Parameter Studies of Ceramic MEMS Microhotplates Fabricated by Laser Micromilling Technology

Abstract:

This paper presents a modeling of technology aspects for fabrication ceramic microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) microhotplate and surface mounting device (SMD) packaging for (MOX) gas sensors applications. Innovative claims include: demonstration of flexible opportunities for new fabrication process flows based on laser micromilling tech; modeling of power consumption MEMS microhotplate depending on the thickness and topology; demonstration of necessity changing thick film technology of metallization to vacuum sputtering by reducing of power consumption. The results show possibility to fast fabrication of different topologies for ceramic MEMS microhotplate in form-factor of SOT-23 type SMD package.
