摘要
High temperature co-fired ceramics(HTCCs) have wide applications with stable mechanical properties,but they have not yet been used to fabricate sensors.By introducing the wireless telemetric sensor system and ceramic structure embedding a pressure-deformable cavity,the designed sensors made from HTCC materials(zirconia and 96% alumina) are fabricated,and their capacities for the pressure measurement are tested using a wireless interrogation method.Using the fabricated sensor,a study is conducted to measure the atmospheric pressure in a sealed vessel.The experimental sensitivity of the device is 2 Hz/Pa of zirconia and 1.08 Hz/Pa of alumina below 0.5 MPa with a readout distance of 2.5 cm.The described sensor technology can be applied for monitoring of atmospheric pressure to evaluate important component parameters in harsh environments.
