Quartz Tuning Fork as Humidity Sensor
Journal of Nanomedicine & Nanotechnology, 2017 This paper highlight, a novel and simple solution growth method to develop the deposition of nanocrystalline ZnO films on QTF to act as sensor, integrating merits of both SILAR and CBD techniques. The obtained film is characterized by high deposition rate, high film and used for the humidity sensing.

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 27-82., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Spring constant of a tuning-fork sensor for dynamic force microscopy
Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2012 We present an overview of experimental and numerical methods to determine the spring constant of a quartz tuning fork in qPlus configuration. The simple calculation for a rectangular cantilever is compared to the values obtained by the analysis of the ...

Controlling the quality factor of a tuning-fork resonance between 9 K and 300 K for scanning-probe microscopy [PDF]
, 2011 We study the dynamic response of a mechanical quartz tuning fork in the temperature range from 9 K to 300 K. Since the quality factor Q of the resonance strongly depends on temperature, we implement a procedure to control the quality factor of the ...
