Microelectromechanical system (MEMS) based capacitive pressure sensor designs with improved sensitivity is always a matter of great concern and the recent developments in such a design is the MEMS capacitive pressure sensor with bossed diaphragm.The bossed diaphragm model improves ... Read More
Bolometer is a thermal infrared sensor used for measuring the intensity of radiation via the heating of a material due to the radiations. A bolometer consists of an absorptive element, a thin layered material, connected to a thermal reservoir. The result is that any radiation received on ... Read More
Electro-active polymer (EAP) based actuators are one of the suitable contenders for use in artificial muscles based bio-medical application because of their bio compatibility and lower active actuation voltage requirement phenomenon. At present Ionic polymer metal composites (IPMC), a ... Read More
Interfacial structures/pattern, especially with small-scale dimensions, are important to the chemistry of materials in determining the optical, electrical, mechanical, or other physical properties of novel materials. Polymers are often used for surface patterning. The diversity, the ... Read More
The hearing impairment is affecting more than 360 million people all over the world.In India alone, 63 million people suffer from the significant auditory loss. Conventional hearing aids suffer from reliability, practicality and social stigma concerns. The totally implantable devices ... Read More
A Piezoelectric Directional Microphone is demonstrated based on a bio-mimetic design inspired by the parasitoid fly Ormia ochracea using the PiezoMUMPs multi-user foundry. The device simulation was conducted using COMSOL Multiphysics® software which achieves a directional sound field ... Read More
Piezo buzzers, made of piezoelectric material glued on a brass plate, are usually used as signaler, but the buzzer can also be used to convert mechanical into electrical energy. If acceleration influences the buzzer, the structure is bent by its mass and a voltage can be measured between ... Read More
Microarrays are extensively used in modern biology as tools of multiplexed, high throughput analysis to study thousands of genes and their expression inside cells at once [1]. The basic principle of a microarray is quantitative detection of fluorophore tagged DNA. Use of this method ... Read More
We present a novel method for concentrating and focusing small analytes by taking advantage of the nonuniform ion distributions produced by thick electric double layers (EDLs) in nanochannels with heterogeneous surface charge. Specifically, we apply a voltage bias to a gate electrode ... Read More
The objective of this research is to design a millimeter scale broadband energy harvester device through the use of a multi-cantilever beam approach with a non-linear geometry. In this research, we use COMSOL Multiphysics® software to design, simulate and analyze the voltage and power ... Read More
