3 CMOS-MEMS devices Introduc5on thin film Mechanical property E, σ, ν. The performance of the devices depends on the cons5tu5ve proper5es of the thin film made by CMOS process. It is known that the proper5es of thin- film are different from bulk material, depending on the deposi5on process. The material proper5es, such as Young s modulus and residual stress, should be controlled by the real- 5me monitoring to ensure the repeatability for each device. - 3-
