摘要: Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to review traditional hermeticity test methods when applied typical micro‐electro‐mechanical systems (MEMS) cavity volumes and propose potential solutions.Design/methodology/approach Standards for testing have been MEMS the resulting issues range sensitivity discussed. In situ structures designed fabricated with access internal cavities allow characterisation as a function pressure.Findings ultra low leak rates necessary guarantee cannot be measured using methods. Optical are possible although in currently provide greatest sensitivity. A portfolio techniques required accurate MEMS.Research limitations/implications This provides starting point further investigation into several testing.Original...
