A micromechanical device and a method for producing this device are provided, the device having a sensor pattern that includes a spring pattern and a seismic mass. The seismic mass may be connected to the substrate material via the spring pattern, and a clearance may be provided in a direction perpendicular to the major substrate plane between the spring pattern and the substrate material. Alternatively, the spring pattern and the seismic mass may have a common, essentially continuous, front side surface.

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor structure is provided which includes the following operations: supplying a crystalline semiconductor substrate, providing a porous region adjacent to a surface of the semiconductor substrate, introducing a dopant into the porous region from the surface, and thermally recrystallizing the porous region into a crystalline doping region of the semiconductor substrate whose doping type and/or doping concentration and/or doping distribution are/is different from those or that of the semiconductor substrate. A corresponding semiconductor structure is likewise provided.
摘要:
Described is a method for manufacturing a micromechanical sensor element and a micromechanical sensor element manufactured in particular using such a method which has a hollow space or a cavity and a membrane for detecting a physical variable. Different method steps are performed for manufacturing the sensor element, among other things, a structured etch mask having a plurality of holes or apertures being applied on a semiconductor substrate. Moreover, an etch process is used to create depressions in the semiconductor substrate beneath the holes in the structured etch mask. Anodization of the semiconductor material is subsequently carried out, the anodization taking place preferably starting from the created depressions in the semiconductor substrate. Due to this process, porous areas are created beneath the depressions, a lattice-like structure made of untreated, i.e., non-anodized, substrate material remaining between the porous areas and the depressions. This lattice-like structure extends preferably from the surface of the semiconductor into the depth. The etch mask for creating the depressions may be removed, optionally prior to or subsequent to the anodization. A temperature treatment is carried out for creating the hollow space and the membrane in the semiconductor substrate which forms the sensor element. During this process, the hollow space is created from the at least one area that has been rendered porous beneath a depression and the membrane above the hollow space is created from the lattice-like structure by rearranging the semiconductor material.

摘要:
A manufacturing method for a micromechanical semiconductor element includes providing on a semiconductor substrate a patterned stabilizing element having at least one opening. The opening is arranged such that it allows access to a first region in the semiconductor substrate, the first region having a first doping. Furthermore, a selective removal of at least a portion of the semiconductor material having the first doping out of the first region of the semiconductor substrate is provided. In addition, a membrane is produced above the first region using a first epitaxy layer applied on the stabilizing element. In a further method step, at least a portion of the first region is used to produce a cavity underneath the stabilizing element. In this manner, the present invention provides for the production of the patterned stabilizing element by means of a second epitaxy layer, which is applied on the semiconductor substrate.
