Drift diffusion model for proton beam writing in p-GaAs — •Alrik Stegmaier, Tristan Koppe, Charlotte Rothfuchs, Ulrich Vetter, and Hans Hofsäss — 2. Physikalisches Institut, Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Friedrich-Hund-Platz 1, 37077 Göttingen

Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are micrometer scale systems that combine electrial and mechanical functionality for applications like energy harvesters, accelerometers and pressure sensors [1,2].

Proton beam writing (PBW) is a relatively new, maskless lithographic method for the production of microstructures for such applications [3]. It has been shown that it is possible with PBW to produce 3D structures by varying only the fluence of the proton irradiation on a p-GaAs sample, followed by electrochemical etching [4].

Optimization of the resolution of PBW in p-GaAs requires precise models of the irradiation and etching process. Progress has been made in the past with ohmic simulations of the process [5]. Here a drift-diffusion model for the semiconductor material, together with an empirical model for proton irradiation induced defects and a model for the surface electrochemistry is presented.
