description | [Image: see text] Uniformization of mass sensitivity distribution is conducive to the application of the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) in some fields. However, the sensitivity of the QCM sensor surface perpendicular to the displacement direction is higher that of the displacement direction in the mass sensitivity distribution of ring and double-ring QCMs, which leads to poor reproducibility of the sensor. Considering the effect of the electrode structure on the mass sensitivity distribution, we found that for ring- and double-ring-type QCMs, when the elliptical single ring and double-ring electrode structures are combined, an approximately uniform mass sensitivity can be obtained in all directions. Therefore, this study proposes the elliptical single-ring and elliptical double-ring electrode structure design. Through theoretical calculations and three-dimensional finite element analysis verification, a systematic investigation is carried out to quantify the effect of the ratio of the minor axis to the major axis of the elliptical electrode on the mass sensitivity distribution in different directions, and the optimal ratio is found to be 0.8. Comparing the mass sensitivity of the new type of electrodes and the original electrodes, the result shows that the mass sensitivity distribution of the elliptical double-ring electrode structure is more uniform. Hence, these specially designed electrodes are conducive to improving the repeatability. |
