摘要
A sensor is suggested for continuous monitoring of intraocular pressure and similar biomedical applications. The system consists of a capacitive pressure sensor determining the resonance frequency of a passive LC resonator. The resonance frequency is detected in a grid-dip configuration. The paper mainly deals with the capacitive sensor, which is fabricated in silicon, using a silicon fusion bond to seal the cavity. This process will minimize internal stress and provide the necessary conditions for a small temperature drift and stability over long periods of time. Experimentally, prototype sensors have been fabricated and evaluated in vitro. The results are promising and in accordance with theoretical expectations. © 1990.
