• MEMS-based electrostatic field sensors (MEMS-EFS) composed of probe to detect electrostatic field and self-sensitive piezoelectric microcantilevers were developed.
• The self-sensitive piezoelectric microcantilevers have Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT) thin films for sensor and actuator.
• Self-excited vibration of the microcantilevers has been achieved by amplifying and forwarding the output voltage of the PZT thin films for sensor with a band-pass filter circuit.
• The developed MEMS-EFS can evaluate an electrostatic field of −3 to 3 kV with good linearity.
We have developed MEMS-based electrostatic field sensors (MEMS-EFS) composed of probe to detect electrostatic field and self-sensitive piezoelectric microcantilevers. The self-sensitive piezoelectric microcantilevers have Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT) thin films for sensor and actuator. The MEMS-EFS were fabricated through sol–gel deposition of PZT thin films and MEMS microfabrication process. An output voltage of the PZT thin films for sensor was found to be proportional to the displacement of the microcantilevers. Self-excited vibration of the microcantilevers has been achieved by amplifying and forwarding the output voltage of the PZT thin films for sensor with a band pass filter circuit. The developed MEMS-EFS can evaluate an electrostatic field of −3 to 3 kV with good linearity.
