Single-crystal silicon carbide (SiC)-based pressure sensors can be used in harsh environments, as they exhibit stable mechanical and electrical properties at elevated temperatures. A fiber-optic pressure sensor with an all-SiC sensor head was fabricated and is herein proposed. SiC sensor diaphragms were fabricated via an ultrasonic vibration mill-grinding (UVMG) method, which resulted in a small grinding force and low surface roughness. The sensor head was formed by hermetically bonding two layers of SiC using a nickel diffusion bonding method. The pressure sensor illustrated a good linearity in the range of 0.1-0.9 MPa, with a resolution of 0.27% F.S. (full scale) at room temperature.
基于单晶碳化硅(SiC)的压力传感器可用于恶劣环境,因为它们在高温下表现出稳定的机械和电气性能。本文制备并提出了一种具有全SiC传感头的光纤压力传感器。SiC传感膜片通过超声振动磨粒磨削(UVMG)方法制备,该方法磨削力小且表面粗糙度低。传感头通过镍扩散键合方法将两层SiC气密键合而成。该压力传感器在0.1 - 0.9 MPa范围内呈现良好的线性度,在室温下分辨率为0.27% F.S.(满量程)。
