The dynamic and sensing performances of nanomechanical resonators with their different boundary conditions are studied based on surface elasticity-based modeling and simulation. Specifically, the effect of surface stress is included in Euler-Bernoulli beam model for different boundary conditions. It is shown that the surface effect on the intrinsic elastic property of nanowire is independent of boundary conditions, while these boundary conditions affect the frequency behavior of nanowire resonator. The detection sensitivity of nanowire resonator is remarkably found to depend on the boundary conditions such that double-clamping boundary condition results in the higher mass sensitivity of the resonator in comparison with simple-support or cantilever boundary condition. Furthermore, we show that the frequency shift of nanowire resonator due to mass adsorption is determined by its length, whereas the frequency shift is almost independent of its thickness. This study enables a design principle providing an insight into how the dynamic and sensing performances of nanomechanical resonator is determined and tuned.

We describe a method for the detection of nanometer scale displacements of nanoelectromechanical resonators. We also present an analysis of the mechanical motion of these devices. We evaluate the effectiveness of the detection technique by detecting displacements from a series of nanomechanical doubly clamped beam resonators with decreasing dimensions.

짧은 바깥쪽 탄소 나노튜브를 가진 이중벽 탄소 나노튜브 공진기의 경우, 자유로운 끝은 긴 안쪽 벽의 진동에 중요한 역할을 한다. 짧은 안쪽 탄소 나노튜브를 가진 이중벽 카본 나노튜브 공진기의 경우, 안쪽은 부드러운 코어로 작동하여 기본 주파수가 이들의 길이에 의해 영향을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 서로 다른 길이를 가지고 나노튜브로 구성된 이중벽 탄소 나노튜브 공진기의 주파수 변화를 분석한다. 분석 결과, 안쪽 혹은 바깥쪽 탄소 나노튜브 길이를 제어하는 다양한 주파수 소자를 구현하는데 널리 응용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Nano and micro structure-based biosensors are promising tool for label-free detection of biomolecular interactions with great accuracy. This review gives a brief survey on nano and micro platforms to sense a variety of analytes such as DNA, proteins and viruses. Among incredible nano and micro structure for bio-analytical applications, the scope of this paper will be limited to micro and nano resonators and nanowire field-effect transistors. Nanomechanical motion of the resonators transducers biological information to readable signals. They are commonly combined with an optical, capacitive or piezo-resistive detection systems. Binding of target molecule to the modified surface of nanowire modulates the current of the nanowire through electrical field-effect. Both detection methods have advantages of label-free, real-time and high sensitive detection. These structures can be extended to fabricate array-type sensors for multiplexed detection and high-throughput analysis. The biosensors based on these structures will be applied to lab-on-a-chip platforms and point-of-care diagnostics. Basic concepts including detection mechanisms and trends in their fields will be covered in this review.
