Abstract

See full text

A grid-like arrangement of membranes of doped polysilicon are mounted on a substrate but are electrically insulated therefrom each membrane extends over a cavity and is joined to the substrate at at least two supporting locations so that they cavity lies between the membrane and the substrate. Changes in an electrical quantity existing between the membranes and the substrate are measured as forces exerted on the grid-like arrangement of sensor elements so that the ridges in the skin on a finger tip may be sensed for detecting a fingerprint.
