A group of researchers from Shibaura Institute of Technology (SIT) developed the Dielectric Elastomer Sensor (DES) to measure the pressure and vibration response in soft fluidic structures.

The microfabricated sensor is constructed using silicon carbide as the substrate and aluminum nitride (AlN) as the piezoelectric film. The piezoelectric coefficient (d33) of AlN is measured using ...
