Abstract: A microelectromechanical system (MEMS) device (10) for determining the
position of a mover (50) has a bottom layer (20) connected to a mover
layer (40). The mover layer (40) is connected to amover (50) by flexures (80). The mover (50)
moves relative to the mover layer (40) and the bottom layer (20). The flexures (80) urge the mover
(50) back to an initial position of mechanical equilibrium. The flexures (80) include coupling blocks
(100) to control movement of the mover (50). The MEMS device (10) determines the location
ofthe mover (50) by determining the capacitance between mover electrodes (102) located on the
coupling blocks (100) ofthe flexures (80) and counter electrodes (92) located on an adjacent layer
(20, 30). The coupling block (100) moves according to a determinable relationship with the mover
(50). As the coupling block (100) moves, the capacitance between the mover electrode (102) and
the counter electrode (92) changes. A capacitance detector (96) analyzes the capacitance between
the electrodes (90, 102) determines the position of the mover (50).

Abstract: A method of forming organic spacers using an N 2  plasma or N 2  containing plasma
anisotropic etchant, and using such organic spacers for forming features on a semiconductor
structure such as vias having a smaller dimension than can be defined by lithographic techniques
Other features formed according to the teachings of this invention include Source/Drain (S/D) areas,
LDD/extension areas and graded junctions with larger S/D silicide/contact areas. The process for
forming the organic spacers comprises conformally coating a patterned semiconductor structure with
an organic material such as, for example, an antireflective coating. The coated structure is then
anisotropically etched with N 2  plasma or N 2  containing plasma which forms the organic spacers.
Organic spacers may be formed by the method of this invention or any other known method and
used to form other device features such as (i) larger S/D contact areas, which may include graded
junctions; and (ii) larger S/D contact areas and LDD/extensions, which may also include graded
junctions with a single implant step.
