Abstract: A construction concept for high-pressure sensors is provided, enabling simple and economical manufacture of reliable high-pressure sensors even for pressure ranges above 2200 bar. A high-pressure sensor of this kind encompasses a sensor element for pressure sensing and a connector piece for coupling the sensor element to a measured system, a diaphragm being embodied over a blind opening in the base element of the sensor element, a pressure conduit being embodied in the base element of the connector piece, and the sensor element being mounted on the connector piece in such a way that the diaphragm can be impinged upon, through the pressure conduit that opens into the blind opening, by a measured pressure. The blind opening in the base element of the sensor element is embodied, at least in one portion, in a manner tapering conically toward the diaphragm, and that end of the pressure conduit which faces toward the sensor element is tubular in shape.

Abstract: A micromechanical pressure sensor and a method for producing a micromechanical pressure sensor. This pressure sensor has at least one membrane and a measuring element situated on the membrane. A pressure applied at the membrane or a pressure differential applied at the different sides of the membrane results in deformation of the membrane. Simultaneous with the deformation of the membrane, the measuring element is subjected to elastic elongation and/or compression. In a piezo-sensitive component, such elastic elongation and/or compression generates a measured variable in the measuring element, which represents the applied pressure or the applied pressure differential at the membrane. It is provided in this context that the measuring element have at least partially a NiCr(Si) layer. Due to an at least partial crystallization in the production of the micromechanical pressure sensor, this NiCr(Si) layer has more advantageous piezoelectrical characteristics than an amorphous NiCr(Si) layer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a sensor element for detecting pressures or forces. The sensor element (10) includes a sensor diaphragm (13), on the diaphragm outer side (20) of which piezoresistive measuring elements (8) are located. The sensor diaphragm (13) of the sensor element (10) is diametrically opposed to a sealing surface (15, 16) for sealing off the sensor element (10) from a housing. A force introduction region (23, 24) for introducing a force which produces a seal is mechanically decoupled from the sensor diaphragm (13) of the sensor element (10).
