Latest Patents
Nicole Brach holds a patent for a reflective semiconductor device with mirror elements having two oxide layers over an aluminum layer. This invention includes an integrated circuit (IC) structure and a pair of mirror elements positioned over the IC structure, separated by a trench. Each mirror element consists of a mirror layer, typically made of aluminum, on the IC structure, with a low-temperature oxide (LTO) layer on top of the mirror layer. A high-temperature oxide (HTO) layer covers the pair of mirror elements and fills the trench. Additionally, a liquid crystal layer is placed over the mirror elements, resulting in a liquid crystal on semiconductor (LCOS) device. The two-oxide layer effectively prevents mirror layer creep and/or agglomeration during the formation of the HTO layer, providing a suitable surface for LCOS assembly without the need for specialized alloys.
