MEMS resonators integrated with CMOS feedback networks have a potentially wide field of applications as oscillator circuits in communications and sensor systems. However, considerable advancements to this nascent technology are required to realize such a vision. We present a configurable CMOS chip which facilitates the development of MEMS-referenced oscillators, especially for timing and sensing applications...
We describe the first experimental investigation of pressure-dependent resonant motions in high-frequency circular drumhead resonators based on atomically-thin molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), which demonstrate attractive performance and potential for pressure sensing. Circular bilayer and trilayer MoS2 membrane resonators with diameter of ∼1.8μm are studied in the pressure range of ∼10mTorr to ∼400Torr...
This paper presents a digital closed loop control method for the sense mode of a mode-matching MEMS vibratory gyroscope. The sense closed loop system reported in our previous work is relatively complex and unreliable due to the existence of notch filter. In this work, a more simple and robust control system is realized with the help of mode-matching control. With a tuning voltage automatically applied...
Silicon carbide (SiC) is a leading material for both semiconductor devices and harsh environment micro- and nano-electromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS) due to a combination of exceptional electrical, mechanical and chemical properties. SiC is also an excellent structural material for micromechanical transducers because of its high Young's modulus and mechanical strength. Suspended thin film diaphragms...
