Abstract

The authors present the prototype of a chemical sensor using a capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer array. Each element in the array consists of a large number of resonating membranes connected in parallel. A five-channel oscillator circuit operates at the resonant frequency around 6 MHz in this prototype. The surface of the elements in the array is coated by polymers such as polyallylamine hydrochloride, polyethylene glycol, and polyvinyl alcohol to detect different chemicals. By measuring shift in oscillation frequencies due to the mass-loading effect, analytes, e.g., water and isopropanol, with concentrations around 20 ppbv (parts per 10(9) by volume) range can be detected.
