Novel micro-accelerometer based on mesoscopic piezoresistive effect

Abstract

A novel micro-accelerometer based on the mesoscopic piezoresistive effect is mainly and structurally composed of a bonding substrate, a sensitive mass block, a supporting frame body, resonant tunneling devices and combined beams. Each resonant tunneling deice is composed of a resonant tunneling material thin film layer, a resonant tunneling device positive pole and a resonant tunneling device negative pole. Each combined beam is composed of a detection beam, a connection block and a transverse buffering beam. The bonding substrate serves as a carrier, the supporting frame body is bonded on the bonding substrate, the center position of each of the four edges of the supporting frame body is connected with one combined beam, one combined beam is connected to the center position of each of the four edges of the sensitive mass block, the other sides of the combined beams are connected with the supporting frame body, and each combined beam is composed of the detection beam, the connection block and the transverse buffering beam. Each resonant tunneling material thin film layer is of a multi-potential-barrier voltage-sensitive structure and can enable the sensitivity of a silicon piezoresistive device to be improved by 1-2 orders of magnitude. The novel micro-accelerometer based on the mesoscopic piezoresistive effect is reasonable and compact in structure, convenient to detect, high in precision, good in reliability and suitable for miniaturization, and has strong lateral resistance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the research field of key components of micro-inertial navigation, in particular to a micro-accelerometer with anti-lateral interference based on resonance tunneling effect. Background technique [0002] The micromechanical accelerometer is a kind of accelerometer with small size, low power consumption and mass production. It is widely used in the military and civil fields to test acceleration, vibration and overload signals. In addition, it is also used to measure the attitude of space moving objects. One of the key components of control and control, has been highly valued by the aerospace field. [0003] Traditional micro accelerometers can be divided into: capacitive, piezoresistive, tunnel effect, piezoelectric, etc. according to the sensitive principle. Among them, the common features of the first two are: the improvement of sensitivity depends on the reduction of structural stiffness, high sensitivity is accompanied by s...
