Popis: This paper is dedicated to the fabrication and technological aspect of a silicon microresonator sensor. The entire project includes the fabrication processes, the system modelling/simulation, and the electronic interface. The mechanical model of such resonator is presented including description of frequency stability and Hysterises behaviour of the electrostatically driven resonator. Numeric model and FEM simulations are used to simulate the system dynamic behaviour. The complete fabrication process is based on standard microelectronics technology with specific MEMS technological steps. The key steps are described: micromachining on SOI by Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE), specific release processes to prevent sticking (resist and HF-vapour release process) and collective vacuum encapsulation by Silicon Direct Bonding (SDB). The complete process has been validated and prototypes have been fabricated. The ASIC was designed to interface the sensor and to control the vibration amplitude. This electronic was simulated and designed to work up to 200°C and implemented in a standard 0.6μ CMOS technology. Characterizations of sensor prototypes are done both mechanically and electrostatically. These measurements showed good agreements with theory and FEM simulations.
