Abstract

See full text

Described herein are methods and systems useful in the fabrication of ultrasound transducer devices. Fabrication of ultrasound transducer devices can comprise manipulation of components having extremely small cross-sectional thicknesses, which can increase the risk of damage to the components. For example, inadvertent application of forces sufficient to damage such components is a significant risk during fabrication steps. As described herein, the risk of damage to an ultrasound transducer device component having a small cross-sectional thickness, such as an ultrasound microelectromechanical system (MEMS) wafer, can be reduced by partially or completely coating or filling all or a portion of the component with a stabilizing material, for example, prior to subjecting the component to forces associated with manipulation of the component during the fabrication process.
