Resonant capacitive MEMS acoustic emission transducers
We describe resonant capacitive MEMS transducers developed for use as acoustic emission detectors, fabricated in the commercial three-layer polysilicon surface micromachining process (MUMPs). The 1-cm square device contains six independent transducers in the frequency range between 100 kHz and 500 kHz, and a seventh transducer at 1 MHz. Each transducer is a parallel plate capacitor with one pla...
متن کاملPorous Silicon Based Resonant Mirrors for Biochemical Sensing
We report on our preliminary results in the realization and characterization of a porous silicon (PSi) resonant mirror (RM) for optical biosensing. We have numerically and experimentally studied the coupling between the electromagnetic field, totally reflected at the base of a high refractive index prism, and the optical modes of a PSi waveguide. This configuration is very sensitive to changes ...
متن کاملPiezoelectric versus electrostatic actuation for a capacitive RF-MEMS switch
-In this paper, piezoelectric actuation is compared with electrostatic actuation for application in RF-MEMS switches with respect to actuation voltage and technological implementation. The expression for the actuation voltages of electrostatic and piezoelectric actuation are discussed and compared with respect to scaling. Calculation examples show actuation voltages for a cantilever beam of 1μm...
متن کاملPulse-drive and Capacitive Measurement Circuit for Mems Electrostatic Actuators
In this paper we present an electronic circuit for position or capacitance estimation of MEMS electrostatic actuators based on a switched capacitor technique. The circuit uses a capacitive divider configuration composed by a fixed capacitor and the variable capacitance of the electrostatic actuator for generating a signal that is a function of the input voltage and capacitive ratio. The propose...
متن کاملCapacitive detection in resonant MEMS with arbitrary amplitude of motion
Detection of motion with parallel plate capacitors is commonly used in MEMS; small amplitude of motion is typically assumed. In this paper, we derive precise and constructive equations for the case of parallel plate capacitive detection of arbitrary amplitude of motion. These equations are solved in closed form without using a small displacement assumption. A precise relation between the amplit...
