CAS Institute of Acoustics develops new type of accelerometer based on a surface-acoustic wave (SAW) sensor

The sensor incorporates a ST-X quartz cantilever beam, utilizing a differential resonator-oscillator structure, and stability is improved using the phase modulation approach. A high frequency sensitivity of 29.7 kHz g-1, good linearity and a lower detection limit (<1×10-4 g) are achieved in the measured results.
