    Abstract: This invention discloses and claims a cost-effective, wafer-level package process for microelectromechanical devices (MEMS). Specifically, the movable part of MEMS device is encapsulated and protected while in wafer form so that commodity, lead-frame packaging can be used. An overcoat polymer, such as, epoxycyclohexyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (EPOSS) has been used as a mask material to pattern the sacrificial polymer as well as overcoat the air-cavity. The resulting air-cavities are clean, debris-free, and robust. The cavities have substantial strength to withstand molding pressures during lead-frame packaging of the MEMS devices. A wide range of cavities from 20 μm×400 μm to 300 μm×400 μm have been fabricated and shown to be mechanically stable. These could potentially house MEMS devices over a wide range of sizes. The strength of the cavities has been investigated using nano-indentation and modeled using analytical and finite element techniques. Capacitive resonators packaged using this protocol have shown clean sensing electrodes and good functionality.

    Abstract: A process for making a latching zip-mode actuated mono wafer MEMS switch especially suited to capacitance coupled signal switching of microwave radio frequency signals is disclosed. The single wafer fabrication process used for the switch employs sacrificial layers and liquid removal of these layers in order to also provide needed permanent physical protection for an ultra fragile switch moving arm member. Latched operation of the achieved MEMS switch without use of conventional holding electrodes or magnetic fields is also achieved. Fabrication of a single MEMS switch is disclosed however large or small arrays may be achieved. A liquid removal based fabrication process is disclosed.

    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a three-dimensional structure includes forming a first structure having a relief pattern on a substrate, forming a sacrifice layer on the first structure such that the sacrifice layer can be filled in a concave part of the first structure and the sacrifice layer can cover a surface of a convex part of the first structure on a side opposite to the substrate, forming a second structure having a relief pattern on the sacrifice layer, and a fourth step of removing the sacrifice layer from between the first structure and the second structure, and thereby bringing the second structure into contact with the surface of the first structure.
