Abstract: Provided is a pressure sensor that includes a detection film that is arranged on a silicon substrate, detects a pressure applied to a surface thereof, and generates a protrusion deformation in response to the pressure. The pressure sensor also includes an optical transmitter and an optical detector that are arranged on the silicon substrate on opposite sides of the detection film and are located at a plane parallel to a plane comprising the detection film. The pressure sensor also includes a pressure calculation module that is connected to the optical detector and is used for acquiring light intensity data and calculating a pressure value according to the light intensity data. Also provided is a method of manufacturing the pressure sensor.

Abstract: A pressure sensor (10) comprising: a detection film (200) which is arranged on a silicon substrate (100) and is used for detecting a pressure which is applied to the surface of the detection film and generating a bulge deformation which adapts to the size of the pressure; an optical transmitter (300) and an optical detector (400) which are arranged on the silicon substrate (100), are located on a plane which is parallel to a plane where the detection film (200) is located, and are oppositely arranged at two sides of the detection film (200); and a pressure calculation module which is connected to the optical detector (400) and is used for acquiring detected light intensity data, and calculating a pressure value according to the light intensity data.
