2014

An integrated sensing module capable of operating at high temperatures would be beneficial to a number of industrial applications, such as automotive industries, aerospace systems, industrial turbines and deep-well drilling telemetric systems. Consider industrial turbines as an example. It is important to monitor a variety of physical parameters within the hot sections of the turbines in order to increase turbine efficiency, reliability and to reduce pollution. In addition, real-time monitoring can help to detect and predict the failures of critical components in a timely fashion to...

Finite Element Analysis of the Effects of Package Induced Stress on Micromechanical Resonator Temperature Stability

2015

Vacuum encapsulation of RF disk and beam resonators is often needed to maintain high quality factor and frequency stability. Conventionally, this is performed at the wafer level by anodic, eutectic, fusion, or glass frit bonding. After wafer dicing, packaging proceeds with die attach to the package substrate and plastic over molding. This process leads to many contacts between materials of different coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) resulting in package-induced stress. The focus of this work is to determine the effect of this stress on the temperature stability of...

BPN799: 3D Printed Microsensors

Jacqueline Elwood
2021

We aim to develop multi-functional, multi-material 3D printed structures for the development of 3D printed microsensors. Using these multi-functional 3D printed structures, we plan to demonstrate simple sensing platforms, such as EtOH sensing for monitoring of food quality, fermentation, or ethanol content in the body, for proof-of-concept in combining conductive materials with commercially available 3D printing materials or 3D printers. Upon further development, this combination could prove critical in resolving the foremost limitations of conventional diagnostic devices (i.e....

Ultra High Frequency Piezoelectric Resonators: Suspension and Elastic Coupling

2004

In this research project, the suspension and elastic coupling of Film Bulk AcousticResonators (FBAR) has been investigated. Individual resonators and small arrays of AlN FBARs have been designed and fabricated in a post-CMOS compatible process. Suspensions based on networks of thin beams did not perform well, but m...
