Design, Modeling and Simulation of MEMS Devices on Si, SiC, and Diamond for Harsh Environment Applications

Set of micromechanical (MEMS) test structures designed for fabrication on silicon, silicon carbide and diamond substrates has been successfully designed. A dedicated mask-set development has been carried along with numerical simulations performed with assistance of a dedicated design and modelling CoventorWare toolset by Coventor. A set of sample simulations presented in this paper has been performed for speci c simulation domains focused on silicon-alternative material reality to proof the usefulness of proposed substrates. The aim was to verify its applicability for MEMS design and con rm an outstanding performance of the resulting device which e ectively opens a new area of interest for subsequent research and development e orts.
