The Design of AlGaN/GaN HEFT-Micro-Accelerometer and Temperature- Dependence Electrical Performance

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, We use a novel principle to detect acceleration and report how I-V characteristics and piezoresistance coefficient of AlGaN/GaN HEFT-micro-accelerometer are affected by setting different temperatures. It is shown that saturation current of device would go down if the temperature goes up, which is about 0.028mA/°C, based on the research. However, the device can work well at the temperature range of -50°C to 50°C, which indicates that it can work safely in the larger temperature range.
