Abstract: A MEMS device (17) formed by a body (2); a cavity (25), extending above the body; mobile and fixed structures (18, 19) extending above the cavity and physically connected to the body via anchoring regions (16); and electrical-connection regions (10a, 10b, 10c), extending between the body (2) and the anchoring regions (16) and electrically connected to the mobile and fixed structures. The electrical-connection regions (10a, 10b, 10c) are formed by a conductive multilayer including a first semiconductor material layer (5), a composite layer (6) of a binary compound of the semiconductor material and of a transition metal, and a second semiconductor material layer (7).

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a protective layer (25) for protecting an intermediate structural layer (22) against etching with hydrofluoric acid (HP), the intermediate structural layer (22) being made of a material that can be etched or damaged by hydrofluoric acid, the method comprising the steps of: forming a first layer of aluminium oxide, by atomic layer deposition, on the intermediate structural layer (22); performing a thermal crystallization process on the first layer of aluminium oxide, forming a first intermediate protective layer (25a),- forming a second layer of aluminium oxide, by atomic layer deposition, above the first intermediate protective layer; and performing a thermal crystallisation process on the second layer of aluminium oxide, forming a second intermediate protective layer (25b) and thereby completing the formation of the protective layer (25). The method for forming the protective layer (25) can be used, for example, during the manufacturing steps of an inertial sensor such as a gyroscope or an accelerometer.
