متن کاملA Micromachined Wireless Gamma Radiation Detector Using Bulk Metal Conversion Layers
This paper reports a micromachined wireless gamma radiation sensor. The gas-based detector is comprised of a patterned bulk metal conversion layer assembled on top of a pair of thin-film copper electrodes electroplated on a glass substrate. The metal layer converts gamma radiation into photoelectrons, which ionize the sensing gas. A bias between the electrodes creates an electric field that acc...

متن کاملProperties of InGaAs/InP thermoelectric and surface bulk micromachined infrared sensors
We present a concept for the realization of InGaAs/InP micromachined thermoelectric sensors. The advantages of InGaAs lattice matched to InP combine perfectly for this application. The high selectivity of wet chemical etching of InP against InGaAs is ideally suited for surface bulk micromachining. Thermoelectric InGaAs sensors profit from the high thermal resistivity combined with high electric...
