A method for the manufacture of a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) device comprising bonded components which together define a chamber in the device, which method comprises forming a bonding material layer on a surface of a first component, patterning the bonding material layer and, optionally, the first component and bonding a second component to the patterned bonding material layer and first component. The forming of the bonding material layer comprises partially curing a curable material and the bonding of the second component to the patterned bonding material layer and the first component comprises fully curing the partially cured material.

Method for the manufacture of a MEMS device

An electrowetting display device includes a wall layer having a first part located on a first area of a surface of a hydrophobic layer and a second part located on a second area of the surface. The second area has a lower hydrophobicity than the first area.

Electrowetting display device with a wall on a lower hydrophobicity area

The present invention relates to a method of making an electrowetting display device having a plurality of picture elements, each picture element being defined by walls surrounding a display region, the plurality of picture elements covering a first area of a support plate. The method comprises the steps of: applying a hydrophobic layer covering at least the first area; lowering the hydrophobicity of the hydrophobic layer over a second area substantially outside the display regions; forming the walls on the hydrophobic layer over the first area. The present invention further relates to an electrowetting display device.
