Thiruvenkatanathan, P and Yan, J and Woodhouse, J and Aziz, A and Seshia, AA (2009) Effects of mechanical and electrical coupling on the parametric sensitivity of mode localized sensors. In: UNSPECIFIED.Full text not available from this repository.
We compare and contrast the effects of two distinctly different mechanisms of coupling (mechanical and electrical) on the parametric sensitivity of micromechanical sensors utilizing mode localization for sensor applications. For the first time, the strong correlation between mode localization and the phenomenon of 'eigenvalue loci-veering' is exploited for accurate quantification of the strength of internal coupling in mode localized sensors. The effects of capacitive coupling-spring tuning on the parametric sensitivity of electrically coupled resonators utilizing this sensing paradigm is also investigated and a mass sensor with sensitivity tunable by over 400% is realized. ©2009 IEEE.
