Abstract

A Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS) probe is fabricated on a substrate for use in a probe card. The probe has a bonding surface to be attached to an application platform of the probe card. The bonding surface is formed on a plane perpendicular to a surface of the substrate. An undercut is formed beneath the probe for detachment of the probe from the substrate.
