METHOD AND DEVICE FOR STABILISING MOLECULAR-ELECTRONIC CONVERTER PARAMETRES Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC G01P15/08 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: molecular-electronic converter consists of four electrodes in a closed housing, filled with an electrolyte. Inner electrodes serve as cathodes and peripheral electrodes as anodes. Stabilisation of the parametres is based on regulation of the conversion coefficient and compensation of temperature changes of properties of the electrolyte. To prevent dependency of the pre-cathode concentration gradient of electrolyte on its volume concentration, additional electrodes are placed in the housing, 1 to 10 cm from the converter, and the potential of the said additional electrodes is 100 to 500 mV higher than the potential cathodes, which are at equal potential, and anodes are connected to a stabilised direct current source. As a result, concentration of the electrolyte on the cathode is close to zero. On the additional electrodes, concentration of the electrolyte is determined by volume concentration, and at the anodes, concentration is set such that, current generated by the current source flows between the anode and the cathode.

EFFECT: increased accuracy of measuring linear and angular velocity and acceleration.
