    Abstract: A microelectromechanical system (MEMS) microphone has a substrate including a backside trench, and a flexible membrane deposited on the substrate extending over the backside trench. The flexible membrane includes a first electrode. A silicon spacer layer is deposited on a perimeter portion of the flexible membrane. The spacer layer defines an acoustic chamber above the membrane and the backside trench. A silicon rich silicon nitride (SiN) backplate layer is deposited on top of the silicon spacer layer extending over the acoustic chamber. The backplate defines a plurality of opening into the acoustic chamber and includes a metallization that serves as a second electrode.

    Abstract: In a method for producing an MEMS component, wherein, in the course of producing the multilevel interconnect layer stack for connecting microelectronic circuits, micromechanical structure elements (7, 8, 9) that are to be exposed later are embedded at the same time, a cutout is subsequently produced from a substrate rear side (R) as far as the multilevel interconnect layer stack, and then the micromechanical structure elements in the multilevel interconnect layer stack are exposed through the cutout. In order to increase the process accuracy, as early as in the course of producing the multilevel interconnect layer stack or even in the front end of line, a reference mask (22) for defining a lateral position or a lateral extent of the micromechanical structure elements (7, 8, 9) to be exposed is produced, wherein the reference mask (22) is arranged on the substrate front side between the substrate and the multilevel interconnect layer stack or in a layer of the multilevel interconnect layer stack that is situated nearer to the substrate (1) in comparison with the structure element.
