Zusammenfassung:A method of forming a device with a piezoresistor is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a substrate, etching a trench in the substrate to form a vertical wall, growing a piezoresistor layer epitaxially on the vertical wall, and separating the vertical wall from an underlying layer of the substrate that extends along a horizontal plane such that the piezoresistor layer is movable with respect to the underlying layer within the horizontal plane.
