Claim 0:
1. A MEMS device, comprising:
a semiconductor substrate including a main surface extending perpendicular to a first direction and a side surface extending on a plane parallel to the first direction and to a second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction; and
at least one cantilevered member protruding from the side surface of the semiconductor substrate along a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions, the at least one cantilevered member comprises a body portion including a piezoelectric material, the body portion having a length along the third direction, a height along the first direction and a width along the second direction, the height being greater than the width, the at least one cantilevered member being configured to vibrate by lateral bending along a direction perpendicular to the first direction;
an elastic support structure coupled to the semiconductor substrate; and
one or more conductive tracks aligned with the at least one cantilevered member, the one or more conductive tracks are electrically coupled to the piezoelectric material of the body portion of the cantilevered member, and the one or more conductive tracks extend along the elastic support structure.
