Method for the production of a component, and component
First Claim
1. A method for producing a component, in particular a micromechanical, micro-electromechanical or micro-opto-electromechanical component, comprising the following steps:
- production of a first layer assembly, which has a first substrate, on the latter a first insulation layer and on the latter an at least partly conductive covering layer,after producing the first layer assembly, production of first depressions and second depressions in the covering layer, wherein the first depressions have a first etching depth and the second depressions have a second etching depth, which is smaller than the first etching depth and smaller than the thickness of the covering layer, and the first etching depth is at least equal to the thickness of the covering layer,after producing the first and second depressions, application of an at least partly conductive structure layer to the covering layer, in such a way that the structure layer adjoins the covering layer on that side of the covering layer, in which the second depressions are produced, and at least in regions.

Abstract
A method for producing a component, especially a micromechanical, micro-electro-mechanical or micro-opto-electro-mechanical component, as well as such a component which has an active structure that is embedded in a layer structure. Strip conductor bridges are formed by etching first and second depressions having a first and second, different etching depth into a covering layer of a first layer combination that additionally encompasses a substrate and an insulation layer. The deeper depression is used for insulating the strip conductor bridge while the shallower depression provides a moving space for the active structure with the moving space being bridged by the strip conductor bridge.
