Integration of Functional Polymers in Organic Mems for Sensing Applications
Hitherto the MEMS field has evolved with the semiconductor industry where silicon is the predominant material. As the MEMS sector expands and diversifies, research focuses on new optimised materials with respect to the functional requirements (e.g. low cost, flexibility, optical transparency, biocompatibility and large surface) of future electronic devices [1]. To this end, substituting rigid i...
متن کاملSiO2 Uncooled MEMS IR and THz Detectors
Optically-probed uncooled microelectromechanical system infrared (MEMS IR) detectors have many advantages over conventional uncooled (bolometric) detectors. These advantages include fabrication simplicity, robustness, high yield and low cost. We have implemented several designs in order to bridge the performance gap between MEMS-based and conventional uncooled thermal imagers. We used silicon d...
متن کاملIntegration of living cells with silicon nanostructures for MEMS applications
For many years biological and silicon-based structures were considered incompatible because of the difficulties to engineer an effective interface connecting the two systems. Recent developments in surface chemistry, bioengineering and cell biology enabled the creation of extracellular clues to guide the attachment and growth of cells on silicon structures. We have developed a photolithography-...
متن کاملLight Turning Mirrors in SiON Optical Waveguides for Hybrid Integration with CMOS Photo-detectors
A new method is proposed for hybrid integration of SiON optical waveguides and standard CMOS photo-detectors based on anisotropic etching of 45° facets in a Si substrate. After removal of anisotropically etched Si structures in cladding SiO2, the fabricated total-internal-reflection mirrors can direct the output of the waveguides to photo-detectors placed on top of the chip. The metal-free fabr...
متن کاملA CMOS-MEMS Thermopile with an Integrated Temperature Sensing Diode for Mid-IR Thermometry
In this paper, we describe an infrared thermopile sensor comprising of single crystal silicon p+ and n+ elements, with an integrated diode temperature sensor fabricated using a commercial SOI-CMOS process followed by Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE). The chip area is 1.16 mm × 1.06 mm. The integrated diode, being on the same substrate, allows a more localized measurement of the cold junction te...
