Abstract

Cet article présente les potentialités de films d'AlN piézoélectriques comme éléments actionneurs pour les MEMS. Le cas de micropoutres constituées d'un empilement de différents films (électrode/AlN/électrode/substrat Si) est présenté. Un dispositif interférométrique de type Twyman-Green permet de quantifier précisément les déformées et les déplacements ce qui permet de calculer, à l'aide des équations non simplifiées, différentes grandeurs physiques des films d'AlN, par exemple le module d'Young lié à l'orientation (002) des cristallites, les contraintes résiduelles consécutives au mode d'élaboration, le coefficient de dilatation α ainsi que le coefficient piézoélectrique d31. On retrouve sensiblement les valeurs du matériau massif.
