    Abstract: A sensor device includes a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) force sensor, and a capacitive acceleration sensor. In the method of manufacturing the sensor device, a sensor portion of the MEMS force sensor is prepared over a front surface of a first substrate. The sensor portion includes a piezo-resistive element and a front electrode. A bottom electrode and a first electrode are formed on a back surface of the first substrate. A second substrate having an electrode pad and a second electrode to the bottom of the first substrate are attached such that the bottom electrode is connected to the electrode pad and the first electrode faces the second electrode with a space therebetween.

    Abstract: A method for forming a micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS) device is provided. The method includes bonding a semiconductor substrate with a carrier substrate through a dielectric layer and patterning the semiconductor substrate into multiple elements. The method also includes partially removing the dielectric layer to release some of the elements such that the released elements become one (or more) first movable element and one (or more) second movable element. The method further includes bonding a cap substrate with the semiconductor substrate to form a first closed chamber containing the first movable element and a second closed chamber containing the second movable element. In addition, the method includes opening the second closed chamber and sealing the second closed chamber after vacuumizing the second closed chamber such that the second closed chamber has a reduced pressure smaller than that of the first closed chamber.

    Abstract: Embodiments of mechanisms for forming a micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS) device are provided. The MEMS device includes a CMOS substrate and a MEMS substrate bonded with the CMOS substrate. The CMOS substrate includes a semiconductor substrate, a first dielectric layer formed over the semiconductor substrate, and a plurality of conductive pads formed in the first dielectric layer. The MEMS substrate includes a semiconductor layer having a movable element and a second dielectric layer formed between the semiconductor layer and the CMOS substrate. The MEMS substrate also includes a closed chamber surrounding the movable element. The MEMS substrate further includes a blocking layer formed between the closed chamber and the first dielectric layer of the CMOS substrate. The blocking layer is configured to block gas, coming from the first dielectric layer, from entering the closed chamber.
