    摘要: Methods for integrally forming high Q tunable capacitors and high Q inductors on a substrate are described. A method for integrally forming a capacitor and a microcoil on a substrate may involve depositing and patterning a dielectric layer on the substrate, depositing and patterning a sacrificial layer on the substrate, depositing and patterning conductive material on the semiconductor substrate, depositing and patterning a polymer layer on the semiconductor substrate, removing an exposed portion of the conductive material exposed by the patterned polymer layer to release a portion of the conductive pattern from the semiconductor substrate to form out-of-plane windings of the microcoil, depositing second conductive material on exposed portions of the conductive material, and removing the sacrificial layer. The patterned conductive material may include a windings portion of the microcoil, an overlapping electrode portion of the capacitor and a support portion for the electrode of the capacitor.

    摘要: Xerographic micro-assembler systems and methods are disclosed. The systems and methods involve manipulating charge-encoded micro-objects. The charge encoding identifies each micro-object and specifies its orientation for sorting. The micro-objects are sorted in a sorting unit so that they have defined positions and orientations. The sorting unit has the capability of electrostatically and magnetically manipulating the micro-objects based on their select charge encoding. The sorted micro-objects are provided to an image transfer unit. The image transfer unit is adapted to receive the sorted micro-objects, maintain them in their sorted order and orientation, and deliver them to a substrate. Maintaining the sorted order as the micro-objects are delivered to the substrate may be accomplished through the use of an electrostatic image, as is done in xerography. The substrate with the micro-objects is further processed to interconnect the micro-objects—through electrical wiring, for example—to form the final micro-assembly.

    摘要: A curved spring structure includes a base section extending parallel to the substrate surface, a curved cantilever section bent away from the substrate surface, and an elongated section extending from the base section along the substrate surface under the cantilevered section. The spring structure includes a spring finger formed from a self-bending material film (e.g., stress-engineered metal, bimorph/bimetallic) that is patterned and released. A cladding layer is then electroplated and/or electroless plated onto the spring finger for strength. The elongated section is formed from plating material deposited simultaneously with cladding layers. To promote the formation of the elongated section, a cementation layer is provided under the spring finger to facilitate electroplating, or the substrate surface is pre-treated to facilitate electroless plating.

    摘要: A self-aligned, thin-film, top-gate transistor and method of manufacturing same are disclosed. A first print-patterned mask is formed over a metal layer by digital lithography, for example by printing with a phase change material using a droplet ejector. The metal layer is then etched using the first print-patterned mask to form source and drain electrodes. A semiconductive layer and an insulative layer are formed thereover. A layer of photosensitive material is then deposited and exposed through the substrate, with the source and drain electrodes acting as masks for the exposure. Following development of the photosensitive material, a gate metal layer is deposited. A second print-patterned mask is then formed over the device, again by digital lithography. Etching and removal of the photosensitive material leaves the self-aligned top-gate electrode.

    摘要: A stress-engineered microspring is formed generally in the plane of a substrate. A nanowire (or equivalently, a nanotube) is formed at the tip thereof, also in the plane of the substrate. Once formed, the length of the nanowire may be defined, for example photolithographically. A sacrificial layer underlying the microspring may then be removed, allowing the engineered stresses in the microspring to cause the structure to bend out of plane, elevating the nanowire off the substrate and out of plane. Use of the nanowire as a contact is thereby provided. The nanowire may be clamped at the tip of the microspring for added robustness. The nanowire may be coated during the formation process to provide additional functionality of the final device.

    摘要: A process for fabricating fine features such as small gate electrodes on a transistor. The process involves the jet-printing of a mask and the plating of a metal to fabricate sub-pixel and standard pixel size features in one layer. Printing creates a small sub-pixel size gap mask for plating a fine feature. A second printed mask may be used to protect the newly formed gate and etch standard pixel size lines connecting the small gates.
