The equivalent stiffness of different directions of the accelerometer is given. From the point of view of energy and mechanics, expressions of some key parameters, such as the damping, sensitivity, resolution of the accelerometer, are derived. The accelerometer noise behavior of mechanical-thermal noise in the open-loop system, along with the dynamic range of the open-loop system and closed-loop system is analyzed. The result is that the noise of the capacitive micro accelerometer is dominated by the magnitude of mechanical-thermal noise. At the same time, the magnitude of mechanical-thermal noise depends on the temperature and magnitude of mechanical damp. The result of the measurement from the implemented closed-loop microo-accelerometer system shows that the resolution is the level of rag, and the measurement range is from -50g to 50g.展开更多

In this paper, a novel micro-accelerometer based on AlAs/GaAs/In0.1Ga0.9As/GaAs/AlAs RTDs is designed and fabricated to be a four-beam-mass structure, and an RTD-Wheatstone bridge measurement system is established to test the basic properties of this novel accelerometer. According to the experimental results, the sensitivity of the RTD based micro-accelerometer is adjustable within a range of 3 orders when the bias voltage of the sensor changes. The largest sensitivity of this RTD based miero-accelerometer is 560.2025 mV/g which is about 10 times larger than that of silicon based micro piezoresistive accelerometer, while the smallest one is 1.49135 mV/g.展开更多

The VMGFET using air gap as an insulator layer allows the gate to move on the substrate vertically by external forces. Finite element analysis is used to simulate mechanical behaviors of the designed structure. For the simulation, the ground acceleration spectrum of the 1952 Kern County Earthquake is employed to investigate the structural integrity of the sensor in vibration. Based on the simulation, a prototype VMGFET accelerometer is fabricated from silicon on insulator wafer. According to current–voltage characteristics of the prototype VMGFET, the threshold voltage is measured to be 2.32 V, which determines the effective charge density and the mutual transconductance of1.545910-8C cm-2and 6.59 m A V-1, respectively. The device sensitivity is 9.36–9.42 m V g-1in the low frequency,and the first natural frequency is found to be 1230 Hz. The profile smoothness of the sensed signal is in 3 d B range up to1 k Hz.展开更多
