摘要
The monolithic integration of electronic circuits in standard CMOS technology with high aspect ratio micromechanical structures based on single-crystal silicon is presented. For this technology neither silicon on insulator (SOI) wafers nor wet processes are required. A resonator device is chosen for technology demonstration. The effect of micromachining on parameters of CMOS transistors is detected and the usefulness of a final annealing step is confirmed. A novel electronic circuit design allows signal processing, even for low resonator signal levels and strong parasitic effects. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
