Piezoresistivity characterization of silicon nanowires through monolithic MEMS

Yusuf Leblebici, Mohammad Nasr Esfahani

This paper presents a monolithic approach for the integration of silicon nanowires (Si NWs) with microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). The process is demonstrated for the case of co-fabrication of Si NWs with a 10-μm-thick MEMS on the same silicon-on-insu ...
