Abstract: In a method of vacuum packaging a MEMS device, at least one MEMS device is attached on a substrate. A solder preform is printed on the substrate at the perimeter surrounding the substrate. A lid is attached to the solder preform wherein the lid provides a cavity enclosing the at least one MEMS device. A first reflowing step reflows the solder at a first temperature, partially sealing the lid/substrate interface and at the same time does the outgassing and baking procedure for the packaging. Flux is applied onto an outer ring of the solder preform and a second step reflows the solder at a second temperature, completely sealing the lid/substrate interface and providing a vacuum cavity enclosing the at least one MEMS device.

Abstract: A color filter includes a plurality of pixels, each of which includes a red, a green, and a blue sub-pixel alternately arranged in a first direction, edges of the red, green, and blue sub-pixels having bent portions. The sub-pixels of a same color are continuously arranged in a second direction being substantially perpendicular to the first direction. Displaying color images of a liquid crystal display using the color filter may be better than that of the liquid crystal display using the typical color filters. The yield ratio in mass production of the liquid crystal display using the color filter is lower than that of the liquid crystal display using the typical color filters. In addition, a liquid crystal display using the color filter is disclosed.

Abstract: A color filter (100) includes pixels (110), each pixel including three sub-pixels (111), and each sub-pixel including a reflection section (R) and a transmission section (T). In each pixel, the transmission sections and the reflection sections are alternately arranged along each row of the sections and along each column of the sections. The alternating arrangement of the transmission sections and the reflection sections of the pixels can provide a uniform pattern of hue balance over the whole display area. Furthermore, in various embodiments described, different optical thicknesses of the transmission sections and the reflection sections (or color layers of the reflection sections) can provide uniform hue over the whole display area.

Abstract: A preferred method for manufacturing a color filter includes the steps of: providing a color filter substrate (60) and forming a black matrix (31) on the substrate by using a patterned mask (21); providing another three patterned masks (23, 25, 27) and respectively forming three kinds of interferential layers (33, 35, 37) for separately displaying red, green and blue. The materials of the deposited films of the preferred method as described are metal-oxide materials, which improve the heat resistance and color reproduction of the color filter. Further, such materials decrease the time needed to perform the entire process, because the thickness and quantity of the deposited films can be readily controlled based on the optical simulation data obtained beforehand.
