DIAPHRAGM VACUUM MEASURING CELL AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SUCH MEASURING CELL
First Claim
1. :
- Method for the production of a vacuum measuring cell with a diaphragm (2) as pressure transducer, wherein on the one side of the diaphragm (2) at a spacing a first housing plate (1) is disposed sealing in the margin region with a joining means (3), such that between them a reference vacuum chamber (7) is formed and that on the other side of the diaphragm (2) at a spacing a second housing plate (4) is disposed sealing in the margin region with a joining means (3), such that between them a measuring vacuum chamber (9) is formed, and that the second housing plate (4) includes an opening and connection means (5) communicating with such and the measuring vacuum chamber (9) disposed sealing with joining means (3) for the connection of the measuring vacuum chamber (9) with the medium to be measured, wherein the diaphragm (2) and the two housing plates (1, 4) are comprised of a metal oxide, characterized in that the measuring cell is coated in a vacuum chamber (64) using an ALD method and the material deposition takes place through the opening of the measuring cell and the connection means (5) such that the inner wall of the measuring vacuum chamber (9) and the opening with the connection means (5) is covered with a protective layer (13) such that at least the joining means (3) for the diaphragm (2) is protectively covered.

Abstract
Introduced is a method for the production of a diaphragm vacuum measuring cell, wherein on the one side of the diaphragm (2) at a spacing a first housing plate (1) is disposed sealing in the margin region with a joining means (3), and that on the other side of the diaphragm (2) at a spacing a second housing plate (4) is disposed sealing in the margin region with a joining means (3), and that the second housing plate (4) has an opening at which a connection means (5) is disposed sealing with joining means (3) for the connection of the measuring cell (8) with the medium to be measured, wherein the diaphragm (2) and the two housing plates (1, 4) are comprised of a metal oxide. Using an ALD method, the measuring cell is coated in a vacuum chamber (64), in particular through the opening of the measuring cell, such that the inner wall of the measuring vacuum chamber (9) and the opening with the connection means (5) is covered with a protective layer (13) such that at least the joining means (3) for the diaphragm (2) is protectively covered against corrosion.
