Through-thickness coupling of diffusion and viscoelastic relaxation in the transient bending of bilayer microcantilevers
YingCheng Zhou, Kosuke Minami, Genki Yoshikawa
Static-mode microcantilever sensors detect chemical analytes through the bending of a bilayer beam whose polymer coating swells upon absorption. The transient bending is usually mo…

Maximum signal-to-noise ratio enhancement by averaging under a limited measurement time
YingCheng Zhou, Kosuke Minami, Genki Yoshikawa +1
Averaging through repetitive measurement is a ubiquitous strategy for improving signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and is commonly assumed to yield a enhancement with the numbe…

An Analytical Model of Sorption-Induced Static Mode Nanomechanical Sensing for Multi-Component Analytes
Kosuke Minami, Genki Yoshikawa
Nanomechanical sensors and their arrays have attracted significant attention for detecting, distinguishing, and identifying target analytes, especially complex mixtures of odors. I…
