Abstract

This work describes a new method and parameters by which the amplitude-frequency characteristics and sensitivity of a resonant MEMS sensor subject to the recently proposed blue sideband excitation (BSE) can be tuned. We show that the sensitivity of the BSE-based resonant MEMS sensor can be improved by 3 times via suppressing the intrinsic Duffing nonlinearity coefficient of the resonator. This paves the way for a new paradigm for highly sensitive and programmable multi-mode MEMS sensors.
