    摘要: A package structure and method of packaging for an interferometric modulator. A transparent substrate having an interferometric modulator formed thereon is provided. A backplane is joined to the transparent substrate with a seal where the interferometric modulator is exposed to the surrounding environment through an opening in either the backplane or the seal. The opening is sealed after the transparent substrate and backplane are joined and after any desired desiccant, release material, and/or self-aligning monolayer is introduced into the package structure.

    摘要: One embodiment provides a method of testing humidity. The method includes measuring i) a first weight of a first device which encloses a plurality of interferometric modulators and ii) a second weight of a second device which encloses a plurality of interferometric modulators, wherein the first and second devices contain a different amount of water vapor. The method further includes comparing the weights of the first and second devices and determining a relative humidity value or a degree of the relative humidity inside one of the two devices based at least in part upon the weight comparison. In one embodiment, the relative humidity value or degree is determined considering at least one of the following parameters: i) temperature-humidity combination inside at least one of the devices, ii) the thickness and width of a seal of the at least one device, iii) adhesive permeability of a component of the at least one device, iv) a desiccant capacity inside the at least one device and v) a device size.

    摘要: Physical forces sufficient to deform an electronic device and/or packaging for the electronic device can damage the device. Some mechanical components in a device, for example, in a microelectromechanical device and/or in an interferometric modulator are particularly susceptible to damage. Accordingly, provided herein is a packaging system and packaged electronic device that resists physical damage, a method for manufacturing the same, and a method for protecting an electronic device from physical damage. The packaging system for the electronic device includes one or more spacers that prevent or reduce damage to the electronic device arising from contact with the packaging. In some embodiments, the packaged electronic device comprising spacers is thinner than a comparable device manufactured without spacers.

    摘要: Disclosed is an electronic device utilizing interferometric modulation and a package of the device. The packaged device includes a substrate, an interferometric modulation display array formed on the substrate, and a back-plate. The back-plate is placed over the display array with a gap between the back-plate and the display array. The device further includes reinforcing structures which are integrated with the back-plate. The reinforcing structures add stiffness to the back-plate. The back-plate may have a thickness varying along an edge thereof.
