Abstract
A piezoelectric optical micro-electro-mechanical systems (POMEMS) device includes a glass layer having a bottom surface and a top surface. The device may also include an upper moisture barrier layer having a top surface and a bottom surface in which the bottom surface of the top moisture barrier layer is substantially coextensive with and interfaces with the top surface of the glass layer. A piezo stack may be attached above the upper moisture barrier layer. The device may also include a lower moisture barrier layer having a bottom surface and a top surface. The top surface of the lower moisture barrier layer is substantially coextensive with and interfaces with the bottom surface of the glass layer. A semiconductor substrate may be attached below the bottom moisture barrier layer.
