Abstract: A MEMS accelerometer includes a base, proof mass, at least one pair of seesaw structures, and an out-of-plane displacement detection component. The at least one pair of the seesaw structures are oppositely disposed and fixed on the base through anchor points, and the out-of-plane displacement detection component is configured to detect rotation of the at least one pair of the seesaw structures or out-of-plane linear motion of the proof mass. Linear displacement of the MEMS accelerometer is not only beneficial to improve linearity of a capacitive displacement detection, but also to other non-capacitive detection methods, such as optical displacement detection. In addition, a double coupling structure is adopted to jointly couple rotation of seesaws, and remaining translational and rotational modes of the seesaw structures are suppressed.

Abstract: In an etch process chamber, oscillators are positioned a predetermined distance away from an outer wall and coupled to a microwave generator. An inner wall of the process chamber on which particulates such as polymers adhere from the etch process is vibrated via operations of the oscillators. A gas flows into the cavity defined by the inner wall to collect the displaced particulates, which is then pumped out of the cavity to clean the process chamber. A controller identifies the polymer recipe used during the etch process and selects an oscillation program from memory. A microwave generator, controlled by the controller, is directed to generate microwaves at preselected frequencies determined from the program. The microwave frequencies are communicated to the oscillators, which then vibrate the inner wall at such received frequencies.
