High sensitivity piezoresistive cantilever sensor for biomolecular detection
Micro-cantilevers are now gaining popularity in biomolecular sensing. Monitoring and mass detection of biological species can be accurately determined using the microor nanoscale cantilevers. The targeted biological molecules are first immobilized onto the microcantilever which is later determined through static or dynamic techniques. Optical detection method is employed to determine the deflec...
متن کاملHigh sensitivity piezoresistive cantilever design and optimization for analyte-receptor binding
The mechanical design and optimization of piezoresistive cantilevers for biosensing applications is studied using finite element analysis. The change of relative resistivity of piezoresistive microcantilevers is analyzed in the presence of the chemical reaction at the receptor surface under the condition of oscillating flow. Chemo-mechanical binding forces have been analyzed in order to underst...
متن کاملHigh-Performance Piezoresistive MEMS Strain Sensor with Low Thermal Sensitivity
This paper presents the experimental evaluation of a new piezoresistive MEMS strain sensor. Geometric characteristics of the sensor silicon carrier have been employed to improve the sensor sensitivity. Surface features or trenches have been introduced in the vicinity of the sensing elements. These features create stress concentration regions (SCRs) and as a result, the strain/stress field was a...
متن کاملPiezoresistive Cantilever Optimization and Applications
Piezoresistors are commonly used in microsystems for transducing force, displacement, pressure and acceleration. Silicon piezoresistors can be fabricated using ion implantation, diffusion or epitaxy and are widely used for their low cost and electronic readout. However, the design of piezoresistive cantilevers is complicated by coupling between design parameters as well as fabrication and appli...
متن کاملPiezoresistive cantilever force-clamp system.
We present a microelectromechanical device-based tool, namely, a force-clamp system that sets or "clamps" the scaled force and can apply designed loading profiles (e.g., constant, sinusoidal) of a desired magnitude. The system implements a piezoresistive cantilever as a force sensor and the built-in capacitive sensor of a piezoelectric actuator as a displacement sensor, such that sample indenta...
