1 Mikrosensorer Microfabrication 1 Literature Introductory MEMS Fabrication and Applications Thomas M. Adams and Richard A. Layton Available as ebook on This lecture chapters (2) 3 & 4 MEMS Litography 1
2 Sensor fabrication Silicon manufacturing Litography Doping Etch techniques What is a micro sensor? A sensor with at least one dimension less than a millimeter 2
3 Accelerometers Inclinometer Gyro Compass Air bag sensor 3
4 Micro sensors Mechanical sensors Acceleration, pressure, angle Thermal sensors Temperature, flow, acceleration Magnetic sensors Digital compass, flow, position Optical sensors Absorbance, fluoroscence, position Chemical sensor / Biosensors / Gas sensors 4
5 Why micro sensors? Small Fast Low energy consumption Batch processing No material fatigue or hysteresis in silicon Polymer technology Laminar flow 5
6 Why not? Packaging o Mounting o Bonding o Sealing Signal out Energy supply MEMS Micro Electric Mechanical Systems Bulk Micromachining Surface Micromachining (Thin Film Technology) 6
7 Material Glass, quartz chemical sensors Polymers Single use Metals, Ceramics, Biomaterials Semiconductors - Silicon Czochralskiteknik 7
8 Czochralskiteknik Segregation Coefficient: k 0 =C S /C 1 C s = dopant concentration in the crystal C l = dopant concentration in the melt C 0 = original dopant concentration in the melt dopant concentration vs. Used melt Float zone teknik 8
9 Float zone teknik dopant concentration for multiple float zone passes Czochralski Float zone Starting material Molten polysilicon Most common method 90 % of all monocrystalline silicon ton per year Less pure silicon than with FZ Crucible contaminates with O 2 Starting material Poly silicon rod Less common 10% of world production Very pure silicon Successive purification 9

14 Lift-off Litography processes UV-litography Electron beam litography X-ray litography Ion beam- litography DWL LIGA 14
15 Litography processes Direct Writing Techniques Shadow projection High resolution Wear out the mask Lower resolution Longer lasting mask Resolution : 15
16 Resolution of Proximity litography Fresnel diffraction limits the resolution and minimum feature size to ~5µm Projections litography 16
17 Projections litography The mask is exposed in small portions ==> Better resolution ( 1 µm) than exposure of the entire mask Double sided litography 17
18 Intensity profiles for different litography methods Litography 18
19 Silicon dioxide Fabrication Wet oxidation H 2 +O 2 Water vapor 1000 C C Gasfasdeponering (CVD) Silicon dioxide Usage Mask layer Insulator Sacrificial layer Since the silicon dioxide lattice is much larger, thicker layers may induce stress in the material 19
20 Doping Deposition followed by thermal diffusion Most used method Solid phase deposition Gas phase deposition Thermal diffusion limits the resolution Ionimplantation; High concentrations Etching Techniques 20

30 Anisotropy for various etch solutions KOH EDP TMAH Etchrates in different directions are exponentially dependent on the temperature, with different proportionality coefficients for different directions Trenches etched in (100)-silicon Etchrate for (100) and (110) plane change places when etch solutionchanges from KOH to EDP 30
