This paper demonstrates for the first time the use of meta-materials (MTM) in bulk acoustic wave resonators (BARs) for sensing applications under atmospheric pressure conditions. Key is the observation that implementing square holes in the BARs modifies their specific surface area (area-to-volume ratio) and lowers their mass. We establish through simulations and measurements that increasing the perforation...
This paper investigates the nonlinear effects introduced by the intermolecular forces on the static and harmonic behavior of electrostatically transduced nano-electromechanical (NEM) resonators using a lumped parameter model. We compute the pull-in parameters and study the full impact of the intermolecular forces on the spring softening effect, computing the non-linear terms using a Taylor expansion...
It is known that a system subject to structured uncertainty satisfies robust stability if each component of its subsystems is by its own stable for all perturbations less than a maximum bound. It is on the other hand said to have satisfied robust performance if all the functions mapping all subsystem inputs to the corresponding outputs have bounded norms. Here we introduce an optimization scheme that...
