Laser Cutting, Scribing,
Singulation and Dicing of Silicon
Microelectromechanical System (MEMS) Devices
Laserod has been enjoying some success in laser
machining of MEMS devices. MEMS are
MicroElectroMechanicalSystems. MOEMS are
optical MEMS. Then there are RF MEMS, bioMEMS,
sensors, etc. For us, MEMS are always on silicon
substrates, are 3-dimensional, are sensitive to
debris and tend to be fragile.
Here are a three reasons why our laser
machining of MEMS is useful and why Laserod should
be your vendor of choice:
- We
have some of the highest tech laser equipment
to get "clean" results in MEMS
processing.
- Our
lasers enjoy spot sizes (cut widths really) typically in the range
of 10-25 microns.
- Clean
room processing.

Precision Laser Work:
Examples of microelectronic
micromachining of MEMS devices include cutting,
scribing, drilling, singulation and dicing. We
also laser saw, laser ablate, laser etch and
microdrill vias in semiconductor/MEMS wafers and
chips including RF MEMS, bioMEMS, sensors,
transducers, etc. To this list you can add
laser patterning thin metallic layers.
Advantages of our laser
micromachining of MEMS devices are minimal laser
debris and laser burning. Little or no
cleaning is required. More detailed
information about MEMS machining and samples of
our work are available on our website.

You may call us, fax us or e-mail your
requirements. If you fax us a sketch or e-mail a dxf or
dwg file, we can fax you a quotation. In most cases you
supply us the material. We will quote on a turnkey
basis, should you desire. Prototypes are welcome! We
sell systems as well as offering a laser processing
service.
