Abstract:
1. An integrated device comprising: a transistor formed on a substrate; a light modulator formed over a protective layer that is configured to protect the transistor during fabrication of the light modulator, the protective layer overlying the transistor, the light modulator comprising a reflective layer movable towards a bottom electrode, the bottom electrode being located between the reflective layer and the substrate; a support structure formed over the protective layer, the support structure configured to support the reflective layer; a dielectric layer formed over the support structure; a contact hole through the support structure and the dielectric layer, the reflective layer being coupled to the transistor through the contact hole; wherein the transistor is configured to drive the light modulator and the light modulator is monolithically integrated with the transistor on the substrate.
