    摘要: A method for producing an integrated device. A source substrate is provided, the source substrate carrying one or more components to be attached to a receiver surface having a uneven topography. The source substrate includes a deformable layer on a surface on which the one or more components are carried. The source substrate is aligned such that said one or more components carried thereon are associated with contact areas of the receiver surface. The source substrate and the receiver surface are moved towards each other such that the one or more components are brought into contact with the contact areas wherein the deformable layer is at least partially deformed. The source substrate is removed such that the one or more of the components remain located on the contact areas of the receiver surface.

    摘要: A vertically integrated structure includes a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) and a chip for delivering signals to the MEMS. The structure includes a metal stud connecting a surface of the chip and the MEMS; the MEMS has an anchor portion having a conducting pad on an underside thereof contacting the metal stud. The MEMS is spaced from the chip by a distance corresponding to a height of the metal stud, and the MEMS includes a doped region in contact with the conducting pad. In particular, the MEMS may include a cantilever structure, with the end portion including a tip extending in the vertical direction. A support structure (e.g. of polyimide) may surround the metal stud and contact both the underside of the MEMS and the surface of the chip. A temporary carrier plate is used to facilitate handling of the MEMS and alignment to the chip.

    摘要: A vertically integrated structure includes a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) and a chip for delivering signals to the MEMS. The MEMS has an anchor portion having a conductor therethrough, by which it is connected to a substrate. The chip is attached to the MEMS substrate in a direction normal to the substrate surface, so as to make a conductive path from the chip to the MEMS. The chip may be attached by bonding the conductor to C4 metal pads formed on the chip, or by bonding the conductor to metal studs on the chip. The MEMS substrate may be thinned before attachment to the chip, or may be removed from the underside of the MEMS. A temporary carrier plate is used to facilitate handling of the MEMS and alignment to the chip.

    摘要: A microsystem switch (1, 20, 25, 30, 33) has a support (2) defining a recess (3), and a flexible bridge (6) is mounted on the support (2) bridging the recess (3). The bridge (6) is shaped so as to hold selectively a concave stable state, in which the bridge bulges into the recess (3), and a convex stable state in which the bridge bulges out of the recess (3). The switch includes an actuator (8, 9; 26, 27) for effecting flexing of the bridge (6) between the stable states, and a switching element (7, 31, 34) is mounted on the bridge (6) such that movement of the bridge between the stable states moves the switching element between an on position and an off position. According to another design, a microsystem switch (40, 55) has a support (41) defining a recess (42), and an elongate torsion member (44) is mounted on the support (41) bridging the recess (42). A flexible bridge (43, 56) is mounted on the support (41) bridging the recess (42) in a direction substantially perpendicular to the torsion member (44). The bridge (43, 56) is connected to the torsion member (44) at the cross-point thereof so that a first section of the bridge extends between the cross-point and one side of the recess (42) and a second section of the bridge extends between the cross-point and the opposite side of the recess (42). The bridge (43, 56) is shaped so as to hold selectively a first stable state, in which the first section of the bridge bulges into the recess and the second section of the bridge bulges out of the recess, and a second stable state in which this configuration is reversed. A switching element (45) is mounted at the cross-point of the bridge (43, 56) and torsion member (44), and an actuator (46a, 46b; 58a, 58b) is again provided for effecting flexing of the bridge (43, 56) between the stable states. Here, movement of the bridge (43, 56) between the stable states effects twisting of the torsion member (44) and rotation of the switching element (45) between an on position and an off position. Switching devices incorporating these switches, and switching apparatus comprising arrays of such switching devices, are also provided.
