Two Scales of the Contact
Nominal Surface
• Contact Bump (larger, micro-scale)
• Asperities (smaller, nano-scale)

Basics of Hertz Contact So the pressure distribution given by:

But wait – that’s not all !
Same pressure on a small circular region of a locally
spherical body will produce same change in curvature.

Assumptions of Hertz Contacting bodies are locally spherical
Contact radius << dimensions of the body
Linear elastic and isotropic material properties
Neglect friction
Neglect adhesion
Hertz developed this theory as a graduate student during his 1881 Christmas vacation
What will you do during your Christmas vacation ?????

Onset of Yielding Yielding initiates below the surface when VM = Y which for Poisson’s
ratio of 0.3 occurs when the average contact pressure is 1.07*Y.
Elasto-Plastic(contained plastic flow)
With continued loading the plastic zone grows and reaches the surface
Eventually the pressure distribution is uniform, i.e. p=P/A=H (hardness) and the contact is called fully plastic (H 2.8Y).
Fully Plastic(uncontained plastic flow)

Round Bump Fabrication
• Critical issues for profile transfer:– Process Pressure– Biased Power– Gas Ratio
Photo Resist Before Reflow
Photo Resist After Reflow
The shape of the photo resist is transferred to the silicon by using SF6/O2/Ar ICP silicon etching process.

the hardness (H)

Multi-Asperity Models(Greenwood and Williamson, 1966, Proceedings of the Royal Society
of London, A295, pp. 300-319.)
Assumptions All asperities are spherical and have the same
summit curvature. The asperities have a statistical distribution of
heights (Gaussian). Deformation is linear elastic and isotropic. Asperities are uncoupled from each other. Ignore bulk deformation.

Greenwood and Williamson
ME6260/EECE724422
Greenwood & Williamson Model
For a Gaussian distribution of asperity heights the contact area is almost linear in the normal force.
Elastic deformation is consistent with Coulomb friction i.e. A P, F A, hence F P, i.e. F = N
Many modifications have been made to the GW theory to include more effects many are not important.
Especially important is plastic deformation and adhesion.

Contacts With Adhesion
(van der Waals Forces) Surface forces important in MEMS due to scaling
Surface forces ~L2 or L; weight as L3
Surface Forces/Weight ~ 1/L or 1/L2
Consider going from cm to m
MEMS Switches can stick shut
Friction can cause “moving” parts to stick, i.e. “stiction”
Dry adhesion only at this point; meniscus forces later

Forces of Adhesion Important in MEMS Due to Scaling
