Summary:A MEMS structure that includes: a substrate having an opening; a diaphragm arranged opposite the opening in the substrate; a plurality of anchors securing the diaphragm to the substrate or to another component; and a fixed membrane surrounding the diaphragm over a slit. The outline of the diaphragm protrudes toward the anchors and includes a predetermined intersecting structure that when viewed from the normal to the diaphragm, the diaphragm protrudes toward the anchors in at least one location on the diaphragm between two intersection points of the outline of the diaphragm and the outline of the opening in the substrate. The intersecting structure is configured such that the distance between the two intersection points is greater than the width of the diaphragm at a location closest to an anchor.
