Abstract

An electrostatic capacitance sensor 1 includes a semiconductor substrate 4. A first fixing plate 2 is joined to a one-side surface 4a of the semiconductor substrate 4, and a second fixing plate 3 is joined to other-side surface 4b of the semiconductor substrate 4, whereby a space portion S is formed. Then, static electricity suppressing means 70 for suppressing static electricity from being generated in the space portion S is provided in the electrostatic capacitance sensor 1.
