This paper reports the development of a MEMS based aligned carbon nanotube, thermal surface shear stress sensor for micro shear stress sensing applications. This paper is focused on the theory of alignment of CNTs during sensing element fabrication as well as experimental and calibration results from sensor testing. It is found that CNTs can be routinely aligned between surface micromachined gold electrodes using AC dielectrophoresis to form shear stress sensing elements. In order to fabricate the sensing element, a 25 Vp-p electric field at 3 MHz was used to form a ~150 μm wide line of aligned CNTs. The measured resistance of the sensing element was 580 Ω. The fabricated CNT shear stress sensor has been tested by bonding a Plexiglas channel to the electrode chip in order to create a 2D internal flow. The CNT shear stress sensor was found to have an average TCR of −0.0112%/°C or −0.0691Ω/°C and a current to voltage ratio of 0.07 mA/V.
