This paper presents the highly reliable and wafer level vacuum packaged vertical micro-gyroscope with decoupled vibrating structures. In order to increase the sensitivity by exact tuning the resonant modes without instability problem, we devised two torsion springs for sensing mode in addition to four driving springs attached to outer gimbal. For the fabrication of the proposed gyroscope with high aspect ratio and wafer level vacuum packaging, we used the mixed micro-machining process which has the merits of a conventional surface and bulk micro-machining process. The measured vacuum level of the fabricated gyroscope was about lOOmTorr and the driving and sensing mode frequencies were tuned in 5Hz. The gyroscope has the sensitivity of 0.013 '/sec and bandwidth of 60 Hz. The output non-linearity is below than 2% in +I 00 O/sec fill scale.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
