摘要： A projection system, a spatial light modulator, and a method for forming a MEMS device are disclosed. The spatial light modulator can have two substrates bonded together with one of the substrates comprising a micro-mirror array. The two substrates can be bonded at the wafer level after depositing a getter material and/or solid or liquid lubricant on one or both of the wafers if desired. In one embodiment of the invention, one of the substrates is a light transmissive substrate and a light blocking layer that is preferably a light absorbing layer is provided on the light transmissive substrate to selectively block light from passing through the substrate. The light blocking layer can be formed as a pattern, such as a grid or strips for blocking light from entering gaps between adjacent micro-mirrors.

摘要： Processes are disclosed for forming integrated circuit devices where multilayered structures are formed having between layers a removable silicon material. The layers adjacent the removable silicon can be either conducting or insulating or both. After forming one or more layers with the removable silicon therebetween, the silicon is removed so as to provide for an air-gap dielectric. In one embodiment, adjacent layers are copper. Between the copper and removable silicon can be a barrier layer, such as a transition metal-silicon-nitride layer. In a preferred embodiment, the removable silicon is removed with a gas phase interhalogen or noble gas halide.

摘要： A method for forming a MEMS device is disclosed, where a final release step is performed just prior to a wafer bonding step to protect the MEMS device from contamination, physical contact, or other deleterious external events. Without additional changes to the MEMS structure between release and wafer bonding and singulation, except for an optional stiction treatment, the MEMS device is best protected and overall process flow is improved. The method is applicable to the production of any MEMS device and is particularly beneficial in the making of fragile micromirrors.

摘要： A projection system is disclosed that has a light source of multiple wavelengths, a spatial light modulator and projection optics for projecting an image to be viewed by a viewer or to be displayed on a target. Also provided are one or more color sequencing devices which filter the light multiple times. Whether a single or plural color sequencing elements are provided, a single light beam passes at least twice through a sequence of light filters. In one embodiment, two color wheels provide the ability to filter the light multiple times. By changing the physical position or phase of one series of filters relative to another, the brightness and color saturation of the image projected through the projection optics can be changed. The changes in brightness and color saturation can be performed manually by mechanically changing the phase (or position) of the color sequencing device(s) relative to the light beam. Such changes can be performed step-wise of gradually through a continuum of brightness vs. color saturation points.
