1) Hermetic sealing:-
 Hermetic sealing is achieve with TiCuSil Foil with bottom sealing schema with
impervious substrate ( metal plate )
 With porous substrate trials satisfactory completed optimized parameter
achieved
 After stabilizing cell architecture final schema will be implement with optimized
process parameter

Thermal stability:- Thermal cycling (24˚c -800˚c ) of joint is tested 10 Number cycle is
tested
observation :- Joint is stable after thermal cycling
