Abstract :
A gyroscope based on Coriolis effect and fabricated by Carbon Nanotube (CNT) will be presented. A CNT is vibration at x direction, when there a rotation around z direction, acceleration happens to the y direction. The natural frequency of MWCNT is depending on the inner diameter, outer diameter and length. The CNT was driven by the electrostatic force to its nature frequency. A CNT with a length of 1 μm was used for emitter and an anode with a bias angle was etched by Focused Ion Beam (FIB) which was set to the opposite to the CNT. An electrode was set near the CNT tip, which was employed to pulling the CNT for mechanical resonances by an AC voltage.
