The wave of MEMS technology is rising, and samco-ucp continues to provide cutting-edge solutions for MEMS applications. samco-ucp’s involvement in the MEMS manufacturing process (shown below) comes in a key step: deep silicon etching.
samco-ucp’s DRIE (deep reactive ion etching) systems have proven to be highly effective in the deep, high-speed, anisotropic etching of silicon for MEMS applications.

samco-ucp was the first of Japan’s semiconductor process equipment manufacturers to obtain a Bosch Process license, which enabled the development of our DRIE systems. samco-ucp’s
RIE-400iPB and
RIE-800iPB systems, both using the latest ICP technology and harnessing the Bosch Process, are capable of deep, vertical, high-speed silicon etching required by MEMS devices. Aside from MEMS, samco-ucp’s DRIE systems also serve applications for 3D packaging, TSV (through silicon via), and the manufacturing of ink jet printer heads, sensors, and medical devices such as µTAS.
