Micromechanical component and method for producing a micromechanical component
First Claim
1. A micromechanical component, which is a micromechanical sensor, comprises:
- a first wafer having at least one structural element; and
a second wafer having at least one mating structural element;
wherein the structural element and the mating structural element are configured so that a relative displacement of the first wafer with respect to the second wafer parallel to a main extension plane of the first wafer essentially leads to one of compressive loading and tensile loading between the structural element and the mating structural element.

Abstract
A micromechanical component, in particular a micromechanical sensor, having a first wafer and a second wafer is provided, the first wafer having at least one structural element, and the second wafer having at least one mating structural element, and, in addition, the structural element and the mating structural element are designed in such a way that a relative displacement of the first wafer relative to the second wafer parallel to a main extension plane of the first wafer essentially leads to compressive loading or tensile loading between the structural element and the mating structural element.

8. A method for making a micromechanical component, the method comprising:
-
applying and patterning a first protective layer on a cap wafer; etching the cap wafer; at least partially removing the first protective layer; etching anew the cap wafer; and joining the cap wafer to a functional layer so that a stud structure engages with a groove of a functional layer and a stable mechanical connection is produced in at least one subregion of a groove surface; wherein the micromechanical component is a micromechanical sensor, and includes; a first wafer having at least one structural element; and a second wafer having at least one mating structural element; wherein the structural element and the mating structural element are configured so that a relative displacement of the first wafer with respect to the second wafer parallel to a main extension plane of the first wafer essentially leads to one of compressive loading and tensile loading between the structural element and the mating structural element.
