Abstract: In this article, we present a new contact resonance atomic force microscopy-based method utilizing a square, plate-like microsensor to accurately estimate viscoelastic sample properties. A theoretical derivation, based on ...

Abstract: Numerous nanometrology techniques concerned with probing a wide range of frequency-dependent properties would benefit from a cantilevered sensor with tunable natural frequencies. In this work, we propose a method to ...

Abstract: Abstract. This article investigates analytically and experimentally the mechano-chemo-electrical behavior of ionic polymer–metal composite (IPMC) and engineered IPMC (eIPMC) sensors under extensional loading. To predict ...
