Abstract
An optical electronics device includes first, second and third wafers. The first wafer has a semiconductor substrate with a dielectric layer on a side of the semiconductor substrate. The second wafer has a transparent substrate with an anti-reflective coating on a side of the transparent substrate. The first wafer is bonded to the second wafer at a silicon dioxide layer between the semiconductor substrate and the anti-reflective coating. The first and second wafers include a cavity extending from the dielectric layer through the semiconductor substrate and through the silicon dioxide layer to the anti-reflective coating. The third wafer includes micromechanical elements. The third wafer is bonded to the dielectric layer, and the micromechanical elements are contained within the cavity.
