We present a new microscopy tool for quantitative measurement of the resonant motion of microstructures. The new instrument uses optical interferometry to generate a three dimentional surface topographic map of a vibrating micormachined resonator in vacuum.
This paper reports on the development of a silicon bulk micromachined vibratory gyroscope designed for a micro inertial reference system for microspacecraft applications.
In this paper, we present recent work on the design, fabrication, and packaging of a silicon MIcro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) microgyroscope designed for space applications. A hermetically sealed package that houses the microgyroscope and most of its control electronics has been built and tested.
This paper reports on design, modeling, fabrication, and characterization of a novel silicon bulk micromachined vibratory rate gyroscope designed for microspacecraft applications. The new microgyroscope consists of a silicon four leaf cloverstructure with a post attached to the center.
