1. A crystalline substrate based device comprising:
- a crystalline substrate having formed thereon a microstructure;
at least one chip scale packaging layer which is formed over said microstructure;
a spacer element, disposed between said at least one chip scale packaging layer and said crystalline substrate, said crystalline substrate, said at least one chip scale packaging layer and said spacer element defining at least one gap between said crystalline substrate and said at least one chip scale packaging layer, said crystalline substrate, said microstructure and said at least one chip scale packaging layer forming a chip scale package having two major faces and a plurality of edge faces extending along the periphery of and between said major faces;
at least one opening in said spacer element along one of said plurality of edge faces of said chip scale package communicating with said at least one gap; and
at least one electrical contact formed on said chip scale package.
