Abstract :
Directional stress and temperature effects are simultaneously measured and decoupled in micromachined membrane mirrors using a group of three ion implanted silicon resistors with different orientations. In a demonstration mirror, the sensors show compressive thermal stress changes of about -0.5plusmn0.08 MPa/degC and -0.66plusmn0.09 MPa/degC in the x and y-direction respectively
