PHYSICAL QUANTITY SENSOR, SENSOR DEVICE, ELECTRONIC APPARATUS, AND MOVING OBJECT
First Claim
1. A physical quantity sensor comprising:
- a substrate;
a movable object that is oscillatably provided around a center of oscillation axis while facing the substrate and that is divided into a first movable portion and a second movable portion of which an area is larger than that of the first movable portion with the center of oscillation axis as a boundary in a plan view seen from a thickness direction of the substrate;
a first electrode that is disposed on the substrate facing the first movable portion; and
a second electrode that is disposed on the substrate facing the second movable portion,wherein the first electrode and the second electrode are configured so as to offset at least a part of a difference between a first fringe capacitance, which is between the first movable portion and the first electrode, and a second fringe capacitance, which is between the second movable portion and the second electrode.

Abstract
A physical quantity sensor includes a base substrate, a movable portion that is oscillatably provided around an axis while facing the base substrate and that is divided into a first movable portion and a second movable portion, a first fixed electrode that is disposed on the base substrate facing the first movable portion, and a second fixed electrode that is disposed on the base substrate facing the second movable portion. The first fixed electrode and the second fixed electrode are configured so as to offset at least a part of a difference between a first fringe capacitance, which is between the first movable portion and the first fixed electrode, and a second fringe capacitance, which is between the second movable portion and the second fixed electrode.
