Abstract
A method of fabricating a wafer comprising MEMS devices comprises etching trenches or vias into the wafer using a deep reactive ion etching process wherein this process forms residual polymers on sidewalls of the trenches or vias. The wafer is exposed to a dry-cleaning process wherein residual polymers are removed. The dry-cleaning process comprises hot oven baking, combustion, or laser beam illumination.
