Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a composite substrate in which occurrence of cracking in grinding of a piezoelectric substrate can be suppressed and occurrence of cracking in handling can also be suppressed. SOLUTION: In the composite substrate 10, a piezoelectric substrate 12 capable of propagating an elastic wave and a supporting substrate 14 having a smaller thermal expansion coefficient than that of the piezoelectric substrate 12 are stuck to each other via an organic adhesive layer 16. On a surface of the piezoelectric substrate 12, a groove 18 is formed over the entire circumference on an inner side than the outer circumferential edge. In the groove 18, a longitudinal cross section is approximately V-shaped, and a bottom part of the groove 18 reaches the supporting substrate 14, but since longitudinal cross-sectional shape of the groove 18 becomes gradually thinner from an opening toward the bottom part, the supporting substrate 14 is merely shaved just a little.

SOLUTION: A method for manufacturing a composite substrate 10 includes: a formation step of forming a structural element portion 31 on a front surface of a first substrate 12; a grinding step of fixing the first substrate 12 and grinding a back surface 13 of the first substrate 12; and a sticking step of sticking a second substrate 14 to the ground back surface 13 with an adhesion layer 16 composed of an adhesive. In such a manner, before forming the adhesion layer 16, the handling properties of which are affected by heating, and before grinding the first substrate, the strength of which is decreased by grinding, a process of forming the structural element portion 31, including a heating step, is performed. Furthermore, a piezoelectric substrate may be used as the first substrate 12, and a supporting substrate which supports the piezoelectric substrate may also be used as the second substrate 14. An electrode 18 for an acoustic wave device may also be formed on the front surface 11 of the first substrate 12 as the structural element portion 31. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
