Circuit boards () and methods for fabricating circuit boards that include conduits () are provided. The conduits formed by patterning a metal layer () are lined by inert coating () and caped by a photodefinable polymer layer () that is affixed to the inert coating by with the help of an initially uncured polymer layer (). Holes are formed by patterning the photodefinable polymer layer for admitting and removing fluid from the conduit.

Conduits integrated in circuit board and method of manufacture

A mesoscale micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) structure comprises an optical interface member () that moves with a pivoting member (). Such movement serves to occlude and/or to complete an optical signal pathway ().

Optical path method and apparatus

A meso-scale MEMS device having a cantilevered beam is formed using standard printed wiring board and high density interconnect technologies and practices. The beam includes at least some polymer material to constitute its length, and in some embodiments also comprises a conductive material as a load-bearing component thereof. In varying embodiments, the beam is attached at a location proximal to an end thereof, or distal to an end thereof.

Micro electro-mechanical system method

A structure for an optical switch includes a reflective layer formed over a high quality epitaxial layer of piezoelectric compound semiconductor materials grown over a monocrystalline substrate, such as a silicon wafer. The piezoelectric layer can be activated to alter the path of light incident on the reflective layer. A compliant substrate is provided for growing the monocrystalline compound semiconductor layer. An accommodating buffer layer comprises a layer of monocrystalline oxide spaced apart from a silicon wafer by an amorphous interface layer of silicon oxide. The amorphous interface layer dissipates strain and permits the growth of a high quality monocrystalline oxide accommodating buffer layer. The accommodating buffer layer is lattice matched to both the underlying silicon wafer and the overlying piezoelectric monocrystalline material layer.

Structure and method of fabrication for an optical switch

A semiconductor structure for implementing optical beam switching includes a monocrystalline silicon substrate and an amorphous oxide material overlying the monocrystalline silicon substrate. A monocrystalline perovskite oxide material overlies the amorphous oxide material and a monocrystalline compound semiconductor material overlies the monocrystalline perovskite oxide material. An optical source component that is operable to transmit radiant energy is formed within the monocrystalline compound semiconductor layer. A diffraction grating including an electrochromic portion is optically coupled to the optical source component.
