Abstract:
An anodic bond is modeled as a moving nonmaterial line forming the intersection of three material surfaces representing the unbonded conductor, the unbonded insulator, and the bonded interface. The component mass balance equations, Gauss' law, and the linear momentum equations are placed in a finite element formulation, which is used to predict the evolution of the sodium ion concentration, electric potential, and stress during anodic bonding of Pyrex glass and silicon.

Abstract:
This paper presents design, fabrication and calibration results for a novel 2-DOF capacitive force sensor capable of resolving forces up to 490 μN with a resolution of 0.01 μN in x, and up to 900 μN with a resolution of 0.24 μN in y. A simple fabrication process using deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers forms the 3D high aspect ratio structure. A transverse mode comb drive movement is used to greatly improve device sensitivity. Among other advantages of the developed process is a dice-free release of wafer structures, allowing fragile structures to be individually packaged. Notching or footing effects and bowing effects are well-known problems in DRIE on SOI wafers. Techniques to overcome notching and bowing effects using a PlasmaTherm SLR-770 etcher are presented that do not require hardware modifications. The application of the force sensor is for providing real-time force feedback during individual cell manipulation tasks.
