[0066] A high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 is prepared by the above steps. A data acquisition system and a computer are used to obtain the temperature and resistance signals of the K-type thermocouple and the platinum thin film temperature sensor placed in a tube furnace in real time, so as to test the high-temperature performance of the platinum thin film temperature sensor. The test results are shown in Figure 4 . First, the temperature-resistance variation law of the platinum thin film temperature sensor in a single round of temperature rise and fall from 50℃ to 800℃ is tested. The results are shown in Figure 4 (a). When the temperature is within 50℃ to 800℃, the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor has a temperature rise and fall curve that is relatively coincident, showing a positive resistance temperature coefficient. The single round of temperature-resistance curve of the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor is nonlinearly fitted. The fitting results are shown in Figure 4 (b). The linearity is excellent, and the correlation coefficient R 2 reaches 0.99996.

[0067] In practical applications, the repeatability and high-temperature stability of the high-temperature temperature sensor during temperature cycling are very important. The temperature-resistance variation law of the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor in three rounds from 50℃ to 800℃ is measured. The results are shown in Figure 4 (c). The three rounds of temperature-resistance curves are relatively coincident, indicating that it has good repeatability. By comparison, the upper limit of the temperature measurement in this embodiment is much higher than that of the platinum thin film temperature sensor prepared by the direct writing process reported at present, which has a temperature measurement upper limit of only 500℃. Subsequently, the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor is tested in six rounds of continuous temperature cycling for more than 40 hours, and compared with the K-type thermocouple. The results are shown in Figure 4 (d). It can be clearly seen that the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor has fast response and relatively good dynamic performance.

[0068] The high-temperature stability of the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor is tested, and the resistance drift rate is measured at 500℃, 600℃, 700℃ and 800℃ for 1h respectively. The high-temperature stability test results are shown in Figure 4 (e). The maximum resistance drift rate is only 0.62%, which is better than the polymer precursor ceramic thin film temperature sensor with better oxidation resistance. Finally, the high-temperature dynamic stability of the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor is tested, i.e. four rounds of rapid temperature rise and fall tests are carried out at 500℃ to 600℃, 600℃ to 700℃ and 700℃ to 800℃ respectively. The results are shown in Figure 4(f) shows that the maximum and minimum temperature points of each interval temperature cycle show good consistency, and the maximum resistance change rate is 0.41%. The above test results show that the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor has excellent repeatability and high-temperature stability in the temperature range of 50°C to 800°C.

[0069] The surface micro-morphology of the platinum sensitive grid 2 and the precursor ceramic protective layer 3 is observed and element analyzed by using a scanning electron microscope. The EDS line scanning graph and the SEM magnification graph of the platinum sensitive grid 2 are respectively shown in Figure 5 (a) and 5(b), the porosity of the direct-written platinum sensitive grid 2 is between 16.1% and 19.8%, and the volatilization of the organic solvent in the sintering process is one of the reasons for the generation of the porosity of the platinum sensitive grid 2. In the preparation process of the platinum sensitive grid 2, the existence of appropriate porosity is allowed, and the appropriate porosity will cause the resistance of the platinum sensitive grid 2 to increase, which is helpful to improve the sensitivity of the sensor. The composition of the platinum sensitive grid 2 is analyzed by using a spectrum analyzer, and the result is shown in Figure 5 (c). The atomic composition ratio of C, O and Pt of the platinum sensitive grid 2 is 5.94:2.49:91.57, which shows that the main component of the platinum sensitive grid 2 is platinum, but there is a small amount of impurities. The precursor ceramic protective layer 3 is crucial to the stability improvement of the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor, and the SEM result graph of the precursor ceramic protective layer 3 is shown in Figure 5 (d), the precursor ceramic protective layer 3 has porosity and micro-cracks, which is similar to the typical plasma sprayed YSZ coating morphology. Figure 6 (a) shows the cross-section SEM result graph of the sensor, and the ceramic substrate 1, the platinum sensitive grid 2 and the precursor ceramic protective layer 3 are closely combined with each other. The precursor ceramic protective layer 3 is oxidized after pyrolysis, and the thickness of the oxide layer formed on the surface is about 5.5 μm, and the thickness of the unoxidized part is 13.1 μm. In addition, the thickness of the platinum sensitive grid is about 5 μm, that is, the total thickness of the thin film is less than 25 μm, which can meet the needs of small disturbance and in-situ temperature monitoring of the thin film sensor. The packaging of the platinum thin film temperature sensor by using the precursor ceramic protective layer 3 has the advantage of thin thickness, which can make the temperature measurement of the sensor more accurate, and the response time is shortened, while in the previous research, the packaging thickness of the platinum thin film sensor is often greater than 100 μm.

[0070] The cross-section structure schematic diagram of the sensor is shown in Figure 6(b) shows. The surface TiB2 element of the precursor ceramic protective layer 3 is oxidized to TiO2 and B2O3, and SiCN is oxidized to SiO2, Y2O3 and ZrO2 are stable phases. Therefore, the main components of the surface oxidation layer of the precursor ceramic protective layer 3 are SiO2, B2O3, TiO2, Y2O3 and ZrO2, and the main components of the unoxidized precursor ceramic protective layer 3 are SiCN, TiB2, Y2O3 and ZrO2. Y2O3 and ZrO2 can exist stably at high temperatures, improving the stability and sintering resistance of the precursor ceramic protective layer 3. The glass phase SiO2 and B2O3 have fluidity at high temperatures, which can effectively fill the cracks and pores of the protective layer and prevent further oxidation of the inside, thereby improving the oxidation resistance of the protective layer. In addition, since the precursor ceramic protective layer 3 is prepared based on the liquid phase one-step forming process, it effectively fills the pores of the platinum sensitive grid 2, thereby anchoring the platinum particles to reduce their high-temperature thermal volatilization and agglomeration.

[0071] Comparative Example

[0072] The difference between the comparative example of the present application and example 1 is that the precursor ceramic protective layer 3 is not directly written and pyrolyzed, that is, steps S4 and S5 are not performed, and the rest of the operations are the same as example 1. A high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor without a precursor ceramic protective layer 3 is prepared, and its structure is as shown in Figure 7 (a). Its three-round temperature resistance change law at 50-800°C is measured, and the results are shown in Figure 7 (b). The resistance fluctuation is obvious, and the coincidence degree of the three-round temperature resistance curve is low, indicating that the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor without a precursor ceramic protective layer 3 has poor repeatability when measuring temperature. The reason for its poor repeatability is that the platinum sensitive grid 2 is directly exposed to a high-temperature environment, which has problems such as film agglomeration and thermal volatilization, and under the protection of the precursor ceramic protective layer 3, the sensor exhibits excellent stability.

[0073] Example 2

[0074] Reference Figure 8 , example 2 and example 1 use similar sensor structures, the difference is that the ceramic substrate 1 of example 2 can be a silicon nitride bearing with curved surface characteristics, and in addition, when performing step S2, the four pins of the platinum sensitive grid 2 are led to the bearing end face through the five-axis weissenberg direct writing platform. The rest of the operations are the same as example 1. The aviation bearing is one of the most important parts of the aero-engine, and the temperature monitoring of the aviation bearing helps to diagnose the early failure and optimize the structure of the bearing; the existing sensors installed by digging holes, patch type sensors and magnetron sputtering sensors have problems such as difficulty in conforming to curved surfaces and damaging installation. The present application can combine four / five-axis motion platform to prepare platinum thin film temperature sensor in situ and non-destructively on curved surface parts. The multi-round temperature test result graph of the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor based on direct writing in example 2 is as followsFigure 9 The results show that the in-situ temperature monitoring on the surface of the silicon nitride bearing can be achieved from 50 to 800 DEG C. The advantages of the high-temperature platinum thin film temperature sensor prepared based on the direct writing technology are shown, and it is expected to break through the bottleneck problems such as conformal difficulty, single material and high cost caused by the current screen printing and magnetron sputtering process for preparing thin film temperature sensors.
