Problems solved by technology

However, the introduction of the reference cantilever beam needs to establish an independent closed-loop circuit for it, which also greatly increases the complexity and cost of the chip structure, packaging and detection system
In addition, only relying on the reference beam to suppress the influence of ambient temperature cannot fully meet the requirements of high-precision measurement

Abstract

The invention discloses a micro-cantilever beam resonator with lower resonance frequency temperature coefficient. The resonator adopts a silicon dioxide / silicon or silicon dioxide / silicon nitride double-layer structure to realize temperature self-compensation of the resonant frequency of the cantilever beam. Theoretical calculation and experimental verification show that the optimal thickness ratio of silicon and silicon dioxide films for silicon / silicon dioxide double-layer cantilever beam resonators is 1.1 to 1.7, and the ratio of silicon dioxide / silicon nitride double-layer cantilever beam resonators is The optimal thickness ratio of silicon oxide film and silicon nitride film is 0.9-1.2, wherein silicon dioxide is grown by thermal oxidation method, and silicon nitride is made by low pressure vapor deposition method (LPCVD). The low-temperature cross-sensitivity micro-cantilever resonator disclosed by the present invention has the advantages of simple temperature compensation method, simple structure, low cost, and no need to introduce additional temperature sensors, reference cantilever beams and compensation circuits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a micro-cantilever beam resonator with low temperature cross-sensitivity, in particular to a cantilever beam resonator which realizes the temperature self-compensation of the resonant frequency by using the difference in the temperature coefficient of Young's modulus and density of different semiconductor materials, belonging to field of microelectromechanical systems. Background technique [0002] Sensors are the basis of test instruments and detection systems. Traditional sensors measure non-electric quantities such as pressure, temperature, and displacement by changing electrical quantities such as resistance, capacitance, or inductance, and output them as voltage and current signals. An A / D converter needs to be added between the sensor and the control circuit, which not only reduces the reliability, response speed and measurement accuracy of the system, but also increases the cost. The output of the resonant sensor is a f...
