Abstract

An acoustic sensor (e.g., for use in a piezoelectric MEMS microphone) includes a substrate and a cantilever beam attached to the substrate. The cantilever beam has a proximal portion attached to the substrate and a distal portion that extends from the proximal portion to a free end of the beam, the beam extending in a first direction between the proximal portion and the free end, the distal portion of the beam having a corrugated section including one or more grooves that extend generally in the first direction. The corrugated section inhibits bending of the corrugated section along the length of the distal portion when the acoustic sensor is subjected to sound pressure. An electrode is disposed on or in the proximal portion of the beam.
