Abstract
A method for forming a microelectromechanical device is shown. The method comprises forming a cavity in a semiconductor substrate material, wherein the semiconductor substrate material comprises an opening for providing access to the cavity through a main surface area of the semiconductor substrate material. In a further step, the method comprises forming a support structure having a support structure material different from the semiconductor substrate material to close the opening at least partially by mechanically connecting the main surface area of the semiconductor substrate material with the bottom of the cavity. Furthermore, the method comprises a step of forming a lamella structure in the main surface area above the cavity such that the lamella structure is held spaced apart from the bottom of the cavity by the support structure.
