Problems solved by technology

The process of this manufacturing method is more complicated, the manufacturing cost is higher, and the flexibility is not strong.
The main reason is that the silicon-glass anode bonding process must be carried out at a high voltage of 1000-1200V and a high temperature of 300-400 degrees Celsius. layer to release the mass block, making the process more complicated
And the processing equipment cost of ICPDRIE process is higher
In addition, the above-mentioned silicon-glass anode bonding process limits the suspended mass to silicon material, because the density of silicon is 2.7g / cm 3 Smaller, compared to metals such as nickel, copper, gold and other masses, the detection sensitivity of silicon micro accelerometers is lower

Abstract

The invention relates to a static suspension six-axis micro accelerometer and a manufacturing method thereof. The micro accelerometer has a sandwich type three-layer bonding structure which consists of a lower stator, a suspension mass block and an upper stator, wherein in the upper stator in the lower stator, glass is used as a substrate; the suspension mass block is positioned in a bonding cavity between the upper stator and the lower stator; the suspension mass block is positioned in the center of the bonding cavity and does not contact the upper stator or the lower stator to translate along the X axis, Y axis and Z axis or rotate on the X axis, Y axis and Z axis; and the center of the suspension mass block is an original point O of an inertia coordinate system OXYZ, and the OZ direction is perpendicular to a plane on which the upper stator and the lower stator are positioned. The static suspension micro accelerometer which is provided with the square mass block, has a six-axis acceleration measuring function and is high in sensitivity is manufactured on the basis of a non-silicon micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) process. The method is easy, convenient, flexible and low inmanufacturing cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device and a method in the technical field of micro-electromechanical systems, in particular to an electrostatic levitation six-axis micro-accelerometer and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] The electrostatic suspension micro-acceleration sensor is different from the general micro-mechanical acceleration sensor with support beams. It adopts the electrostatic suspension method so that there is no mechanical connection between the detection mass and the upper and lower stators, which greatly reduces the thermal noise of the sensor and improves the resolution and accuracy of the accelerometer. sensitivity. It is manufactured by MEMS micro-machining technology, and uses micro-capacitance detection technology to measure the changing capacitance between the suspended mass and the electrode, and obtains the three-axis acceleration and three-axis angular acceleration after signal processing.
