Flexure-based pointing mechanism with sub-microradian resolution for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna

The Point Ahead Angle Mechanism (PAAM) for ESA’s Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission will compensate the out-of-plane point-ahead angle between three satellites flying 5 million kilometres apart. The PAAM consists of a mirror supported by fle ...

Design of an integrated low-noise read-out system for DNA capacitive sensors

Sandro Carrara, Daniela De Venuto

This paper presents an electronic system for a fast DNA label-less detection. The sensitivity of the capacitive sensor in use is improved by depositing an insulating self-assembled monolayer (SAM) over the golden electrodes. The capacitance shift due to th ...

A high-sensitivity and quasi-linear capacitive sensor for nanomechanical testing applications

Reymond Clavel, Johann Michler, Jean-Marc Breguet, Dongfeng Zhang

The design, modeling, fabrication and characterization of triplate differential capacitive sensors employed in novel on-chip tensile and compression material testing systems are reported, where the capacitive sensors are integrated to measure the load on t ...

Advanced temperature compensation for piezoresistive sensors based on crystallographic orientation

Nico de Rooij, Terunobu Akiyama, Peter Vettiger, Laure Aeschimann

We describe a highly effective method of reducing thermal sensitivity in piezoresistive sensors, in particular silicon cantilevers, by taking advantage of the dependence of the piezoresistive coefficient of silicon on crystallographic orientation. Two simi ...

Development of pressure sensors by powder technology

Peter Ryser, Sebastien Martinerie, Thomas Maeder, Caroline Jacq, Sonia Vionnet Menot

Thick film deposition of conductive, dielectric and resistive pastes on ceramic membranes is a cost effective technique to manufacture piezoresistive pressure sensors. Thick-film resistors consist of a percolating network of conductive oxide nanoparticles ...

Scanning probe arrays for life sciences and nanobiology applications

Nico de Rooij, Terunobu Akiyama, Peter Vettiger, Laure Aeschimann, André Meister

Various 1D and 2D scanning probe arrays with integrated piezoresistive sensors have been developed in view of nanobiology and life science applications. For such applications, the experiments need usually to be performed under liquid conditions. The probe ...

Low-cost thick-film force sensors for the 100 N force range

Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Giancarlo Corradini

This work presents calculations and measurements on a novel low-cost thick-film force sensor design for the 100 N force range. The mechanical concept of these force sensors is based on a double ring biaxial load, which allows the fabrication of simple sens ...

Design and processing of low-range piezoresistive LTCC force sensors

Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Hansu Birol, Giancarlo Corradini

Low-temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) combines many advantageous features for low-range (force & pressure) piezoresistive sensors: ease of 3D structuration, availability of very thin sheets, low elastic modulus and yet reasonable mechanical strength. This ...
