Abstract

In one approach, a method of fabricating radiation detection devices includes: forming a structural layer overlying a frontside of a substrate; forming a metallic layer overlying the structural layer; releasing each of a plurality of devices on the substrate by etching a backside of the substrate, wherein each device comprises a plate and legs attached to the plate, the legs comprising at least a portion of the metallic layer; and sealing each of the plurality of devices, the sealing comprising: attaching a transparent cavity cap to the frontside of the substrate; and attaching a radiation-transparent substrate to the backside of the substrate.
