Abstract:
A Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) structure with integrated heater is disclosed. The MEMS structure with integrated heater comprises a first substrate with cavities, bonded to a second substrate, forming a plurality of sealed enclosures of at least two types. Each of the plurality of sealed enclosures is defined by the first substrate, the second substrate, and a seal-ring material, where the first enclosure type further includes at least one of a gettering element to decrease cavity pressure in the first enclosure type or an outgassing element to increase cavity pressure in the first enclosure type when activated. The first enclosure type further comprises at least one heater integrated into the first substrate adjacent to the gettering element or the outgassing element to adjust the temperature of the gettering element or the outgassing element thereby providing heating to the gettering element or the outgassing element.
