An optical-electrical interface for interfacing optical signals with electrical signals. The optical-electrical interface includes an alignment interface for receiving an external waveguide connector from a first side. The alignment interface includes an alignment structure to mate with a corresponding alignment structure of the external waveguide connector to passively align the external waveguide connector. A first microlens is disposed on the first side of the alignment interface. A second microlens is disposed on a second side of the alignment interface. An optical path passes through the alignment interface between the first microlens and the second microlens. A conductor is disposed on the second side of the alignment interface.

Optical devices and methods for constructing the same are disclosed. An example optical device includes an optical transmitter, a photodetector and a waveguide optically coupling the optical transmitter and the photodetector. It also includes a substrate having a first cavity to receive the optical transmitter and a second cavity to receive the second transmitter. The first and second cavities are located and dimensioned to passively align the optical transmitter, the waveguide and the photodetector when the transmitter is inserted into the first cavity and the photodetector is inserted into the second cavity.
摘要:
A solder is deposited on the backside of a wafer. The wafer can be pre-deposited with a barrier layer such as a titanium base and other materials. Deposition is carried out by electroplating, electroless plating, chemical vapor deposition, and physical vapor deposition. The solder-deposited die is bonded with a heat spreader that did not require a pre-deposited solder.

According to one embodiment an apparatus and method for MEMS packaging including a reactive nano-layer is presented. The apparatus comprises a substrate, an environmentally sensitive device on the substrate, a cap to fit over the device, and a hermetic seal between the cap and the substrate. The hermetic seal comprises a solder layer, and a reactive layer including one or more elements that react together through an initiating energy to emit exothermic heat to melt the solder layer.

Microelectronic packages having chambers and sealing materials, and methods of making the packages, and sealing the chambers, are disclosed. An exemplary package may include a first surface, a second surface, a solid sealing material including an intermetallic compound, such as, for example, of gallium or another relatively low melting material, between the first surface and the second surface, and a chamber defined by the first surface, the second surface, and the sealing material. An exemplary method may include disposing a ring of a sealing material including a liquid metal between a first surface and a second surface to define a chamber between the first surface, the second surface, and the ring of the sealing material, and sealing the chamber by heating the sealing material to react the liquid metal with a metal that is capable of forming an intermetallic compound with the liquid metal.
