A thin film, high sensitivity, two terminal, semiconductor strain sensor.A two terminal semiconductor strain sensor which makes use of an evaporated piezoelectric layer to modulate the forward current-voltage characteristics of a thin film diode is described. The physical mechanisms are discussed and compared to other types of semiconductor sensors. Application to the electromechanical design of ultraminiature pressure transducers is discussed.
