摘要:
An electro-fluidic interconnection. The interconnection includes a body (200) formed of a ceramic material. The body (200) is provided with an aperture (206) having a profile suitable for receiving an interconnecting conduit (400). The interconnecting conduit (400) can be formed of the same type of ceramic material as the body (200). The conduit (400) is defined by an outer shell (403) with a hollow bore (402) for transporting a fluid. A mating portion (404) of the conduit has an exterior profile that matches the profile of the aperture. Moreover, the mating portion (404) of the conduit (400) can be compression fitted within the aperture (206). Conductive traces (406, 208) on the conduit and the body can be electrically connected to complete the electro-fluidic interconnection.
摘要:
A method for making an electronic device includes positioning first and second members so that opposing surfaces thereof are in contact with one another, the first member comprising silicon and the second member comprising a low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) material. The method further includes anodically bonding together the opposing surfaces of the first and second members to form a hermetic seal therebetween. The anodic bonding provides a secure and strong bond between the members without using adhesive. The method may further include forming at least one cooling structure in at least one of the first and second members. The least one cooling structure may comprise at least one first micro-fluidic cooling structure in the first member, and at least one second micro-fluidic cooling structure in the second member aligned with the at least one first micro-fluidic cooling structure.

A microelectromechanical structure and method is disclosed. A ceramic substrate preferably is formed from low temperature co-fired ceramic sheets. A low loss photodefinable dielectric planarizing layer is formed over one surface of the ceramic substrate. This layer can be a sacrificial layer or a subsequent sacrificial layer added. A photodefined conductor is printed over the low loss dielectric planarizing layer and formed with the sacrificial layer into a structural circuit component. In one aspect of the invention, a switch is formed with a biasing actuator and deflectable member formed over the biasing actuator and moveable into open and closed circuit positions.
