Patent ID: 8018017

Claim:
A thermo-mechanical cleavable structure, comprising: a first thermo-mechanical stressor; a thermal element formed below the first thermo-mechanical stressor configured to generate heat thereby causing a delamination of the first thermo-mechanical stressor from an adjacent layer; a first electrical insulator layer formed below the thermal element opposite the first thermo-mechanical stressor; a second thermo-mechanical stressor formed below the first electrical insulator layer opposite the first thermo-mechanical stressor and the thermal element, wherein the first thermo-mechanical stressor is bounded between a first metal contact and a second metal contact; and a second electrical insulator layer formed below the second thermo-mechanical stressor opposite the first thermo-mechanical stressor, the thermal element, and the first electrical insulator, wherein the first thermo-mechanical stressor is sandwiched between the first metal contact and the second metal contact, and wherein the first metal contact is attached at a first end portion of the thermal element and the second metal contact is attached at a second end portion of the thermal element.
