Abstract

This paper proposes an optimal defect shape to increase the sensitivity of a MEMS cantilever based piezo resistive sensor. This work describes the sensitivity improvement using Stress concentration region (SCR) introduced in the cantilever beam. The SCR improves the surface stress on the cantilever beam and enhances the sensitivity of the sensor. A particular defect (sigma star) is introduced which is designed and place in a way that increases the sensitivity by about 20%.
