In this paper, thin film diamond resonators on Si wafer for high sensitivity force sensing have been developed. Patterned diamond structures have been formed on Ir/YSZ/Si substrate. The completed diamond resonator of cantilever shows a resonance frequency of 51.0 kHz with a quality factor of 14911. The both clamped resonator shows the force sensitivity of 3.36Ɨ10 <sup xmlns:mml=ā€œhttp://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathMLā€ xmlns:xlink=ā€œhttp://www.w3.org/1999/xlinkā€&gt;-13&lt;/sup> N/Hz <sup xmlns:mml=ā€œhttp://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathMLā€ xmlns:xlink=ā€œhttp://www.w3.org/1999/xlinkā€&gt;0.5&lt;/sup> at 229.3 kHz with 23500 of Q factor. While the crystallites and surface roughness are required to be improved, the patterned diamond resonator can be used as a high sensitive physicochemical sensing tool.
