A sensor with a chamber comprises a base, a cavity body, a sensing element, and a porous gel material. The cavity body is disposed on the base and has a cavity wall and an inner space formed inside the cavity wall, the sensing element is disposed on the cavity wall, and the porous gel material is disposed between the base and the cavity body, the porous gel material has a porosity of not less than 80%, so that gas is capable of communicating between the inner space of the cavity body and an outside, thereby forming a passage for gas to enter and exit to balance a pressure in the sensor with the chamber, increase a support of the sensor with the chamber, and reduce the risk of conventional bonding between the sensing element and the base using die-bonding adhesive.

The present disclosure relates to a reconstituted wafer- and/or panel-level package comprising a glass substrate having a plurality of cavities. Each cavity is configured to hold a single IC chip. The reconstituted wafer- and/or panel-level package can be used in a fan-out wafer or panel level packaging process. The glass substrate can include at least two layers having different photosensitivities with one layer being sufficiently photosensitive to be capable of being photomachined to form the cavities.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards a method for forming a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) structure including an epitaxial layer overlying a MEMS substrate. The method includes bonding a MEMS substrate to a carrier substrate. The epitaxial layer is formed over the MEMS substrate, where the epitaxial layer has a higher doping concentration than the MEMS substrate. A plurality of contacts is formed over the epitaxial layer.

A method for producing a cavity in a substrate composed of hard brittle material is provided. A laser beam of an ultrashort pulse laser is directed a side surface of the substrate and is concentrated by a focusing optical unit to form an elongated focus in the substrate. Incident energy of the laser beam produces a filament-shaped flaw in a volume of the substrate. The filament-shaped flaw extends into the volume to a predetermined depth and does not pass through the substrate. To produce the filament-shaped flaw, the ultrashort pulse laser radiates in a pulse or a pulse packet having at least two successive laser pulses. After at least two filament-shaped flaws are introduced, the substrate is exposed to an etching medium which removes material of the substrate and widens the at least two filament-shaped flaws to form filaments. At least two filaments are connected to form a cavity.

A MEMS device includes a semiconductor support body having a first cavity, a membrane including a peripheral portion, fixed to the support body, and a suspended portion. A first deformable structure is at a distance from a central part of the suspended portion of the membrane and a second deformable structure is laterally offset relative to the first deformable structure towards the peripheral portion of the membrane. A projecting region is fixed under the membrane. The second deformable structure is deformable so as to translate the central part of the suspended portion of the membrane along a first direction, and the first deformable structure is deformable so as to translate the central part of the suspended portion of the membrane along a second direction.

Examples include a device comprising integrated circuit dies molded into a molded panel. The molded panel has three-dimensional features formed therein, where the three-dimensional features are associated with the integrated circuit dies. To form the three-dimensional features, a feature formation material is deposited, the molded panel is formed, and the feature formation material is removed.

A production method for a micromechanical component for a sensor device or microphone device. The method includes: forming a supporting structure composed of a first sacrificial material on a substrate surface of a substrate with a first sacrificial material layer, a plurality of etching holes structured through the first sacrificial material layer, and a plurality of supporting posts projecting into the substrate; etching into the substrate surface at least one cavity spanned by the supporting structure; forming a diaphragm composed of at least one semiconductor material on or over the first sacrificial material layer of the supporting structure; depositing a layer stack comprising at least one sacrificial layer and at least one counter electrode; and exposing the diaphragm by at least partially removing at least the supporting structure and the at least one sacrificial layer.

Disclosed herein is a MEMS sensor package that includes a substrate, an annular-shaped first dry film pattern stuck to one surface of the substrate, and a MEMS sensor chip including a tubular support and a detection part which is supported on the support so as to overlap a cavity of the support. The MEMS sensor chip is fixed to the substrate by sticking an annular mounting surface of the support to the first dry film pattern.

A membrane is formed through processes including depositing a first piezoelectrical layer, depositing a first electrode layer over the first piezoelectrical layer, patterning the first electrode layer to form a first electrode, depositing a second piezoelectrical layer over the first electrode, depositing a second electrode layer over the second piezoelectrical layer, patterning the second electrode layer to form a second electrode, and depositing a third piezoelectrical layer over the second electrode. The third piezoelectrical layer, the second piezoelectrical layer, and the first piezoelectrical layer are etched to form a through-hole. The through-hole is laterally spaced apart from the first electrode and the second electrode. A first contact plug and a second contact plug are then formed to electrically connect to the first electrode and the second electrode, respectively.

MEMS structure, comprising: a semiconductor body; a cavity buried in the semiconductor body; a membrane suspended on the cavity; and at least one antistiction bump completely contained in the cavity with the function of preventing the side of the membrane internal to the cavity from sticking to the opposite side, which delimits the cavity downwardly.
