多层第二导电层5通过键合结构8键合于第一导电层3上,自下而上,相邻的第二导电层5之间具有间隙,以提供第二导电层5发生变形的空间,相邻的第二导电层5之间通过连接部7连接,每层第二导电层5上具有若干第二开口6,第二开口6为环形槽结构,若干第二开口6以第二导电层5的轴线为中心依次间隔设置,相邻的第二开口6的内径可相同也可存在差异,在此不做限定,第二导电层5为导电材质,例如多晶硅。
第二衬底9盖合于第一衬底1上,第二衬底9为半导体衬底,例如硅衬底,一种可行的实施方式中,第二衬底9为圆形,本领域的技术人员可以知晓,第二衬底9也可以为其他的形状,例如方形等,在此不做限定,第二衬底9与第一衬底1之间合围形成密闭空间,从而使得惯性传感器内部的结构避免受到外界环境的干扰,便于控制腔体内的空气压力,提高工作稳定性。
上述实施例中,通过设置多层第二导电层5,与传统的单层结构相比,模具尺寸缩小到更小的尺寸,降低了制造成本,改善了设备与便携式消费应用的集成,同时较大的可移动导电结构具有更大的表面积,能够提高XY轴灵敏度。
进一步地,连接部7包括若干第一连接体71,若干第一连接体71沿着第二导电层5的径向间隔设置,第一连接体71的两端分别连接相邻的两个第二导电层5,第一连接体71起到了支撑固定以及电性连接的作用,在水平方向上,相邻的第一连接体71之间保持有预设的距离,在垂直方向上,相邻的第二导电层5之间具有间隙,从而可以提供第二导电层5一定的变形空间。
一种可行的实施方式中,参照图1所示,第一连接体71与键合结构8的位置相对应,相邻的键合结构8之间形成空腔,位于空腔上方的第二导电层5为可动质量块11,可动质量块11产生位移时,改变与第一导电层3之间的间距,从而可以检测到对应方向的电容信号,以实现对惯性的检测,将第一连接体71的连接位置与键合结构8的位置自下而上对应设置,这样多个第二导电层5的可动质量块11的位移过程将趋于一致,可以有效提高惯性传感器的灵敏度以及可靠性。
参照图1所示,连接部7还包括若干第二连接体72,若干第二连接体72沿着第二导电层5的径向间隔设置,第二连接体72的两端分别连接相邻的两个第二导电层5,第二连接体72的宽度小于第一连接体71的宽度,一方面第二连接体72可以提高相邻的两个第二导电层5之间的连接可靠性,另一方面,通过将第二连接体72设置的比第一连接体71窄,第二导电层5形成更大的表面积,第二导电层5的柔顺性得到较好的保障。
进一步地,参照图1所示,若干第二连接体72靠近第二导电层5的边缘设置,由于第二导电层5的挠度是抛物线形的,在圆心位置处的第二导电层5的挠度最大,在边缘位置处的第二导电层5的挠度较小,将第二连接体72设置在第二导电层5运动最小的地方,从而可以提高惯性传感器的灵敏度。 
本申请所提供的实施例中,第一连接体71与第二连接体72均为导电材料制成,例如多晶硅,连接部7与第二导电层5粘接固定,这样易于制造,设备结构内可以继续堆叠多达两层或更多层。
参照图1所示,键合结构8包括键合连接的第一键合层81以及第二键合层82,第一键合层81层叠于第一导电层3的顶部,第二键合层82层叠于第二导电层5的底部,第一键合层81以及第二键合层82均为环体结构,第一键合层81以及第二键合层82均为金属材质,以形成金属热压键合。

S101:于第二衬底9上形成一层第二导电层5,在第二导电层5上形成第二开口6;

S102:第二导电层5上沉积牺牲层12;
该步骤中,牺牲层12的材料可以是PSG,通过沉积一定厚度的牺牲层12,在后期去除牺牲层12,以在两个第二导电层5之间形成间隙。
S103:于牺牲层12上再形成一层第二导电层5,在第二导电层5上形成第二开口6;
本申请实施例中,共设有两层第二导电层5,本领域的技术人员可以知晓,第二导电层5可以设置的更多,在此不做限定,该步骤中,在第二导电层5的表面沉积形成抗蚀剂层,采用光刻工艺图形化抗蚀剂层以形成掩模,以及经由掩模刻蚀第二导电层5,以形成贯穿第二导电层5的第二开口6。
