    摘要: A method of fabricating a silicon-based microstructure is disclosed, which involves depositing electrically conductive amorphous silicon doped with first and second dopants to produce a structure having a residual mechanical stress of less than +/=100 Mpa. The dopants can either be deposited in successive layers to produce a laminated structure with a residual mechanical stress of less than +/=100Mpa or simultaneously to produce a laminated structure having a mechanical stress of less than +/=100Mpa.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for making a wafer-level package for a plurality of MEMS devices. The method involves preparing a MEMS wafer and a lid wafer, each having respective bonding structures. The lid and MEMS wafers are then bonded together through the bonding structures. The wafers are substantially free of alkali metals and/or chlorine. IN a preferred embodiment, each wafer has a seed layer, a structural underlayer and an anti-oxidation layer. A solder layer, normally formed on the lid wafer, bonds the two wafers together.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for making a device having one or more deposited layers and subject to a post deposition high temperature anneal. Opposing films having similar mechanical properties are deposited on the front and back faces of a wafer, which is subsequently subjected a high temperature anneal. The opposing films tend to cancel out stress-induced warping of the wafer during the subsequent anneal.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for aligning structures on first and second opposite sides of a wafer. First one or more transparent islands are formed on the first side of the wafer at an alignment location. The transparent islands have an exposed front side and a rear side embedded in the wafer. At least one alignment mark is formed on the front side of the transparent island. An anisotropic etch is performed through the second side of said the to form an opening substantially reaching the back side of the transparent island. A precise alignment is then carried out on the alignment mark through the opening and the transparent island. In this way a very precise alignment can be carried out on the back side of the wafer for manufacturing MEMS structures.

    摘要: An apparatus for carrying out reactive physical vapor deposition on a substrate to form a nitride layer, comprises a vacuum chamber, a substrate support in the vacuum chamber, a target over the substrate support made of a refractory or noble metal, for example titanium and tantalum, a gas inlet for supplying nitrogen gas to the vacuum chamber, and a non-evaporable getter pump for serving as the primary pumping means in the vacuum chamber during the reactive physical vapor deposition of a nitride of the metal onto the substrate. The non-evaporable getter pump consists of a material insensitive to nitrogen, such as an alloy of zirconium and iron.
