Journal ArticleDOI
A Resonant Microaccelerometer With High Sensitivity Operating in an Oscillating Circuit
Claudia Comi,Alberto Corigliano,Giacomo Langfelder,Antonio Francesco Longoni,Alessandro Tocchio,Barbara Simoni +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a micromachined uniaxial silicon resonant accelerometer characterized by a high sensitivity and very small dimensions is presented, which is based on the frequency variations of two resonating beams coupled to a proof mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monte carlo simulation of micro-cracking in polysilicon MEMS exposed to shocks
TL;DR: In this article, the authors exploit a multi-scale framework to model the shock-induced failure of polysilicon micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), and study the impact of uncertainties at polycrystal length-scale on the results.
Patent
Microelectromechanical z-axis detection structure with low thermal drifts
TL;DR: In this paper, the first fixed-electrode arrangement is set on a substrate having a top surface, and a sensing mass, extending in a plane and suspended above the substrate, is used to detect a quantity along an axis orthogonal to the plane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two-scale simulation of drop-induced failure of polysilicon MEMS sensors.
TL;DR: In this article, an industrially-oriented two-scale approach is provided to model the drop-induced brittle failure of polysilicon MEMS sensors, which is validated against full three-scale Monte-Carlo simulations.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A high sensitivity uniaxial resonant accelerometer
Claudia Comi,Alberto Corigliano,Giacomo Langfelder,Antonio Francesco Longoni,Alessandro Tocchio,Barbara Simoni +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new micro-machined uniaxial silicon resonant accelerometer characterized by a high sensitivity is presented, where the geometrical setting is analytically optimized in order to improve the sensitivity and linearity of the sensor.
