摘要
A novel accelerometer fabricated by a combination of screen-printing and silicon mircomachining is reported. This is the first device of its kind fabricated in this manner. Initial results indicate a sensitivity of 16pCg(-1) which compares very favourably with a sensitivity of 0.15pCg(-1) reported for thin-film devices.
