Problems solved by technology

There is a rectangular silicon micro-cantilever vibration sensor based on MEMS technology to measure liquid density. Under the conditions of high temperature 150°C and high pressure 68MPa, the density measurement accuracy is ±1%. However, since the silicon micro-cantilever has a rectangular structure, As a result, its sensitivity is not high; at the same time, due to the use of electromagnetic solenoids as the excitation device, the packaged sensor has a large volume

Abstract

The invention provides a capacitance micro-machining ultrasonic sensor for measuring density and a production method thereof. The capacitance micro-machining ultrasonic sensor comprises a monocrystalline silicon substrate, a cavity formed by corrosion arranged on the monocrystalline silicon substrate, a first silica thin layer arranged on the upper end surface of the monocrystalline silicon substrate and sealing the cavity, a metal electrode layer formed by sputtering on the silica thin layer, and a silicon nitride thin layer and a second silica thin layer formed by successively etching on the metal electrode layer. The sensor disclosed herein has the characteristics of insulation, corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, and can guarantee the reliability of CMUT in different measurement environments and the measurement precision.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical fields of MEMS technology and liquid physical parameter testing, in particular to a capacitive micromachining ultrasonic sensor for density measurement and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the liquid density sensors with mature technology and widely used in actual measurement mainly include: vibration type, radioisotope type, buoyancy type, static pressure type, gravity type, sound velocity type, etc. These traditional density sensors all have a common defect, that is, they cannot satisfy online measurement. When measuring the liquid density, it is necessary to extract the sample first and then measure it offline. However, due to the differences in temperature and pressure between the test environment and the actual working conditions, there will be a large error between the measured value of the density and the measured value of the actual environment. In addition, traditio...
