    Abstract: A microelectromechanical pressure sensor structure wherein the length of the diaphragm is at least three times the width of the diaphragm. The oblong diaphragm experiences a minimized difference between lateral bending of the wafer and of the diaphragm along the width of the diaphragm. In a perpendicular direction, the diaphragm is at least three times longer due to which it accurately aligns with the bending form of the wafer. Due to this, the total error caused by bending of the structure is significantly reduced and a more robust structure is achieved. At the same time, the longer diaphragm provides mode deflected area for detection and thus significantly improves sensitivity of the device.

    Abstract: A microelectromechanical device having a first substrate (330) of semiconductor material and a second substrate (340) of semiconductor material having a bonding recess (331) delimited by projecting portions (334), monolithic therewith. The bonding recess forms a closed cavity (324) with the first substrate. A bonding structure (336) is arranged within the closed cavity and is bonded to the first and second substrates. A microelectromechanical structure (345) is formed in a substrate chosen between the first and second substrates. The device is manufactured by forming the bonding recess in a first wafer; depositing a bonding mass in the bonding recess, the bonding mass having a greater depth than the bonding recess; and bonding the two wafers.

    Abstract: Techniques are described herein that perform pressure sensing using pressure sensor(s) that include deformable pressure vessel(s). A pressure vessel is an object that has a cross section that defines a void. A deformable pressure vessel is a pressure vessel that has at least one curved portion that is configured to structurally deform (e.g., bend, shear, elongate, etc.) based on a pressure difference between a cavity pressure in a cavity in which at least a portion of the pressure vessel is suspended and a vessel pressure in the pressure vessel.
