Propagation of guided Lamb waves in bonded specimens using piezoelectric wafer active sensors
The nondestructive evaluation (NDE) of adhesively bonded structures is a complex process. Earlier work has confirmed that ultrasonic waves are influenced by the properties of the material in which they travel. Acousto-ultrasonic methods have been widely used by previous researchers to generate ultrasonic waves in plates and bonded structures for flaw detection, visualization, and measurements o...
متن کاملDisbond detection in adhesively-bonded structures using piezoelectric wafer active sensors
Adhesively bonded joints between metallic and composite plates are gaining increasing acceptance in safety critical applications such as automotive and aerospace structures. Lamb wave methods have considerable potential for the inspection of adhesive joints and assemblies for two reasons: they do not require direct access to the bond region, and they are much more amenable to rapid scanning tha...
متن کاملSiGe HBTs on bonded wafer substrates
Silicon germanium (SiGe) heterojunction transistors have been fabricated on bonded wafer, silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates. The devices have application in low power, radio-frequency electronics. The bonded wafer substrates incorporate poly-Si filled, deep trenches for isolation. A novel selective and non-selective low pressure chemical vapour deposition (LPCVD) growth process was used for...
متن کاملHigh Frequency Quartz Micro Balances: A Promising Path to Enhanced Sensitivity of Gravimetric Sensors
An array of 50 MHz quartz microbalances (QMBs) coated with a dendronized polymer was used to detect small amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the gas phase. The results were compared to those obtained with the commonly used 10 MHz QMBs. The 50 MHz QMBs proved to be a powerful tool for the detection of VOCs in the gas phase; therefore, they represent a promising alternative to the mu...
متن کاملWafer-Level Vacuum Packaging of Smart Sensors
The reach and impact of the Internet of Things will depend on the availability of low-cost, smart sensors-"low cost" for ubiquitous presence, and "smart" for connectivity and autonomy. By using wafer-level processes not only for the smart sensor fabrication and integration, but also for packaging, we can further greatly reduce the cost of sensor components and systems as well as further decreas...
