Abstract
Acoustic sensing through optical transduction represents a promising alternative to the conventional capacitive sensing used in MEMS microphones, especially when aiming at ultra-low noise (i.e. high DR) applications. This paper reports the design and the modeling of the sensing elements of a MEMS optical microphone. The basic transduction mechanism is presented and the main design parameters and challenges are explained and analyzed with advanced modeling techniques.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
