Original Abstract

In this paper a new research and development of the pressure sensors utilizing carbon nanotubes (CNTs) arrays as the electron source in emission sensor or as the surface increase element in capacitance sensor are presented. Both sensors consisted of the two parts; elastic electrode-sensing film fabricated by wet anisotropic etching process and solid electrode. The emission sensor has elastic anode electrode with membrane and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) arrays cathode in the vacuum chamber. The capacitance sensor has the same topology extensive by CNT on both electrodes without vacuum chamber. The MWCNTs were grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD).
