1. A capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer cell comprising:
a substrate a cell membrane opposing the substrate with a gap there between; a first electrode coupled to the cell membrane, a second electrode embedded into a cell floor opposing the first electrode and separated therefrom by a gas or vacuum cavity, wherein the cell floor comprises an upper surface of the substrate, and a third electrode, and the third electrode, which is located in the cell floor opposing the second electrode from the cavity side, wherein said third electrode is capacitively coupled with the first or second electrode, whereby the capacitive coupling is realized by a dielectric layer sandwiched between and being in direct contact with the capacitively coupled electrodes. |
