A method of fabricating a mixed microtechnology structure includes providing a provisional substrate including a sacrificial layer on which is formed a mixed layer including at least first patterns of a first material and second patterns of a second material different from the first material, where the first and second patterns reside adjacent the sacrificial layer. The sacrificial layer is removed exposing a mixed surface of the mixed layer, the mixed surface including portions of the first patterns and portions of the second patterns. A continuous is formed covering layer of a third material on the mixed surface by direct bonding.
