Abstract

The thermal-piezoresistive effect in silicon (Si) has attracted great attention toward high-performance resonant devices but still faces major challenges for harsh environment applications. Instead of using Si, this paper, for the first time, reports a thermal-piezoresistive resonator based on a silicon carbide-on-insulator (SiCOI) platform. The resonance frequency simulation, CMOS-compatible fabrication, and thermoresistive properties characterization of the proposed SiCOI resonator are presented. The experimental results show linear current-voltage characteristics and a constant temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) up to 200 °C.
