摘要: An electrostatically actuated double-clamped beam test structure has been designed and fabricated for the quantitative determination of adhesion forces between two contacting polycrystalline silicon (polysilicon) surfaces. The experimental measurements profile at varied bias simulations based on finite element methods are combined to evaluate more accurately experienced polysilicon In particular, electrostatic force pull-off is obtained by measuring voltage through optical interferometric methods. then determined from mechanical restoring calculated force. results show a weak scaling with apparent contact area, defined via microfabricated dimples.
