  • Micro-electromechanical system
    Patent number: 12522497
    Abstract: A micro-electromechanical system (1) comprising: a sensor device (2), with a measuring deformer (3) exhibiting an effective temperature T1; a high-frequency resonator (4) that is mechanically coupled to the sensor device (2) and can interact with the measuring deformer (3); an energy converter (7) that is operatively connected to the high-frequency resonator (4) and is configured to excite the high-frequency resonator (4) into a vibration state, wherein, through the interaction of the vibrating high-frequency resonator (4) with the measuring deformer (3), energy can be transferred from the measuring deformer (3) to the high-frequency resonator (4) in such a manner that the measuring deformer (3) after the energy transfer exhibits an effective temperature T2 lower than T1.
    Type: Grant
