Abstract: Material structures and methods for etching hexagonal, single-crystal silicon carbide (SiC) materials are provided, which include selection of on-axis or near on-axis hexagonal single-crystal SiC material as the material to be etched. The methods include etching of SiC bulk substrate material, etching of SiC material layers bonded to a silicon oxide layer, etching of suspended SiC material layers, and etching of a SiC material layer anodically bonded to a glass layer. Plasma-etched hexagonal single-crystal SiC materials of the invention may be used to form structures that include, but are not limited to, microelectromechanical beams, microelectromechanical membranes, microelectromechanical cantilevers, microelectromechanical bridges, and microelectromechanical field effect transistor devices. The material structures and methods of the invention beneficially provide improved etch symmetry, improved etch straightness, improved sidewall straightness, improved sidewall smoothness, and reduced sidewall wander compared to etched four degree off-axis SiC materials.

Abstract: A MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) structure comprises a MEMS wafer. A MEMS wafer includes a cap with cavities bonded to a structural layer through a dielectric layer disposed between the cap and the structural layer. Unique configurations of MEMS devices and methods of providing such are set forth which provide for, in part, creating rounded, scalloped or chamfered MEMS profiles by shaping the etch mask photoresist reflow, by using a multi-step deep reactive ion etch (DRIE) with different etch characteristics, or by etching after DRIE.
