Large-Scale Multi-Frequency Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducer (CMUT) Arrays for Ultrasound Medical Imaging and Therapeutic Applications
DownloadSpring 2020
Ultrasonic transducers capable of operating over multiple frequency bands could have several interesting medical applications including multi-resolution multi-depth imaging for point-of-care ultrasound, imaging-therapy, super-harmonic contrast agent imaging, super-resolution imaging, image-guided...

Metallic thin films for NEMS/MEMS: from fundamental behaviour to microstructural design and fabrication
DownloadFall 2011
The main focus of this thesis is the study of thin metal films in microelectromechanical/nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS), ranging from application to fundamental behaviour. The use of metallic structural components is desirable since they are electrically conductive, optically reflective...

Microcantilever sensor has gained much popularity because of its high sensitivity and selectivity. It consists of a micro-sized cantilever that is usually coated on one side with chemical/biological probe agents to generate strong attraction to target molecules. The interactions between the probe...

Specific detection of Campylobacter jejuni using the bacteriophage NCTC 12673 receptor binding protein as a probe
Download2011
Szymanski, Christine M., Arutyunov, Denis, McDermott, Mark T., Evoy, Stephane, Singh, Amit
Campylobacter jejuni is found in the intestines of poultry, cattle, swine, wild birds and pet animals and is the major cause of foodborne gastroenteritis in developed countries. We report the use of the receptor binding protein (RBP) of Campylobacter bacteriophage NCTC 12673 for the specific...

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...
