    Abstract: A mass flow sensor is described. To improve the membrane stability of the known mass flow sensor, in particular the reoxide layer which is present in the known mass flow sensor is replaced by a thicker PECVD silicon oxide layer. The thickness of the silicon oxide layer deposited on the platinum layer is increased, and the known mass flow sensor is also provided with a cover layer of PECVD silicon nitride forming a moisture barrier.

    Abstract: A conductor path contacting arrangement for contacting a first conductor path, which is applied on a substrate and covered with a first insulating layer, via a contact hole in the first insulating layer to a second conductor path. The contact hole overlies a region above the first conductor and a region, adjacent thereto, above the substrate; and inside the contact hole the second conductor path is stepped down from the contact region having the first conductor path toward the substrate therebeneath. This allows better control of the contact hole junction resistance.

    Abstract: A component has at least one MEMS element and at least one cap made of a semiconductor material. The cap, in addition to its mechanical function as a terminus of a cavity and protection of the micromechanical structure, is provided with an electrical functionality. The micromechanical structure of the MEMS element of the component is situated in a cavity between a carrier and the cap, and includes at least one structural element which is deflectable out of the component plane within the cavity. The cap includes at least one section extending over the entire thickness of the cap, which is electrically insulated from the adjoining semiconductor material in such a way that it may be electrically contacted independently from the remaining sections of the cap.
