摘要：
The letter presents a MEMS-type ionization vacuum sensor based on electron emission from an on-chip thermionic electron source. The sensor employs a multilayer-stacked structure fabricated by anodic bonding technology, showing overall dimensions of 12 x 12 x 3.3 mm(3). Because of the efficient and stable electron emission of an yttrium oxide electron source, the sensor exhibits a wide linear response range from 1 x 10(-4) Pa to 100 Pa with a good repeatability, covering both high and medium vacuum regimes. It provides a new miniature vacuum sensor with a wide measurement range.
