ABSTRACT:
A capacitive pressure transducer has a pedestal 25 formed in a silicon layer 14 surrounded by a moat 26 extending through the silicon layer, with borosilicate glass 17, 22 at the edges of the silicon layer forming the walls of the pressure chamber, with a wafer 28 of silicon bonded thereto. The pedestal 25 is joined to the walls of the vacuum chamber by borosilicate glass 16, whereby it is wholly, electrically isolated therefrom. A method of forming a capacitive pressure transducer utilizing the variable etch rates of aluminum, glass and silicon, together with field assisted bonding, is also disclosed.
