Abstract

The invention relates to a method for determining etching time of a sacrificial layer in real time. The method comprises the following steps of: manufacturing the sacrificial layer and a structural layer of an MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) device on a substrate by virtue of a surface sacrificial layer process; depositing a metal layer on the structural layer; and carrying out wet etching on the sacrificial layer, and determining finish time of etching by observing the dropping condition of metal in the metal layer. By virtue of the method, the etching time of the sacrificial layer can be determined in non-contact and non-destructive manners through naked-eye observation, and the process quality and the rate of finished products of the MEMS can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) processing technology, is particularly applied in the field of MEMS surface sacrificial layer technology, and relates to a method for determining the wet etching time of the MEMS surface sacrificial layer technology. The corrosion time is determined in real time through a test structure. Background technique [0002] Since the 1990s, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology has entered a stage of rapid development, not only because of the novel concept, but also because MEMS devices have the characteristics of miniaturization, integration and better performance compared with traditional devices. Now MEMS has been widely used in automobiles, aerospace, information control, medicine, biology and other fields. MEMS technology is mainly divided into three categories: bulk silicon technology, surface sacrificial layer technology, and some special MEMS processing technology. ...
