Actuator and Microsystems, Lyon. France. June 10-14,2007 Outline Abstract Introduction Algorithm fabrication 3-D computer aided simulation Conclusion Reference Abstract GA homopolar motor concept model MEMS structure introduction First invented in 1821 by the famous ninetieth century English scientist Michael Faraday (1791-1867), he built a type of electric motor which nowadays is referred to as a homopolar motor. Michael Faraday introduction What is “Homopolar” ? -> Requiring only the same electric polarity for its operation, substituting the word “same” with its Greek equivalent homos one arrives at the name homopolar. introduction Homopolar motor Current, magnetic field and magnetic force directions. Here the exerted torque causes the disc to rotate in an anti-clockwise direction. introduction general DC motor introduction Homopolar DC motor compared with other DC motors Advantage Disadvantage simple high current requirement which is typically mitigated by using superconducting wires compact no force ripple do not require current or magnetic field controllers The liquid rotor simplifies electrical connection to the rotating part and reduces friction and power loss. Introduction • Homopolar Motor，made with drywall screw, alkaline cell, wire, and neodymium disk magnet. The screw and magnet contact the bottom of the battery cell and are held up by magnetic attraction. homopolar electric motor • The homopolar micromotor consists of a mercury droplet as the liquid rotor. Algorithm Faraday’s setup: magnet, disk and closing wire. Rotational torques acting on the magnet and on the closing wire. Algorithm Electric field(E) electric charge (q) Magnetic field(B)velocity of the particle (v) Algorithm the force on a point charge due to electromagnetic fields ： Lorentz Force Equation Faraday’s law of induction ： is the magnetic flux through the loop. is the electromotive force(EMF) experienced.

Fig. Simulation result for magnetic field and current distribution in the micromotor 3-D computer aided simulation Fig. The magnetic flux density zFig. the current density distribution in the component magnitude on top of the rotor and top silicon part magnet. The magnet diameter should be as big as possible. The distance between the magnet surface and bottom of the mercury droplet should be kept at a minimum. Increasing the mass of the thickness of the top silicon does not change the electromagnetic force. Result Fig. Electromagnetic force vs. electric current. The output of electrostatic MEMS micromotor which is in the order of pN-m. The high-power MEMS electric induction motors needs power more than 100V . Fig. Measured output RPM vs. current. Because the measurement setup limitations.The author mention that the micromotor can rotate much faster than what is indicate in the figure(300 round per minute (rpm)) Conclusions Successfully simulated and fabricated a homopolar micromotor with a liquid rotor. The simulation result show that important parameters in designing the micromotor are the magnet diameter and the thickness of the bottom silicon which controls the distance between the surface and the bottom the magnet metal liquid. The other important parameter to increase both torque and rpm is the size of the hole in the top silicon which control the path length in the force equation. reference A SIMPLE ROLLING HOMOPOLAR MOTOR(Seán M.
