Abstract:In this work the effect of crystalline orientation on the acceleration sensitivity of Silicon-based MEMS oscillators is experimentally studied for the first time. The thin-film piezoelectric-on-Silicon (TPoS) platform is utilized to implement the oscillators as it enables resonators with low-motional resistance and high Q. A single lateral-extensional-mode resonator design is fabricated in <100> and <110> orientations on a <100> Silicon wafer. The resonators are then used to assemble two oscillators operating … Show more
