Abstract: A free-standing microstructure may be formed from an engineered substrate including a first silicon layer, a second silicon layer, and an intermediate layer. The second silicon layer may include a monocrystalline silicon film. The intermediate layer may be between the first silicon layer and the second silicon layer. The intermediate layer may include a silicon- or germanium-based material having a different lattice constant than the first silicon layer or the second silicon layer. The intermediate layer of the free-standing microstructure may further include one or more voids wherein at least a portion of the silicon- or germanium-based material is absent between the first silicon layer and the second silicon layer.

Abstract: A method of forming an acoustic transducer comprises providing a substrate and depositing a first structural layer on the substrate. The first structural layer is selectively etched to form at least one of an enclosed trench or an enclosed pillar thereon. A second structural layer is deposited on the first structural layer and includes a depression or a bump corresponding to the enclosed trench or pillar, respectively. At least the second structural layer is heated to a temperature above a glass transition temperature of the second structural layer causing the second structural layer to reflow. A diaphragm layer is deposited on the second structural layer such that the diaphragm layer includes at least one of a downward facing corrugation corresponding to the depression or an upward facing corrugation corresponding to the bump. The diaphragm layer is released, thereby forming a diaphragm suspended over the substrate.

Abstract: A patterning method of a film is disclosed. The method including: providing a film including a first surface; forming n etching barrier layers on the first surface of the film, and n is an integer larger than or equal to 2; and performing n etching processes on the film to form a recessed structure on the first surface using the n etching barrier layers as masks, the recessed structure includes n bottom surfaces respectively having different depths. Two adjacent etching processes of the n etching processes include a previous etching process and a subsequent etching process, and after the previous etching process is completed, a part of the n etching barrier layers is removed to form a mask for the subsequent etching process; a material of the part of the n etching barrier layers which is removed is different from a material of the mask of the subsequent etching process.

Abstract: Semiconductor devices with enclosed cavities and methods for fabricating semiconductor devices with enclosed cavities are provided. In an embodiment, a method for fabricating a semiconductor device with a cavity includes providing a substrate terminating at an uppermost surface and forming a sacrificial structure over the uppermost substrate of the substrate. The method includes forming a device structure overlying a lower portion of the sacrificial structure, overlying the uppermost surface of the substrate, and underlying an upper portion of the sacrificial structure. The method also includes depositing a permeable layer over the sacrificial structure, the device structure and the substrate. Further, the method includes etching the sacrificial structure through the permeable layer to form the cavity, wherein the cavity has an outer surface completely bounded by the substrate, the device structure, and the permeable layer.
