3C-SiC: New Interest for MEMS Devices

Article Preview

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to review the recent developments conducted by our groups for the achievement of 3C-SiC based heterostructures compatible for MEMS applications. It deals with different aspects, from the influence of the defects generated at the 3C-SiC/Si interface on the mechanical properties to the elaboration of new multilayered structures, required for specific applications like, for example, Atomic Force Microscopy.
