    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a monolithic MEMS (micro-electromechanical system) platform having a temperature sensor, a pressure sensor and a gas sensor, and an associated method of formation. In some embodiments, the MEMS platform includes a semiconductor substrate having one or more transistor devices and a temperature sensor. A dielectric layer is disposed over the semiconductor substrate. A cavity is disposed within an upper surface of the dielectric layer. A MEMS substrate is arranged onto the upper surface of the dielectric layer and has a first section and a second section. A pressure sensor has a first pressure sensor electrode that is vertically separated by the cavity from a second pressure sensor electrode within the first section of a MEMS substrate. A gas sensor has a polymer disposed between a first gas sensor electrode within the second section of a MEMS substrate and a second gas sensor electrode.

    Abstract: Some embodiments relate to multiple MEMS devices that are integrated together on a single substrate. A device substrate comprising first and second micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS) devices is bonded to a capping structure. The capping structure comprises a first cavity arranged over the first MEMS device and a second cavity arranged over the second MEMS device. The first cavity is filled with a first gas at a first gas pressure. The second cavity is filled with a second gas at a second gas pressure, which is different from the first gas pressure. A recess is arranged within a lower surface of the capping structure. The recess abuts the second cavity. A vent is arranged within the capping structure. The vent extends from a top of the recess to the upper surface of the capping structure. A lid is arranged within the vent and configured to seal the second cavity.
