Alumina MEMS Platform for Impulse Semiconductor and IR Optic Gas Sensors

Abstract: In the presentation, we discuss the application of a novel MEMS technology based on a fabrication of thin alumina film (TAF). The membrane is fabricated by the electrolyte spark oxidation of aluminum. The membrane consists of nano-crystalline γ-aluminum oxide and has a thickness of 10 -30 microns. It was shown that this membrane chip can be used for the fabrication of gas sensors (semiconductor, thermocatalytic, and optic) operating in impulse regime. The thermal response time of the heater is of about 80 ms, … Show more

“…The principle of sensing mostly depends on the sensing materials. For example, a formaldehyde gas sensor is developed based on the solid-state sensor of NiO thin film [74] , while other MEMS gas sensors can be based on the optical gas sensor [75] , acoustic gas sensor [76] , and electrochemical gas sensor [77] .…”

“…First, the high stability of the ceramic materials used in the developed microhotplate at high temperatures allows for the use of a wide range of technologies, up to the most extreme technological processes for synthesis MOX gas sensitive materials-for example, flame pyrolysis [42]. Additional flexibility is given by using a hot spot layout of microhotplate by a "circle" type, which allows the use of drop coating or inkjet printing technologies for the deposition of MOX for longterm stability and methods of deposition using screen printing [43]. The hot spot size of approximately 280 µm and the high mechanical strength of the YSZ membrane allows for easy screen printing.…”

“…After long-term experiments with wide spectres of perspective ceramics MEMS technologies [22] and materials (ZrO2 [23], Al2O3 [24], LTCC [25]) used for MEMS platforms fabrication we have chosen combination of the laser micromilling of monolithic ceramics (further will describe the result based on 99,9% Al2O3 commercially available) and printed technologies to form metallization on MEMS microhotplate and SMD package.…”
