    Effects of Curved-Beam Heights to Harvested Energy in a Blanaced Comb-Drive Configuration
    (IEEE, 2021-08-25) Hah, Dooyoung
    Energy harvesting devices have been gaining increasing interests, especially in the areas of internet of things (IoTs) and sensor networks. Due to the broadband and random nature of typical vibration energy sources available in the environment, significant amount of research efforts have been put into the bandwidth broadening of the energy harvesters. Utilization of spring nonlinearity has been one of the most studied subject in that regard. In this work, response of an energy harvesting device with curved-beam springs to colorednoise vibration is studied numerically, based on stochastic differential equations. The harvester considered in this study is an electrostatic type with electrets and a balanced comb-drive configuration. The study mainly focuses on the effect of the beam height to the harvested power. The results show that curved-beam springs can increase the harvested electric power by 52% (2.69 mW versus 1.77 mW) in comparison to straight-beam springs of the same dimensions. Buckling-induced rapid snapping of the curved beams is attributed to such a power increase.

    Electret Vibration Energy Harvesters With Symmetrically Configured Curved-Beam Hinges
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2024-03) Hah, Dooyoung
    For vibration energy harvesters, broadband power spectral characteristics are often desirable. One way of achieving broadband spectrum is to employ curved-beam hinges, utilizing their nonlinear spring characteristics. In our previous study, electret-based vibration energy harvesters employing curved-beam hinges were investigated via numerical analysis based on stochastic differential equations and colored-noise inputs. It showed that the harvesters with curved-beam hinges can produce higher power than the ones with ordinary straight beams when the external acceleration is between 0.02g and 0.05g. It was also learned that the straight-beam device, a Duffing oscillator, performs better than the curved-beam device, a Duffing-Holmes oscillator, at higher acceleration (>= 0.1g\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\ge 0.1g$$\end{document}). Since the energy harvesting efficiency is one of the most important performance indicators, continuous search for novel configurations with improved efficiency is needed. For that purpose, a symmetric configuration of curved-beam hinges (a Duffing oscillator) is proposed in this work, in contrast to the previously reported one with an asymmetric configuration (a Duffing-Holmes oscillator). This study shows, via numerical analysis, that the symmetric configuration can produce higher (up to 7.3% more) power outputs for the external acceleration magnitude higher than 0.1g, when compared to an asymmetric configuration. The study results also show that it can produce higher power outputs (up to 4.5 times) than the harvesters employing ordinary straight-beam hinges.

    Analytical Design of MEMS Variable Capacitors Based on Shaped-Finger Comb-Drives
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2019-02-23) Hah, Dooyoung
    A variable capacitor is one of the widely used components in radio frequency (RF) circuits. Variable capacitors can benefit from the microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, to be equipped with attractive characteristics such as high quality factor and wide tuning range. One of the design goals for MEMS varactors has been to realize linear capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics, for which a design method is proposed in this paper, based on shaped-finger comb-drive actuators. The shaped-finger design method, originally developed for a tunable optical filter application by the author, is redeveloped in this work for a linear C-V varactor. Moreover, the conformal mapping method is employed in calculation of capacitances, making the whole design process more time-efficient, being almost all-analytical with the minimum usage of numerical analysis methods. Effects of sense capacitor finger shapes to the optimized drive capacitor finger shapes and the corresponding C-V characteristics are investigated as well. Variable capacitors with the shaped-finger design show linearity factor (LF)-defined as the maximum deviation from the perfect linear relationship-as good as 0.4%, enormously improved from that of the conventional constant-finger-gap devices (LF: 49.9%). Further probed by 3-D numerical analysis, the C-V characteristics of the designed variable capacitor show LF better than 2.62% in the case of constant-gap sense capacitors, and as good as 0.77% in the case of shaped-finger sense capacitors. Versatility of the design method is further demonstrated by presenting a varactor for linear resonant frequency-voltage (f-V) characteristics in voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) applications. Finally, effects of etch bias, one of common fabrication imperfections, to the linearity of C-V characteristics are studied. The developed analytical design method with shaped fingers can find a wide range of applications where comb-drive actuators are used.

    All-Polymer Ultrasonic Transducer Design for an Intravascular Ultrasonography Application
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2019-07-26) Hah, Dooyoung
    Intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS), a medical imaging modality, is used to obtain cross-sectional views of blood vessels from inside. In IVUS, transducers are brought to the proximity of the imaging targets so that high-resolution images can be obtained at high frequency without much concern of signal attenuation. To eliminate mechanical rotation rendered in conventional IVUS, it is proposed to manufacture a transducer array on a flexible substrate and wrap it around a cylindrical frame. The transducer of consideration is a capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT). The whole device needs to be made out of polymers to be able to endure a high degree of bending (radius: 1 mm) Bending of the devices leads to considerable changes in the device characteristics, including resonant frequency and pull-in voltage due to geometrical dimension changes and stress induced. The main purpose of this work is to understand the effect of bending on the device characteristics by means of finite element analysis. Another objective of the work is to understand the relationships between such an effect and the device geometries. It is learned that the bending-induced stress depends strongly on anchor width, membrane thickness, and substrate thickness. It is also learned that resonant frequency and pull-in voltage become lower in most cases because of using a flexible substrate in comparison to those of the device on a rigid substrate. Bending-induced stress increases the spring constant and hence increases resonant frequency and pull-in voltage, although this effect is relatively weaker. For most of the device geometries, pull-in voltage is too high for the polymer material to endure. This is the main drawback of the all-polymer CMUT. In order to meet the design goal of 20 MHz resonant frequency, the membrane radius has to be smaller than 7.7 mu m for a thickness of 3 mu m.

    Design of Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducers (CMUTS) on a Flexible Substrate for Intravascular Ultrasonography (IVUS) Applications
    (IEEE, 2017) Hah, Dooyoung; Je, Chang Han; Lee, Sung-Q
    Effects of substrate bending to the characteristics of capacitive miniaturized ultrasonic transducers (CMUTs) on a flexible substrate are studied through finite element analysis (FEA) for the design purpose. The target application of the devices is intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS) where transducers are brought to the proximity of the imaging targets so that high resolution images can be obtained without much concern of signal attenuation. In order to eliminate mechanical rotation used in the conventional IVUS, the transducer array can be manufactured on a flexible substrate and to wrap it around a cylindrical frame. It can be anticipated that the characteristics of the transducers will be altered by such bending of the substrate through geometrical dimension changes and stress induced. Pullin voltages and resonant frequencies of CMUTs were studied via FEA for various bending radii and membrane thicknesses. It was found that both pull-in voltages and resonant frequencies become smaller for the transducers on a bent substrate compared to the ones on a flat substrate. It was also found that pull-in voltages decrease as the substrate bending radius is reduced.

    A Design Method of Comb-Drive Actuators for Linear Tuning Characteristics in Mechanically Tunable Optical Filters
    (Springer, 2015-11-28) Hah, Dooyoung
    A new method is proposed in design of comb-drive actuators for specific voltage-displacement characteristics with finger gaps as the design parameters. The design method proposed by the author previously is further refined by adopting a more accurate model which considers fringe electric fields. The proposed method is applied to design comb-drive actuators with an aim to achieve linear tuning characteristics in mechanically tunable optical add-drop filters with microring resonators. To make an assessment of the accuracy of the proposed design method, three-dimensional electrostatic numerical analysis is conducted to obtain capacitances of the designed comb-drive actuators as functions of the moving finger displacement. Obtained capacitances are used to find the tuning characteristics (resonant wavelength vs. voltage) of the filter, in combination with the results from the author's other work where a relationship between the resonant wavelength and the displacement of an index modulator was studied. It is found that by employing the actuators designed by the proposed method, the maximum deviation from linearity (MDL) can be reduced by 17.2 % points (from 25.7 % of the conventional design to 8.5 % of the new design). MDL is further reduced to 4.4 % by making a few modifications in the design.

    Analytical Design of Linear Variable Capacitors With Shaped-Finger Comb-Drive Actuators
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-05) Hah, Dooyoung
    Variable capacitors have a broad usage in radio frequency (RF) circuits. Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology can provide variable capacitors with high quality factor and wide tuning range characteristics. One of the design goals for MEMS varactors has been linear capacitance- voltage (C-V) characteristics. To design a linear C-V varactor, a shaped-finger comb-drive actuator is proposed in this paper. The shaped-finger design method, originally developed to obtain linear wavelength-voltage relationships in a tunable optical filter, is modified in this work for a linear C-V varactor, which involves development of a new governing equation. Moreover, conformal mapping is employed in calculation of capacitances, making the whole design process almost all-analytical with the minimum usage of numerical analysis methods. Variable capacitors with the shaped-finger design show linearity factor (LF) - defined as the maximum deviation from the perfect linear relationship - as low as 0.4%, tremendously improved from that of the conventional constant-finger-gap devices (LF: 49.9%). The characteristics of the designed variable capacitor are further investigated through 3-D numerical analysis, and show LF better than 11.5% for the finger thickness in the range between 1 and 10 micrometers. Versatility of the design method is further demonstrated by design of a varactor with linear resonant frequency-voltage (f-V) characteristics for voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) applications. The developed analytical design method with shaped fingers can find a wide range of applications where comb-drive actuators are used. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Quasi-Static Operation of 2-Axis Microscanners With AlN Piezoelectric Quad-Actuators
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021-08-25) Hah, D.
    Aluminum nitride (AlN) started to draw attentions as a material for piezoelectric actuation owing to its CMOS process compatibility and safeness for biomedical applications. Due to its relatively low piezoelectric coefficients, AlN-based piezoelectric actuators have been mostly operated in resonance modes, especially in optical scanning. This paper presents a novel design of a 2-axis-tilt microscanner with AlN piezoelectric quad-actuators and meander-shaped hinges for reasonable quasi-static operation. Through finite-element-method simulation, it is shown that the proposed device can have about 9 degree of optical scan angle in two dimensions with the voltage amplitude of 50 V. Lissajous scanning operation of the device is demonstrated as well via simulation. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    An FEM Study of die Attach Packaging Effect on Nanomechanical Si Optical Filters
    (IEEE, 2017) Seok, Seonho; Hah, Dooyoung
    This paper presents a finite element analysis of die attach packaging stress effect on emerging nanomechanical silicon optical filters. The proposed silicon optical filter is composed of Si waveguides and a microring resonator having a few hundred nm in thickness and a few tens of mu m in length. Photonic integrated circuit is typically implemented by attaching a new component to a common ceramic interposer with other components. Such an attachment process would be a cause of unwanted performance deviation of MEMS or NEMS devices due to the packaging stress. Therefore, an FEM model has been used to evaluate deflection and stress of NEMS waveguides and microring resonators which are main elements for the proposed optical filter.
