GETTER PRECURSORS FOR HERMETICALLY SEALED PACKAGING

摘要

Hermetically sealed packages include a getter precursor disposed within an interior region of the package. The getter precursor includes a alkali or alkaline earth metal cation and a non-oxidizing anion, which is configured to thermally decompose to change an oxidation state of cation to zero. Also disclosed herein are processes for hermetically sealing a package by coating a solution of the getter precursor onto interior defining wall surface of the package.
