Popis: | Traditional MEMS sensing systems do not scale down well to the nanoscale due to resolution and fabrication limitations. Therefore, new sensing systems need to be developed in order to meet the range and resolution requirements of nanoscale mechanical systems. Several nanoscale mechanical sensing systems have emerged that take advantage of nanoscale phenomena to improve the quality of nanoscale sensors. In this paper, we will discuss some of the fundamental limitations in scaling mechanical sensors down to the nanoscale and some of the emerging technologies for nanoscale sensing. |
