Abstract:
A MEMS sound transducer includes a backplate and a membrane held by an edge fixing such that the membrane is deflectable along a deflection direction toward the backplate. The MEMS sound transducer further includes an elevation element arranged between the membrane and the backplate and having a first height along the deflection direction. The MEMS sound transducer also includes a supporting structure and a spacer element arranged between the membrane and the supporting structure and having a second height along the deflection direction, the second height being greater than the first height. The supporting structure is the backplate or is a supporting element arranged opposite the backplate, such that the membrane is arranged between the backplate and the supporting element.

Claim (Index 21):
The method of  claim 20 , wherein the cutout is a first cutout and the method further comprises:\n producing a second cutout in the sacrificial layer together with the first cutout, such that the second cutout has the first height in the sacrificial layer and the first cutout has the second height after deposition of the sacrificial material.
