Telemetry method and apparatus using magnetically-driven MEMS resonant structure

A telemetry method and apparatus using pressure sensing elements remotely located from associated pick-up, and processing units for the sensing and monitoring of pressure within an environment. This includes remote pressure sensing apparatus incorporating a magnetically-driven resonator being hermetically-sealed within an encapsulating shell or diaphragm and associated new method of sensing pressure. The resonant structure of the magnetically-driven resonator is suitable for measuring quantities convertible to changes in mechanical stress or mass. The resonant structure can be integrated into pressure sensors, adsorbed mass sensors, strain sensors, and the like. The apparatus and method provide information by utilizing, or listening for, the residence frequency of the oscillating resonator. The resonant structure listening frequencies of greatest interest are those at the mechanical structure's fundamental or harmonic resonant frequency. The apparatus is operable within a wide range of environments for remote one-time, random, periodic, or continuous/on-going monitoring of a particular fluid environment. Applications include biomedical applications such as measuring intraocular pressure, blood pressure, and intracranial pressure sensing.

Resonator system

A resonator system for generating a radio frequency (RF) magnetic field in a volume under investigation of a magnetic resonance (MR) arrangement, comprises a number N of individual resonators (2) which surround the volume under investigation and which are each disposed on a flat dielectric substrate (1) around a z-axis, wherein the individual resonators (2) have windows (8) through each of which one individual RF field is generated in the volume under investigation in single operation of the individual resonators (2) and, through cooperation among the individual resonators (2), a useful RF field (7) is generated in the volume under investigation, wherein a remote RF field (6) is asymptotically generated far outside of the resonator system, and the spatial distribution of the useful RF field (7) is substantially mirror-symmetrical relative to a first plane A which contains the z-axis, and that of the asymptotic remote RF field (6) is substantially mirror-symmetrical relative to a second plane B which contains the z-axis, the useful RF field (7) extending substantially parallel to the first plane A in the volume under investigation, wherein the number of individual resonators (2) is N>4 and wherein, during operation of the resonator system at at least one point in time, the substrate plane of at least one individual resonator (2) subtends an angle of more than 40° with respect to the direction of the useful RF field (7) in the volume under investigation, and at least one further individual resonator (2) subtends an angle of less than 40° with respect to the direction of the useful RF field (7) in the volume under investigation, is characterized in that the first plane A is not rotated about the z-axis relative to the second plane B or is rotated by less than 360° / (N+1). The inventive resonator system realizes a resonator system with improved field homogeneity and full quadrature suitability, high quality factor and large efficiency using straightforward constructional measures.

Method for measuring material complex permittivity based on substrate integrated waveguide round resonant cavities

The invention relates to the technical field of testing of material complex permittivity, in particular to a method for measuring material complex permittivity based on substrate integrated waveguide round resonant cavities. The method comprises the steps that firstly, the substrate integrated waveguide round resonant cavities with different resonant frequencies (work frequencies) are machined; secondly, for the substrate integrated waveguide round resonant cavities with the same resonant frequency, a sample with material identical to that of a dielectric layer 2, a standard sample with the known complex permittivity and a sample to be measured are respectively loaded, swept-frequency signals are fed respectively through a vector network analyzer, and the resonant frequencies and the quality factors of the three samples are tested; finally, simultaneous equations are established and solved, and then the complex permittivity of the sample to be measured at the work frequency of the corresponding substrate integrated waveguide round resonant cavity can be obtained. A multi-frequency-point clock test of the material complex permittivity can be completed in the mode that the substrate integrated waveguide round resonant cavities with other work frequencies are used and the same test process is repeated. The method for measuring material complex permittivity based on the substrate integrated waveguide round resonant cavities has the advantages that the sizes of the substrate integrated waveguide round resonant cavities are small, machining is convenient, and the precision of a measurement result is high.

Micro electro-mechanical variable capacitor

A three-dimensional micro electro-mechanical (MEMS) variable capacitor is described wherein movable comb electrodes of opposing polarity are fabricated simultaneously on the same substrate are independently actuated. These electrodes are formed in an interdigitated fashion to maximize the capacitance of the device. The electrodes are jointly or individually actuated. A separate actuation electrode and a ground plane electrode actuate the movable electrodes. The voltage potential between the two electrodes provides a primary mode of operation of the device. The variation of the sidewall overlap area between the interdigitated fingers provides the expected capacitance tuning of the device. The interdigitated electrodes can also be attached on both ends to form fixed-fixed beams. The stiffness of the electrodes is reduced by utilizing thin support structures at the ends of the electrodes. The three dimensional aspect of the device avails large surface area. Large capacitance variation and tuning ranges are obtained by independent actuation of the electrode fingers. A plurality of modes of operation of the device provides wide flexibility and greater performance advantage for the device. Upon fabrication of the device, a separate substrate with etched dielectric is used to encapsulated the device. The MEMS device is then completely encapsulated, requiring no additional packaging of the device. Further, since alignment and bonding can be done on a wafer scale, an improved device yield is obtained at a lower cost.
