  • the conductors are provided through the use of doped buried crossings in a single crystal silicon substrate, thereby also allowing production of different kinds of integrated silicon devices, e.g. sensors.
  • Borosilicate glass plates are bonded onto a silicon (Si) wafer using so-called anodised bonding.
  • a plate of glass is arranged on a Si wafer under an amount of pressure.
  • the Si wafer and the glass are then heated up to some hundred degrees and a voltage is applied across the plates (glass and wafer) whereby the glass, which contains sodium (Na) ions migrate into the Si wafer, and a hermetic junction is obtained.
  • the object intended to be bonded to Si must contain Na-ions. usually through doping a glass with Soda lime glass.
  • borosilicate glass is that it matches the Si wafer characteristics, specially with respect to coefficient of expansion.
  • the electrical connection path is from one of an outside wire bonding area via a first contact diffusion down to a buried conductor which crosses below the sealing area of the cavity, and via a second contact diffusion to a second aluminium interconnection line which establishes connections to two piezo-resistors.
