Abstract

In this paper, a novel processing technique for fabrication of high-temperature MEMS based on polymer-derived SiCN microstructures is described. PDMS molds are fabricated on SU-8 photoresist using standard UV-photolithographic processes. Liquid precursors are injected into the PDMS mold. And then, the resulting solid polymer structures are crosslinked under isostatic pressure, and pyrolyzed to form a ceramic capable of withstanding over $1500^{\circ}C$. These fabricated SiCN structures would be applied for high-temperature applications, such as heat exchanger and combustion chamber.
