Bulk Micromachining of Silicon
Bulk silicon etching techniques, used to selectively remove silicon from substrates, have been broadly applied in the fabrication of micromachined sensors, actuators, and structures. Despite the more recent emergence of higher resolution, surfacemicromachining approaches, the majority of currently shipping silicon sensors are made using bulk etching. Particularly in light of newly introduced dr...
متن کاملA geometric etch-stop technology for bulk micromachining
This paper describes a new fabrication method for the simultaneous creation of multi-level single-crystalline silicon structures, each with a different thickness. The method combines deep dry etching and wet anisotropic etching of silicon in order to avoid multiple back-side alignment steps and timed etches. The levels are defined in a single lithographic step from the front side. The fabricati...

متن کاملIntegrated Polysilicon and DRIE Bulk Silicon Micromachining for an Electrostatic Torsional Actuator
This paper presents a fabrication process that integrates polysilicon surface micromachining and deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) bulk silicon micromachining. The process takes advantage of the design flexibility of polysilicon surface micromachining and the deep silicon structures possible with DRIE. As a demonstration, a torsional actuator driven by a combdrive moving in the out-of-plane dire...
