Abstract

A dual backplate MEMS microphone system including a flexible diaphragm sandwiched between two single-crystal silicon backplates may be formed by fabricating each backplate in a separate wafer, and then transferring one backplate from its wafer to the other wafer, to form two separate capacitors with the diaphragm.
