Microfabrication is a general, catch-all term that describes the technologies that are used to manufacture integrated circuits and micromachines [1]. It includes techniques for depositing or implanting dopants onto or into substrates, techniques for growing epitaxial layers onto substrates, methods for etching materials off of substrates, methods for oxidizing materials, methods for patterning one material on another material, and methods for diffusing dopants into materials. Most microfabrication techniques and technologies have at least their roots in technologies originally developed for the microelectronics industry, see for example [2]. Microfabrication is no longer the preserve of the microelectronics industry however; it is used in areas of optics such as integrated-optics and electro-photonics, it is used in the fabrication of microsensors [3], it is used to fabricate micro-electromechanical systems, and, of course, it is finding increasing applications in the biological sciences.
