Research abstract
Wafer scale hermetic metal-metal sealing process provides robust packaging for MEMS and other components. Low bonding temperatures enable CMOS compatibility. This packaging process has been implemented in multiple MEMS applications, including high-gaccelerometers for munitions, automotive accelerometers, and for vacuum packaging high-Q resonators. Military applications include radar and communications applications.Commercial wireless applications include cellphone, WLAN and anticollision radar systems. Low bonding temperatures (down to room temperature) provide CMOS compatibility.
