Outline of Final Research Achievements |
All the present magnetic sensors have each own drawback, such as high cost, low-temperature requirement, and complex infrastructure for SQUID, low sensitivity for Hall sensor, and high volume and power consumption for fluxgate sensor. In particular, magnetic sensing with preserved performance at high temperatures over 500℃ has been difficult for these sensors. The present magnetic sensors are suffered from low sensitivity and poor reliability issues due to the lack of proper device concept compatible with materials tailoring.In this project, we combined the robust single-crystal diamond (SCD) MEMS with a multifunctional magnetostrictive FeGa film and demonstrated the integrated on-chip resonator-type MEMS magnetic sensor. The MEMS magnetic sensor shows a high sensitivity of 9.45 nT/Hz1/2, stable up to 300℃. The work paves the way for producing magnetic sensor to overcome the weakness of the current magnetic sensors in sensitivity, energy consumption, and reliability.
