Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A micromechanical sensor apparatus has a movable gate and a field effect transistor. The field effect transistor has a drain region, a source region, an intermediate channel region with a first doping type, and a movable gate which is separated from the channel region by an intermediate space. The drain region, the source region, and the channel region are arranged in a substrate. A guard region is provided in the substrate at least on the longitudinal sides of the channel region and has a second doping type which is the same as the first doping type and has a higher doping concentration.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A process for producing a micromechanical sensor apparatus with a movable gate, the process comprising: forming a field effect transistor with a drain region, a source region, an intermediate channel region with a first doping type, and a movable gate which is separated from the channel region by an intermediate space, wherein the drain region, the source region and the channel region are arranged in a substrate; and producing a guard region in the substra…
