Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, a method for producing a buried cavity structure includes providing a mono-crystalline semiconductor substrate, producing a doped volume region in the mono-crystalline semiconductor substrate, wherein the doped volume region has an increased etching rate for a first etchant by comparison with an adjoining, undoped or more lightly doped material of the monocrystalline semiconductor substrate, forming an access opening to the doped volume region, and removing the doped semiconductor material in the doped volume region using the first etchant through the access opening to obtain the buried cavity structure.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to xMR sensors having very high shape anisotropy. Embodiments also relate to novel structuring processes of xMR stacks to achieve very high shape anisotropies without chemically affecting the performance relevant magnetic field sensitive layer system while also providing comparatively uniform structure widths over a wafer, down to about 100 nm in embodiments. Embodiments can also provide xMR stacks having side walls of the performance relevant free layer system that are smooth and/or of a defined lateral geometry which is important for achieving a homogeneous magnetic behavior over the wafer.

Abstract: A device for an image sensor is provided. The device includes a semiconductor device having a photo-sensitive region and a metallization stack for electrically contacting the photo-sensitive region. The photo-sensitive region is configured to generate an electric signal based on incident light. Further, the device includes an optical stack formed on a surface of the semiconductor device and configured to guide the incident light towards the photo-sensitive region. The optical stack includes a plurality of regions stacked on top of each other. The plurality of regions includes a filter region configured to selectively transmit the incident light only in a target wavelength range.
