Publication number: 20240150166Abstract: Various embodiments include a microelectromechanical switching element. The element may include: a substrate with a carrier layer, an electrically insulating layer, and a semiconductor layer; a deflectable bending element formed by a freed subregion of the semiconductor layer; and a cover substrate connected to the carrier substrate. The carrier layer defines a first cutout in the region of the bending element. The cover substrate comprises a second cutout and/or an encircling spacer layer in the region of the bending element. The first cutout and the second cutout define a superordinate hollow space in which the bending element is arranged so as to be deflectable. The superordinate hollow space is delimited by the carrier layer and by the cover substrate to provide a hermetically encapsulation from the external environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 21, 2022Publication date: May 9, 2024Applicant: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Oliver Raab, Markus Schwarz, Jörg Zapf, Hans Santos Wilke
