[mems-talk] EEG Devices and Sensors

Hello everyone,

I'm a new member here, I did not know however, my question had been
asked before.

Is there any or many devices or sensors that able to handle EEG for
full head reading? not only in some part of our head, but for the
whole head.

Thank you

[mems-talk] UV 26-3.0

Dear all,

I'm currently using photoresists uv26. I need to reflow the resist. But I tried several temperature still
it couldn't hit the profile I want. At lower temperature like 165C the reflow is not enough; when I try to go
higher like 180C the resist burnt. 
Any comments or advice about this photoresists is very much welcomed.

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards,
Jocelyn

Re: [mems-talk] Resist thickness for nitride etch

Thanks Lou, I got that. 
The thing is that my Si wafer has a SiN layer on top of which 2 um resist acts a mask. I want to do a plasma(Oxford
endpoint RIE) etch exposed portions of SiN (and not Si beneath it). The exposed SiN layer is 400 nm thick and
consists of a series of 25 um squares. Overall, if the whole exposed SiN is etched, I should get a step depth
of 2.4 um on the profilometer. I etch for 130% of the required etch time to etch all 400 nm of nitride.
However, when I measure the step depth on profilometer, it always shows me that the depth is less than 2.4
um. I can't fathom the reason behind it. Could it be because my features are very small?

Thanks
Ahmad

Hi Ahmad,     If the layer under the nitride or resist that you are measuring is also etched (silicon, oxide,
etc.)  you will measure a step that is the etch through the material plus the etch into the substrate.  So, if
you etch just resist and then measure the thickness before and after, you will need to then strip the resist
and measure the amount of etch into the substrate and subtract it.

> Ahmad,    That depends a lot on your process.  I would recommend putting some resist down with your pattern on a
test wafer and etching for some amount of time.  Pick something less than your total etch, but not too short. 
Measure the thickness of the resist before and after and then you can calculate whether the thickness will
be sufficient.  Be careful to account for any etching into the substrate if you are using a profilometer to
measure the thickness.  If your recipe has a lot of oxygen, the rate against the resist will likely be very high.

Re: [mems-talk] electroform station

Hi Hong,
The wafer cathode holder is critical in electroforming. The contacts must
be sealed off from the plating solution to avoid being welded to your
wafer. Also, a current thief must be used to obtain uniformity. I can help
you with plating tools.

Regards,
Dave

[mems-talk] Resist thickness for nitride etch

Hi

I am trying to do an anisotropic etch of 400 nm nitride layer in a RIE machine. A portion of the nitride is
protected by a resist layer on top of it. Can you tell approximate how much thickness of resist would I need
so that the resist doesn't get stripped off during the nitride etch? 

Thanks,
Ahmad
