    摘要: A process for constructing a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) device includes etching the topside of a silicon wafer to form a first support layer having asymmetric pads. The backside of the silicon wafer is etched to form a top layer with a mirror, beam structures extending from the mirror, and rotating comb teeth extending from the beam structures. Before or after the backside of the silicon wafer is etched, the topside of the silicon wafer is bonded to a glass wafer that forms a second support layer. Prior to bonding the silicon wafer to the glass wafer, the glass wafer may be etched to form a recess and/or a cavity that accommodates mobile elements in the silicon wafer. Due to the asymmetry of the pads in the first support layer below the rotating comb teeth in the top layer, oscillation can be initiated.

    摘要: A micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) device includes a mirror having a top surface with trenches, a beam connected to the mirror, rotational comb teeth connected to the beam, and one or more springs connecting the beam to a bonding pad. The mirror can have a bottom surface for reflecting light. The mirror can include a top flange and a bottom flange joined by a web, wherein the top and the bottom flanges form the top and the bottom surfaces, respectively. The rotational comb teeth can have a tapered shape. Stationary comb teeth can be interdigitated with the rotational comb teeth either in-plane or out-of-plane. Steady or oscillating voltage difference between the rotational and the stationary comb teeth can be used to oscillate or tune the mirror.

    摘要: A MEMS scanning mirror device includes a scanning mirror, rotational comb teeth, stationary comb teeth, distributed serpentine springs, and anchors. The scanning mirror and the rotational comb teeth are driven by electrostatic force from stationary in-plane and/or out-of-plane teeth. The mirror is attached to the rotational comb structure by multiple support attachments. Multiple serpentine springs serve as the flexible hinges that link the movable structure to the stationary support structure.

    摘要: A method for forming semiconductor devices with wafer-level packaging (WLP) includes providing a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate, forming a mask on a silicon layer of the SOI substrate, etching the silicon layer through openings in the mask to form elements initially bonded to but later released from an insulator layer of the SOI substrate, bonding a support substrate to the silicon layer, depositing metal over through holes in the support substrate to contact the silicon layer, and singulating the semiconductor devices from the bonded SOI substrate and the support substrate. The support substrate defines depressions opposite the elements so the elements are not bonded to the support substrate. Each semiconductor device includes a hermetically sealed package having a portion of the SOI substrate and a portion of the support substrate.

    摘要: A battery has a battery case with a hole, and a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) safety valve mounted to the battery case over the hole. The MEMS safety valve includes a silicon diaphragm and a silicon electrode layer with a movable electrode mounted above the diaphragm, a stationary electrode around the movable electrode, and one or more links electrically connecting the movable and the stationary electrodes. The stationary electrode, the links, and the movable electrode form part of an electrical path between one or more battery cells and a battery terminal. The links break to open the electrical path when the pressure in the battery case pushes the diaphragm and the links past a first limit. The diaphragm breaks to release fluid from the battery case when the pressure pushes the diaphragm past a second limit. The first limit may be smaller, larger, or the same as the second limit.
