After successful completion of the course, students are able to...
to name all major manufacturing processes of micro- & nano-structuring and to explain the principles. The students learn to compare different production processes and to weigh the pros and cons critically. This LVA gives students the understanding to develop process sequences for the complete production of components of microelectronics, photonics and microsystems technology by combining the learned manufacturing processes independently.
Comprehensive knowledge of the processes and technologies that form the basis for modern nanoelectronics, nanophotonics and microsystems technology. Elemental and compound semiconductor of group IV and III-V and oxide ceramics are the focus on the material side. Process technologies for the manufacture of micro- and nano-scale, 1-, 2- and 3-dimensional structures, components and devices. Primary concerns are the key processes including layer structure with photo- and electron beam lithography and etching techniques with RF plasma processes, selective growth processes for (quasi-) 1-, 2- dimensional structures such as nanodots and nanowires, and in-situ and ex-situ Characterization methods.
