Method of making a getter structure

摘要

A method of manufacturing a getter structure, including forming a support structure having a support perimeter, where the support structure is disposed over a substrate. In addition, the method includes forming a non-evaporable getter layer having an exposed surface area, where the non-evaporable getter layer is disposed over the support structure, and includes forming a vacuum gap between the substrate and the non-evaporable getter layer. The non-evaporable getter layer extends beyond the support perimeter of the support structure increasing the exposed surface area.
