Description

technical field [0001] The invention mainly relates to the field of microelectromechanical systems, in particular to a quartz micromechanical gyroscope based on shear stress detection and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Compared with traditional gyroscopes, quartz micromechanical gyroscopes manufactured using micromechanical technology have the advantages of small size, light weight, low cost, high reliability, and mass production, and can be widely used in aviation, aerospace, weapons, automobiles, etc. , medical, consumer electronics and other fields have huge market potential and have become an important direction for the development of inertial gyroscopes. At present, micro-mechanical gyroscopes of various structures emerge in endlessly in the world, and their common feature is that they have two vibration directions perpendicular to each other, that is, the vibration excitation direction and the detection vibration direction caused by Corio...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the detection electrodes of these structures need to make two separate electrodes on the side wall of the detection beam, which will lead to a complicated electrode manufacturing process, and the unbalanced positive and negative electrodes have a great influence on the zero bias of the gyroscope.

The detection vibration of these structures has pressure film damping, which makes the quality factor very low, which limits the improvement of the sensitivity of the micromachined gyroscope.
