SEALED CAVITY STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SEALED CAVITY STRUCTURE
Provided is a sealed cavity structure, including a base; an upper cover fixed to the base in a covering manner and defining a cavity jointly with the base; a leak hole that passes through the upper cover and communicates the cavity with outside; a sealing cover plate attached and fixed to an outer surface of the upper cover and completely covering the leak hole to seal the leak hole; and a sealing cap including a cap wall pressed on a side of the sealing cover plate away from the leak hole and a cap sidewall extending from the cap wall toward a direction close to the upper cover and fixed, in an abutting manner, to the upper cover. A method for manufacturing a sealed cavity structure is further provided. In this technical solution, better sealing reliability can be achieved.
ROBUST MEMS MICROPHONE
A robust MEMS transducer includes a kinetic energy diverter disposed within its frontside cavity. The kinetic energy diverter blunts or diverts kinetic energy in a mass of air moving through the frontside cavity, before that kinetic energy reaches a diaphragm of the MEMS transducer. The kinetic energy diverter renders the MEMS transducer more robust and resistant to damage from such a moving mass of air.
SUPPORT PILLAR
The present invention disclosed a micro acoustic collector with a lateral cavity, comprising: a base metal layer; a movable film, an annular side wall; a lateral metal layer. The movable film faces towards the base metal layer to form a hollow space. The lateral metal layer is formed at a side of the movable film and around the movable film, fixed by the annular side wall and spaced apart from peripheral of the movable film by a distance, and the lateral metal layer faces towards the base metal layer to form a lateral cavity to assist an acoustic collection.
MEMS MICROPHONE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
A MEMS microphone includes a substrate having a cavity, a back plate disposed over the substrate and having a plurality of acoustic holes, a diaphragm disposed over the substrate to cover the cavity, the diaphragm being disposed under the back plate to be spaced apart from the back plate, including venting holes communicating with the cavity, and sensing an acoustic pressure to create a displacement, a first insulation layer interposed between the substrate and the diaphragm to support the diaphragm, and the first insulation layer including an opening formed at a position corresponding to the cavity to expose the diaphragm, a second insulating layer formed over the substrate to cover an upper face of the back plate and an insulating interlayer formed between the first insulation layer and the second insulation layer, and the insulation interlayer being located outside the diaphragm and supporting the second insulation layer to make the back plate be spaced from the diaphragm. Thus, a process of manufacturing the MEMS microphone may be simplified.
MEMS MICROPHONE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
A MEMS microphone includes a substrate having a cavity, a back plate disposed over the substrate and having a plurality of acoustic holes, a diaphragm disposed between the substrate and the back plate, and an anchor extending from a circumference of the diaphragm to be connected with an end portion of the diaphragm. The diaphragm is spaced apart from the substrate and the back plate to covers the cavity, and the diaphragm senses an acoustic pressure to generate a displacement. The anchor extends from a circumference of the diaphragm to be connected with an end portion of the diaphragm, and is connected with the substrate to support the diaphragm. Thus, the MEMS microphone can prevent a portion of an insulation layer located around the anchor from remaining and can prevent a buckling phenomenon of the diaphragm from occurring.
Micro-sensor body and method for manufacturing the same, as well as micro-sensor
The present disclosure relates to the field of sensor manufacturing technology, particularly discloses a method for manufacturing a micro-sensor body, comprising the steps of S1: applying a wet colloidal material on a substrate to form a colloidal layer, and covering a layer of one-dimensional nanowire film on the surface of the colloidal layer to form a sensor embryo; S2: drying the colloidal layer of the sensor embryo to an extent that the colloidal layer cracks into a plurality of colloidal islands, a portion of the one-dimensional nanowire film contracting into a contraction diaphragm adhered to the surface of the colloidal islands while the other portion of the one-dimensional nanowire film being stretched into a connection structure connected between the adjacent contraction diaphragms. By the method for manufacturing a micro-sensor body of the present disclosure, the contraction diaphragms and connection structures formed by stretching the one-dimensional nanowire film are connected stably, which enhances the stability of the sensor devices; and the cracking manner renders it easy to obtain a large-scale of sensor bodies with connection structure arrays in stable suspension.
