Book Description
The purpose of this thesis was to characterize the relevant mechanical properties of amorphous silicon carbide in order to evaluate its application to microbridge-based RF MEMS switches. For the study, Young's modulus and residual stress were determined by load deflection testing of bulk micromachined thin film diaphragms of SiC deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and radio-frequency magnetron sputtering. The effects of film thickness, a silicon or silicon dioxide substrate material, and metallization with chromium and gold on the values of Young's modulus and residual stress were quantified for 300 and 500 nm-thick PECVD SiC films annealed at 450 @C. For bi-layered, 500 nm-thick sputtered SiC films on silicon, the effects of thermal annealing at 350@C and 450@C on the values of Young's modulus, residual stress, and Poisson's ratio were determined.

Category : Amorphous semiconductors
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Silicon carbide (SiC) has been described as a suitable semiconductor material to use in MEMS and electronic devices for harsh environments. In recent years, many developments in SiC technology as bulk growth, materials processing, electronic devices and sensors have been shown. Moreover, some studies show the synthesis, characterisation and processing of crystalline SiC films. However, few works have investigated the potential of amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiC) thin films for sensors applications. This book presents fundamentals of amorphous silicon carbide thin films and their applications in piezoresistive sensors for high temperature applications.
