چکیده
The paper presents the design and simulation of double spiral Pt-based microhotplate (MHP) for gas sensing application. A platinum resistor of 52 Ω has been designed and simulated on a 0.3 micron thick SiO2 suspended membrane of size 40 × 40 μm using ANSYS. The SiO2 membrane of size 40 × 40 μm and thickness 0.3 micron has been fabricated successfully by bulk micromachining in <100> orientation P-type silicon using 25% tetra methyl ammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solution. The simulated temperature and transit time response of microhotplate were obtained as 600.5 °C and 0.2 ms respectively at 4.8 mW power consumption. MHP, bulk-micromachining and TMAH

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...
