module properties module number 101728 - common information
module number	101728
department	Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology
ID of group	2142 (Nanotechnology)
module leader	Prof. Dr. Heiko Jacobs
language	English (Deutsch)
term	Sommersemester
previous knowledge and experience	Physics, Chemistry, Materials, and Electronics at the Bachelor level
learning outcome	The participant obtains hands-on experience in the fabrication of micro and nanotechnological devices. The majority of the experiments will be carried out within am educational laboratory setting which houses the required equipment. The student get familiar with the equipment and the process flow commonly used in the fabrication of micro and nanotechnological devices. Learning Goals: The participant gains basic skills on the technological steps used in the manufacturing of modern micro/nanofabricated devices which integrate electronic and sensing elements in a small form factor integrated system. The participant gets to know the equipment, measuring techniques, and principles of operation. The lab-course mimics the main steps of semiconductor processing as it is used in the industry today and provide an important link to the theory which was provided in the lectures. The lab-course provides an entry to the fabrication and processing of modern semiconductor devices which includes the fields of MEMS, NEMS, Sensors, Electronics, Photovoltaics, Bioelectronics, Nanoelectronics to name the most relevant today.
content	Lab course on selected problems: You will apply the technology to fabricate a micro mechanical pressure sensor based on a Si membrane integrated on a Si - chip. You will study the influence of technological processing parameters on device properties. The processing you will carry out includes: Wafer cleaning, Thermal Oxidation, Sputtering and Evaporation, Dry Etching, Spin Coating, and Electrical contact formation Characterisation methods include: Optical Microscopy, Ellipsometric measurements, and Electrical characterisation/probe station. You will also get a brief introduction to the operation of vacuum pumps and vacuum measurement equipment commonly used in the industry. Praktikumsverantwortlicher: M. Sc.
