The patterning of carbon nanostructures by electron beam stimulated oxidation is described. Sputter deposited carbon thin films and carbon nanotubes are locally oxidized in a scanning electron microscope using injected water vapor. The resulting structures are examined with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Electrical resistance obtained post-processing is comparable to as-deposited values. Etched linewidths on the order of 20nm are demonstrated along with sub-2nm wide carbon wires.

This is the first report on a nanofibrous surface patterning process using nano-meshed polymer microcapsules for biological applications. The nano-meshed microcapsules were formed using a method named phase separation assisted electrospray. Features of the nano-meshed microcapsules were found to be tunable by adjusting process conditions. Contrary to non-woven mats formed of continuous nanofibers via conventional electrospinning, nano-meshed microcapsule reported herein enabled a single step nanofibrous surface patterning by electrostatic focusing following the microcapsule formation. The biodegradable polylactic acid made microcapsules were patterned onto a glass substrate with up to 500¿m resolution and human hepatocyte cells were cultured on the patterned areas to confirm biocompatibility of the microcapsule.
这是关于纳米纤维表面图案化过程中使用纳米网状聚合物微胶囊的生物应用的第一份报告。采用相分离辅助电喷雾法制备纳米微胶囊。通过调整工艺条件,发现纳米微胶囊的性能是可调的。与传统静电纺丝形成的连续纳米纤维形成的无纺布垫相反,本文报道的纳米网微胶囊在微胶囊形成后通过静电聚焦实现了单步纳米纤维表面图图化。将可生物降解的聚乳酸制成的微胶囊在分辨率高达500 μ m的玻璃基板上进行图像化,并在图像化区域培养人肝细胞以确认微胶囊的生物相容性。

This article covers investigations on an original, almost fully biodegradable and flexible mechanical switch device fabricated from cellulose composite. The cellulose films, mainly composed of microfibrils, revealed a high surface roughness and poor dielectric properties making them unsuitable substrates for electronic applications. By coating the cellulose film with a specific polyimide, these drawbacks were overcome. The mechanical switch was operated through the deflection of an electrostatically actuated cantilever beam. Its displacement, induced by the electrostatic force, was validated and the switch ON state detection was performed for an actuation voltage of 55 V and for a beam-substrate distance around 30 ¿m.
本文研究了一种原始的、几乎完全可生物降解的、柔性的由纤维素复合材料制成的机械开关装置。纤维素薄膜主要由微纤维组成,表面粗糙度高,介电性能差,不适合用于电子应用。通过在纤维素薄膜上涂上一种特殊的聚酰亚胺,克服了这些缺点。机械开关是通过静电驱动悬臂梁的偏转来操作的。在55 V的驱动电压和30 m左右的光束-衬底距离下,验证了其由静电力引起的位移,并进行了开关ON状态检测。

We present the design, fabrication, and measurement of an RF MEMS (Radio Frequency Micro-Electromechanical System) switched capacitor that exhibits reduced sensitivity to residual stress and temperature. The device is based on a circularly symmetric geometry with arc-type springs placed between the anchors and suspended beam. This design compensates for the effects of the residual biaxial stress in the beam, resulting in a pull-in voltage slope versus temperature of only -50 mV/ °C from -5 °C to 95 °C. Reducing the device sensitivity to residual stress improves the performance uniformity on a wafer-scale, and from wafer-to-wafer lots.
我们提出了一种射频微机电系统(RF MEMS)开关电容器的设计、制造和测量,该电容器对残余应力和温度的灵敏度降低。该装置基于圆形对称几何结构,在锚和悬梁之间放置弧形弹簧。这种设计补偿了梁中残余双轴应力的影响,导致从-5°C到95°C的拉入电压随温度的斜率仅为-50 mV/°C。降低器件对残余应力的敏感性可以提高晶圆尺度和晶圆批次之间的性能均匀性。

We present 17.5-MHz and 42.7-MHz low-noise Colpitts oscillators employing capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (CMUTs), each composed of a thousand resonator cells electrically connected in parallel. The massive parallelism lowers the motional impedance, and thus, reduces frequency noise and provides better matching to low-noise oscillator topologies. The 42.7-MHz oscillator achieved a phase noise of -105 dBc/Hz and -148 dBc/Hz at offset frequencies of 1 kHz and 1 MHz, respectively in air. The performance is comparable to MEMS oscillators based on resonators with high Q in vacuum. The lowest Allan deviation of the oscillator was measured to be 4.7 × 10-9 implying a mass resolution of 0.96 attogram per membrane. In addition, using the 17.5-MHz CMUT resonator, the performance of the Colpitts topology is compared to that of the amplifier based oscillator topology.
我们提出了17.5 mhz和42.7 mhz的低噪声科尔皮茨振荡器,采用电容式微机械超声换能器(CMUTs),每个由一千个并联电连接的谐振腔组成。大量的并行性降低了运动阻抗,从而降低了频率噪声,并提供了更好的匹配低噪声振荡器拓扑结构。42.7 MHz振荡器在空气中分别在1 kHz和1 MHz的偏置频率下实现了-105 dBc/Hz和-148 dBc/Hz的相位噪声。其性能可与基于真空高Q谐振器的MEMS振荡器相媲美。振荡器的最小艾伦偏差测量为4.7 × 10-9,这意味着每膜的质量分辨率为0.96阿克。此外,使用17.5 mhz CMUT谐振器,比较了Colpitts拓扑与基于放大器的振荡器拓扑的性能。

This paper reports the feasibility of the fabrication of high aspect ratio structures on substrates via dry etching through a stencil mask placed onto the sample. It demonstrates the possibility to use standard equipment and processes with this novel masking technique, which allows the patterning of fragile and pre-structured surfaces, and avoids the use of resist or additional coating of the sample, reducing costs and processing time. Aspect ratios as high as 13:1 and pattern transfer with a gap of 100 ¿m are demonstrated.

Flexible Tactile Sensor Sheet with Liquid Filter for Shear Force Detection 带液体过滤器的柔性触觉传感器片,用于剪切力检测

We propose a tactile sensor with standing cantilevers embedded in viscous liquid. The viscous liquid was covered with an elastic body. Since the micro cantilevers were kept free in the liquid, they can detect large shear forces without damaging. When shear forces were applied to the sensor surface, they deform the elastic body and the viscous liquid. Since the standing cantilevers follow deformations of viscous liquid, shear forces can be detected with resistance changes of the cantilevers. If the shear force was kept constant, the cantilevers in liquid return to their initial posture. From this mechanism, the proposed sensor can detect the change of shear forces without damaging. Since the standing cantilever in single liquid filter detect the force applied to its surface. It becomes difficult to detect the contact position with the proposed sensor. Therefore, we arranged channel in the liquid filter to control the liquid flow. By arranging standing cantilevers into the channel, the cantilever's resistance changes with the distance from the contact position. In this paper, we measured the relationship between the contact position and the resistance changes of the cantilevers arranged in channel.
我们提出了一种将站立悬臂嵌入粘性液体的触觉传感器。粘性液体被弹性体覆盖。由于微悬臂梁在液体中保持自由,它们可以检测到大的剪切力而不会损坏。当剪切力作用于传感器表面时,会使弹性体和粘性液体发生变形。由于悬臂梁随粘性液体的变形而存在,因此可以通过悬臂梁的阻力变化来检测剪力。当剪切力保持不变时,液体中的悬臂梁恢复到初始状态。基于这一机制,该传感器可以在不损坏的情况下检测剪切力的变化。由于单液体过滤器的立悬臂可以检测施加在其表面的力。使用所提出的传感器检测接触位置变得困难。因此,我们在液体过滤器中设置通道来控制液体的流动。通过在通道中布置站立的悬臂梁,悬臂梁的阻力随着与接触位置的距离而变化。本文测量了布置在沟槽中的悬臂梁的接触位置与阻力变化的关系。

To improve the force output of microactuators, this work focuses on actuators driven by pressurized gasses or liquids. Despite their well known ability to generate high actuation forces, hydraulic actuators remain uncommon in microsystems. This is both due to the difficulty of fabricating these microactuators with the existing micromachining processes and to the lack of adequate microseals. This paper describes how to overcome these limitations with a combination of anisotropic micromachining, UV definable polymers and low temperature bonding. The functionality of these actuators is proven by extensive measurements which showed that actuation forces of 0.1 N can be achieved for actuators with an active cross-section of 0.15 mm2. This is an order of magnitude higher than what is reported for classic MEMS actuators of similar size.
为了提高微执行器的力输出,本研究重点研究了由加压气体或液体驱动的微执行器。尽管液压致动器具有众所周知的高致动力,但在微系统中仍不常见。这是由于用现有的微加工工艺制造这些微致动器的困难和缺乏足够的微密封。本文介绍了如何通过结合各向异性微加工、UV可定义聚合物和低温键合来克服这些限制。这些致动器的功能通过广泛的测量证明,致动器的主动横截面为0.15 mm2,致动力为0.1 N。这比类似尺寸的经典MEMS致动器高出一个数量级。

We present the first report of radio control of a cyborg beetle in free-flight. The microsystem (Figs. 1,2) consisted of a radio-frequency receiver assembly, a micro battery and a live giant flower beetle platform (Mecynorhina polyphemus or Mecynorhina torquata). The assembly had six electrode stimulators implanted into the left and right optic lobes, brain, posterior pronotum (counter electrode), right and left basalar flight muscles. Initiation and cessation of flight were accomplished by optic lobe stimulation while muscular stimulation of either right or left basalar flight muscles (referenced to the posterior pronotum electrode) elicited left or right turns, respectively. Flight commands were wirelessly transferred to the beetle-mounted system (running BeetleBrain v1.0 code) via an RF transmitter operated by a laptop running custom software (BeetleCo mmander v1.0) through a USB/Serial interface.

In this paper we present a novel low temperature, CMOS compatible, direct top-down nano-fabrication process employing ALD tungsten (WALD) as a structural material for nano-electro-mechanical systems (NEMS). Using this process doubly clamped suspended NEMS devices have been successfully fabricated and demonstrated. The devices have been observed to operate comparably to 2-terminal electrostatic carbon nanotube (CNT) switches, and MEMS tunneling devices. A lifetime in excess of 660,500 cycles has been observed under low-current-limited operating conditions. Under these conditions the device behavior is stable, reproducible and hysterisis free, resembling that of MEMS tunneling devices.
在本文中,我们提出了一种新的低温,CMOS兼容,直接自上而下的纳米制造工艺,采用ALD钨(WALD)作为纳米机电系统(NEMS)的结构材料。利用该工艺已成功地制作和演示了双夹紧悬浮式NEMS器件。该器件已被观察到与2端静电碳纳米管(CNT)开关和MEMS隧道器件相媲美。在低电流限制的工作条件下,寿命超过660,500次。在这些条件下,器件行为稳定,可重复且无迟滞,类似于MEMS隧道器件。
