摘要: In MEMS industry there is a high demand for reliable hermetic wafer-level encapsulation. This paper presents methodology to monitor the pressure inside package after bonding process. Therefore, novel micro-electro-mechanical resonators designed as double ended tuning forks (DETFs) were built measure quality factor Q function of cavity pressure. Obtained experimental results clearly verified feasibility developed structures, providing simple method evaluate hermeticity wafer technologies.
