Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a microelectromechanical device and a method of fabricating the microelectromechanical device. SOLUTION: Methods of fabricating an electrostatic interferometric modulation display devices and a device fabricated by the method are disclosed. In one embodiment, the electrostatic interferometric modulation display devices are fabricated by laminating a front substrate and a backplate, each of which has components performed thereon. At least one of the front substrate and the back plate has a cavity having a depth selected for interferometric modulation. Features are formed by deposition and patterning, by embossing, or by patterning and etching. The methods not only reduce the manufacturing costs, but also provide a higher yield.
