In MEMS the oxide layer can be used as a stopper layer for silicon etching, making it possible to form complex 3-dimensional structures. TAIKO Grinding (TAIKO is a a trademark of Disco Corp.) TAIKO grinding is a wafer grinding process developed by Disco Corp. that grinds only the inner portion, leaving the outer edge of the wafer intact.
Grinding Process: Mechanism of Grinding: In the grinding process, a layer of abrasive is responsible for removing the material from the work piece. As machining starts, the abrasives of grinding wheel and work piece comes into contact and due to the rubbing force the initial layer from the grinding wheel is worn out and a fresh layer of the ...
The process frequency can act as an actuator on any part of the MEMS. Depending on the geometry and materials of the MEMS under consideration, it is necessary to analyze to likelihood of problems. If one of the eigenfrequencies of the MEMS or the WLTFP is (very) close to the bonding frequency, it may start to resonate.

The thickness variation and the breakage of silicon diaphragms are mainly dictated by the grinding process, since grinding forces may deflect the diaphragm leading to non-uniform material removal within the cavity area. The thickness variation is largest at the centre of the cavity and decreases towards the edge of the cavity.

5 Facts About Grinding Processes. Grinding is machining process that's used to remove material from a workpiece via a grinding wheel. As the grinding wheel turns, it cuts material off the workpiece while creating a smooth surface texture in the process. While grinding sounds simple enough, there are probably some things you don't know about ...

This study designs a CMOS-MEMS probe chip and fabricates it using the 0.35 μm CMOS process of the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC).The post-CMOS procedure is a Micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) technology that involves steps such as lithography, electroless nickel (EN) plating, grinding and dry etching.
Coolant is used in centerless grinding to not only keep the grinding wheel cool, but also remove heat from the zone where the workpiece contacts the grinding wheel. Centerless grinding requires the use of correctly pressurized coolant to overcome the air barrier created between the grinding wheel and workpiece during the grinding process.
The custom-designed vacuum chuck is employed for holding the wafer and keeping it flat throughout the surface grinding process. The surface grinding performance is dominated by the following grinding conditions: (a) rotating speed, (b) cutting depth, (c) feed rate, and (d) grain size of the grinding wheel.
All commercially available grinding systems use a two-step process including a coarse grinding (with thinning rates of about 5 µm/sec) and a subsequent fine grinding (thinning rate ≤1µm/sec). The second step of the process is necessary to remove most of the damage layer created by the coarse grinding step and reduce surface roughness.
