Combination of SDB(Si-wafer Direct Bonding) and electrochemical etch-stop in TMAH anisotropic etchant can be used to create a variety of MEMS(Micro Electro Mechanical System). Especially, fabrication of SDB SOI structures using electrochemical etch-stop is accurate method to fabrication of 3D(three-dimensional) microstructures. This paper describes on the fabrication of SDB SOI structures with sealed cavity for MEMS applications and thickness control of active layer on the SDB SOI structure by electrochemical etch-stop. The flatness of fabricated SDB SOI structure is very uniform and can be improved by addition of TMAH to IPA and pyrazine.

This paper described on the fabrication of SOI(Si-on-insulator) structures with buried cavities by SDB technology and eletrochemical etch-stop. The cavity was fabricated the upper handling wafer by Si anisotropic etch technique. SDB process was performed to seal the fabricated cavity under vacuum condition at -760mmHg. In the SDB process, captured air and moisture inside of the cavities were removed by making channels towards outside. After annaling(100$0^{\circ}C$, 60 min.), the SDB SOI structure was thinned by electrochemical etch-stop. Finally, it was fabricated the SDB SOI structure with buried cavities as well as an accurate control and a good flatness.

본 논문은 Si기판 직접접합기술과 전기화학적 식각정지를 이용하여 마이크로 시스템용 매몰 공동을 갖는 SOI 구조물의 일괄제조에 대한 새로운 공정기술에 관한 것이다. 저비용의 전기화학적 식각정지법으로 SOI의 정확한 두께를 제어하였다. 핸들링 기판 위에서 Si 이방성 습식식각으로 공동을 제조하였다. 산화막을 갖는 두 장의 Si기판을 직접접합한 후, 고온 열처리($1000^{\circ}C$, 60분)를 시행하고 전기화학적 식각정지로 매몰 공동을 갖는 SDB SOI 구조를 박막화하였다. 제조된 SDB SOI 구조물 표면의 거칠기는 래핑과 폴리싱에 의한 기계적인 방법보다도 우수했다. 매몰 공동을 갖는 SDB SOI 구조는 새로운 마이크로 센서와 마이크로 엑츄에이터에 대단히 효과적이며 다양한 응용이 가능한 기판으로 사용될 것이다.

Using thermal oxide SiO$_2$ as a dielectrical isolation layer, SOI Hall sensors without pn junction isolation have been fabricated on Si/SiO$_2$/Si structures. The SOI structure was formed by SDB (Si- wafer direct bonding) technology. The Hall voltage and the sensitivity of Si Hall devices implemented on the SDB SOI structure show good linearity with respect to the appled magnetic flux density and supplied current. The product sensitivity of the SDB SOI Hall device is average 600V/V.T. In the trmperature range of 25 to 300$^{\circ}C$, the shifts of TCO(Temperature Coefficient of the Offset Voltage) and TCS(Temperature Coefficient of the Product Sensitivity) are less than ${\pm}$ 6.7x10$\^$-3/ C and ${\pm}$8.2x10$\^$04/$^{\circ}C$, respectively. These results indicate that the SDB SOI structure has potential for the development of Hall sensors with a high-sensitivity and high-temperature operation.

This paper describes on the fabrication of a SOI substrate by SDB technology and electrochemical etch-stop. The surface of the thinned SDB SOI substrate is more uniform than that of grinding or polishing by mechanical method and this process was found to be a very accurate method for SOI thickness control. During electrochemical etch-stop leakage current versus voltage curves were measured for analysis of the open current potential(OCP) point the passivation potential(PP) point and anodic passivation potential. The surface roughness and the controlled thickness selectivity of the fabricated a SDB SOI substrate were evaluated by using AFM and SEM respectively.

This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of a Si Hall sensor fabricated on a SOI (Si-on-insulator) structure. The SOI structure was formed by SDB(Si-wafer direct bonding) technology and the insulator of the SOI structure was used as the dielectrical isolation layer of a Hall sensor. The Hall voltage and sensitivity of the implemented SDB SOI Hall sensors showed good linearity with respect to the applied magnetic flux density and supplied current. The product sensitivity of the SDB SOI Hall sensor was average 600V/A.T and its value has been increased up to 3 times compared to that of bulk Si with buried layer of 10.mu.m. Moreover, this sensor can be used at high-temperature, high-radiation and in corrosive environments.
