    摘要: A method for manufacturing a micromechanical component is described, including the steps of: forming a first etch stop layer on a base substrate, the first etch stop layer being formed in such a way that it has a first pattern of through-cutouts; forming a first electrode-material layer on the first etch stop layer; forming a second etch stop layer on the first electrode-material layer, the second etch stop layer being formed in such a way that it has a second pattern of through-cutouts differing from the first pattern; forming a second electrode-material layer on the second etch stop layer; forming a patterned mask on the second electrode-material layer; and carrying out a first etching step in a first direction and a second etching step in a second direction counter to the first direction in order to etch at least one first electrode unit out of the first electrode-material layer and to etch at least one second electrode unit out of the second electrode-material layer. Also described are micromechanical components.

    摘要: In a micromechanical sensor and/or a method for manufacturing a micromechanical sensor for detecting a state variable of a substance, the sensor includes at least one heating element, one temperature measuring element and optionally an inlet opening into and/or an outlet opening out of the cavity for this purpose. The sensor includes a cavity configured to at least partially receive the substance through one of the inlet openings and discharge it again at least partially through one of the outlets or outlet openings. The at least one state variable of the substance is detected here as a function of at least one variable representing the operation of the at least one heating element and/or the operation of the at least one temperature element.

    摘要: A method for producing a micromechanical component, preferably for fluidic applications having cavities. The component is constructed from two functional layers, the two functional layers being patterned differently using micromechanical methods. A first etch stop layer having a first pattern is applied to a base plate. A first functional layer is applied to the first etch stop layer and to the first contact surfaces of the base plate. A second etch stop layer, having a second pattern, is applied to first functional layer. A second functional layer is applied to the second etch stop layer and to the second contact surfaces of the first functional layer. An etching mask is applied to the second functional layer. The second and the first functional layer are patterned as sacrificial layers by the use of the first and the second etch stop layer by etching methods and/or by using the first and the second etch stop layer. By supplementing patterning of the base plate, additional movable fluidic elements may be implemented, using the method. The method is preferably used for producing a micropump having an epitactic polysilicon layer as the pump diaphragm.

    摘要: A micromechanical sensor element and a method for the production of a micromechanical sensor element that is suitable, for example in a micromechanical component, for detecting a physical quantity. Provision is made for the sensor element to include a substrate, an access hole and a buried cavity, at least one of the access holes and the cavity being produced in the substrate by a trench etching and/or, in particular, an isotropic etching process. The trench etching process includes different trenching (trench etching) steps which may be divided into a first phase and a second phase. Thus, in the first phase, at least one first trenching step is carried out in which, in a predeterminable first time period, material is etched out of the substrate and a depression is produced. In that trenching step, a typical concavity is produced in the wall of the depression. A passivation process is then carried out in that first phase, in which the concavity produced in the walls of the depression by the first trenching step is covered with a passivation material. The first trenching step and the first passivation process may be carried out repeatedly in alternating succession within the first phase, with the result that a typical corrugation is obtained on the walls of the depression so produced. In the second phase of the trench etching process, the cavity is produced through the at least one access hole produced by the depression, by carrying out a second trenching step of a predetermined second time period that is distinctly longer in comparison with the first time period.
