Karl, Charles and I measured the burst pressure and permeance of some 30-50-30 and 30-100-30 NSN. Burst Pressure: The SEPCONs readily burst at pressures under 1 psi when the flow was directed from the backside of the chip through the membrane. The membranes were able to withstand higher pressures when the pressure was applied from…
Still trying to reproduce Joe’s large pore material on SEPCONs using NSN stacks. This post has data from two wafers with 30/50/30 and 30/100/30 NSN. RTP is 1000C 50C/s for 1min. Nitride is etched off by placing samples in 50% HF for 3.5 minutes. (~30s after that the films start to lift off) I start…
We are trying to reproduce the very small pores Joe created with 30/100/30 OSO and large pores created with 30/100/30 NSN using a SEPCON pattern. (Joe’s previous post.) We had a problem with several chips releasing from the center of the wafer prior to completely clearing all the features. In the future we will use…
