Characterization and Modeling of Wafer and Die Level Uniformity in Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE)

open access: yesMRS Proceedings, 2003
ABSTRACTWafer and die level uniformity effects in Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE) are quantitatively modeled and characterized. A two-level etching model has been developed to predict non-uniformities in high-speed rotating microstructures. The separation of wafer level and die level effects is achieved by sequentially etching wafers with uniformly ...

Fabrication of High-Density Multimodal Neural Probes Based on Heterogeneously Integrated CMOS. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
A chiplet‐based methodology democratizes active neural probe development on standard bulk CMOS services. This yields the first probe combining high‐density electrophysiology (416 electrodes) with calcium imaging (832 photodiodes) and complete on‐chip signal processing across 13 shanks.

Low-temperature smoothing method of scalloped DRIE trench by post-dry etching process based on SF6 plasma

open access: yesMicro and Nano Systems Letters, 2020
Deep reactive-ion etching (DRIE) is commonly used for high aspect ratio silicon micromachining. However, scalloping, which is the result of the alternating Bosch process of DRIE, can cause many problems in the subsequent process and degrade device ...

Optimization of deep reactive ion etching for microscale silicon hole arrays with high aspect ratio

open access: yesMicro and Nano Systems Letters, 2022
During deep reactive ion etching (DRIE), microscale etch masks with small opening such as trenches or holes suffer from limited aspect ratio because diffusion of reactive ions and free radicals become progressively difficult as the number of DRIE cycle ...

A two-level prediction model for deep reactive ion etch (DRIE) [PDF]

open access: yes18th IEEE International Conference on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems, 2005. MEMS 2005., 2005
The authors contribute a quantitative and systematic model to capture etch non-uniformity in deep reactive ion etch of MEMS devices. Non-uniformity depends on uneven distributions of ion and neutral species at the wafer level, and local consumption at the die level.

A Method for Improving Heat Dissipation and Avoiding Charging Effects for Cavity Silicon-on-Glass Structures

open access: yesActuators, 2023
Anode bonding is a widely used method for fabricating devices with suspended structures, and this approach is often combined with deep reactive-ion etching (DRIE) for releasing the device; however, the DRIE process with a glass substrate can potentially ...
