Abstract
A method for fabricating an MEMS device includes providing a first substrate with a central region and a peripheral region, and forming a plurality of first openings in the peripheral region and a plurality of third openings in the central region by etching the first substrate from a front side. The depth of the first openings is larger than the depth of the third openings. The method further includes forming a photosensitive layer on the surfaces of the first openings and the third openings, bonding a second substrate to the front side of the first substrate, and forming a trench by etching the first substrate from a back side using a patterned mask layer as an etch mask. The trench has a concave bottom surface and exposes a portion of the photosensitive layer formed on the bottom surfaces of the first openings and the third openings.
