Micromachined Resonant Frequency Tuning Unit for Torsional Resonator
Achieving the desired resonant frequency of resonators has been an important issue, since it determines their performance. This paper presents the design and analysis of two concepts for the resonant frequency tuning of resonators. The proposed methods are based on the stiffness alteration of the springs by geometrical modification (shaft-widening) or by mechanical restriction (shaft-holding) u...
متن کاملStructural design and experimental characterization of torsional micromachined gyroscopes with non-resonant drive mode
This paper reports a novel gimbal-type torsional micromachined gyroscope with a non-resonant actuation scheme. The design concept is based on employing a 2 degrees-of-freedom (2-DOF) drive-mode oscillator comprising a sensing plate suspended inside two gimbals. By utilizing dynamic amplification of torsional oscillations in the drive mode instead of resonance, large oscillation amplitudes of th...
متن کاملLow-loss tuning circuits for frequency-tunable small resonant antennas
Minimization of power loss in the tuning circuits of frequency-tunable small resonant antennas, such as microstrip patches, is studied. First, the frequency shift and the associated power loss in certain tuning circuits are theoretically calculated based on approximate circuit models of fairly narrow-band resonant antennas. By investigating the ratio of frequency shift and loss, an optimal conf...
متن کاملFrequency-tuning for control of parametrically resonant mass sensors
Parametric resonance based mass sensing leads to increased sensitivity over other resonant methods. In this work, we present a frequency-tuning approach to measure mass change in an ultra-sensitive mass sensor. This scheme drives the oscillator using an electrical signal with fixed frequency and tunes the parametric resonance frequency to match the driving frequency by feeding back a dc offset ...
متن کاملAtomic resolution ultrafast scanning tunneling microscope with scan rate breaking the resonant frequency of a quartz tuning fork resonator.
We present an ultra-fast scanning tunneling microscope with atomic resolution at 26 kHz scan rate which surpasses the resonant frequency of the quartz tuning fork resonator used as the fast scan actuator. The main improvements employed in achieving this new record are (1) fully low voltage design (2) independent scan control and data acquisition, where the tuning fork (carrying a tip) is blindl...
