Publication number: 20240030887Abstract: A resonator element of the monocrystalline 4H or 6H polytype of silicon carbide. A MEMS device including the resonator element and a substrate, wherein the resonator element and the substrate are not coplanar, and acoustic decoupling of the resonator element and the substrate is at least partially dependent upon a degree to which the resonator element and the substrate are not coplanar. A MEMS gyroscope including the resonator element, a substrate, one or more electrodes disposed proximate the resonator element, and a capacitive gap disposed between each electrode and the resonator element. A MEMS device including the resonator element having has a Q greater than 1,000,000, a phononic crystal substrate, and a gap disposed between a perimeter edge of the resonator element and the phononic crystal substrate, wherein acoustic decoupling of the resonator element and the phononic crystal substrate is at least partially dependent upon a size of the gap.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Farrokh Ayazi, Benoit Hamelin, Jeremy Yang

Patent number: 11777468Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to acoustically decoupled microelectromechanical system devices and, more particularly, to acoustically decoupled microelectromechanical system devices anchored upon phononic crystals. In some embodiments described herein, a device may comprise a resonator, a handle layer, and a pedestal disposed between the resonator and the handle layer, the pedestal connecting the resonator to the handle layer. In the devices described herein, the resonator and the handle layer may be non-coplanar. In some embodiments, the handle layer comprises a phononic crystal to acoustically decouple the resonator from the substrate of the handle layer.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2019Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Georgia Tech Research CorporationInventors: Farrokh Ayazi, Benoit Hamelin, Jeremy Yang

Patent number: 4382511Abstract: A cardboard package for a group of bottles or any containers of a generally cylindrical shape has a flat binder encircling its lateral surfaces. The binder is held in the plane of equilibrium of the full package by deformable structures on each of the corners of the lateral surfaces.When the binder is pulled the deformable structures collapse thus reducing the periphery of the package and the excess loop of the binder can be used as a handle. (Based on FIG. 2).Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 1981Date of Patent: May 10, 1983Assignee: Brasseries Kronenbourg S.A.Inventors: Benoit Hamelin, Brigitte Constant
