    Abstract: A process for manufacturing a MEMS device includes forming a first structural layer of a first thickness on a substrate. First trenches are formed through the first structural layer, and masking regions separated by first openings are formed on the first structural layer. A second structural layer of a second thickness is formed on the first structural layer in direct contact with the first structural layer at the first openings and forms, together with the first structural layer, thick structural regions having a third thickness equal to the sum of the first and the second thicknesses. A plurality of second trenches are formed through the second structural layer, over the masking regions, and third trenches are formed through the first and the second structural layers by removing selective portions of the thick structural regions.

    Abstract: A method including fusion bonding a handle wafer to a first side of a device wafer. The method further includes depositing a hardmask on a second side of the device wafer, wherein the second side is planar. An etch stop layer is deposited over the hardmask and an exposed portion of the second side of the device wafer. A dielectric layer is formed over the etch stop layer. A via is formed within the dielectric layer. The via is filled with conductive material. A eutectic bond layer is formed over the conductive material. Portions of the dielectric layer uncovered by the eutectic bond layer is etched to expose the etch stop layer. The exposed portions of the etch stop layer is etched. A micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) device pattern is etched into the device wafer.

    Abstract: At the first etching step of etching an SOI substrate from a first silicon layer side, a portion of a first structure formed of the first silicon layer is formed as a pre-structure having a larger shape than a final shape. At the mask formation step of forming a final mask on a second silicon layer side of the SOI substrate, a first mask corresponding to the final shape of the first structure is formed in the pre-structure. At the second etching step of etching the SOI substrate from the second silicon layer side, the second silicon layer and the pre-structure are, using the first mask, etched to form the final shape of the first structure.
