Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a MEMS sensor provided with a movable electrode part and a fixed electrode part, and the movable electrode part and the fixed electrode part are supported with an insulating layer interposed between a first substrate and a second substrate arranged at intervals in the height direction. . Background technique
[0002] MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems: Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) sensors form movable electrode parts and fixed electrode parts by microfabrication of a silicon (Si) substrate constituting an SOI (Silicon on Insulator: silicon on insulator) substrate. This fine sensor is used as an acceleration sensor, a pressure sensor, a vibrating gyroscope, or a micro relay by the operation of the movable electrode portion.
[0003] Such a MEMS sensor needs to seal the movable region of the movable electrode part so that the movable electrode part formed of a part of the silicon substrate can operate at a small...
