概要(目的・用途・実施内容)/ Abstract (Aim, Use Applications and Contents)

The purpose of this research is to realize high fracture strength and long fatigue life micromirrors with low cost. We compared the reliabilities of micromirrors made from Si and SOI wafers by fracture and fatigue tests under torsional load. Four types of micromirror with different dimensions were fabricated using both wafers. Torsional fracture and fatigue tests were conducted using a custom-made vibration test system. The effect of the fabrication process was evaluated.

実験 / Experimental

Mirror specimens were fabricated using Si and SOI wafers as shown in Fig. 1. Upper and lower side photolithography were carried out by UV-nanoimprint lithography and infrared mask aligner while the deep reactive ion etching machine was used for silicon trench etching from the both sides. An oxide protective film was formed on the top surface by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition before backside etching.

結果と考察 / Results and Discussion

The fracture strength of the SOI-made micromirrors was 2.01 to 2.95 GPa, whereas those of the Si-made ones were lower by 10 to 30%. The decrease in strength was caused by the sidewall roughness produced during deep reactive ion etching, since the maximum stress appears at the center line of the torsional beam where high roughness existed. The low fracture strength also shortened the fatigue life of the Si-made mirrors, but there is no significant difference in fatigue exponents (N) between the Si- and SOI-made samples.
