Abstract
A MEMS microphone includes a substrate. A dielectric layer is disposed on the substrate, having an opening and includes: indent region surrounding the opening; pillars extending from an indent surface at the indent region to the substrate; and an outer part surrounding the indent region and disposed on the substrate. A signal sensing space is created at the indent region between the pillars and between the pillars and the outer part. A first electrode layer is disposed on the indent surface of the dielectric layer. A second electrode layer is disposed on the substrate. A sensing diaphragm is held by the dielectric layer, including two elastic diaphragms supported by the dielectric layer; and a conductive plate between the first elastic diaphragm and the second elastic diaphragm. The conductive plate has a central part embedded in the holding structure and a peripheral part extending into the signal sensing space.
