Abstract

The disclosure relates to a microelectromechanical device where the device structure includes a rotating mass structure and a linear mass structure. The rotating mass structure is formed of two rotating mass parts elastically coupled to the support through one or more springs that enable rotary motion of each of the rotating mass parts about respective rotary axes that extend parallel to each other along a first in-plane direction (IP). The linear mass structure includes at least one elongate rigid body that extends in a second in-plane direction (IP). One end of the linear mass structure is coupled to the first rotating mass part and the other end of the linear mass structure is coupled to the second rotating mass part such that rotary motions of the first and second masses result into linear motion of the linear mass structure in the out-of-plane direction (OP).
