Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of ceramic piezoresistive sensor cores, and particularly relates to a ceramic-based nanometer film pressure core and a manufacturing method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] In a high-voltage power system, from a large generator at a power generation end, to a transformer, a high-voltage switch cabinet in a power transmission network, and to various high-voltage devices at a power consumption end, all are accompanied by high voltage and strong electric field during operation. Taking a 110kV and above power transmission line as an example, its operating voltage is much higher than that of ordinary electrical equipment, which requires the sensor to not only accurately measure current, voltage, temperature and other parameters, but also to have extremely high insulation strength to prevent breakdown in a high-voltage environment. Once the sensor insulation fails, it may cause serious faults such as line short circuit and tripping, leading to large-area power outage accidents and causing great losses to social production and life.

[0003] A traditional ceramic piezoresistive sensor is based on a ceramic piezoresistive core formed by a printed circuit layer on the ceramic, which has the disadvantage of low measurement accuracy. The circuit layer is a printed film layer, which leads to the fact that the core accuracy has reached the limit of 0.5%FS, and the temperature drift performance is poor. In addition, under the condition of complex stress and uneven electric field distribution, stress concentration phenomenon is prone to occur at the connection parts of the pressure sensitive element, the insulating layer and the electrode.

[0060] 1.

The zirconia ceramic obtained by doping rare earth oxides has high strength and impact resistance, and because the thermal expansion coefficient is close to that of the metal film layer, the temperature drift can be greatly reduced.

[0061] 2. To solve the compatibility of the ceramic substrate and the composite nano thin film, the interface transition layer of the present application forms Ti-O-Zr bond with the ceramic substrate, and forms Ti-Al-Ni intermetallic compound with the nickel-chromium layer, solving the problem of insufficient bonding strength of the transition layer with the substrate / function layer.

[0062] 3. Compared with the silicon dioxide protective layer, the protective layer of the present application introduces boron nitride nano-lubricating components, and introduces gallium oxide to strengthen the lattice, which makes the doped silicon dioxide protective layer not only have high wear resistance, but also have good insulation performance.

[0063] 4. The prior art only uses single high-temperature aging, which cannot completely eliminate the stress in the film layer. The present application promotes the interface diffusion of the film layer and the substrate by high-low temperature impact, forming a stable transition zone. Finally, the sensor has a zero point drift ≤0.0080FS% at 200℃, and in some preferred embodiments, the zero point drift is ≤0.007FS%, for example, 0.003~0.007FS%.

[0064] 5. For the high insulation and wide temperature range requirements of high-voltage power systems, the core insulation strength of the present application is ≥2000VAC, and the working temperature range is -40~300℃, which can be stably applied to the pressure monitoring of devices such as generators and high-voltage switch cabinets. Compared with the existing sensor, the applicable scene is wider, and the reliability is higher. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0128] A packaging cover (40) is covered on the ceramic-based nanometer thin film pressure core (10);

[0129] A conductive elastic needle (50) is installed on the packaging cover (40), and the lower end is in contact with the electrode of the ceramic-based nanometer thin film pressure core (10);

[0130] An air pipe (60) penetrates through the packaging cover (40), and is used for realizing air pressure balance between the inside of the sensor and the outside (if it is an absolute pressure sensor, it can also be used for vacuum sealing and other related functions);

[0131] A riveting sealing (70) is used for riveting the top of the packaging cover (40), and is used for fixing the air pipe (60), the conductive elastic needle (50) and other components on the packaging cover (40).

[0132] Test Example

[0133] (1) Insulation performance test: a ZC75 insulation resistance tester (Zhongce Instrument) is used, the positive electrode of the tester is connected with the conductive elastic needle, the negative electrode of the tester is connected with the pressure introduction nozzle shell, an alternating voltage of 2000VAC and a frequency of 50Hz are applied for 1min, and whether breakdown or flashover phenomenon occurs is observed;

[0134] (2) Temperature drift test: after the above insulation performance test, the zero point drift of the sensor is tested according to the standard JJG860-2015 at 25℃ and 200℃ respectively, and the test pressure range is 0~4MPa;

[0135] Zero point drift refers to the phenomenon that the output signal (in mV in this test) of the pressure sensor changes with the change of the ambient temperature under the condition that the pressure remains constant (usually 0% of the full scale, i.e. no pressure input); zero point drift (%FS / ℃)=(zero point value at 200℃-zero point value at 25℃) / [(full point value at 25℃-zero point value at 25℃)×(200℃-25℃)]×100%;

[0136] The test results are shown in Table 1 Sensor Test Data Table, and the data in the table are the average values of three measurements under 10VDC power supply.

[0137]

[0138] It should be noted in connection with the data in Table 1 that:

[0139] In Example 5, only aging without high-low temperature impact, the internal stress of the film layer is not completely eliminated, the interface bonding strength is reduced, the residual stress is released when the temperature changes, resulting in a large temperature drift;

[0140] In Example 6, the interface transition layer has slightly lower bonding strength with the ceramic substrate, and there are small gaps in the interface, resulting in slight fluctuations in the insulation value;

[0141] The ceramic substrate of Comparative Example 1 does not contain Y2O3, resulting in unstable substrate crystal form, low interface bonding strength, easy local peeling of the interface transition layer, and serious temperature influence on the piezoresistive characteristics, with a sharp increase in drift;

[0142] In Comparative Example 2, Ga2O3 is not added in the silica protective layer, resulting in many lattice defects in the protective layer, uneven shrinkage / expansion of the protective layer when the temperature changes, random extrusion stress on the composite nanometer film layer, and a sharp fluctuation in the piezoresistive signal, with a maximum drift value.

[0143] Unless otherwise specified, the various raw materials, reagents, instruments and equipment used in the present application can be purchased from the market or prepared by existing methods. The above specific examples further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present application. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
