Micro and nanocantilever structures have been used as transducers for a plethora of sensor applications. These transducer technologies have similar shapes, but the material properties and geometrical optimizations needed to improve sensitivity are rather different. This is a record of two...

Resonant microcantilevers are promising transducers for bacteria detection because of their high sensitivities. Surface stress and mass from adsorbates affect the resonant frequency. We developed a novel method for decoupling the frequency contributions of a change in mass and surface stress on a...
