Method for reducing the temperature dependence of a capacitive sensor and a capacitive sensor construction

摘要

A method of manufacturing a sensor including forming an insulating layer on top of a conductive substrate, and forming a conducting electrode on top of the insulating layer. Further, the insulating layer is formed to include support areas formed at edges of the conducting electrode and a partial area formed under the conducting electrode, and a thickness (d2) of the partial area of the insulating layer is less than a thickness (d1) of the support areas of the insulating area.
