    摘要: Semiconductor devices and fabrication methods are provided. In a semiconductor device, a semiconductor substrate includes a first electrode layer having a top surface coplanar with a top surface of the semiconductor substrate. A sacrificial layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate and the first electrode layer. A first mask layer made of a conductive material is formed on the sacrificial layer. The first mask layer and the sacrificial layer are etched until a surface of the first electrode layer is exposed to form openings through the first mask layer and the sacrificial layer. A cleaning process is performed to remove etch byproducts adhered to a surface of the first mask layer and adhered to sidewalls and bottom surfaces of the openings. Conductive plugs are formed in the openings after the cleaning process.

    摘要: The present invention generally relates to an RF MEMS DVC and a method for manufacture thereof. To ensure that undesired grain growth does not occur and contribute to an uneven RF electrode, a multilayer stack comprising an AlCu layer and a layer containing titanium may be used. The titanium diffuses into the AlCu layer at higher temperatures such that the grain growth of the AlCu will be inhibited and the switching element can be fabricated with a consistent structure, which leads to a consistent, predictable capacitance during operation.

    摘要: In a method for producing a semiconductor device having a through electrode structure, a masking material is formed so as to bridge over a through hole formed in a second semiconductor substrate, and a hole is formed in the masking material at a position corresponding to the through hole. A contact hole is formed in an insulating film via this hole. In such a method, even if there is a large level difference from the surface of the second semiconductor substrate to the bottom of the through hole, only the masking material bridged over the through hole is exposed by photolithography. Therefore, photolithography for a large level difference is not necessary. As a result, the hole can be formed in the masking material successfully, and the contact hole can be formed successively by an anisotropic dry etching via this hole, even in the case where etching for a large level difference is performed.

    摘要: An anisotropic conductor and a method of fabrication thereof. The anisotropic conductor includes an insulating matrix and a plurality of nanoparticles disposed therein. A first portion of the plurality of nanoparticles provides a conductor when subjected to a voltage and/or current pulse. A second portion of the plurality of the nanoparticles does not form a conductor when the voltage and or current pulse is applied to the first portion. The anisotropic conductor forms a conductive path between conductors of electronic devices, components, and systems, including microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices, components, and systems.

    摘要: A method of forming a through-glass via hole involves providing a glass substrate having first and second substantially planar parallel surfaces; masking the first and second substantially planar parallel surfaces to form a via-patterned portion thereon; and etching the via-patterned portion on the first and second substantially planar parallel surfaces to form a first channel in the first substantially planar parallel surface and a second channel in the second substantially planar parallel surface. The first channel and second channel are substantially orthogonal or non-orthogonal to one another. The first channel and the second channel intersect to form a quadrilateral through-glass via hole having via openings at the first and second substantially planar parallel surfaces. A low cost, low complexity and high reliability method for producing a glass substrate having a plurality of through-glass via holes such that the glass substrate can be used, for example, as an interposer.
