Abstract :
The microengineered 5×5×3.2 mm3 silicon-glass glow-discharge high vacuum micropump has been presented in this article. Preliminary results showed very good pumping properties (p <; 10-6 hPa), more than three orders of magnitude better than NEG getter can provide. Micropump integrated with other nanoelectronics devices helps to stabilize their operation.
