Abstract:
Method for manufacturing a micro-electro-mechanical system, MEMS, integrating a first MEMS device and a second MEMS device. The first MEMS device is a capacitive pressure sensor and the second MEMS device is an inertial sensor. The steps of manufacturing the first and second MEMS devices are, at least partly, shared with each other, resulting in a high degree of integration on a single die, and allowing to implement a manufacturing process with high yield and controlled costs.
Abstract:
Embodiments disclose herein are directed to a microfluidic delivery device that has a predominantly semiconductor structure, such as silicon. In particular, the structure for delivering fluid may be formed from polycrystalline silicon, also called polysilicon, or epitaxial silicon. The microfluidic delivery device that predominantly uses silicon based materials to form the structures that are in contact with the dispensed fluid results in a device that is compatible with a wide set of fluids and applications.
