    Abstract: A method of forming a thick polysilicon layer for a MEMS inertial sensor includes forming a first amorphous polysilicon film on a substrate in an elevated temperature environment for a period of time such that a portion of the amorphous polysilicon film undergoes crystallization and grain growth at least near the substrate. The method also includes forming an oxide layer on the first amorphous polysilicon film, annealing the first amorphous polysilicon film in an environment of about 1100° C. or greater to produce a crystalline film, and removing the oxide layer. Lastly, the method includes forming a second amorphous polysilicon film on a surface of the crystalline polysilicon film in an elevated temperature environment for a period of time such that a portion of the second amorphous polysilicon film undergoes crystallization and grain growth at least near the surface of the crystalline polysilicon film.

    Abstract: A production method of a micromachine includes a polysilicon film forming step which overlays grooves, defined in an upper surface of a sacrificial layer on a silicon substrate, with polysilicon layer so as to be flat. The production method includes a first processing step for filling the grooves by adding a lower laid portion of the polysilicon layer onto a sacrificial layer. The lower laid portion has a thickness greater than 0.625 times relative to a width of the grooves. The production method of the micromachine further includes a second processing step for making the polysilicon layer to have a predetermined thickness by adding a upper laid portion of the polysilicon layer on the lower laid portion to form the polysilicon layer, the upper laid portion formed by depositing polysilicon which has the same impurity concentration as the lower laid portion does.
