Abstract:
1. A method of fabricating a micromirror-array device, comprising: forming a plurality of reflective and deflectable mirror plates on a light transmissive substrate, comprising: providing a semiconductor substrate having formed thereon a plurality of addressing electrode and circuitry; assembling the light transmissive substrate to the semiconductor substrate into a micromirror assembly such that the mirror plates are associated with the addressing electrodes; placing the micromirror assembly on a package substrate; cleaning the micromirror assembly; and applying an anti-stiction agent to a contacting surface in the micromirror assembly; disposing a lubricant material; dispensing a getter material; hermetically sealing the micromirror assembly within a space between the package substrate and a package lid that is transmissive to visible light so as to form a packaged device; baking the packaged device; and testing the quality of the packaged device.
