    摘要: A method for forming a micro cavity is disclosed. In the method for forming the cavity, a first layer is formed on a silicon layer and a trench is formed in the silicon layer by selectively etching the silicon layer. A second and a third layers are formed on the trench and on the silicon layer. Etching holes are formed through the third layer by partially etching the third layer. A cavity is formed between the silicon layer and the third layer after the second layer is removed through the etching holes. Therefore, the cavity having a large size can be easily formed and sealed in the silicon layer by utilizing the volume expansion of the silicon or the poly silicon layer. Also, a vacuum micro cavity can be formed according as a low vacuum CVD oxide layer or a nitride layer formed on the etching holes which are partially opened after the thermal oxidation process by controlling the size of the etching holes concerning the other portion of the poly silicon layer.

    摘要: Provided is a method of depositing an amorphous silicon thin film by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) to prevent bubble defect occurring when an amorphous silicon thin film is deposited on a substrate contaminated by air exposure. The deposition method includes cleaning a surface of the contaminated substrate with a reaction gas activated by plasma and depositing an amorphous silicon thin film on the cleaned substrate. Here, a vacuum state is maintained from the substrate cleaning step to the thin film deposition step in order to prevent contamination of the surface of the cleaned substrate by re-exposure to air.

    摘要: An infrared sensor and a method of fabricating the same are provided. The sensor includes a substrate including a reflection layer and a plurality of pad electrodes, an interdigitated sensing electrode connected to the pad electrode and formed to be spaced apart from the reflection layer by a predetermined distance and a sensing layer formed on the sensing electrode and having an opening exposing a portion in which an interdigitated region of the sensing electrode connected to one pad region is separated from the sensing electrode connected to the other pad electrode. Therefore, the sensor has an electrode in a very simple constitution, and a sensing layer divided into rectangular blocks, so that current that non-uniformly flows into the electrode can be removed. Accordingly, the sensor in which current of the sensing layer can be uniformly flown, and noise is lowered can be implemented.

    摘要: Provided is a high-sensitivity MEMS-type z-axis vibration sensor, which may sense z-axis vibration by differentially shifting an electric capacitance between a doped upper silicon layer and an upper electrode from positive to negative or vice versa when center mass of a doped polysilicon layer is moved due to z-axis vibration. Particularly, since a part of the doped upper silicon layer is additionally connected to the center mass of the doped polysilicon layer, and thus an error made by the center mass of the doped polysilicon layer is minimized, it may sensitively respond to weak vibration of low frequency such as seismic waves. Accordingly, since the high-sensitivity MEMS-type z-axis vibration sensor sensitively responds to a small amount of vibration in a low frequency band, it can be applied to a seismograph sensing seismic waves of low frequency which have a very small amount of vibration and a low vibration speed. Moreover, since the high-sensitivity MEMS-type z-axis vibration sensor has a higher vibration sensibility than MEMS-type z-axis vibration sensor of the same size, it can be useful in electronic devices which are gradually decreasing in size.
