Title:
DETECTION SENSOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2007187485
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a detection sensor that is enhanced in sensitivity, made small in size, reduced in cost and enhanced in precision, and to provide a vibrator.

The changes in vibration due to the substance bonded or adsorbed on a region which keeps the vibrational amplitude larger than fixed value is detected in a disk-shaped vibrator or a cantilever type vibrator, in order to detect matter of mass or mass with a high sensitivity in the detection sensor. The disk-shaped vibrator can be manufactured by using the so-called "Si single crystal" as a structural material by MEMS technique. It is preferable to form unevenness or grooves on the surface of the disk-shaped vibrator, in order to enhance the adhesion efficiency of the molecules or the like of an object of detection.
