Abstract

A micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) structure is disclosed. The MEMS structure includes a backplate electrode and a 3D diaphragm electrode. The 3D diaphragm electrode has a composite structure so that a dielectric is disposed between two metal layers. The 3D diaphragm electrode is adjacent to the backplate electrode to form a variable capacitor together.
