Abstract
A monolithic pressure and/or temperature transducer comprises at least two sensitive semiconductor layers of III-V material sensitive to pressure and to temperature and supported by a common substrate of III-V material, which two layers comprise: a first layer doped with donor type impurities at a first concentration and having a first resistivity as a function of pressure and of temperature; and a second layer doped with donor type impurities at a second concentration different from the first concentration and having a second resistivity as a function of pressure and of temperature, which second resistivity depends on temperature in a different manner than the first resistivity.
