Casimir forces on a silicon micromechanical chip.
Quantum fluctuations give rise to van der Waals and Casimir forces that dominate the interaction between electrically neutral objects at sub-micron separations. Under the trend of miniaturization, such quantum electrodynamical effects are expected to play an important role in micro- and nano-mechanical devices. Nevertheless, utilization of Casimir forces on the chip level remains a major challe...
متن کاملMicromechanical Characterization of Polysilicon Films through On-Chip Tests
When the dimensions of polycrystalline structures become comparable to the average grain size, some reliability issues can be reported for the moving parts of inertial microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). Not only the overall behavior of the device turns out to be affected by a large scattering, but also the sensitivity to imperfections gets enhanced. In this work, through on-chip tests, we e...
متن کاملHigher-Mode Free-Free Beam Micromechanical Resonators
Polysilicon free-free beam micromechanical resonators based on MEMS technology operating in second and third-mode flexural vibrations have been demonstrated at frequencies as high as 102 MHz with Q’s on the order of 11,500. Via strategic placement of electrodes, and careful determination of the exact support beam attachment locations that minimize anchor loss, these new resonators actually exhi...
متن کاملOn-chip latex agglutination immunoassay readout by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.
We describe a new class of impedance-based lab-on-chip immunosensors in which the immunoagglutination of latex is monitored by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Antibody-coated latex microspheres agglutinated in the presence of target antigens are precipitated from solution between interdigitated microsized electrodes on a chip. Impedance spectra are reproducibly measured in the 0.1...
متن کاملOn-Chip Memory Architecture Exploration of Embedded System on Chip
Today’s feature-rich multimedia products require embedded system solution with complex System-on-Chip (SoC) to meet market expectations of high performance at low cost and lower energy consumption. SoCs are complex designs with multiple embedded processors, memory subsystems, and application specific peripherals. The memory architecture of embedded SoCs strongly influences the area, power and p...
