ABSTRACT:
A fixed parallel plate micro-mechanical systems (MEMS) based sensor is fabricated to allow a dissolved dielectric to flow through a porous top plate, coming to rest on a bottom plate. A post-deposition bake ensures further purity and uniformity of the dielectric layer. In one embodiment, the dielectric is a polymer. In one embodiment, a support layer is deposited onto the top plate for strengthening the sensor. In another embodiment, the bottom plate is dual-layered for a narrowed gap. Integrated circuit arrays of such sensors can be made, having multiple devices separated from each other by a physical barrier, such as a polycrystalline containment rim or trough, for preventing polymer material from one sensor from interfering with that of another.
