Abstract:
A microphone and its manufacturing method, relating the semiconductor techniques, are presented. The microphone comprises: a substrate comprising an opening, a first electrode layer at the bottom of the opening, and at least one groove adjacent to the first electrode layer, with the groove and the opening on two opposing sides of a bottom surface of the first electrode layer; a separation material layer filling the groove; and a second electrode layer on the separation material layer, wherein the first electrode layer, the separation material layer, and the second electrode layer form a cavity. In this inventive concept, the separation material layer on the groove works as an anchor node embedding in the substrate to increases the effective contact area and the bonding power, and to improve the bonding quality between the second electrode layer and the substrate, which results in a strengthened second electrode layer.

Claim (Index 19):
The method of  claim 18 , wherein bonding the first semiconductor structure with the second semiconductor structure comprises: forming a second insulation layer on the second electrode layer; and bonding the second insulation layer with the separation material layer,\n and wherein when removing at least a portion of the separation material layer outside the groove, a portion of the second insulation layer is also removed to form the cavity.
