Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This dissertation presents design challenges and promising solutions for temperature and pressure sensors which are highly desirable for harsh-environment applications, such as turbine engines. To survive the harsh environment consisting of high temperatures above 1000°C, high pressures around 300 psi, and corrosive gases, the sensors are required to be robust both electrically and mechanically. In addition, wire connection of the sensors is a challenging packaging problem, which remains unresolved as of today. In this dissertation, robust ceramic sensors are demonstrated for both high temperature and pressure measurements. Also, the wireless sensors are achieved based on microwave resonators. Two types of …
