Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System, MEMS for short) device and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique
[0002] MEMS include integrated micro-devices, such as mechanical, optical and thermal sensing components, formed on a substrate, which is a single or composite layer of solid-state material. MEMS can be fabricated using existing wafer batch processing techniques to form the aforementioned microscopic devices, ranging in size from nanometers to millimeters, on solid-state substrates such as silicon wafers. These MEMS devices are used for sensing control at the microscale and perform various mechanical, optical, or chemical functions, either as a stand-alone single unit or in arrays that synergize within the microscale to produce an overall effect. Such MEMS devices can be applied but not limited to: accelerometers, gyroscopes, pressure sensors, chemical and flow sensors, micro-opt...
