Process For Wafer Level Treatment To Reduce Stiction And Passivate Micromachined Surfaces And Compounds Used Therefor

US Patent:
6674140, Jan 6, 2004
Filed:
Jan 29, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/771872
Inventors:
John R. Martin - Foxborough MA
Assignee:
Analog Devices, Inc. - Norwood MA
International Classification:
H01L 2984
US Classification:
257415, 257642
Abstract:
This invention discloses a process for forming durable anti-stiction surfaces on micromachined structures while they are still in wafer form (i. e. , before they are separated into discrete devices for assembly into packages). This process involves the vapor deposition of a material to create a low stiction surface. It also discloses chemicals which are effective in imparting an anti-stiction property to the chip. These include polyphenylsiloxanes, silanol terminated phenylsiloxanes and similar materials.

US Patent:
5072190, Dec 10, 1991
Filed:
Aug 14, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/567411
Inventors:
John R. Martin - Foxboro MA
Assignee:
The Foxboro Company - Foxboro MA
International Classification:
G01R 2722, G01R 2726
US Classification:
324663
Abstract:
A monitoring system for testing the integrity of seal structures, filled with an electrically non-conductive fluid and for validating measurements of a measurement device. The monitoring system includes electrodes disposed in the fluid for measuring an electrical property of the fluid. The system indicates when the measured electrical property changes, which indicates contamination of the fluid.

Mems Device With Non-Standard Profile

US Patent:
7521363, Apr 21, 2009
Filed:
Aug 9, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/914575
Inventors:
John R. Martin - Foxborough MA, US
Lawrence E. Felton - Hopkinton MA, US
Assignee:
Analog Devices, Inc. - Norwood MA
International Classification:
H01L 29/84
US Classification:
438691, 438 51, 438113, 438459, 438703, 257E21499, 257E31117, 257E31127
Abstract:
A method of producing a MEMS device forms structure on a non-standard device wafer. To that end, the method provides the noted non-standard device wafer, which has a wafer outer diameter and a non-standard thickness. As known by those in the art, a standard device wafer has a standard thickness when its outer diameter equals the wafer outer diameter. In illustrative embodiments, however, the non-standard thickness is smaller than the standard thickness. The method then forms structure on the non-standard device wafer.

International Classification:
G02B006/26, G02B006/42
US Classification:
385 18, 385 47
Abstract:
A fiber-attached optical device with in-plane micromachined mirrors includes a cover having at least one reflector formed on one side and a substrate having a plurality of micromachined optical mirrors formed substantially on a single plane on a side facing toward the mirrored side of the cover. The micromachined optical mirrors are controllable to reflect optical signals between a plurality of optical fiber segments via the at least one reflector. The plurality of optical fiber segments can be attached to either the cover or the substrate so as to form an integrated package including the substrate, the cover, and the plurality of optical fiber segments. The mirrors can be controlled to variably attenuate the optical signals.
