摘要:
A method for forming a coating of material on selected portions of a surface of a substrate having a plurality of cavities, each cavity having outer, peripheral sidewalls extending outwardly from the surface. The method includes: providing a structure having a release agent thereon; contacting top surface of the wafer with the release agent to transfer portions of the release agent to the top surface of the wafer while bottom portions of the cavities remain spaced from the release agent to produce an intermediate structure; the release agent disposed on the top surface of the wafer and with the bottom portions of the cavities void of the release agent; exposing the intermediate structure to the material to blanket coat the material on both the release agent and the bottom portions of the cavities; and selectively removing the release agent together with the coating material while leaving the coating material on the bottom portions of the cavities.

Methods for reducing wafer bow induced by an anti-reflective coating of a cap wafer are provided. The method may utilize a shadow mask having at least one opening therein that is positioned opposite recessed regions in a cap wafer. The method may further include depositing at least one layer of an anti-reflective coating material through the shadow mask onto a planar side of a cap wafer to provide a discontinuous coating on the planar side.

A pixel structure, which may be used for infrared bolometers or other microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices, configured to increase immunity of the pixel to molecular heat transfer and reduce the vacuum requirements for a wafer level packaged device incorporating the pixel or an array thereof. In one example, the pixel has a perforated body or discontinuous surface structure.

A focal plane array includes a mosaic integrated circuit device having a plurality of discrete integrated circuit tiles mounted on a motherboard. The focal plane array includes an optically continuous detector array electrically connected to the mosaic integrated circuit device with an interposer disposed therebetween. The interposer is configured to adjust a pitch of the continuous detector array to match a pitch of each of the plurality of discrete integrated circuit tiles so that the optical gaps between each of the plurality of integrated circuit tiles on the motherboard are minimized and the detector array is optically continuous, having high yield over the large format focal plane array.

An electronic device and methods of manufacture thereof. One or more methods may include providing a lid wafer having a cavity and a surface surrounding the cavity and a device wafer having a detector device and a reference device. In certain examples, a solder barrier layer of titanium material may be deposited onto the surface of the lid wafer. The solder barrier layer of titanium material may further be activated to function as a getter. In various examples, the lid wafer and the device wafer may be bonded together using solder, and the solder barrier layer of titanium material may prevent the solder from contacting the surface of the lid wafer.

A microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) package includes a substrate extending between a first pair of outer edges to define a length and a second pair of outer edges to define a width. A seal ring assembly is disposed on the substrate and includes at least one seal ring creating a first boundary point adjacent to at least one MEMS device and a second boundary point adjacent at least one of the outer edges. The package further includes a window lid on the seal ring assembly to define a seal gap containing the at least one MEMS device. The seal ring assembly anchors the window lid to the substrate at the second boundary point such that deflection of the window lid into the seal gap is reduced.

A structure for detecting electromagnetic radiation having a predetermined wavelength. The structure includes a device wafer having a sensing element disposed on a predetermined region of a surface of the device wafer responsive to the electromagnetic radiation. A cover wafer is provided having a region thereof transparent to the electromagnetic radiation for passing the electromagnetic radiation through the transparent region onto a surface of the sensing element. A bond gap spacer structure is provided for supporting the surface of the sensing element from an opposing surface of the transparent region of the cover wafer a distance less than a fraction of the predetermined wavelength when the cover wafer is bonded to the device wafer.
