    摘要: A microsensor housing having a structure with at least one inlet at one end and a thermal property sensor at the other end. Situated between the inlet and the sensor is a convection shield. Sampled fluid is taken in the inlet from a channel carrying the fluid to be sampled. The convection flow lines of the fluid are barred by the convection shield. The fluid is diffused into a cavity between the shield and sensor. The sensor detects a thermal property of the diffused fluid. One preferred shield has holes about its perimeter with a solid center part of the shield covering at a distance the sensor. The channel carrying the fluid may have screens to reduce turbulence noise and to aid in fluid transport to and from the sensor housing.

    摘要: A micromachined integrated opto-fluidic or opto-acoustic sensor having a rapidly intensity-varying or pulsing light source, an interference filter, a gas cavity, which may or may not be an optical and/or acoustic resonator tuned to a particular wavelength of light, or sound frequency, into which the detected gas can diffuse into via a filter, and a fluidic or pressure sensor to detect the heating and cooling, and the resulting expansion and contraction of the gas due to the absorption of light at the particular wavelength by the specific gas being detected. The presence of other gases is inferred from the detected gas.

    摘要: A light detector having a cathode wafer, a cavity wafer and an anode wafer. The cathode wafer may be bonded to one side of the cavity wafer and the anode wafer may be bonded to another side of the cavity wafer. The cathode wafer may have numerous cathodes, the anode wafer numerous anodes and the cavity wafer numerous cavities which may be aligned on a one-to-one basis to form a wafer structure of a plurality of detectors which may be diced into separable detector chips. When there is a voltage potential across a cathode and an anode, and a gas such as Ne or the like in the cavity, a reception of light such as ultra violet may result in an electronic discharge between the cathode and anode of the light detector.

    摘要: A sensor having a nanotube grown on and supported by thermal bimorph structures. The nanotube rests on a heat sink during sensing gas or a liquid and is moved from the heat sink when the nanotube is heated to desorb gas or liquid from it. The heatsink may function as a gate along with the bimorph structures as the other terminals of a transistor. Current-voltage and current-gate voltage characteristics may be obtained of the nanotube as a device like a transistor. These characteristics may provide information on a gas or liquid absorbed by the nanotube.

    摘要: A tunable bolometer device for detecting infrared light (IR) from a target at specific frequencies and in a broadband mode. The device may have an array of pixels of which each is controllable to be sensitive to a particular wavelength of light that is selected and detected. The detection of particular frequencies on a pixel level may result in spectral analysis of the target. Further, each pixel of the bolometer via an associated etalon may be tuned to detect a different frequency of IR or be switched to broadband detection of IR. The device may be packaged in an integrated vacuum package where the etalon array becomes the topcap which is bonded to the wafer containing the bolometer array.

    摘要: An infrared imaging array of thermoelectric sensors has a plurality of electrically connected microbridge subsensors comprising each sensor of the array. Each subsensor consists of a short span microbridge lying across a relatively small pit. The use of many of such subsensors for each sensor rather than a single large area microbridge sensor for a single pixel allows each pixel to be made large enough to give good sensitivity in either vacuum or gas-filled designs, and at the same time avoid the reduced fabrication yield which results when sensors span large pits.

    摘要: A semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor body having a depression formed into the first surface of the body. The device further comprises member means comprising a thermal-to-electric transducer or static electric element, the member means having a predetermined configuration suspended over the depression. The member means is connected to the first surface so that the predetermined configuration is cantilevered over the depression, the depression opening to the first surface around at least a portion of the predetermined configuration. The depression provides substantial physical and thermal isolation between the element and the semiconductor body. In this manner, an integrated semiconductor device provides an environment of substantial physical and thermal isolation between the transducer or element and the semiconductor body.
