Zusammenfassung:Provided is a MEMS device and an electro-acoustic transducer. The MEMS device includes: a substrate having a cavity passing through the substrate; a diaphragm connected to the substrate and covers the cavity. The diaphragm includes oppositely arranged first and second membranes. The first membrane is on one side of the second membrane facing away from the cavity and includes a first protrusion extending away from the second membrane, the first protrusion has a first groove opening towards the second membrane. The second membrane includes a second protrusion extending away from the first membrane and opposite to the first protrusion, the second protrusion has a second groove opening towards the first membrane. By providing first and second protrusions on first and second diaphragms to form a corrugated diaphragm, the internal stress and stiffness of the diaphragm decreases, which effectively increases the mechanical sensitivity of the MEMS device.
