4-day SCME Pressure Sensor Cleanroom Workshop
This workshop is for College Faculty only!
Workshop Description
The purpose of these workshops is to provide an opportunity to learn how to integrate Microsystems Technology into STEM curriculum. You will learn how to use select SCME’s kits in the classroom and be provided hands-on experience on the process steps for fabricating a MEMS micro-pressure sensor in a research cleanroom.
Each participant will actively complete the following SCME kits:
Crytallography, Rainbow Wafer, Pressure Sensor Model, Lift-off, Pressure Sensor Process, MEMS: Making Micro Machines, MEMS Innovators
Cleanroom activities:
PS Activity 1: Plasma Etch and resist strip, PS Activity 2: Frontside Lithography and Metal Deposition, PS Activity 3: Test and Probe
