*** 9760219 Jue This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project addresses novel pressure sensors for deep sea applications. State-of-the-art pressure sensors are either (1) piezoresistive, (2) capacitive, or (3) piezoelectric. The first two classes require an energy source for signal generation, and piezo-type sensors require temperature compensation. Further, the signal usually is linear over only a narrow range. The new pressure sensor does not require an energy source, the signal is linear over a large pressure range, and it is temperature independent. Although deep sea application is targeted here, a slight modification of the sensor can extend the operating temperature range up to 700(C. These pressure sensors will be fabricated with and without an amplifier. The sensor response will be characterized over a wide pressure and temperature range. Feasibility of microfabrication and integration using photomicrolithography will be explored. Direct mount pressure sensors for monitoring marine life is an objective of this research. Potential commercial applications of the novel pressure sensors include pressure sensors for : (1) monitoring life in deep sea, (2) oil well logging, (3) aerospace industry, (4) automotive manufacture, (5) pressure vessels, (6) chemical industry, and (7) general industrial use. ***

*** 9760219 JUE这项小型企业创新研究（SBIR）I期项目针对深海应用的新型压力传感器。 最先进的压力传感器是（1）压电，（2）电容，或（3）压电。 前两个类需要信号产生的能源，压电型传感器需要温度补偿。 此外，信号通常仅在狭窄范围内线性。 新的压力传感器不需要能源，信号在较大的压力范围内是线性的，并且温度无关。 尽管此处针对深海的应用，但传感器的稍微修改可以将工作温度范围扩展到700（c。这些压力传感器将在有或没有放大器的情况下制造。传感器响应将在宽的压力和温度下进行表征将探索使用光学造影的微加工和整合的可行性。 （2）石油井伐木，（3）航空航天行业，（4）汽车制造，（5）压力船，（6）化学工业和（7）一般工业用途。
