Problems solved by technology

[0005] At present, the co-vibration spherical vector hydrophone is widely used. Due to its relatively large size, the co-vibration spherical vector hydrophone must drift on the water surface when it is used as a vector array, which is difficult to control. In the Yuan Dynasty, multiple brackets were needed for fixing, and the process was relatively complicated; there is also the bionics-based MEMS piezoresistive vector hydrophone of North University of China, which imitates the lateral line mechanical sensing cells (sound hair cells) of fish to sense Based on the principle of water movement, a structural design of artificial hair cell vector hydrophone is proposed. When the sound wave penetrates the package shell and acts on the central cilium (made of rigid plastic cylinder), the rigid plastic cylinder is the same as the medium particle in which it is located. Vibration, so that the perceived acoustic signal is transmitted to the piezoresistive sensitive unit, so that the stress of the beam changes, and the resistance value of the piezoresistor implanted on it changes. Through the metal wire and the corresponding circuit signal detection unit, it can be Realization of Vector Detection of Underwater Acoustic Signal
The principle of the hot wire MEMS vector hydrophone is different from that of the bionic MEMS piezoresistive vector hydrophone, and the bionic cilia are difficult to manufacture

[0032] Step 1) Design research plan for key parameters of sensitive units

[0033] Under the same sound pressure, the particle vibration velocity caused by water is about 1 / 3000 of that in air, and the sensitivity is much smaller than that of the acoustic sensor in air under the same structural parameters, but because the density of water is much higher than that of air, the unit There are more particles in the volume to transmit heat, so for underwater applications, the sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio of the sensor needs to be improved.

[0034] A MEMS vector hydrophone with a double-cylindrical sensitization structure. The measurement principle is similar to that of anemometers and thermal flowmeters. The sensing part is composed of two parallel platinum wires. The two wires are etched by MEMS processing technology. The end is fixed on the silicon chip electrode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention mainly relates to a novel hot-wire type MEMS vector hydrophone, in particular to a MEMS vector hydrophone with a double cylinder sensitization structure. Background technique [0002] As we all know, sound waves are the only known waves that can travel long distances in water, so the basis for ocean measurement is various underwater acoustic sensors, namely hydrophones. In naval battles, sonar is the five senses of sea combat individuals (various ships and boats). All underwater battlefield reconnaissance must use sonar as the media, which is indispensable. As one of the important components of the sonar system, the underwater acoustic transducer is an important research direction of underwater acoustics. The research on the new underwater acoustic transducer is a key content of the development of naval sonar technology, and its research work has important strategic significance . [0003] To describe a complete sound field, not only th...
