Abstract :
2D and 3D distributions of magnetic field (B) are detected by moving a poly-Si micro Hall device. First, we confirm that the Hall voltage (VH) is linearly dependent on B. Next, we move the poly-Si micro Hall device in B and measure VH. The distributions of VH are similar to those of B. Therefore, we can detect the 2D and 3D distributions of B by measuring those of VH. This predicts that we can realize a 2D area sensor by aligning poly-Si micro Hall devices in a matrix shape, and 3D spatial sensor by moving the 2D area sensor.
