Displacement Sensing Based on Resonant Frequency Monitoring of Electrostatically Actuated Curved Micro Beams.
The ability to control nonlinear interactions of suspended mechanical structures offers a unique opportunity to engineer rich dynamical behavior that extends the dynamic range and ultimate device sensitivity. We demonstrate a displacement sensing technique based on resonant frequency monitoring of curved, doubly clamped, bistable micromechanical beams interacting with a movable electrode. In th...
متن کاملPull-in Dynamics of Electrostatically-actuated Beams
We report the experimental measurement and simulation of the transient electrostatic pull-in characteristics of microstructural beams fabricated with silicon surface micromachining. Pull-in dynamics are investigated under the influence of compressible squeezed-film damping (CSQFD) for large amplitude motion. A linearized one-dimensional model, using a fitted damping constant, and a two-dimensio...
متن کاملComprehensive Characterization of Electrostatically-Actuated Beams
The entire process of calibrating an electromechanical simulator – identifying relevant parameters, designing and measuring test structures, extracting parameters using detailed electromechanical simulations, and extrapolating the behavior of an actual device – is presented. The simulation model for electrostatically-actuated beams is calibrated to a wide range of electrical and optical test st...
متن کاملSegmented Control of Electrostatically Actuated Bimorph Beams
This research focused on improving the control and sensing of electrostatically actuated, large deflection bimorph beams for optical beam steering. Current iterations of designs utilize a ‘zipper’ beam and have demonstrated large deflection angles. However, with these devices precise control and deflection measurements can be difficult to achieve. Through using segmented bias channels of doped ...
متن کاملOn the Stability of an Electrostatically-Actuated Functionally Graded Magneto-Electro-Elastic Micro-Beams Under Magneto-Electric Conditions
In this paper, the stability of a functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic (FG-MEE) micro-beam under actuation of electrostatic pressure is studied. For this purpose Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and constitutive relations for magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) materials have been used. We have supposed that material properties vary exponentially along the thickness direction of the micro-beam. Gov...
