Finite Size Effect on Nanomechanical Mass Detection: Role of Surface Elasticity

open access: yes, 2011
Nanomechanical resonators have recently been highlighted because of their remarkable ability to perform the sensing and detection. Since the nanomechanical resonators are characterized by large surface-to-volume ratio, it is implied that the surface ...

Development of nanowire devices with quantum functionalities

open access: yes, 2015
Silicon has dominated the microelectronics industry for the last 50 years. With its zero nuclear spin isotope (28Si) and low spin orbit coupling, it is believed that silicon can become an excellent host material for an entirely new generation of devices ...
