Abstract:
An electronic device and methods of manufacture thereof. One or more methods may include providing a lid wafer having a cavity and a surface surrounding the cavity and a device wafer having a detector device and a reference device. In certain examples, a solder barrier layer of titanium material may be deposited onto the surface of the lid wafer. The solder barrier layer of titanium material may further be activated to function as a getter. In various examples, the lid wafer and the device wafer may be bonded together using solder, and the solder barrier layer of titanium material may prevent the solder from contacting the surface of the lid wafer.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of fabricating an electronic device comprising:\n providing a first substrate having at least one cavity and a surface surrounding the at least one cavity; depositing at least one layer of barrier material on the surface of the first substrate; depositing a solder barrier layer of titanium material on a first portion of the at least one layer of barrier material; forming a first seal structure on a second portion of the at least one layer of barrier material to form a ring around a perimeter of the at least one cavity, wherein the solder barrier layer of titanium material does not extend into the first seal structure; activating the solder barrier layer of titanium material in a vacuum environment to function as a getter; providing a second substrate, the second substrate comprising at least one device attached thereto and a second seal structure, the second seal structure forming a ring around a perimeter of the at least one device; aligning the first seal structure to the second seal structure, such that the at least one cavity of the first substrate is positioned over the at least one device; and bonding the first substrate to the second substrate using solder.
