Insertion type multimodal sensor including electrical conductivity (EC) and temperature sensor was fabricated. For a visualization of nutrient solution diffusion and a real time monitoring of decreasing concentration for rarifying nutrient solution, the multimodal sensor monitored three difference depths in soil and a limited extent in closed soil, in real time. We achieved to visualize in actual cultivation environment by using the multimodal sensor, for the first time.","PeriodicalId":202479,"journal":{"name":"2013 Transducers & Eurosensors XXVII: The 17th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems (TRANSDUCERS & EUROSENSORS XXVII)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115298945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After Al/Ni multilayer films were deposited on a Si wafer, micro-sized rectangular cuboids were formed from the films using focused ion beam. By applying a small spark to the cuboids, we have tried to make them exothermic reaction. As the result, both of reacted and unreacted cuboids were found. In the cuboids with higher aspect ratio and smaller one-side length, the reaction easily occurred. The cause of the size effect was discussed in the viewpoint of thermal conductivity of a Si substrate.","PeriodicalId":202479,"journal":{"name":"2013 Transducers & Eurosensors XXVII: The 17th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems (TRANSDUCERS & EUROSENSORS XXVII)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115435525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The phase readout and calibration operation relies on the phase shifts observed at the gyroscope outputs with respect to the applied excitations. The proposed electrostatic calibration obviates the use of any additional moving parts or calibration stage. The significance of this work is having shared interface electronics between the readout and calibration configurations, which inherently compensates for the sources of drift in the electronics, resulting in improved calibration accuracy. Experimental data is presented that supports the theoretical analysis of the proposed readout and self-calibration schemes.","PeriodicalId":202479,"journal":{"name":"2013 Transducers & Eurosensors XXVII: The 17th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems (TRANSDUCERS & EUROSENSORS XXVII)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114676966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most smart yarns and textiles developed so far do not come with sophisticated functionalities due to the fact that silicon-based sensors and CMOS circuits cannot be seamlessly integrated. This paper reports a SOI-CMOS compatible technology to fabricate smart yarns, enabling the monolithic and invisible integration of CMOS and sensors. A tubular shaped parylene smart yarn with reinforcing PMDS core has been developed. Isotropic XeF2 silicon etching and conformal parylene coating were used to form the outer shell and release the electronic/sensing components from a SOI wafer. PDMS cores were injected after the release to reinforce and strengthen the yarns. To prove the concept, silicon strain gauges and MOSFETs were first integrated.","PeriodicalId":202479,"journal":{"name":"2013 Transducers & Eurosensors XXVII: The 17th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems (TRANSDUCERS & EUROSENSORS XXVII)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121115064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The relationship between plastic deformation and structure dimensions is demonstrated, and the creep curve of microstructure is firstly reported. The plastic and creep behavior of SCS microstructure, which consists of a square diaphragm with a center boss and a vacuum cavity, was investigated by measuring the deformation of the microstructure after undergoing a series of high temperature processes. The experiment results show that the plastic deformation is in inverse ratio to the cube of the diaphragm thickness. The obvious creep was observed at 1100°C. The creep rate decreased with time and then became nearly constant.","PeriodicalId":202479,"journal":{"name":"2013 Transducers & Eurosensors XXVII: The 17th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems (TRANSDUCERS & EUROSENSORS XXVII)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127175878","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we demonstrate the multisite wide-area depth transfers of the trapped particles into a soft material of gelatin by simply penetrating the nanotip probe array as a “stamp” usage.
