    摘要: A three-dimensional thermoelectric energy harvester and a fabrication method thereof. Low-resistivity silicon is etched to form a plurality of grooves and silicon columns between the grooves, and an insulating layer is formed on a surface of the groove, and thermoelectric columns are fabricated by using a thin-film deposition technique, so that the thermoelectric column and a neighboring silicon column form a thermocouple pair; and then, a metal wiring is fabricated by processes such as etching and deposition, followed by thinning of the substrate and bonding of the supporting substrates, thereby completing fabrication of the three-dimensional thermoelectric energy harvester. Fabrication of the thermocouple pair structure by one thin-film deposition process simplifies the fabrication process. The thermocouple pair using silicon ensures a high Seebeck coefficient. The use of vertical thermocouple pairs having a column structure improves the mechanical stability of the thermoelectric energy harvester.

    摘要: A method to create piezoresistive sensing elements and electrostatic actuator elements on trench sidewalls is disclosed. P-type doped region(s) 25 are formed in the upper surface of an n-type substrate 20. A trench 22 is formed in the substrate (e.g. by DRIE process) intersecting with the doped regions and defining a portion 21 of the substrate which is movable in the plane of the substrate relative to the rest of the substrate. Then diffusion of P-type dopant into the trench side-walls creates piezoresistive elements 27 and electrode elements 29 for electrostatic actuation. Owing to the intersection of two doped regions, there are good electrical paths between the electrical elements 27, 29 on the trench side-walls and the previously P-typedoped portions 25 on the wafer surface. The trench 22 intersects with insulating elements 28, so that insulating elements 28 mutually insulate adjacent electrical elements 27, 29. P-n junctions between the electrical elements 27, 29 and the substrate 20 insulate the electrical elements 27, 29 from the substrate.
