Book Synopsis The Design and Implementation of Parametrically Amplified Lorentz Force MEMS Magnetometers by : Matthew Julian Thompson
Download or read book The Design and Implementation of Parametrically Amplified Lorentz Force MEMS Magnetometers written by Matthew Julian Thompson and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation has two distinct goals. The first is to fabricate a MEMS Lorentz force navigation magnetometer using the same techniques as gyroscopes and accelerometers allowing for construction of a single chip inertial measurement unit. The second is to determine if parametric amplification has commercial benefits or if it is just an academic curiosity. Previous Lorentz force magnetometers have used non-standard fabrication steps, consume too much power or lack the required sensitivity to be competitive. To increase the sensitivity and the competitiveness of Lorentz force magnetometers, parametric amplification is performed. Three Lorentz force magnetometers were studied. The first was a Z-axis parametrically amplified magnetometer with a 34 nT/rt-Hz, 0.3 degrees/rt-Hz resolution operated in a vacuum. The second was a Z-axis parametrically amplified magnetometer with a resolution of 87 nT/rt-Hz, 0.78 degrees/rt-Hz operated at 1 atm. And the third is a 3-axis magnetometer with a resolution of 2.6 nT/rt-Hz, 0.02 degrees/rt-Hz operated in a vacuum. Parametric amplification was shown to increase the magnetic flux sensitivity up to 82.5-fold and improve the system wide signal to noise ratio of the sensor up to 10-fold.
Book Synopsis Sensitivity Enhancement of Resonant MEMS Magnetometers Using Internal Thermal-piezoresistive Amplification by : Varun Kumar
Download or read book Sensitivity Enhancement of Resonant MEMS Magnetometers Using Internal Thermal-piezoresistive Amplification written by Varun Kumar and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents, for the first time, sensitivity enhancement of MEMS resonant magnetometers using the thermal-piezoresistive quality factor (Q) amplification effect in silicon microstructures. The design and optimization process of the device are reviewed and the constraints for an industrial MEMS technology (process and fabrication) are mastered. Lorentz force transduction principle and piezoresistive sensing are analyzed with the goal of designing a suspended micro-structure to detect magnetic fields in single axis. An electromechanical model of the magnetic sensor is presented along with the simulation results of the predicted model in MATLAB. Measurements show that the results are in good agreement with the simulated electrical model of the magnetometer.
Book Synopsis MEMS Lorentz Force Magnetometers by : Cesare Buffa
Download or read book MEMS Lorentz Force Magnetometers written by Cesare Buffa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-04 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with compasses for consumer applications realized in MEMS technology, to support location-based and orientation-based services in addition to ‘traditional’ functionalities based on navigation. Navigation is becoming a must-have feature in portable devices and the presence of a compass also makes location-based augmented reality emerge, where a street map or a camera image could be overlaid with highly detailed information about what is in front of the user. To make these features possible both industries and scientific research focus on three axis magnetometers. The author describes a full path from specifications (driven by customers’ needs/desires) to prototype and preparing the way to industrialization and commercialization. The presentation includes an overview of all the major steps of this research and development process, highlighting critical points and potential pitfalls, as well as how to forecast or mitigate them. Coverage includes system design, specifications fulfillment, design strategy and project development methodology, in addition to traditional topics such as microelectronics design, sensor design, development of an experimental setup and characterization. The author uses a practical approach, including pragmatic guidelines and design choices, while maintaining focus on the final target, prototyping in the direction of industrialization and mass production.

Book Synopsis Microsystem Design by : Stephen D. Senturia
Download or read book Microsystem Design written by Stephen D. Senturia and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-12-20 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a real pleasure to write the Foreword for this book, both because I have known and respected its author for many years and because I expect this book’s publication will mark an important milestone in the continuing worldwide development of microsystems. By bringing together all aspects of microsystem design, it can be expected to facilitate the training of not only a new generation of engineers, but perhaps a whole new type of engineer – one capable of addressing the complex range of problems involved in reducing entire systems to the micro- and nano-domains. This book breaks down disciplinary barriers to set the stage for systems we do not even dream of today. Microsystems have a long history, dating back to the earliest days of mic- electronics. While integrated circuits developed in the early 1960s, a number of laboratories worked to use the same technology base to form integrated sensors. The idea was to reduce cost and perhaps put the sensors and circuits together on the same chip. By the late-60s, integrated MOS-photodiode arrays had been developed for visible imaging, and silicon etching was being used to create thin diaphragms that could convert pressure into an electrical signal. By 1970, selective anisotropic etching was being used for diaphragm formation, retaining a thick silicon rim to absorb package-induced stresses. Impurity- and electrochemically-based etch-stops soon emerged, and "bulk micromachining" came into its own.
Book Synopsis Nanostructure Science and Technology by : Richard W. Siegel
Download or read book Nanostructure Science and Technology written by Richard W. Siegel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1999-09-30 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timely information on scientific and engineering developments occurring in laboratories around the world provides critical input to maintaining the economic and technological strength of the United States. Moreover, sharing this information quickly with other countries can greatly enhance the productivity of scientists and engineers. These are some of the reasons why the National Science Foundation (NSF) has been involved in funding science and technology assessments comparing the United States and foreign countries since the early 1980s. A substantial number of these studies have been conducted by the World Technology Evaluation Center (WTEC) managed by Loyola College through a cooperative agreement with NSF. The National Science and Technology Council (NSTC), Committee on Technology's Interagency Working Group on NanoScience, Engineering and Technology (CT/IWGN) worked with WTEC to develop the scope of this Nanostucture Science and Technology report in an effort to develop a baseline of understanding for how to strategically make Federal nanoscale R&D investments in the coming years. The purpose of the NSTC/WTEC activity is to assess R&D efforts in other countries in specific areas of technology, to compare these efforts and their results to U. S. research in the same areas, and to identify opportunities for international collaboration in precompetitive research. Many U. S. organizations support substantial data gathering and analysis efforts focusing on nations such as Japan. But often the results of these studies are not widely available. At the same time, government and privately sponsored studies that are in the public domain tend to be "input" studies.

Book Synopsis Fundamentals and Frontiers of the Josephson Effect by : Francesco Tafuri
Download or read book Fundamentals and Frontiers of the Josephson Effect written by Francesco Tafuri and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 859 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date description of the Josephson effect, a topic of never-ending interest in both fundamental and applied physics. In this volume, world-renowned experts present the unique aspects of the physics of the Josephson effect, resulting from the use of new materials, of hybrid architectures and from the possibility of realizing nanoscale junctions. These new experimental capabilities lead to systems where novel coherent phenomena and transport processes emerge. All this is of great relevance and impact, especially when combined with the didactic approach of the book. The reader will benefit from a general and modern view of coherent phenomena in weakly-coupled superconductors on a macroscopic scale. Topics that have been only recently discussed in specialized papers and in short reviews are described here for the first time and organized in a general framework. An important section of the book is also devoted to applications, with focus on long-term, future applications. In addition to a significant number of illustrations, the book includes numerous tables for comparative studies on technical aspects.
Download or read book Mars written by Viorel Badescu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-07 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: th th Mars, the Red Planet, fourth planet from the Sun, forever linked with 19 and 20 Century fantasy of a bellicose, intelligent Martian civilization. The romance and excitement of that fiction remains today, even as technologically sophisticated - botic orbiters, landers, and rovers seek to unveil Mars’ secrets; but so far, they have yet to find evidence of life. The aura of excitement, though, is justified for another reason: Mars is a very special place. It is the only planetary surface in the Solar System where humans, once free from the bounds of Earth, might hope to establish habitable, self-sufficient colonies. Endowed with an insatiable drive, focused motivation, and a keen sense of - ploration and adventure, humans will undergo the extremes of physical hardship and danger to push the envelope, to do what has not yet been done. Because of their very nature, there is little doubt that humans will in fact conquer Mars. But even earth-bound extremes, such those experienced by the early polar explorers, may seem like a walk in the park compared to future experiences on Mars.

Book Synopsis Measuring Current, Voltage and Power by : K. Iwansson
Download or read book Measuring Current, Voltage and Power written by K. Iwansson and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1999-06-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authoritative new book focuses on recent developments in the instrumentation for sending voltages and currents. It covers new trends and challenges in the field, such as measurements of biocurrents, the increased speed of the components for data taking, testing of computers and integrated circuits where the measurement of rapid voltage and current variations on a very small geometrical scale is necessary. The first chapter concentrates on recent methods to sense voltages and currents, while the rest of the book investigates the applied side, covering for instance electrical power and energy measurements. The main purpose of this volume is to illustrate commonly employed techniques rather than track the scientific evolution and merits and therefore mainly covers patent literature aimed at industrial applications. It is an exciting addition, justifying the series' claim to cover state-of-the-art developments in both the applied and theoretical fields of sensors and actuators. The measurement of voltages and currents is a common task in the field of electricity and electronics. From a technical point of view it is useful to identify schematically different steps of such a measurement. In a first step a voltage or a current is sensed, intermediate steps such as amplification, transmission and further treatment may follow to yield the result in the final step. Today in most cases microprocessors perform the final steps of such measurements. Analog-to digital converters digitise a voltage that is proportional to the value to be measured and a processor performs further computations and handles the storage and the display of the results. The prerequisite for such measurements are sensors or transducers that respond in a known way to the voltage or current to be measured. The emphasis of this book is put on recent developments of the instrumentation for sensing voltages and currents. Aside from the general trend towards smaller, cheaper and more reliable instrumentation, new demands have arisen. New applications, like measurements of biocurrents, ask for higher sensitivities. Computers and integrated circuits pose new challenges. To exploit the increased speed of the components for data taking, suitable sensors are required. The accuracy that can be achieved depends more than ever on the first step, the acquisition of the raw data. The influence of the measurement process on the results becomes more crucial. Testing of integrated circuits themselves is a completely new application. For such tests one has to measure rapid voltage and current variations on very small geometrical scales. Here, as well as in the traditional high voltage applications, contactless measurements play an important role. The organisation of this book is as follows: In the first chapter different methods to sense voltages and currents are described. For the sake of completeness most commonly used methods are mentioned, we concentrate, however, on those developed recently. The chapters address the subject from the side of different applications in which voltages and currents are sensed. Since the main purpose of this publication is to illustrate commonly employed techniques rather than to track the scientific evolution and merits in particular fields, in general those publications that illustrate a particular measurement principle best have been cited. The citation of a particular reference does therefore not imply that this is the first or most pertinent publication in the respective field.
