the confinement of the light beam. A factor of about 2.5 is obtained on the proportion of signal transmitted in the first chamber 106 through the confinement means used. In addition, the widening of the second end 107 of the waveguide 104 has another effect of reducing the crosstalk because the second chamber 108 is not or only slightly illuminated by the light beam sent into the first chamber 106. The degree of filling of the grooves in the diffraction grating 118 is involved in the decoupling performed. It is determined by simulation and is for example equal to about 50%.
[0012] According to an alternative embodiment, the device 100 may comprise chambers 106 and 108 that do not have similar dimensions. Indeed, since the device 100 is a miniaturized device produced via the implementation of microelectronics techniques and MEMS / NEMS systems, it may appear a phase opposition between the pressure signals measured in the two chambers 106 and 108 which is imperfect when the dimensions of the chambers 106 and 108 are identical. The subtraction of these two signals which is performed to obtain the desired measurement is then not optimal. In order to improve this phase opposition, it is possible that the widths and / or the lengths of the chambers 106 and 108 are different from one another. An optimization by simulation (for example by solving the equation of the pressure field in the device 100, with chambers 106 and 108 of different sizes), for example via a calculation by the finite element method, leads to the optimum ratio of the dimensions. chambers 106 and 108. The curve shown in FIG. 4 corresponds to the amplitude of the signal obtained (in Pa, and corresponding to the difference of the pressures measured by the acoustic detectors in the two chambers 106 and 108) as a function of the width. second chamber 108 (iim), for a first chamber 106 of width equal to about 300 iim. It can be seen from this figure that the maximum amplitude of the signal is not obtained for a second chamber 108 having a width similar to that of the first chamber 106, that is to say equal to about 300 μm, but for a second width greater than 300 μm in this particular case. In other cases, the maximum amplitude of the signal can be obtained for a second chamber 108 having a width smaller than that of the first chamber 106. The device 100 is for example formed by the assembly of three substrates: a first lower substrate comprising the acoustic detectors intended to be coupled to the chambers 106 and 108, and in which are formed the inlet and outlet channels 114 and 116, - a second middle substrate in which the light source 102 is formed; wave 104, the diffraction grating 118 and the chambers 106 and 108; - A third upper substrate forming the cover of the chambers 106 and 108 and in which are also formed the capillaries 110 and 112. Alternatively, the device 100 can be made with only two substrates. In this case, the capillaries 114 and 116 are made in the second substrate in which the chambers 106 and 108 are made. In this case, the capillaries 114 and 116 may have a height similar to that of the chambers 106 and 108. By using only two substrates instead of three, it is possible to reduce the thickness of the chambers 106 and 108 to a minimum. less than about 300 μm because such a configuration with two substrates avoids the use of a medium substrate whose thickness must correspond to the thickness of the chambers and which is difficult to handle when this thickness is less than about 300. iim. By etching the capillaries and chambers in the same substrate with a depth which is less than the total thickness of the substrate (because in this case the upper walls of the chambers and capillaries are formed by an unetched portion of the second substrate and not by a third substrate carried on the second middle substrate), it is possible to have chambers 106 and 108 whose height is low while maintaining a greater total thickness for the substrate allowing a manipulation of the substrate without risk of breakage . A device 100 made with only two substrates allows the production of chambers 106 and 108, the thickness of which is for example between approximately 300 μm and 100 μm, but remains compatible with the production of chambers 106 and 108 with a thickness greater than approximately 300 μm. iim. This reduction in the thickness of the chambers 106 and 108 makes it possible to obtain an output signal of greater amplitude. The curve 10 represented in FIG. 5 corresponds to the amplitude of the signal obtained (in Pa, and corresponding to the difference of the pressures measured by the acoustic detectors in the two chambers 106 and 108) as a function of the distance between the capillaries 110 and 112 for a device 100 whose chambers 106 and 108 have a thickness equal to about 300 μm, and the curve 12 corresponds to the amplitude of the signal obtained for a device 100 whose chambers 106 and 108 have a thickness equal to about 200 μm. . FIG. 5 illustrates well that the amplitude of the signal represented by curve 12 is greater than that obtained for the signal represented by curve 10. In addition, the amplitude of the output signal is impacted by the distance between the capillaries. 110 and 112 because of the energy losses in the boundary layers and the particular shape of the gas flow. An exemplary method for producing the photoacoustic detection device 100 is described in connection with FIGS. 6A to 61 which represent schematic cross-sectional views of the elements of the device 100. In this embodiment, the device 100 is produced via an assembly of three substrates. FIGS. 6A to 6F show the steps relating to the production of the second middle substrate which comprises the waveguide 104, the diffraction grating 118 and the chambers 106 and 108, as well as other elements such as the electrical contacts of the acoustic detectors . FIGS. 6G to 61 show the subsequent steps of the method during which the second middle substrate is secured to the first lower substrate and to the third upper substrate forming in particular the cover of the chambers 106 and 108.
[0013] As represented in FIG. 6A, the second middle substrate corresponds to a bulk substrate 134 ("bulk") of semiconductor, here based on silicon. The material located at an upper face of the substrate 134 corresponds to the material which will form the upper cladding layer 128 of the waveguide 104. A first deposition or epitaxial growth of a d-based layer 136 is then performed. a material with a refractive index greater than that of the substrate material 134 and transparent at the wavelength or wavelengths intended to be transmitted by the waveguide 104, here a material that is transparent in the infrared and for lengths wavelengths between about 3 μm and 10 μm. Part of this layer 136, for example formed by epitaxy, is intended to form the core layer 126 of the waveguide 104. The thickness and the material of the layer 136 are chosen so that the waveguide 104 can perform monomode guidance of the light beam. The thickness of the layer 136 is for example between about 1 and 10 μm, and is for example based on germanium or SiGe depending on the desired material to form the core layer 126 of the waveguide 104. of a SiGe-based layer 136, the SiGe germanium composition, i.e., the proportion of germanium in SiGe, may be constant or vary along the thickness of the layer 136 to achieve a core layer comprising an index gradient according to a profile (in the direction of the thickness of the layer 136) that can be triangular or trapezoidal. For example, for a waveguide 104 intended to transmit a wavelength of 4.5 μm, the germanium composition within the layer 136 may form, along the thickness of this layer, a triangular profile. to a thickness of about 3 .mu.m with a germanium composition ranging from 0% (at the upper and lower faces of the layer 136) to 40% in the middle of the layer 136, these variations being for example linear along the As a variant, the layer 136 may be based on SiGe and comprise a constant germanium concentration along the thickness of this layer and for example equal to 40%, the layer 136 having in this case a thickness for example equal to 2.7 μm. The diffraction grating 118 is then produced at the level of the upper face of the layer 136. For this purpose, a lithography and an etching of the RIE (reactive ion etching) or DRIE (deep reactive ion etching) type are implemented at the same time. the intended location of the diffraction grating 118, i.e. at the portion of the second end 107 of the waveguide 104 which is intended to be near the intended location of the first chamber 106 which is intended to receive the light beam. Photolithography and etching are carried out in such a way that, in part of the thickness of the layer 136 (the thickness of the layer 136 being for example between about 1 μm and 10 μm), the grooves of the diffraction grating whose dimensions and spacing correspond to the calculated values in order to obtain the desired diffraction angle, as previously described.
[0014] After this etching, a layer 138 of material whose refractive index is less than that of the material of the layer 136, such as SiO 2, SiN or Si 3 N 4, is formed, for example by deposition, on the layer 136 and in the patterns etched through the upper face of the layer 136 to form the diffraction grating 118 (Fig. 6B).
[0015] The layer 138 is then planarized, for example via a mechano-chemical planarization (CMP) with a stop on the upper face of the layer 136, so that the low-index material is only retained in the patterns of the diffraction grating 118. The core of the waveguide 104 is then made by lithography and etching of the layer 136 so that at least a portion of the remaining portions of the layer 136 form the core layer 126 of the waveguide 104. This etching is not visible in Figures 6A-6I. This etching is carried out through part or all of the thickness of the layer 136 according to the desired structure to form the core of the waveguide 104. When the waveguide 104 comprises a core layer 126 of SiGe to triangular index index, the layer 136 may be etched such that the remaining portion forming the waveguide 104 has a width equal to about 3.3 iim, or between about 3.3 iim and 8 iim, this which allows him to perform a monomode guidance of a light beam of wavelength equal to 4.5 iim. As previously described, the second end 107 of the waveguide 104 is made with a progressive widening to allow a transmission of the fundamental mode of the light beam for which the diffraction grating 118 is optimized while reducing the diffraction of the beam in the direction enlargement, and thus improve the horizontal confinement of the light beam. The remaining portion or portions of the layer 136 are then covered by the deposition or the epitaxial growth of a layer 140 intended to form the lower cladding layer 124 of the waveguide 104, which is therefore based on a material of lower refractive index than that of the core layer, and for example based on silicon in the case of a SiGe core layer. This layer 140 is then planarized for example via a CMP so that the upper face of the layer 104 forms a flat surface (FIG. 6C). As a variant, the realization of the diffraction grating 118 could be simplified by implementing a single lithography step, a single etching step and a single CMP step. Materials other than silicon and germanium may be used to produce the waveguide 104, these materials must however allow transmission of the wavelength of the light beam and be compatible with the techniques used to produce the device. It is however possible to make the waveguide 104 with a silicon core layer and disposed between two SiN cladding layers.
[0016] A dielectric layer 142 is then deposited on the layer 140, for example based on SiO 2 and having a thickness equal to about 1 μm, or based on SiN or Al 2 O 3. This dielectric layer 142 is etched at locations intended to form electrical contact reversals of the acoustic detectors of the device 100 (FIG. 6D). An electrically conductive layer, for example based on metal, is then deposited on the dielectric layer 142. This electrically conductive layer is for example based on AISi (comprising about 1% silicon). The electrically conductive layer is then etched so that remaining portions 144 of this layer, filling in particular the locations previously etched in the dielectric layer 142, form the electrical contacts of the acoustic detectors. At least one other remaining portion 146 of this electrically conductive layer may also be retained in order to form the lower reflector layer 120, especially when the material of the dielectric layer 142 does not allow this light reflection function diffracted by the grating network. diffraction 118 is filled by the layer 142 (Figure 6E). In the case of a Si02 layer 142 and a germanium or SiGe waveguide core 104 surrounded by silicon cladding layers, this light reflection function is fulfilled by the layer 142 because a total light reflection occurs at the Si / SiO 2 interface because of the low angle of incidence of the light beam diffracted by the diffraction grating 118.
[0017] Another dielectric layer 147, for example based on a material similar to that of the dielectric layer 142, and / or of a thickness similar to that of the dielectric layer 142, is then deposited by covering the remaining portions 144, 146. A sealing layer is then produced in order subsequently to enable the second middle substrate to be joined with the first substrate comprising the acoustic detectors. This sealing layer may correspond either to a metal layer, for example a gold-based layer with a thickness of about 800 nm, or an aluminum-based layer with a thickness of about 400 nm, placed on a metal layer. germanium layer of thickness equal to about 200 nm, for performing eutectic sealing with the semiconductor (eg silicon) of the first substrate. This sealing layer may also correspond to a polymer layer, for example with a thickness of approximately 1 μm. As shown in FIG. 6F, this sealing layer is etched so as to keep sealing portions 148 only in certain places. In addition, some of the remaining sealing portions are electrically connected to the remaining conductive portions 144 to form the electrical contacts which will be electrically connected to the acoustic detectors of the device 100. As shown in FIG. 6G, the second middle substrate 150 obtained by the implementation of the previously described steps is returned and secured to the first substrate, referenced 152, which comprises the acoustic detectors and other electrical and / or electronic elements not visible in Figures 6A-6l. Due to the overturning of the second middle substrate 150, the diffraction grating 118 is located in the lower part of the core layer 126 of the waveguide 104, as previously described with reference to FIG. 3. The acoustic detectors 154, which are beam type piezoresistive microphones, are arranged near the portion of the second substrate 150 in which the chambers 106 and 108 are intended to be made, and are electrically connected to the electrical contacts 144 previously made. In addition, the detectors 154 are disposed in an etched portion 156 of the first substrate 152 which will subsequently make it possible to vent the detectors 154 so that they are subjected to atmospheric pressure. In addition, the detectors 154 are connected to stress nanojauges 158 allowing the transformation of the pressures measured by the acoustic detectors 154 into electrical signals. After sealing the second middle substrate 150 to the first substrate 152, the second middle substrate 150 can be thinned to the desired thickness corresponding to the desired height of the chambers 106 and 108, for example equal to 300 μm (Figure 6H). This thinning is performed by reducing the thickness of the solid layer 134. Lithography and etching steps (for example of the DRIE type) are then performed through the second middle substrate 150 to form the chambers 106 and 108.
[0018] The light of the laser light source 102 can be injected directly into the waveguide 104, the light source 102 being in this case coupled end-to-end with the waveguide 104 via a so-called "hybrid" coupling. It is also possible to have a "heterogeneous" coupling in which the laser light source 102, for example of the QCL type and made of III-V material, is attached to the silicon substrate. An additional structure, formed for example by lithography and etching, ensures in this case the coupling between the waveguide 104 and the light source 102. The epitaxial layers of the QCL laser can be transferred to the silicon by direct bonding, as described by for example in the document "Electrically driven hybrid Si / III-V Fabry-Perot lasers based on adiabatic mode transform" by B. Ban Bakir et al., Opt. Express 2011, vol. 19, No. 11, May 23, 2011. As shown in Figure 61, the third upper substrate 160 is secured to the second thinned substrate 150 medium. The capillaries 110 and 112 are made in the third upper substrate 160 prior to the joining of this third substrate 160 with the second middle substrate 150. The fastening is implemented via a eutectic sealing layer, for example formed of a stack of a layer of tungsten with a thickness of 50 nm, a layer of tungsten nitride with a thickness of 50 nm and a gold layer with a thickness of 800 nm, deposited and then structured in the form of The third substrate 160 forms, in particular, the upper walls of the chambers 106 and 108. Thus, one of the remaining portions of the sealing layer may be used to form the upper reflective layer 122 in the first chamber 106. The eutectic seal is made between the gold layer of the sealing bead 162 and the silicon (corresponding to the material of the thinned layer 134) of the second middle substrate 150 As a variant, prior to the joining of the third substrate 160 to the second substrate 150, the capillaries 110, 112 may be made after deposition and structuring of the eutectic sealing layer. In this case, the upper reflective layer 122 is subsequently deposited for example through a stencil to locate this layer at the portion of the third upper substrate 160 intended to form the upper wall of the first chamber 106. The inlet channels 114 and outlet 116 are made through the first lower substrate 152. Other openings 164 are made through the first lower substrate 152, in particular so that the acoustic detectors 154 are at atmospheric pressure and form access points for engraving portions of material. temporary dielectrics present in the substrates, in contact in particular with the acoustic detectors 154 and with the metal portions 144, 146. In the case of an embodiment of the device 100 with only two substrates, the capillaries 110 and 112 are made in the same layer that the chambers 106 and 108, that is to say in the second substrate 150. In c e case, the upper reflective layer is made via a stencil metallization step at the bottom wall of the cavity intended to form the first chamber 106, prior to the joining of the two substrates.
[0019] In the device 100 previously described, the diffraction grating 118 is dimensioned in particular as a function of the wavelength of the light beam intended to be diffracted, the wavelength of the light beam being adapted according to the nature of the gas to be detected. . The device 100 can be adapted to perform a detection of several types of gas by producing in the device 100 several parallel waveguides which open on one or two input faces (on each side) of the first chamber 106, each waveguides being coupled to a light source emitting at a different wavelength, for example between 4 μm and 5 μm, which is intended to be diffracted by the diffraction grating produced on each of the waveguides. An optical multiplexer can also be used so that the chamber 106 can receive different wavelengths, as described in EP 2 515 096 A1. In addition, it is also possible for the two chambers 106 and 108 to be coupled to sources light emitting for example at different wavelengths from each other, which excites the gas present in one or the other of the chambers 106 and 108 according to the gas to be detected.
[0020] In the device 100 previously described, the horizontal confinement of the light beam is achieved by widening the second end 107 of the waveguide 104. This horizontal confinement can be improved by making trenches filled with a reflective material, by example a metal such as gold, aluminum, around the first chamber 106. These trenches are sufficiently distant, for example a few tens of microns, the first chamber 106 to not add thermal background noise , related to the absorption of infrared radiation by the materials surrounding the excited chamber. Such trenches can be made in the second substrate 150, for example during the etching of the chambers 106 and 108. In the example of FIG. 1 previously described, the inlet 114 and outlet 116 channels are connected to the capillaries 110. and 112 substantially at the middle of these capillaries 110, 112. Alternatively, since the device 100 is a miniaturized device produced by the implementation of steps of microelectronics, these input channels 114 and output 116 can be connected to the capillaries 110 and 112 at a different level than their medium, and this without disturbing the symmetry of the gas flow in the device 100. To increase the intensity of the signal measured by the acoustic sensors of the device 100, it It is possible to place the capillaries 110, 112 at the ends of the chambers 106, 108. Such a configuration makes it possible to increase by approximately 5% the amplitude of the signal measured by the acoustic detectors. The different implementation options described in document EP 2 515 096 A1, such as for example the use of a Peltier effect cooler, an amplifier integrated in the photoacoustic detection device, or the various examples of materials described, can be used. to apply to the photoacoustic detection device of the invention.
