Abstract
A method of manufacturing a vertical comb structure for a micro electromechanical (MEMS) device. Tooth structures are formed on a first wafer. A second wafer is then bonded to the tooth structures of the first wafer. The tooth structures are then released to form a comb structure. Forming the tooth structures on the first wafer includes using oxidation, photolithography, etching, epitaxy, and chemical and mechanical polishing to create the tooth structures on the first wafer.
