Prepared for CMC by:
- Research group: Advanced MEMS/NEMS Design Facility, Director: Prof. Walied Moussa, Ph.D., P.Eng
- Graduate student: Ahmed Mohammed; Ph.D. Candidate Mechanical Engineering Department, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta.
This application note provides guidelines on how to develop MEMS piezoresistive sensors, particularly MEMS strain (stress) sensors in a NanoFab facility such as the University of Alberta ’s Micro/Nanofabrication Facility (UofA NanoFab). The guidelines will help researchers who wish to build MEMS piezoresistive strain (stress) sensors with stable performance under temperature-varying conditions.
