Abstract
We demonstrate the first wafer-level hermetic vacuum packaging of Si photonic MEMS with optical and electrical feedthroughs. Si photonic MEMS is emerging as a unique technology for large-scale reconfigurable photonics. Hermetic vacuum packaging is critical to the performance and longevity, and to protect from contamination. However, there are no existing wafer-level packaging methods that
provide hermetic vacuum packaging with optical and electrical feedthroughs for Si photonic MEMS. The packaging method consists of sealing the photonic devices with 25 µm-thin Si caps. We illustrate the effectiveness of our solution by packaging wafers produced in the iSiPP50G Si photonics platform of IMEC. Related Research Topics
