Silicon-on-Sapphire Pressure Sensors: The Revolutionary Technology Redefining Measurement Accuracy

When standard pressure sensors fail in extreme environments—whether at 200°C in oil & gas downhole applications, under 20,000 PSI in hydrogen fuel systems, or after years of operation drifting beyond acceptable accuracy—engineers turn to Silicon-on-Sapphire pressure sensors. This advanced technology eliminates the fundamental failure mechanisms plaguing conventional piezoresistive sensors by molecularly bonding silicon strain gauges […]

Silicon on Sapphire Pressure Sensors: The Ultimate Guide to Extreme Environment Measurement

Silicon on Sapphire Pressure Sensors

When traditional pressure sensors fail in extreme environments, silicon-on-sapphire pressure sensors emerge as the ultimate solution for mission-critical applications. From the manufacturing floors of St. Louis to the offshore platforms of the Gulf Coast, engineers face an increasingly complex challenge: measuring pressure accurately in conditions that destroy conventional sensors. With temperatures reaching 392°F, pressures exceeding […]
