Flexure-FET biosensor to break the fundamental sensitivity limits of nanobiosensors using nonlinear electromechanical coupling.
In this article, we propose a Flexure-FET (flexure sensitive field effect transistor) ultrasensitive biosensor that utilizes the nonlinear electromechanical coupling to overcome the fundamental sensitivity limits of classical electrical or mechanical nanoscale biosensors. The stiffness of the suspended gate of Flexure-FET changes with the capture of the target biomolecules, and the correspondin...
متن کاملFundamental limits to nonlinear energy harvesting
Ease of miniaturization, and less or no maintenance, among other advantages, have pushed towards replacement of conventional batteries with energy harvesters in particular, vibratory energy harvesters. In the recent years, nonlinearity has been intentionally introduced into the otherwise linear energy harvesters in the hope of increasing the frequency bandwidth and power density. However, funda...
متن کاملProposal of Exponentially Sensitive Stress Based Sensor Using Flexure-fet
In this paper, we demonstrate that a Flexure-FET [1] (flexure sensitive field effect transistor) can dramatically enhance the sensitivity of stress based chem-bio sensors. A Flexure-FET translates any change in the stress of the suspended gate into corresponding change in the drain current of the integrated transistor, thereby offering direct electrical readout of the sensor signal. Moreover, w...
متن کاملSurpassing fundamental limits of oscillators using nonlinear resonators.
In its most basic form an oscillator consists of a resonator driven on resonance, through feedback, to create a periodic signal sustained by a static energy source. The generation of a stable frequency, the basic function of oscillators, is typically achieved by increasing the amplitude of motion of the resonator while remaining within its linear, harmonic regime. Contrary to this conventional ...
متن کاملNonlinear sensitivity Analysis of RCMRF Considering Both Axial and Flexure Effects (RESEARCH NOTE)
Sensitivity analysis of structures considering their nonlinear behavior has recently been an important process in optimal design of them based on new design concepts such as Performance-Based Design (PBD). The main objective of this research is to develop an efficient and applicable method for nonlinear sensitivity analysis of Reinforcement Concrete Moment Resisting Frames (RCMRF) accou...
