Abstract

The invention provides a flexible resistance-type MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) temperature sensor array and a preparation method thereof. The sensor array comprises a fixed substrate, a flexible substrate film, a temperature sensitive film, sensor electrodes, a flexible covering layer and electrical conductors. A preparation method for the sensor array comprises the following steps of forming a metal sacrificial layer on the upper surface of a fixed substrate material in a sputtering or thermal evaporation manner, performing spin coating on the sacrificial layer with PI (polyimide), preparing the temperature sensitive film, preparing sensor electrode arrays, preparing the covering layer PI film, imaging the covering layer PI film, peeling off flexible sensors and welding the electrical conductors. The sensor array provided by the invention has biocompatibility, stronger mechanical property, high-temperature resistance, high temperature impact resistance and higher ultrasonic propagation speed. Sizes and shapes of the sensitive film and sensor electrode points can be controlled by exposure, and the temperature field distribution of a skin surface can be measured in real time. The preparation method for the sensor array is simple and reliable and low in cost, and can be realized by adopting a micromachining process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a temperature sensor array in the field of medical engineering, in particular to a flexible resistive MEMS temperature sensor array and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Over the past few decades, high-energy focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been extensively studied for thermal ablation of tumor cells. Volume ultrasound is more effective in expanding the tumor resection area per ultrasound, but the resulting temperature rise of the skin and fat layer limits the efficiency of tumor cell resection. In order to avoid thermal damage to the skin and fat layer during ultrasonic resection of tumor cells, it is necessary to obtain the temperature field distribution on the surface of the skin layer. The flexible temperature sensor array can be bent to the same curvature as the skin, directly attached to the skin surface, and measures the temperature field distribution of the skin surface, which is an effective wa...
