Abstract: The present invention provides a microstructure device comprising multiple substrates with the components of the device formed on the substrates. In order to maintain uniformity of the gap between the substrates, a plurality of pillars is provided and distributed in the gap so as to prevent decrease of the gap size. The increase of the gap size can be prevented by bonding the pillars to the components of the microstructure. Alternatively, the increase of the gap size can be prevented by maintaining the pressure inside the gap below the pressure under which the microstructure will be in operation. Electrical contact of the substrates on which the micromirrors and electrodes are formed can be made through many ways, such as electrical contact areas, electrical contact pads and electrical contact springs.

Abstract: A microelectromechanical device package with integral a heater and a method for packaging the microelectromechanical device are disclosed in this invention. The microelectromechanical device package comprises a first package substrate and second substrate, between which a microelectromechanical device, such as a micromirror array device is located. In order to bonding the first and second package substrates so as to package the microelectromechanical device inside, a sealing medium layer is deposited, and heated by the heater so as to bond the first and second package substrates together.

Abstract: A microstructure is packaged with a device substrate of the microstructure being attached to a package substrate. For dissipating possible deformation of the microstructure, which may result in device failure or quality degradation of the microstructure, an adhesive material comprising a compliant adhesive component is applied and positioned between the device substrate and package substrate.

Abstract: A novel method of packaging electronic devices (e.g. any device that receives or transmits electronic signals) including microelectromechanical devices, semiconductor devices, light emitting devices, light modulating devices, light modulating devices, and light detecting device has been provided herein. The electronic device is placed between two substrates, at least one of which has a cavity for holding the electronic device. The two substrates are then bonded and hermetically sealed with a sealing medium. The adhesion of the sealing medium to the substrates, especially when one of the two substrates is ceramic, can be improved by applying a metallization layer to the surface of the substrate.
