Abstract:
1. A hermetically sealed package, comprising: a first plate including inside and outside surfaces; one or more electronic components, including anode and cathode electrodes, disposed on the inside surface of the first plate; a second plate including inside and outside surfaces; frit material disposed on the inside surface of the second plate; and at least one dielectric layer disposed directly or indirectly on at least one of: (i) the inside surface of the first plate at least opposite to the frit material, and (ii) the inside surface of the second plate at least directly or indirectly on the frit material, with the at least one dielectric layer at least partially covering at least one of the anode and cathode electrodes; wherein the frit material forms a hermetic seal against the dielectric layer in response to heating.
