摘要
Pressure sensors with boron-doped, mesa-etched polycrystalline diamond piezoresistors on top of a silicon square membrane (1300 mu m x 1300 mu m x 30 mu m) were manufactured. Electrical insulation of the boron-doped piezoresistors from the silicon substrate was achieved by an undoped diamond film. The longitudinally arranged piezoresistors were connected to form a Wheatstone bridge. The sensor shows an excellent linearity of the bridge voltage vs. pressure in the temperature range from - 50 to 170 degrees C for a pressure range of 100 kPa. The low sensitivity of 1.64 x 10(-5) mV (V Pa)(-1) can be improved using lower doping concentrations of the boron-doped piezoresistors.
