Microcantilever hotplates: Design, fabrication, and characterization
This paper describes design, fabrication, and characterization of microhotplates based on microcantilevers. Six different hotplate cantilever esigns are proposed to investigate heating response time and temperature uniformity. Devices were fabricated and their electrical, thermal, and echanical characteristics were measured. The cantilevers have electrical resistance in the 1 k range, consume 1...
متن کاملFabrication and structural characterization of a resonant frequency PZT microcantilever
The fabrication and structural characterization of a surface micromachined, resonant frequency, Pb(Zr, Ti)O3 (PZT) microcantilever will be presented. The PZT microcantilever was fabricated using surface micromachining techniques, and used a low-stress silicon nitride thin film as the base material for the microcantilever onto which a PZT thin film was incorporated. The PZT thin film is used as ...
متن کاملPreparation and characterization of ZnO microcantilever for nanoactuation
Zinc oxide [ZnO] thin films are deposited using a radiofrequency magnetron sputtering method under room temperature. Its crystalline quality, surface morphology, and composition purity are characterized by X-ray diffraction [XRD], atomic force microscopy [AFM], field-emission scanning electron microscopy [FE-SEM], and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy [EDS]. XRD pattern of the ZnO thin film ...
متن کاملDesign Concepts, Fabrication and Advanced Characterization Methods of Innovative Piezoelectric Sensors Based on ZnO Nanowires
Micro- and nano-scale materials and systems based on zinc oxide are expected to explode in their applications in the electronics and photonics, including nano-arrays of addressable optoelectronic devices and sensors, due to their outstanding properties, including semiconductivity and the presence of a direct bandgap, piezoelectricity, pyroelectricity and biocompatibility. Most applications are ...
متن کاملFabrication and characterization of free-standing thick-film piezoelectric cantilevers for energy harvesting
Research into energy harvesting from ambient vibration sources has attracted great interest over the last few years, largely as a result of advances in the areas of wireless technology and low-power electronics. One of the mechanisms for converting mechanical vibration to electrical energy is the use of piezoelectric materials, typically operating as a cantilever in a bending mode, which genera...
