  • Patent number: 7816164
    Abstract: Methods for forming a MEMS display device are provided. In one embodiment, a transparent substrate comprising an array of MEMS devices (e.g., interferometric modulators) formed thereon is annealed following removal of a sacrificial silicon layer. The array is subsequently encapsulated with a backplate comprising a desiccant. MEMS devices disposed below the desiccant have an offset voltage substantially equal to zero.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 1, 2006
    Date of Patent: October 19, 2010
    Assignee: QUALCOMM MEMS Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Manish Kothari, Fritz Y. F. Su, Bangalore Natarajan, Nassim Khonsari
