Microelectromechanical system and method for manufacturing the same

A MEMS comprises a stack comprising a first layer and a second layer having sides facing each other. The first layer and the second layer are attached to each other by a contact material at opposing contact regions of the sides of the first and the second layer. The contact material forms a distance between the sides of the first and the second layer. A first signal line is arranged at the side of the first layer. A second signal line is arranged at the side of the second layer. The first signal line, at a first longitudinal portion of the first signal line, laterally extends through the contact region of the first side of the first layer. The second signal line comprises a void in a void region at a location in the corresponding contact region of the side of the second layer and opposing the first signal line, The first signal line, at a second longitudinal portion of the first signal line, faces the second signal line spaced apart from the second signal line.
