Download or read book Fundamentals of Nanomechanical Resonators written by Silvan Schmid and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-18 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in an updated second edition, this classroom-tested textbook introduces and summarizes the latest models and skills required to design and optimize nanomechanical resonators, taking a top-down approach that uses macroscopic formulas to model the devices. The authors cover the electrical and mechanical aspects of nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS) devices in six expanded and revised chapters on lumped-element model resonators, continuum mechanical resonators, damping, transduction, responsivity, and measurements and noise. The applied approach found in this book is appropriate for engineering students and researchers working with micro and nanomechanical resonators.
