Proceedings ArticleDOI
Curl and Effective Height of Micromachined Bi-Layer Cantilevers Under Differing Residual Stresses
R.W. Johnstone,M. Parameswaran +1 more
TL;DR: This paper develops, from minimum energy considerations, a completely general equation for predicting both (1) the uniform strain of a cantilever and (2) the radius of curvature of a Cantilever, applied to an arbitrary number of layers.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Exposure and Development of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate) Using 254nm Light Source and IPA/Water
TL;DR: The feasibility of PMMA exposure using deep UV at 254 nm is demonstrated, and developer speeds of up several microns a minute are possible, and the selectivity of exposed over unexposed PMMA can reach nearly 650.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-uniform residual stress assembly for free-space optical systems
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple free-space optical system is presented for out-of-plane fabrication of a surface-micromachined optical device, where light is coupled into the system perpendicularly to the substrate surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure and development of thick polydimethylglutarimide films for MEMS applications using 254-nm irradiation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the exposure and development of polydimethylglutarimide (PMGI)-based resistors with more than 6 m in thickness using two main classes of developer for PMGI, TMAH, and tetraethylammonium-hydroxide TEAH-based developers.
