A symmetric surface micromachined gyroscope with decoupled oscillation modes
Alper, Said Emre; Akın, Tayfun (2001-06-14)
This paper reports a new symmetric gyroscope structure that allows not only matched resonant frequencies for the drive and sense vibration modes for better resolution, but also decoupled drive and sense oscillation modes for preventing unstable operation due to mechanical coupling. The symmetry and decoupling features are achieved at the same time with a new suspension beam design. The gyroscope structure is designed using a standard three-layer polysilicon surface micromachining process (MUMPs) and simulat...
A Planar Gyroscope Using a Standard Surface Micromachining Process
Alper, Said Emre; Akın, Tayfun (2000-08-30)
This paper presents a planar gyroscope based on a standard three-layer polysilicon surface micromachining process. Structural geometry is designed to minimize the effects of limitations coming from the standard surface micromachining. Finite element simulations are carried out, and mismatches of resonant frequencies of the drive and sense mode vibrations are reduced down to 0.5% in order to achieve increased performance. The third polysilicon layer on top of outer gimbal is used for feedback control and for...
A single-crystal silicon symmetrical and decoupled gyroscope on insulating substrate
Alper, SE; Akın, Tayfun (2003-06-12)
This paper presents a single-crystal silicon symmetrical and decoupled (SYMDEC) gyroscope implemented using dissolved wafer process on an insulating substrate. The symmetric structure allows matched resonant frequencies for the drive and sense vibration modes for high rate sensitivity and low temperature-dependent drift, while the decoupled drive and sense modes prevents unstable operation due to mechanical coupling, achieving a low bias drift. The 12-15mum-thick single-crystal silicon structural layer with...

A Frequency Tunable Metamaterial Resonator using Varactor Diodes
Nesimoglu, Tayfun; Sabah, Cumali (2016-11-16)
A frequency tunable resonator topology is proposed that consists of an S-shaped resonator, a ground frame and a feeding transmission line. Tunability is achieved by using reverse biased varactor diodes employed at critical locations on the structure. As well as being a tunable resonator, the structure also provides tunable metamaterial properties. Reflection and transmission parameters, electric and magnetic field distributions, and permittivity and permeability at each tuned frequency were analyzed and sho...
