A method for assembling a first substrate and a second substrate via metal adhesion layers, the method including: depositing, on a surface of each of the first and second substrates, a metal layer with a thickness controlled to limit surface roughness of each of the deposited metal layers to below a roughness threshold; exposing the metal layers deposited on the surface of the first and second substrates to air; directly adhering the first and second substrates by placing the deposited metal adhesion layers in contact, the surface roughness of the contacted layers being that obtained at an end of the depositing. The adhesion can be carried out in the air, at atmospheric pressure and at room temperature, without applying pressure to the assembly of the first and second substrates resulting from directly contacting the deposited metal adhesion layers.

Packaged RF front end systems including a hybrid filter and an active circuit in a single package are described. In an example, a package includes an active die comprising an acoustic wave resonator. A package substrate is electrically coupled to the active die. A seal frame surrounds the acoustic wave resonator and is attached to the active die and to the package substrate, the seal frame hermetically sealing the acoustic wave resonator in a cavity between the active die and the package substrate.
