| abstract |
The invention relates to a spring sensor element 1 comprising carbon nanotube 6 on a support 2. The carbon nanotubes 6 are arranged in CNT blocks 10, 20, 30, 40 and preferably have the same inside a CNT block 10, 20, 30, 40 Length and the same orientation with respect to the carrier 2. Furthermore, at least the highest of the CNT blocks 10, 20, 30, 40 is arranged adjacent to at least two electrical contacts 60, 61, 62. The spring sensor element 1 comprises, in addition to a first CNT block 10 of height H1, at least one further adjacent CNT block 20, 30, 40 of height H2, the heights H1 and H2 differing by at least a factor of 2. |
