The Fabrication of Pt Micro Heater Using Aluminum Oxide as Medium Layer and Its Thermal Characteristics

The electrical and physical charateristics of aluminum oxide and Pt thin films on it, deposited by reactive sputtering and DC magnetron sputtering, respectively, were analysed with increasing annealing temperature(400~80$0^{\circ}C$) by four point probe, SEM and XRD. Under $600^{\circ}C$ of annealing temperature, aluminum oxide had the properties of improving Pt adhesion to SiO$_2$and insulation without chemical reaction to Pt thin films and the resistivity of Pt thin finns was improved. But these properties of aluminum oxide and Pt thin finns on it were degraded over $700^{\circ}C$ of annealing temperature because aluminum oxide was changed into metal aluminum and then reacted to Pt thin films deposited on it. The thermal characteristics of Pt micro heater were analysed with Pt-RTD integrated on the same substrate. In the analysis of properties of Pt micro heater. active area was smaller size, Pt micro heater had better thermal characteristics. Temperature of Pt micro heater fabricated on membrane was up to 34$0^{\circ}C$ with 1.2watts of the heating power due to reduction of the external thermal loss.
