|Abstract:||Integrated gaseous pixel detectors consisting of a metal punctured foil suspended in the order of 50μm over a pixel readout chip by means by SU-8 insulating pillars have been fabricated.
SU-8 is used as sacrificial layer but metallization over uncrosslinked SU-8 presents adhesion and stress problems. In this paper we describe the several methods we have investigated to fabricate a metal layer on top of a partially crosslinked SU-8 film and the challenges we have encountered.
The fabrication process using wafer post processing has been proven, but in cases where single chip processing is desirable, edge bead is a major problem to overcome as it can cover a considerable chip area, reducing the detector performance; we show different techniques to reduce this edge bead and improve detection efficiency.
