摘要：
We investigated the mechanical coupling between the drive and detection modes of micromachined vibrating rate gyroscopes, and designed and fabricated a gyroscope with a new structure to reduce the coupling. The coupling of the oscillator was measured using a new measurement system with a two-dimensional laser displacement meter. The oscillations were found to have an elliptical motion due to the coupling. When the frequency mismatch was reduced by means of electrostatic frequency tuning with a DC bias voltage, the coupling increased. The new structure, which has independent beams for the drive and detection modes, exhibited weaker coupling; and the resolution was 0.07 degrees/s at a band width of 10 Hz.
