Abstract :
A 1.5 μm thin SiO2/Si3N4/SiO 2 membrane was manufactured on ⟨100⟩ Silicon substrate. Also a 10-20 μm thin GaAs membrane was manufactured using a new etching solution. Both types of membranes are destined to be used as support for microwave circuits; this has as effect a major improvement of circuits´ performances
