چکیده
Nonlinear micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) resonators open new opportunities in sensing and signal manipulation compared to their linear counterparts by enabling frequency tuning increased bandwidth. Here, we design, fabricate study drumhead exhibiting strongly nonlinear dynamics develop a reduced order model (ROM) capture response accurately. The undergo electrostatically-mediated thermoelastic buckling, which tunes natural from 4.7 11.3 MHz, factor of 2.4× tunability. Moreover, the imposed buckling switches nonlinearity between purely stiffening, softening, even softening-to-stiffening. Accessing these exotic requires precise control temperature DC electrostatic forces near resonator’s critical-buckling point. To explain observed tunability, one-dimensional physics-based ROM that predicts fundamental bending mode resonators. captures dynamic effects internal stresses resulting three sources: residual fabrication process, mismatch thermal expansion constituent layers, lastly, applied forces. novel developed this article not only replicates tunability (within 5.5 % error) responses states critical but also provides insightful intuition on interplay among softening is invaluable for design similar devices. This remarkable large are valuable features on-chip acoustic devices broad applications such as manipulation, filtering, MEMS waveguides.

Microelectronic mechanical (MEM) beam resonators with high quality factors are always preferred in practical applications. As one of the damping sources, thermoelastic damping (TED) caused by irreversible heat flows is usually considered as an upper limit of the overall damping effect. A new method is proposed in this work to compensate TED by taking advantage of the piezoresistive effect. Such...

The effects of geometry on the energy dissipation induced by thermoelastic damping in MEMS resonators are investigated numerically using a finite element formulation.

متن کاملAnalysis of Nonlinear Thermoelastic Dissipation in Euler-Bernoulli Beam Resonators
The linear theory of thermoelastic damping (TED) has been extensively developed over the past eight decades, but relatively little is known about the different types of nonlinearities that are associated with this fundamental mechanism of material damping. Here, we initiate the study of a dissipative nonlinearity (also called thermomechanical nonlinearity) whose origins reside at the heart of t...
