  1. Small Scale Effect

  2. From macro to nano…

  3. Scaling laws of small • Laws of physics make the small world look different.

  4. Some small scale phenomenaSurface tension • Surface tension force for 100 µm opening = 5.7 µN • Typical force for 100 µm device is 10 nN • Surface tension over 500x greater!

  5. Some small scale phenomenaLaminar flow • Reynolds Number (Re)scales as length. • Typical Reynolds Number for 100 µm device is Re ~ 0.1 • Onset of turbulence is at Re ~ 2000

  6. Some small scale phenomenaSurface area/volume • Surface area to volume is large at small scales. • Mass flow saturates quickly in small volumes. • Equilibrium can be reached very quickly. • Mass flows through small devices quickly. • Hard to maintain concentration gradient. • Micro-scale systems must • utilize physical barriers (cell • walls) to maintain • concentration gradients. • Surface contamination is a • serious issue at small scales.

  7. Some small scale phenomenaLoss of continuity • At sizes below ~50 µm, granularity of nature becomes relevant. • Many bulk-scale physical laws no longer accurate. • Typical grain size is ~10 µm. • Affects physical, thermal and • electrical properties. • Mean free path of N2 at atmosphere • is 60 nm. Affects dynamics in air. Example: Paschen effect.

  8. Micromachining Materials • Substrates: • • Silicon • • GaAs • • Other elemental or compound semiconductors • • Metals (bulk and foils) • • Glasses • • Quartz • • Sapphire • • Ceramics • • Plastics, polymers and other organics

  9. Silicon Crystallography

  10. Cubic Lattices • Simplest arrangements of atoms in three dimension in which the unit cell is a cubic volume • Simple Cubic (sc) structure has an atom located at each corner of the unit cell • Body Centered Cubic (bcc) has an additional atom at the center of the cube • Face Centered Cubic (fcc) unit cell has atoms at the eight corners and on the six faces.

  11. Cubic Lattices • How is the arrangement of atoms in Silicon? • Silicon has fcc + (1/4x, 1/4y, 1/4z) fcc structure

  12. Si crystal structure

  13. Planes and directions • Lattice vector R= r*a+ s*b+ t*c, r, s & t are integers • We can define a plane in a crystal lattice with three integer, called Miller indices

  14. Planes and directions [0 1 0 ] [1 0 0 ] [1 1 0 ]

  15. Czochralski Method (CZ)

  16. Si-Wafer fabriaction

  17. Floating Zone Method (FZ)

  18. 懸浮帶區法(FZ法)

  19. CZ法和FZ法比較

  20. CZ法和FZ法比較

  21. 晶圓的備製

  22. 晶塊修整

  23. Miller indices indicated by ground edges called “flats”. “n”-type and “p”-type refer to “doping”. N means “negative” (phosphorous) and P means “positive” (boron).
