Design of sub-1g microelectromechanical systems accelerometers

This paper presents a design of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) accelerometers for sensing sub-1g (g = 9.8 m/s2) acceleration. The accelerometer has a high-density proof mass to suppress the Brownian noise that dominates the output noise of the sensor. The low-temperature (
