Fabrication of micromechanical double-layer fixed-fixed beams on Pyrex glass
Fixed-fixed beams are a kind of common structure in many MEMS devices and most of them reported are fabricated on silicon substrate. In this paper, double-layer fixed-fixed beams are fabricated on glass using SiC as both supporting layer and masking layer. Various annealing conditions are investigated for topographical flatness and stabilization of fixed-fixed beams. 1 μm thick film under 450°C annealing for half an hour is found to be ideal for this propose. Besides, increasing back sputter time is verified to successfully solve the metal peel off phenomenon during 1 hour concentrate HF etchant. This process allows the fabrication of a long well-flatten suspend beam with several hundreds micrometers gap in glass substrate and has been utilized to fabricate hot-wires and groove in our novel jet fluidic gyroscope.
