3 Gyroscopes EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 3
4 Classic Spinning Gyroscope A gyroscope measures rotation rate, which then gives orientation very important, of course, for navigation Principle i of operation based on conservation of momentum Example: classic spinning gyroscope Rotor will preserve its angular momentum (i.e., will maintain its axis of spin) despite rotation of its gimbled chassis EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 4
5 Vibratory Gyroscopes Generate momentum by vibrating structures Again, conservation of momentum leads to mechanisms for measuring rotation ti rate and orientation ti Example: vibrating mass in a rotating frame y n into vibration along the y-axis Mass at rest y Get an x component x x of motion C(t) Rotate 30 o C(t 2 ) > C(t 1 ) C(t 1 ) C(t 2 ) y-displaced mass Capacitance between mass and frame = constant EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C.

17 Deep Reactive-Ion Etching EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 17
18 Deep Reactive-Ion Etching (DRIE) The Bosch process: Inductively-coupled plasma Etch Rate: μm/min Two main cycles in the etch: Etch cycle (5-15 s): SF 6 (SF x+ ) etches Si Deposition cycle: (5-15 s): C 4 F 8 deposits fluorocarbon protective polymer (CF 2- ) n Etch mask selectivity: SiO 2 ~ 200:1 Photoresist ~ 100:1 Issue: finite sidewall roughness scalloping < 50 nm Sidewall angle: 90 o ±2 o EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 18
19 DRIE Issues: Etch Rate Variance Etch rate is diffusion-limited and drops for narrow trenches Adjust mask layout to eliminate large disparities Adjust process parameters (slow down the etch rate to that governed by the slowest feature) Etch rate decreases with trench width EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 19
20 DRIE Issues: Footing Etch depth precision Etch stop: buried layer of SiO 2 Due to 200:1 selectivity, the (vertical) etch practically just stops when it reaches SiO 2 Problem: Lateral undercut at Si/SiO 2 interface footing Caused by charge accumulation at the insulator Poor charge relaxation and lack of neutralization of e - s at insulator Ion flux into substrate bt t bild builds up (+) potential Charging-induced potential perturbs the E-field Distorts the ion trajectory Result: strong and localized damage to the structure at Si-SiO 2 interface footing EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 20
21 Recipe-Based Suppression of Footing Use higher process pressure to reduce ion charging [Nozawa] High operating pressure concentration of (-) ions increases and can neutralize (+) surface charge Issue: must introduce as a separate recipe when the etch reaches the Si-insulator interface, so must be able to very accurately predict the time needed for etching Adjust etch recipe to reduce overetching [Schmidt] Change C 4F 8 flow rate, pressure, etc., to enhance passivation and reduce overetching Issue: Difficult to simultaneously control footing in a narrow trench and prevent grass in wide trenches Use lower frequency plasma to avoid surface charging [Morioka] Low frequency more ions with low directionality and kinetic energy neutralizes (-) potential barrier at trench entrance Allows e - s to reach the trench base and neutralize (+) charge maintain charge balance inside the trench EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 21
22 Metal Interlayer to Prevent Footing (a) Photolithography 1 (f) Silicon Thinning (sacrificial) (b) Preparatory trenches (g) Photolithography 2 (c) Metal interlayer deposition (h) DRIE Pre-defined metal interlayer grounded to substrate supplies e s to neutralize (+) charge and prevent charge accumulation at the Si-insulator interface (d) Lift-off (remove PR) (i) Remove metal interlayer (e) Anodic Bonding (i) Metallize EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 22
23 Footing Prevention (cont.) Below: DRIE footing over an oxide stop layer Right: efficacy of the metal interlayer footing prevention approach [Kim, Stanford] No metal interlayer Footing No footing With metal interlayer [Kim, Seoul Nat. Univ.] EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 23
24 DRIE Examples High aspectratio gear Tunable Capacitor [Yao, Rockwell] Microgripper [Keller, MEMS Precision Instruments] EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 24
25 Energy Conserving Transducers EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 25
26 Basic Physics of Electrostatic Actuation Goal: Determine gap spacing g as a function of input variables First, need to determine the energy of the system Two ways to change the energy: Change the charge q Change the separation g ΔW(q,g) = VΔq + F e Δg dw = Vdq + F e dg Note: We assume that the plates are supported elastically, so they don t collapse EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 26
27 Here, the stored energy is the work done in increasing the gap after charging capacitor at zero gap Stored Energy EE C245: Introduction to MEMS Design Lecture 21 C. Nguyen 11/13/08 27
