Two wireless, passive remote query magnetism-based glucose sensors, which operate in combination with a mass and volume changing glucose responsive polymer, are presented. One sensor design is based upon the magnetostatic coupling of magnetically soft thin-film elements; as the polymer volume changes in response to glucose concentration so does the magnetostatic coupling between elements. In re...
متن کاملInvestigation of Physical Properties of e-Beam Evaporated CdTe Thin Films for Photovoltaic Application
CdTe thin films with 2.8 µm thickness were deposited by electron beam evaporation method. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to characterize the films. The results of AFM analysis revealed that the CdTe films have uniform surface. CdTe thin films were heat-treated by SnCl2 solution. Structural analysis using XRD s...
متن کاملVibration Energy Harvesting with Pzt Thin Film Micro Device
A micro power generator for harvesting vibration energy by means of a piezoelectric laminated cantilever with inertial mass was designed, fabricated, and characterized. The device was micro machined from a silicon-on-insulator structure coated with a 2μm thick piezoelectric PZT thin film. Interdigitated electrodes (IDE) were applied to achieve higher voltages. A piezoelectric coupling constant ...
متن کاملPerformance Assessment in a Voice Coil Motor for Maximizing the Energy Harvesting with Gait Motions
In this study, an experimental approach is established to assess the performance of different beams coupled to a Voice Coil Motor (VCM) with the aim to maximize mechanically the energy harvesting in the inductive transducer that is included on it. The VCM is extracted from a recycled hard disk drive (HDD) and it is adapted for carrying out experimental tests of energy harvesting. Two individual...
متن کاملA wireless, remote query glucose biosensor based on a pH-sensitive polymer.
This paper describes a wireless, remote query glucose biosensor using a ribbonlike, mass-sensitive magnetoelastic sensor as the transducer. The glucose biosensor is fabricated by first coating the magnetoelastic sensor with a pH-sensitive polymer and upon it a layer of glucose oxidase (GOx). The pH-responsive polymer swells or shrinks, thereby changing mass, respectively, in response to increas...
