Measurement of the Mass and Rigidity of Adsorbates on a Microcantilever Sensor

  • Daniel Ramos,
  • Montserrat Calleja,
  • Johann Mertens,
  • A. Zaballos and
  • Javier Tamayo

7 September 2007

When microcantilevers are used in the dynamic mode, the resonance shift uponmaterial adsorption depends on the position of the adsorbate along the microcantilever. Wehave previously described that the adsorbate stiffness needs to be considered in add...

Study of the origin of bending induced by bimetallic effect on microcantilever

  • Daniel Ramos,
  • Johann Mertens,
  • Montserrat Calleja and
  • Javier Tamayo

5 September 2007

An analytical model for predicting the deflection and force of a bimaterialcantilever is presented. We introduce the clamping effect characterised by an axial loadupon temperature changes. This new approach predicts a non linear thermal dependence of...
