Abstract

We have realized a micro Coriolis mass flow sensor with piezoelectric transducers for both actuation and readout, resulting in lower power consumption and improved robustness to shock in comparison to the current actuation and readout methods. The PZT thin film in the parallel plate piezoelectric transducers was deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). This paper presents the design, fabrication process and initial characterization results with mass flow of water and nitrogen.
