  2. Piezoelectric accelerometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_accelerometer

    The force exerted on the piezoelectric material can be observed in the change in the electrostatic force or voltage generated by the piezoelectric material. This differs from a piezoresistive effect in that piezoresistive materials experience a change in the resistance of the material rather than a change in charge or voltage. Physical force ...

    The spring mass provides greater accuracy, and the piezoresistive properties of graphene converts the strain from acceleration to electrical signals for the accelerometer. The suspended graphene ribbon simultaneously forms the spring and piezoresistive transducer, making efficient use of space in while improving performance of NEMS accelerometers.

  4. Accelerometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerometer

    An accelerometer measures proper acceleration, which is the acceleration it experiences relative to freefall and is the acceleration felt by people and objects. [2] Put another way, at any point in spacetime the equivalence principle guarantees the existence of a local inertial frame, and an accelerometer measures the acceleration relative to that frame. [4]

  5. Piezoresistive effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoresistive_effect

    The piezoresistive effect of semiconductor materials can be several orders of magnitudes larger than the geometrical effect and is present in materials like germanium, polycrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon, silicon carbide, and single crystal silicon. Hence, semiconductor strain gauges with a very high coefficient of sensitivity can be built.

  6. MEMS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEMS

    MEMS accelerometers. MEMS gyroscopes in remote controlled, or autonomous, helicopters, planes and multirotors (also known as drones), used for automatically sensing and balancing flying characteristics of roll, pitch and yaw. MEMS magnetic field sensor (magnetometer) may also be incorporated in such devices to provide directional heading.

  7. Piezoelectric sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_sensor

    For accelerometers, a seismic mass is attached to the crystal elements. When the accelerometer experiences a motion, the invariant seismic mass loads the elements according to Newton's second law of motion =. The main difference in working principle between these two cases is the way they apply forces to the sensing elements.

  8. Piezotronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezotronics

    Piezotronic devices are regarded as a new semiconductor-device category. Piezotronics is likely to have important applications in sensor, human-silicon technology interfacing, MEMS, nanorobotics and active flexible electronics.

  9. Piezoelectric microelectromechanical systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_micro...

    The first reported piezoelectrically actuated RF MEMS switch was developed by scientists at the LG Electronics Institute of Technology in Seoul, South Korea in 2005. [3] The researchers designed and actualized a RF MEMS switch with a piezoelectric cantilever actuator that had an operation voltage of 2.5 volts. [7]
