  • Abstract
    A novel angle sensor which works based on Lorentz force and capacitors is presented. The structure consists of two bending beams and the angle will expose by displacement of the beams. The bulk micromachining technology is employed to fabricate the sensor on silicon substrate. The suggested micro angle sensor is accurate and contactless.
