Devices are provided for the controlled exposure or release of contents
stored in hermetically sealed reservoirs. The devices comprise a primary
substrate having a front side and a back side, and including one or more
hermetic sealing materials; a plurality of reservoirs in the primary
substrate positioned between the front side and the back side; reservoir
contents, which comprise chemical molecules (such as drugs) or a
secondary device (such as a glucose sensor), located inside the
reservoirs; a hermetic sealing substrate having a surface composed of one
or more hermetic sealing materials; and a hermetic seal formed between
and joining the primary substrate and the hermetic sealing substrate,
wherein the hermetic seal independently seals the reservoirs.
