摘要： A thermally-sensitive cantilever sensor switch with a bimorph structure based on phononic cantilever structure. Phononic structure increases switch sensitivity to incident absorbed radiation. In embodiments the zero power switch is sensitive to ambient temperature and/or incident absorbed radiation. In embodiments, multiple switches are configured within a spectrometer to provide a means of monitoring toxic components within a media of interest such as smokestake effluents and hot emitters. The switch may be structured with sensitivity to incident radiation within wavelength bands ranging from ultraviolet (UV) to MHz.

摘要： A system and method for sensing the wave impedance of a material using an RF power source with a sensor structure comprised of a metamaterial radiative filter (MRF). The wave impedance is specified or monitored by processing a differential RF signal level with an impedance calculator. The differential RF signal level is obtained from a reference source signal and a response signal. RF field-coupling of the RF source with the material effects the response signal level. In embodiments, the spectrometer is physically configured for noninvasive and invasive measurements. In embodiments, the material is sensed when shielded by RF-opaque media. In embodiments, wherein the MRF has a fixed response characteristic, the dielectric constant may be obtained with a sensing structure comprised of two transponders and a single RF frequency. In embodiments wherein the MRF has a fixed response characteristic, both the dielectric constant and the loss tangent may be obtained using three transponders and a single RF frequency. In embodiments wherein the MRF is tuned with programmed control, both the dielectric constant and the loss tangent may be obtained using two transponders and a single RF frequency.

In some applications the electronic sensor provides a means to sense an electromagnetic property including dielectric permittivity of media including grains, forage, peanuts, and soils. The figures depict the ornamental design based on a material such as a PVC plastic pipe cylinder having an attached pointed tip. The pointed tip enables insertion of the electronic sensor into the material of interest.

摘要： An “integrated” Fabry-Perot interferometer, such as for use in a spectrophotometer, is fabricated by attaching two micro-machined semiconductor-on-insulator wafers to one another. One mirror is formed on each micro-machined wafer. One mirror is supported by a thermally insulated, suspended micro-platform. In some embodiments, interferometer cavity length is adjustable. Detectors are disposed at least partially within the micro-platform. In some embodiments, the interferometer, a light source, and other circuitry and components, such as wireless communications components, are contained in a sealed package that includes a sampling region, thereby providing an integrated spectrophotometer. The integrated spectrophotometer can be implanted, for example, in animal tissue environments, such as for analyzing various compounds in the blood.

摘要： An RFID antenna comprised of a first arm, load element, and second arm together providing a complex impedance match to one or more load circuits contained within the load element for operation at one or more frequency bands. The load element is comprised of one or more load circuits. Load circuits are further comprised of one or more RFID transponders, energy scavengers, microcontrollers, and associated sensor circuits. The first and second arms are different in length and shape resulting in an asymmetrical antenna structure along the major axis. The first arm, the load element, and the second arm all comprise radiative electromagnetic structures for ultra high frequency and higher bands of operation. Embodiments provide an antenna with Faraday coils located within the arms operating in one or more of low frequency and, high frequency bands.

摘要： A Radio-Frequency IDentification (RFID) receiver is disclosed that comprises a plurality of resonant structures arranged to form an antenna. The resonant structures are interconnected in series and are arranged, relative to one another, so as to achieve a received electrical signal with an increased voltage, when the antenna is exposed to an incident electromagnetic signal. This occurs for a majority of all possible incident electromagnetic signals and, therefore, an RFID receiver based on such an antenna provides, in a majority of cases, an improved performance.

摘要： A first embodiment of an improved microaccelerometer includes a seismic mass, a support wafer, a cover wafer and a beam (or beams) for flexibly mounting a seismic mass between the support and cover wafers. A first oscillator includes a resonant circuit whose capacitance comprises conductive plates on one surface of the seismic mass and a conductive coating on an opposed surface of the support wafer. A second oscillator includes a resonant circuit whose capacitance is comprised of conductive coatings on another surface of the seismic mass and on an opposed surface of the cover wafer. A difference circuit provides an acceleration output that is dependent on a difference in oscillation frequencies between the first and second oscillators, when the accelerometer is subjected to an acceleration event. A second embodiment includes a structure similar to the aforedescribed, however, the second oscillator is replaced by an ac levitation circuit that exerts a single direction restoring force on the seismic mass during an acceleration event. A third embodiment provides ac levitational restoring forces when the seismic mass is subject to acceleration in either of two opposed directions. In the latter embodiment, ac levitating circuits are disposed on opposed surfaces of the support and cover wafers.

摘要： A cantilever microstructure includes a cantilever arm with a proximal end connected to a substrate and a freely movable distal end. The cantilever arm comprises first and second sections and includes a continuous layer which exhibits a first thermal co-efficient of expansion (TCE). In one embodiment, an electrical contact is positioned at the distal end of the cantilever arm. A first layer is positioned on a surface of the continuous layer and along the first section thereof. The first layer exhibits a second TCE which is different from the first TCE of the continuous layer. A second layer is positioned on a surface of the continuous layer and along the second section thereof. The second layer exhibits a third TCE which is different from the first TCE of the continuous layer. Electrical control circuitry selectively applies signals to the first and second layers to cause a heating thereof and a flexure of the cantilever arm so as to bring the distal end thereof into contact with a conductive substrate.
