  • Abstract
    In this paper, in-situ evaluation of a Young´s modulus for a polycrystalline Si (poly-Si) thin film on a PSG (Phosphorous doped silica glass) sacrifice layer is demonstrated based on the pull-in voltage of a cantilever, which is easily prepared during the MEMS´s fabrication process.
