Piezoelectric Sensor: Design, Components and Benefits

Aaditya Sharma, Gaurav Bisht, Harsh Singh

Abstract


The design, development, and characterization of wideband piezoelectric vibration microsensors are announced. Models were created in a commercial foundry handle. The complete thickness of the handle wafer was utilized to carve the confirmation mass of the gadget, driving to tall affectability at a diminished chip zone. A lean layer of aluminum nitride was utilized for detecting the relocations of the proof-mass. A persistent layer was utilized for the gadget structure to thrust undesired modes to tall frequencies. Sensors with diverse geometries were outlined and created. Explanatory and limited component investigations were conducted to think about gadget reaction. A protuberance component demonstrated was created for the piezoelectric vibration sensor and utilized for the clamor modeling of the total sensor framework. Different execution measurements for the gadgets were characterized tentatively. Created models showed sensitivity heights of 350 mV/g at resonance frequencies greater than 10 kHz.
