The importance of micromachined sensors and resonators is continuously increasing as they get more widespread in a broad variety of applications ranging from handheld consumer electronics to more sophisticated applications as robotics and space applications. This is pushing research in all aspects of microsystems to produce higher performance lower cost devices to cope with the increasing demand. In this work, architectures for improving the performance of different types of MEMS inertial, magnetic sensors (targeting inertial combos) and resonators (targeting MEMS oscillators) are presented. Also, a low temperature surface micromachining technology featuring independently controlled lateral and vertical gaps targeted for the fabrication of ...
