Abstract:
1. A hermetically sealed device comprising: a device layer comprising one or more Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) devices, the device layer having a first surface and a second surface, the MEMs devices having a first electrical lead and a second electrical lead; a first wafer includes borosilicate glass, the first wafer having a first surface and a second surface and a silicon in extending from the first surface to the second surface, wherein the first surface of the first wafer is bonded to the first surface of the device layer such that the silicon pin of the first wafer is in electrical communication with the first electrical lead of at least one MEMS device; and a second wafer having a first surface and a second surface and a silicon pin extending from the first surface to the second surface, wherein the first surface of the second wafer is bonded to the second surface of the device layer such that the silicon pin of the second wafer is in electrical communication with the second electrical lead of at least one MEMS device.
