The field of cantilever-based sensing emerged in the mid-1990s and is today a well-known
technology for label-free sensing which holds promise as a technique for cheap, portable …

A microcantilever is a suspended micro-scale beam structure supported at one end which
can bend and/or vibrate when subjected to a load. Microcantilevers are one of the most …

Handbook of Nanophysics: Functional Nanomaterials illustrates the importance of tailoring

We develop a mathematical model for a resonant gas sensor made up of an microplate
electrostatically actuated and attached to the end of a cantilever microbeam. The model …

We demonstrate a resonant gas sensor uniformly coated with a metal-organic framework
(MOF) and excited near the second vibration mode for enhanced sensitivity. The possibility …

A closed-loop circuit is developed in this work for tracking the resonant frequency of silicon
microcantilever mass sensors. The proposed closed-loop system is mainly based on a …
