摘要:
Certain MEMS devices include layers patterned to have tapered edges. One method for forming layers having tapered edges includes the use of an etch leading layer. Another method for forming layers having tapered edges includes the deposition of a layer in which the upper portion is etchable at a faster rate than the lower portion. Another method for forming layers having tapered edges includes the use of multiple iterative etches. Another method for forming layers having tapered edges includes the use of a liftoff mask layer having an aperture including a negative angle, such that a layer can be deposited over the liftoff mask layer and the mask layer removed, leaving a structure having tapered edges.

A microelectromechanical systems device having support structures formed of sacrificial material surrounded by a protective material. The microelectromechanical systems device includes a substrate having an electrode formed thereon. Another electrode is separated from the first electrode by a cavity and forms a movable layer, which is supported by support structures formed of a sacrificial material.

A method of making a device includes forming a first hard mask layer over an underlying layer, forming first features over the first hard mask layer, forming a first spacer layer over the first features, etching the first spacer layer to form a first spacer pattern and to expose top of the first features, removing the first features, patterning the first hard mask using the first spacer pattern as a mask to form first hard mask features, removing the first spacer pattern. The method also includes forming second features over the first hard mask features, forming a second spacer layer over the second features, etching the second spacer layer to form a second spacer pattern and to expose top of the second features, removing the second features, etching the first hard mask features using the second spacer pattern as a mask to form second hard mask features, and etching at least part of the underlying layer using the second hard mask features as a mask.

Methods and apparatus for providing light in an interferometric modulator device are provided. In one embodiment, a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) is provided that includes a transparent substrate and a plurality of interferometric modulators. The interferometric modulators include an optical stack coupled to the transparent substrate, a reflective layer over the optical stack, and one or more posts to support the reflective and to provide a path for light from a backlight for lighting the interferometric modulators.

A method for fabricating a magnetic head with a trapezoidal shaped pole piece tip is described. The body of the main pole piece is deposited; then one or more layers for the pole piece tip are deposited. A bed material is deposited over the pole piece tip material. A void is formed in the bed material over the area for the pole piece tip. The void is filled with an ion-milling resistant material such as alumina preferably using atomic layer deposition or atomic layer chemical vapor deposition. The excess ion-milling resistant material and the bed material are removed. The result is an ion-milling mask formed over the area for the pole piece tip. Ion milling is then used to remove the unmasked material in the pole piece tip layer and to form a beveled pole piece tip and preferably a beveled face on the main pole piece.

A test apparatus for testing a to-be-tested network connection device is disclosed. The to-be-tested network connection device has a number of to-be-tested ports. The test apparatus includes a packet generator and a switch fixture. The packet generator is for generating a test packet having a VLAN ID (VID). The switch fixture, having VLAN function, includes a number of fixture ports. The to-be-tested ports are respectively one-to-one electrically coupled to the fixture ports. The switch fixture receives the test packet and transmits the test packet from one of the fixture ports to the corresponding to-be-tested port according to its VID in order to verify the to-be-tested network connection device.

A method for providing a liftoff process using a single layer resist and chemical mechanical polishing and sensor formed therewith are disclosed. Chemical mechanical polishing is combined with liftoff using only a single resist layer to allow the removal of leftover fencing on the side of a lifted resist pattern.
