Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of microstructure resonant beam pressure sensor that can increase substantially the precision of resonance type pressure sensor.
For achieving the above object, the technical solution used in the present invention is: comprise last silicon chip and lower silicon slice that bonding forms, two peninsulas that last silicon chip comprises a rectangular frame and is opened in the symmetry in the rectangular frame, the two ends of two groups of resonance beam that are arranged side by side of being made by titanium nitride are connected with two peninsulas respectively, on each resonance beam, be respectively arranged with the exciting resistance and the pick-up resistance that link to each other with lead-in wire and electrode, lower silicon slice is one to have the structure of degree of lip-rounding frame, is provided with pressure membrane in degree of lip-rounding frame.
The peninsula of the present invention is opened on the longitudinal midline of rectangular frame; The thickness of degree of lip-rounding frame is the several times of pressure membrane thickness.
Because the present invention adopts the resonance beam of titanium nitride as pressure sensor, titanium nitride (TiN) has quite high natural resonance frequency, uses titanium nitride (TiN) resonance beam can significantly improve the precision of resonance type pressure sensor.And why the natural resonance frequency height can improve certainty of measurement, be because natural resonance frequency is high more, so Dui Ying 0 pressure frequency is mobile also just big more, (precision of sensor is a frequency instability and the ratio of corresponding 0 pressure frequency shifts) precision is also just high more under the suitable situation of frequency instability so, and the present invention adopts the double resonance girder construction, twin-spar construction can obtain two groups of data in identical measurement environment, can reduce measure error greatly by processing, thereby further improve certainty of measurement measurement data.

The specific embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing structural principle of the present invention and operation principle are described in further detail.
Referring to Fig. 1, the present invention includes last silicon chip 11 and lower silicon slice 12 that bonding forms, two peninsulas 14 that last silicon chip 11 comprises a rectangular frame 15 and is opened in the symmetry on rectangular frame 15 longitudinal midlines, the two ends of two groups of resonance beam 13 that are arranged side by side of being made by titanium nitride are connected with two peninsulas 14 respectively, lower silicon slice 12 is one to have the structure of degree of lip-rounding frame 17, is provided with pressure membrane 16 in degree of lip-rounding frame 17.The thickness of degree of lip-rounding frame 17 is several times of pressure membrane 16 thickness.
Referring to Fig. 2, be respectively arranged with on each resonance beam 13 of the present invention and go between 18 and electrode 19 the exciting resistance 20 and the pick-up resistance 21 that link to each other.
Referring to Fig. 3, because upper and lower silicon chip 11,12 is bonded to an integral body, pressure membrane 16 is experienced applied force and is delivered on the resonance beam 13, changed the axial mechanical stress of resonance beam 13, and then changed the rigidity of resonance beam, so just make the natural resonance frequency of resonance beam 13 change, realize pressure measxurement by the change of resonance frequency that detects resonance beam 13.
Resonance beam pressure sensor of the present invention, its resonance beam 13 adopts the electric heating excitation, the mode of pressure drag pick-up: thermal excitation comprises electric heating excitation and photothermal excitation, and they have very big difference on method, but exiting principle is the same, all is distortion and the vibration that causes resonance beam 13 by the diffusion of heat.The electric heating excitation is to apply alternating voltage on exciting resistance 20, makes resonance beam 13 produce the temperature stress of alternation, drives resonance beam 13 vibrations, and when vibration frequency was consistent with the natural resonance frequency of resonance beam 13, resonance beam 13 resonated, and it is maximum that amplitude reaches.Detect the vibration of resonance beam 13 by pick-up resistance 21.Photothermal excitation is to shine on the beam by the optical fiber coupling by the Modulating Diode Laser pulse, beam absorbs laser, produce the thermal stress of the alternation identical with the modulating light pulse frequency, under the effect of this thermal stress, do forced vibration, when pulse frequency equals the natural resonance frequency of beam, beam resonates, and it is maximum that amplitude reaches.Why adopt the electric heating excitation, the pressure drag pick-up, and do not adopt photothermal excitation, be because the electric conductivity of titanium nitride (TiN) is relatively good, and the coefficient of heat conduction is relatively low, therefore be same exciting power with same driving voltage, temperature rise that produces in titanium nitride (TiN) beam and change of resonance frequency are just bigger, thus the sensitivity that helps improving resonance type pressure sensor.
Pick-up is exactly the vibration that detects resonance beam 13 by pick-up resistance 21.Be to utilize the pressure drag pick-up among the present invention.The pressure drag pick-up is to utilize the resistivity of pressure drag material to be subjected to the pressure drag characteristic of its suffered stress modulation, on resonance beam 13, make a piezo-resistance, when resonance beam 13 vibrations, the stress of this piezo-resistance impression can periodically change, the size of stress is directly proportional with the amplitude of beam, and the variation of measuring piezo-resistance can detect vibration of beam.
The present invention uses titanium nitride (TiN) to do the material of resonance beam, not only can improve the precision of resonance type pressure sensor greatly, because titanium nitride (TiN) has the favorable mechanical processing characteristics, this makes the sensing element in the resonance type pressure sensor is very favorable.
