Abstract
Disclosed herein is a method for manufacturing a micro-electromechanical structure. The method includes the following steps. A circuitry layer having a release feature is formed on an upper surface of a first substrate. A passive layer is formed on the circuitry layer without covering the release feature. The release feature is removed to expose the first substrate by a wet etching process. A portion of the exposed first substrate is anisotropically etched. A second substrate is disposed above the circuitry layer. A cavity is formed in the lower surface of the first substrate. The cavity is filled with a polymeric material. A portion of the first substrate under the microstructure is removed to release the micro-electromechanical structure.
