Physical quantity sensor, manufacturing method of physical quantity sensor, sensor device, electronic apparatus, and moving object
First Claim
1. A physical quantity sensor comprising:
- a substrate;
a fixed electrode which is disposed on the substrate, the fixed electrode being generally in a rectangular shape with four corners;
a movable body which is provided above the fixed electrode via a gap, the movable body being movable with respect to the fixed electrode, the movable body being generally in a rectangular shape with four corners; and
a protrusion which is disposed at a position overlapped with the movable body in a plan view on the substrate,wherein the protrusion is configured by stacked layers including a conductive layer and an insulating layer, and the conductive layer is directly provided on the fixed electrode so that the conductive layer has a same potential as the fixed electrode, andthe physical quantity sensor detects a capacitance change between the fixed electrode and the movable body.

Abstract
A physical quantity sensor includes a base substrate; a movable unit which is provided so as to be displaced with respect to the base substrate by facing the base substrate; a first fixed electrode and a second fixed electrode which are disposed on the base substrate by facing the movable unit; and a plurality of protrusion portions which are disposed at a position overlapped with the movable unit in a planar view, on the movable unit side of the base substrate, in which the protrusion portion includes a conductive layer with the same potential as that of the first fixed electrode and the second fixed electrode, and an insulating layer which is provided on a side opposite to the base substrate with respect to the conductive layer.
