Abstract
A capacitive shear force sensor and a method for fabricating thereof are provided. The capacitive shear force sensor includes a first electric field shielding layer, a second electric field shielding layer, a driving electrode, a first sensing electrode, a second sensing electrode and a dielectric layer. The second electric field shielding layer is disposed under the first electric field shielding layer. The driving electrode is disposed between the first electric field shielding layer and the second electric field shielding layer. The first and the second sensing electrodes are disposed between the driving electrode and the second electric field shielding layer. The dielectric layer is disposed between the driving electrode and the first sensing electrode, and between the driving electrode and the second sensing electrode. The first sensing electrode and the driving electrode form a first capacitor. The second sensing electrode and the driving electrode form a second capacitor.
