    摘要: A microelectromechanical element is provided that includes a motion-limiting structure that prevents a main rotor body from coming into direct physical contact with a stator across a vertical rotor-stator gap. The motion-limiting structure includes a first stopper bump that is a protrusion on the stator that extends towards the rotor. The motion-limiting structure also includes a second stopper bump that is a protrusion on the rotor that extends from the main rotor body towards the stator.

    摘要: A method for producing damper structures on a micromechanical wafer. The method includes: (A) providing an edge adhesive film and a molding wafer, which includes a first side having a molding structure; (B) applying the edge adhesive film to the first side of the molding wafer at a low atmospheric pressure; (C) joining the edge adhesive film to the first side of the molding wafer by increasing the atmospheric pressure; (D) filling the molding structures with an adhesive; (E) curing the adhesive to form damper structures; (F) bonding the damper structures to a second side of a micromechanical wafer.

    摘要: Described herein are methods and systems useful in the fabrication of ultrasound transducer devices. Fabrication of ultrasound transducer devices can comprise manipulation of components having extremely small cross-sectional thicknesses, which can increase the risk of damage to the components. For example, inadvertent application of forces sufficient to damage such components is a significant risk during fabrication steps. As described herein, the risk of damage to an ultrasound transducer device component having a small cross-sectional thickness, such as an ultrasound microelectromechanical system (MEMS) wafer, can be reduced by partially or completely coating or filling all or a portion of the component with a stabilizing material, for example, prior to subjecting the component to forces associated with manipulation of the component during the fabrication process.

    摘要: A micromechanical arm array is provided. The micromechanical arm array comprises: a plurality of micromechanical arms spaced from each other in a first horizontal direction and extending in a second horizontal direction, wherein each micromechanical arm comprises a protrusion at a top of each micromechanical arm and protruding upwardly in a vertical direction; a plurality of protection films, each protection film encapsulating one of the plurality of micromechanical arms; and a metal connection structure extending in the first horizontal direction. The metal connection structure comprises: a plurality of joint portions, each joint portion corresponding to and surrounding the protrusion of one of the plurality of micromechanical arms; and a plurality of connection portions extending in the first horizontal direction and connecting two neighboring joint portions.
