Zhilenis, and Ch. K. Petrovskil Piezoelectric [i-4] and manganin [5-6] pressure converters are usually used to measure impulsive pressures in gases and condensed media, A shortcomng of piezoelectric sensors is their high resistivity (lO~i-1012 ~'m), which demands special connecting cables and matching apparatus. On the other hand, manganin sensors have a very low resistivity (5"10 -7 S'm) together with a low sensitivity to pressure. Therefore, they are of little use for measurement of pressures below several hundred MPa. These shortcomings do not occur in converters based on semiconductor materials sensitive to volume compression, such as germanium, gallium antimonide, and solid solutions of gallium arsenide and aluminum [7-9]. These materials have resistivities of several hundred ~'m and are tens of times more sensitive to pressure than manganin. In our opinion the most promising of these are sensors based on solid solutions of gallium arsenide and aluminum, Together with high pressure sensitivity (0.3-0,6 V/100 MPa) which is only weakly temperature dependent TI - Semiconductor impulsive pressure sensor JF - Combustion, Explosion, and Shock Waves DO - 10.1007/BF00749276 DA - 2004-11-20 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/springer-journals/semiconductor-impulsive-pressure-sensor-FSpBQfRYGP SP - 256 EP - 258 VL - 22 IS - 2 DP - DeepDyve ER -
