摘要
This paper describes a new method for fabricating through-wafer interconnects in atom trapping chips used in ultra-high-vacuum atom-optics cells for Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) experiments. A fabrication process was developed which uses copper electroplating to seal the vias. The advantages of using feedthrough atom trapping chips are the simple microfabrication process and the reduction of the overall chip area bonded to the glass atom trapping cell. The results demonstrate that 11 A current can be conducted through the vias while the vacuum can be held under 4 x 10(-11) Torr at room temperature. The yield rate of fabricated via interconnects in this process after anodic bonding ( requires heating to 425 degrees C) is 97%.
