Abstract

A method for forming a ceramic diaphragm structure includes providing a laminate of a ceramic green substrate having at least one window and a plurality of layers, and a thin ceramic green sheet superimposed on the ceramic green substrate to cover the at least one window. The laminate is fired so that the ceramic green sheet provides a diaphragm portion protruding in a direction away from the at least one window, and the fired laminate is subjected to a second firing step under load.
