ABSTRACT
The purpose of this paper is to apply Surface Micromachining of MEMS techniques to manufacture a micro flexible sensor. Micro sensors not only have a smaller physical size than their traditional counterparts, but also provide a greater measurement accuracy and a higher sensitivity. MEMS components integrate with measured circuit or devices and miniature dimension is easier to get well to be conveniently portable. In this study, a platinum layer is deposited to form resistors and a Au layer is deposited on the resistors to serve as an electrode and to provide electrical leads, which are sandwiched between two polyimide layers as flexible substrates.
Then we manufacture a bottom plate of PDMS which be broached five different diameters of holes. When we apply a weight on the pressure sensor placed on the PDMS, bottom plate we can measure the resistance variation to determine the pressure. The
experimental data indicate that sensitivity increases as the diameters of holes of PDMS plates. Not only the measured resistance value increases as the temperature increases, the sensitivity of the temperature increases as the bending curvature decreases.
Therefore it is easy to measure pressure and temperature by the simplified structure.
Keywords : MEMS、polyimide、pressure sensor、PDMS、temperature sensor Table of Contents
