Abstract

A cavity is formed in a working surface of a substrate in which a semiconductor element is formed. A glass piece formed from a glass material is bonded to the substrate, and the cavity is filled with the glass material. For example, a pre-patterned glass piece is used which includes a protrusion fitting into the cavity. Cavities with widths of more than 10 micrometers are filled fast and reliably. The cavities may have inclined sidewalls.
