Analysis of a Casimir-driven Parametric Amplifier with Resilience to Casimir Pull-in for MEMS Single-Point Magnetic Gradiometry
Josh Javor, Zhancheng Yao, Matthias Imboden +2
The Casimir Force, a quantum mechanical effect, has been observed in several microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) platforms. Due to its extreme sensitivity to the separation of tw…
Searching for the Casimir Energy
Diego Pérez-Morelo, Alexander Stange, Richard W. Lally +5
In this article, we present a nano-electromechanical system (NEMS) designed to detect changes in the Casimir Energy. The Casimir effect is a result of the appearance of quantum flu…
Building a Casimir Metrology Platform with a Commercial MEMS Accelerometer
Alexander Stange, Matthias Imboden, Josh Javor +2
The Casimir Effect is a physical manifestation of quantum fluctuations of the electromagnetic vacuum. When two metal plates are placed closely together, typically much less than a…
High Performance, Continuously Tunable Microwave Filters using MEMS Devices with Very Large, Controlled, Out-of-Plane Actuation
Jackson Chang, Michael Holyoak, George Kannell +3
Software defined radios (SDR) in the microwave X and K bands offer the promise of low cost, programmable operation with real-time frequency agility. However, the real world in whic…
High speed control of electro-mechanical transduction Advanced Drive Techniques for Optimized Step-and-Settle Response of MEMS Micromirrors
Matthias Imboden, Jackson Chang, Corey Pollock +6
Micro/Nano Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS/NEMS) provide the engineer with a powerful set of solutions to a wide variety of technical challenges. However, because they are mechani…
Design of a Casimir-driven parametric amplifier
M. Imboden, J. Morrison, D. K. Campbell +1
In this paper, we discuss a design for a MEMS parametric amplifier modulated by the Casimir force. We present the theory for such a device and show that it allows for the implement…
