  • Abstract
    This paper is concerned with the theoretical comparison of the heat transfer mechanisms through the heated microbridges made from different materials: polysilicon and platinum. The results are used for the evaluation of the different possible solutions for microheaters in surface micromachined MEMS sensors.
