Study on nano fabrication of silicon and glass by focused ion beam

The fabrication characteristic of etching and deposition of focused ion beam (FIB) on the submicron structure of silica and quartz glass was investigated. FIB has several advantages such as high sensitivity, high material removal rate, and direct fabrication in some selected areas without the use of etching mask, etc. In this study, silicon and quartz glass materials etched by FIB were used for fast fabrication of 3-D submicron structures to investigate the differences between the samples before and after fabrication. The expansion effect of silicon with sputtered platinum on surface is compared with Pyrex glass with sputtered chromium on surface. The result shows the side wall of structure in the center wouldn¡¦t be vertical after etching and trimming on the quartz glass and the silicon substrate. Trenches with different depth and width on the surface of silicon were etched by FIB and measured by Atomic Force Microscope. Lines with different interval were deposited by FIB on the surface of quartz glass and were measured by Atomic Force Microscope.
