摘要： When forming a trench of a narrow width in a thick semiconductor layer, a trench can be formed without the occurrence of semiconductor residue. In this Specification, a semiconductor device in which a trench is formed in a semiconductor layer is disclosed. In the semiconductor layer of the semiconductor device, a compensation pattern which compensates for sudden changes in the width of the trench is formed at a place at which the width of the trench changes suddenly. In the semiconductor layer of the above-described semiconductor device, since a compensation pattern is formed at a place at which the trench width changes suddenly, in the case where forming the trench using a deep RIE method, the occurrence of steep inclined portions arising from semiconductor residue can be prevented. Consequently, when forming a trench of a narrow width in a thick semiconductor layer, the occurrence of semiconductor residue can be prevented.

摘要： The micro device includes a support substrate, and a movable structure configured to move with respect to the support substrate. At least one of the support substrate and the movable structure is provided with at least one protrusion protruding towards the other of the support substrate and the movable structure. Further, a base portion extending into the one of the support substrate and the movable structure is provided integrally with the at least one protrusion. With this configuration, the protrusion is securely held by the base portion, and the detachment of the protrusion can therefore be prevented even after repeated collisions between the support substrate and the movable structure via the protrusion.

摘要： An integrated device with high insulation tolerance is provided. A groove having an inclined side surface is provided between adjacent devices. When a side where an electronic circuit or MEMS device is mounted is a front surface, the groove becomes narrower from the front surface to a back surface because of the inclined surface. A mold material (insulating material) is disposed inside the groove, so that the plurality of devices are mechanically joined together, being electrically insulated from one another. A line member that establishes an electrical conduction between the adjacent devices is formed to lie along the side surface and the bottom surface of the groove. To lead the line out to the backside, the bottom surface of the groove has a hole, so that the line member is exposed to the backside from the hole.

摘要： A microphone that identifies the direction along which acoustic waves propagate with one diaphragm, and has superior durability is provided. The microphone includes a circular diaphragm supported at a center portion thereof. When the diaphragm receives acoustic waves, each position around the center thereof will vibrate with a phase depending upon the direction of the acoustic waves. First electrodes are arranged on one surface of the diaphragm and second electrodes are arranged facing corresponding first electrodes to form a first capacitor. Third electrodes are arranged on the other surface of the diaphragm and fourth electrodes are arranged facing corresponding third electrodes to form a second capacitor. A controller applies a voltage to the second capacitors so that the capacitance of the first capacitors will be constant and identifies the direction along which the acoustic waves propagate based on the difference in the voltages applied to each of the second capacitors.

摘要： In a semiconductor strain detector, the temperature characteristic of the output of a zero-point temperature compensating circuit is added to the zero-point temperature characteristic of the output of a bridge circuit composed of strain gauges, to perform a zero-point temperature compensation of the final output. Further, two kinds of diffusion resistors having different surface impurity densities are used in each amplifying circuit to perform a sensitivity-temperature compensation in which a temperature coefficient of sensitivity is considered up to the second-order term.

摘要： A capacitive device includes a substrate, a movable electrode, and a fixed electrode. The movable electrode is located above a surface of the substrate and is movable with respect to the substrate along directions that are substantially orthogonal to the surface. The fixed electrode is stationary with respect to the substrate. When the movable electrode is displaced in a first direction that is substantially orthogonal to the surface, the total sum of area-distance quotients in the overlap between the electrodes remains substantially unchanged or decreases to provide a first reduction rate that is substantially zero or more. On the other hand, when the movable electrode is displaced in a second direction that is substantially opposite to the first direction, the total sum of area-distance quotients remains substantially unchanged or decreases to provide a second reduction rate that is substantially zero or more. The reduction rates are different from each other.
