摘要:
An acceleration sensor has an oscillating structure which is movably suspended on a substrate and can be deflected by an acting acceleration. The acceleration sensor also has an analyzing arrangement detecting a deflection of the oscillating structure due to the acceleration. The oscillating structure and/or the analyzing arrangement are connected to the substrate by mechanical decoupling devices.

A method for fabricating a micromechanical component, in particular a surface-micromechanical acceleration sensor, involves preparing a substrate and providing an insulation layer on the substrate, in which a patterned circuit trace layer is buried. A conductive layer, including a first region and a second region, is provided on the insulation layer, and a movable element is configured in the first region by forming a first plurality of trenches and by using an etching agent to remove at least one portion of the insulation layer from underneath the conductive layer. A contact element is formed and electrically connected to the circuit trace layer in the second region by configuring a second plurality of trenches, and the resultant movable element is encapsulated in the first region. The second plurality of trenches for forming the contact element in the second region is first formed after the encapsulation of the movable element formed in the first region.

A method of anisotropic plasma etching of silicon to provide laterally defined recess structures therein through an etching mask employing a plasma, the method including anisotropic plasma etching in an etching step a surface of the silicon by contact with a reactive etching gas to removed material from the surface of the silicon and provide exposed surfaces; polymerizing in a polymerizing step at least one polymer former contained in the plasma onto the surface of the silicon during which the surfaces that were exposed in a preceding etching step are covered by a polymer layer thereby forming a temporary etching stop; and alternatingly repeating the etching step and the polymerizing step. The method provides a high mask selectivity simultaneous with a very high anisotropy of the etched structures.

A manufacturing method for a porous microneedle array includes: forming a plurality of porous microneedle arrays, each having at least one microneedle and a porous carrier zone lying beneath it on the face of a semiconductor substrate; forming an interlayer between a non-porous residual layer of the semiconductor substrate located on the back side of the semiconductor substrate and the carrier zone, which has greater porosity than the carrier zone; detaching the residual layer from the carrier zone by breaking up the interlayer; and separating the microneedle arrays into corresponding chips.

Substrate-side overload protection for the diaphragm structure of a microphone component having a micromechanical microphone structure which impairs the damping properties of the microphone structure as little as possible, in which the microphone structure includes a diaphragm structure having at least one acoustically active diaphragm which is formed in a diaphragm layer above a semiconductor substrate. The diaphragm structure spans at least one sound opening in the rear side of the substrate. A stationary, acoustically permeable counter element is formed in the layer structure of the component above the diaphragm layer. According to the invention, at least projections are formed at the outer edge area of the diaphragm structure which protrude beyond the edge area of the sound opening, so that the edge area of the sound opening acts as a substrate-side stop for the diaphragm structure.
摘要:
A method for detecting the state of a vehicle tire and/or a roadway, in which at least one sensor, in particular an acceleration sensor, disposed in the tire interior generates a signal that is assigned to physical variables of the vehicle tire and/or the roadway. A tire state and/or characteristics of the roadway are/is determined on the basis of the signal.
