    Abstract: A compound sensor device includes a semiconductor substrate having an active electronic circuit formed in or on the semiconductor substrate. A sensor comprising a sensor substrate including a sensor circuit having an environmental sensor or actuator formed in or on the sensor substrate is micro-transfer printed onto the semiconductor substrate. One or more electrical conductors electrically connects the active electronic circuit to the sensor circuit. The semiconductor substrate comprises a first material and the sensor substrate comprises a second material different from the first material.

    Abstract: A method for producing a micromechanical component, and a micromechanical component, includes providing a substrate having first and second outer surfaces, the second surface facing away from the first surface; forming a through-hole through the substrate from the first outer surface up to the second outer surface; attaching an optical functional layer, on the second outer surface, to cover the through-hole; removing a first segment of the substrate on the first surface of the substrate so that there arises a third outer surface inclined relative to the second surface, the third surface facing away from the second surface, the inclined surface enclosing the through-hole; and separating the micromechanical component by separating a first part of the substrate, having the through-hole, and a second part, attached to the first part, of the optical functional layer from a remaining part of the substrate and a remaining part of the optical functional layer.

    Abstract: The disclosure provides methods and apparatus for release-assisted microcontact printing of MEMS. Specifically, the principles disclosed herein enable patterning diaphragms and conductive membranes on a substrate having articulations of desired shapes and sizes. Such diaphragms deflect under applied pressure or force (e.g., electrostatic, electromagnetic, acoustic, pneumatic, mechanical, etc.) generating a responsive signal. Alternatively, the diaphragm can be made to deflect in response to an external bias to measure the external bias/phenomenon. The disclosed principles enable transferring diaphragms and/or thin membranes without rupturing.

    Abstract: In an embodiment a method of fabricating a MEMS structure is provided. The method includes fabricating a working structure in a doped layer proximate a first surface of a silicon substrate. The first surface of the silicon substrate is bonded to a first planar glass structure having a first one or more sacrificial features embedded therein. The method also includes etching to remove a bulk of the silicon substrate, wherein the bulk is reverse of the first surface on the silicon substrate, wherein etching removes the bulk and leaves the working structure bonded to the first planar glass structure. The method also includes etching to remove the first one or more sacrificial features from the first planar glass structure.
