Jul 2, 2024 · ICs, such as microprocessors and memory chips, are mounted onto glass substrates using flip-chip or wire bonding techniques, with the glass substrate providing mechanical support and electrical connectivity for the ICs.

Mar 10, 2023 · Micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) combine mechanical and electrical capabilities into a single glass wafer. Nearly every industry has found a way to integrate these tiny devices into their production lines, including the automotive, semiconductor, medical, communications, and consumer electronics industries.

Apr 17, 2018 · MEMS fabrication that is based on the silicon-on-glass (SOG) process requires many steps, including patterning, anodic bonding, deep reactive ion etching (DRIE), and chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). The effects of the process parameters of CMP and DRIE are investigated in this study.

RF MEMS technology is a promising approach to addressing RF Switches, which are key building blocks into Radio Frequency Front Ends (RFFE). In this paper, we show the usage of glass based packaging solutions and TGVs to offer low form factor, broadband RF MEMS switches. Glass interposer, through glass via (TGV), RF MEMS, glass substrates, RFFE.

The silicon on glass (SOG) module has been developed to integrate CMOS and high-aspect ratio MEMS sensors and actuators. This is accomplished by forming recesses on a glass wafer, anodically bonding a silicon wafer to that glass wafer, and using deep reactive ion etching to etch MEMS devices through the backside of the silicon wafer over the ...
