Microforce sensor design and fabrication

Design and fabricate a microforce sensor, with a focus on manufacturability. The microforce range of interest is between 0.1 mN to 100 mN with a bandwidth of going from DC to at least 10 Hz. We use MEMS technology to fabricate silicon cantilever built with build-in piezoresistors in a Wheatstone bri...

Summary:Design and fabricate a microforce sensor, with a focus on manufacturability. The microforce range of interest is between 0.1 mN to 100 mN with a bandwidth of going from DC to at least 10 Hz. We use MEMS technology to fabricate silicon cantilever built with build-in piezoresistors in a Wheatstone bridge circuit configuration.
