Abstract

See full text

A method for reducing occurrences of loose gettering material particles within micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) devices is described. The MEMS devices include a micro-machine within a substantially sealed cavity formed by a housing and a cover for the housing. The cavity containing a getter mounted on a getter substrate which is to be attached to the cover. The method includes providing an area between a portion of the cover and a portion of the getter substrate, positioning the getter within the area, and attaching the getter substrate to the cover.
