Abstract
A liquid crystal over silicon light modulator may include a trenched cover glass. The trenched cover glass enables the provision of regions between adjacent dice on the wafer level. These regions facilitate sealing of the individual modulators and dicing of the individual modulators from the overall wafer. In some embodiments this may reduce contamination of the liquid crystal with the sealing material and losses at the dicing stage.
