Abstract: An ultrasonic transducer includes an arrangement of ultrasonic transducer elements, wherein the ultrasonic transducer elements include a first ultrasonic transducer element and a second ultrasonic transducer element. The first ultrasonic transducer element has a first membrane having a first membrane reinforcement and a first membrane electrode, and a first counter-electrode. The second ultrasonic transducer element has a second membrane having a second membrane reinforcement and a second membrane electrode, and a second counter-electrode. Additionally, a resonant frequency of the first membrane differs from a resonant frequency of the second membrane.

Abstract: The application relates to a semiconductor device for particle measurement having a cavity housing and a MEMS chip arranged inside the cavity housing. The housing includes a first opening, via which the cavity is connected to the surroundings and in which a first grating is arranged, which is capable by setting it to a first electrical potential of attracting particles from the surroundings and/or electrically charging them. The MEMS chip includes a membrane facing toward the first opening, which is capable by setting it to a second electrical potential of attracting particles. The application furthermore relates to a method for operating a semiconductor device having a cavity housing and a MEMS chip arranged inside the cavity housing.

Abstract: An ultrasonic transducer includes at least one ultrasonic transducer element, a semiconductor chip that includes the ultrasonic transducer element, and a housing. The semiconductor chip is arranged in the housing. The semiconductor chip is embedded in a dimensionally stable encapsulation, wherein a contact surface of the dimensionally stable encapsulation is configured for acoustically coupling the ultrasonic transducer to a casing. Additionally, an ultrasonic transducer system and a method for fitting the ultrasonic transducer or ultrasonic transducer system are provided.

Abstract: An ultrasonic touch sensor includes: a covering having a contact face configured to receive a touch; a first ultrasonic transducer element; a first semiconductor chip comprising the first ultrasonic transducer element; a second ultrasonic transducer element; and an acoustic barrier formed between the first ultrasonic transducer element and the second ultrasonic transducer element.

Abstract: A sensor system for attachment to a casing includes at least one sensor element, where the sensor element is configured for detecting an environment property of an environment which, with the sensor system attached to the casing, is situated on the opposite side of the casing with respect to the sensor system. The sensor system also includes an encapsulation layer, where the sensor element is embedded in the encapsulation layer, and where the encapsulation layer has a contact surface for attaching the sensor system to the casing.
