Abstract

In this work, a new pressure-sensing approach is presenting based on measuring the critical buckling voltage shift of an in-plane heated buckled microbeam with the presence of air pressure. The results show excellent linearity in the wide range of pressure from 2 to 100 Torr. Moreover, the proposed miniature pressure sensor shows a high sensitivity of 11.98 mV/Torr at its resonant frequency of 4 kHz and ambient temperature. The low power consumption, repeatability, and simplicity in design make the proposed sensor promising to realize high performance high-vacuum sensing applications.
