Abstract

A method of fabricating a MEMS device includes an epi-polysilicon cap layer epitaxially growth on one of a substrate or a sacrificial layer deposited on the substrate. A portion of the epi-polysilicon cap layer has been removed to form a plurality of access openings. The sacrificial layer is etched away to form a cavity below the access openings. A barrier layer is deposited over the epi-polysilicon cap layer, inner walls of the cavity, and inner walls of the access openings using an atomic layer deposition (ALD) process. A refill epi-polysilicon layer is epitaxially grown in the access openings and seals the openings after the cavity is formed.
