    摘要: A method of fabricating a micro-vertical structure is provided. The method includes bonding a second crystalline silicon (Si) substrate onto a first crystalline Si substrate by interposing an insulating layer pattern and a cavity, etching the second crystalline Si substrate using a deep reactive ion etch (DRIE) process along a [111] crystal plane vertical to the second crystalline Si substrate, and etching an etched vertical surface of the second crystalline Si substrate using a crystalline wet etching process to improve the surface roughness and flatness of the etched vertical surface. As a result, no morphological defects occur on the etched vertical surface. Also, footings do not occur at an etch end-point due to the insulating layer pattern. In addition, the micro-vertical structure does not float in the air but is fixed to the first crystalline Si substrate, thereby facilitating subsequent processes.

    摘要: A conventional capacitive accelerometer has a limitation in reducing a distance between a sensing electrode and a reference electrode, and requires a complex process and a separate method of correcting a clearance difference caused by a process error. However, the capacitive accelerometer of the present invention has high sensitivity, can be simply manufactured by maintaining a very narrow distance between a reference electrode and a sensing electrode, and can make it unnecessary to individually correct each manufactured accelerometer by removing or drastically reducing a functional difference due to a process error.
