ECE 197U / EE 298U Introduction to Microfabrication and MEMS
- 2nd Semester AY 2024-2025
- 3 units lecture, 1 unit laboratory
Course Description
ECE 197U / EE 298U is designed to introduce students to the fundamentals of microfabrication and its applications in integrated circuits (ICs) and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). The lectures discuss the theories behind standard microfabrication processes. The laboratory class then demonstrates these theories through hands-on experiments using actual microfabrication materials and equipment. Pre-req: Must have taken EEE 41 (Introduction to Semiconductor Devices and Circuits) or EEE 131 (Electronic Devices and Circuits) or equivalent courses
Course Description
At the end of this course, students should be able to:
- Understand fundamental principles of device microfabrication and technology
- Appreciate cleanroom operation, laboratory safety, and chemical handling principles
- Learn the basics of the operation of fabrication equipment in the UP Diliman Microfabrication Facility
- Learn the fundamentals and applications of MEMS devices
- Create a fabrication process plan from existing MEMS devices in the literature
