Tailored measurement setup for the contactless characterization of MEMS resonators at the wafer level [PDF]
Journal of Sensors and Sensor SystemsStatistical analysis of microelectromechanical system (MEMS) resonator devices in an early stage of device fabrication is challenging since actuation and sensing of the frequency-dependent response characteristics are often impossible before electrical ...

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.The unrolling of the peltate leaves in Syngonium podophyllum is analyzed and quantified (left‐hand side to center). These measurements serve to verify a mathematical model for leaf unrolling based on the model used in Schmidt (2007). An additional formula for obtaining a layer mismatch from a prescribed radius is derived.
