The purpose of this project is to fabricate a mould etched by KOH for PDC casting and produce the fist PDC using this method. Casting for PDC is a known process, it has been done with PDMS moulds created from Si masters. Si moulds have also been fabricated ...
The project focuses on etching properties of the atomic layer deposition (ALD) of Al2O3. For this purpose, etching processes such as plasma etch with sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), gas etch with xenon difluoride (XeF2), wet etch with MIF developer (726 MIF) as ...
HfC has been very under-investigated due to its rarity and synthesising difficulty. Its potential for MEMS and NEMS applications has been recognized and is the object of an ongoing feasibility study for production since 2022. We continue on this impulse by ...
The field of micro electromechanical systems (MEMS) evolved from the microelectronic industry and the technologies developed to fabricate integrated circuits. As a result, MEMS are commonly fabricated on silicon wafers. The development of MEMS has been dri ...
During this project, the microfabrication of Hafnium Carbide (HfC) was investigated. Multiple tools were considered and tested for their compatibility and effectiveness when working with HfC. The main method of choice for the machining of HfC thin films wa ...
We present the concept and detailed design of a Smart Slit Assembly for next generation spectrometers, and we experimentally demonstrate operation of an individual 221 mu m x 111 mu m smart slit channel employing a MEMS actuated shutter to continuously mod ...
A controlled manipulation of graphene edges and vacancies is desired for molecular separation, sensing and electronics applications. Unfortunately, available etching methods always lead to vacancy nucleation making it challenging to control etching. Herein ...
Dielectric breakdown etching is a well-known method of making nanopores on thin (similar to 50 nm) dielectric membranes. However, voltage driven translocation of biomolecules through such nanopores becomes extremely fast. For improved detection, for instan ...
Inductive magnetic sensors are needed for tokamak operation to provide the low-frequency (LF) measurements leading to the equilibrium reconstruction and to monitor the higher frequency (HF) instabilities; the HF magnetic sensors are often also used as a ba ...
The objective of this semester project is the fabrication of suspended piezoelectrically transduced resonators and to test and compare the quality of the piezoelectric layer using different processes and parameters. A functional fabrication process by lift ...
