  • Abstract
    SCREAM process for releasing micromechanical MEMS structures using plasma polymerized fluorocarbon thin film for trench sidewall passivation is reported. The developed process is designed as a one mask process, and all etchings and depositions are fabricated in the same etching system (standard capacitive coupled RIE), as one-step-one-run process.
