    Abstract: A MEMS structure is provided. The MEMS structure includes a substrate and a backplate, the substrate has an opening portion, and the backplate is disposed on one side of the substrate and has acoustic holes. The MEMS structure also includes a diaphragm disposed between the substrate and the backplate, and the diaphragm extends across the opening portion of the substrate and includes outer ventilation holes and inner ventilation holes arranged in a concentric manner. The outer ventilation holes and the inner ventilation holes are relatively arranged in a ring shape and surround the center of the diaphragm. The MEMS structure further includes a pillar disposed between the backplate and the diaphragm. The pillar prevents the diaphragm from being electrically connected to the backplate.

    Abstract: A piezoelectric microelectromechanical systems microphone can be mounted on a printed circuit board. The microphone can include a substrate with an opening between a bottom end of the substrate and a top end of the substrate. The microphone can include a single piezoelectric film layer disposed over the top end of the substrate and defining a diaphragm structure, the single piezoelectric film layer having substantially zero residual stress and formed from a piezoelectric wafer. The microphone can include one or more electrodes disposed over the diaphragm structure. The diaphragm structure is configured to deflect when subjected to sound pressure via the opening in the substrate.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a MEMS microphone comprising (i) a substrate layer, (ii) a fixed backplate, and (iii) an intermediate layer sandwiched between the substrate layer and the fixed backplate. The substrate layer has a first opening through the thickness of the substrate layer. The intermediate layer has a second opening through the thickness of the intermediate layer. The fixed backplate forms a ceiling of the second opening, and the second opening is larger than the first opening and extends into the first opening, forming a looped recess (“undercut”). The looped recess is defined by a looped ledge on the substrate, a looped sidewall around the second opening, and a looped ceiling from the fixed backplate. The looped sidewall and the looped ceiling are made of a same material.
