Mechanical Science and Engineering Professors Min-Feng Yu and Alexander Vakakis, and Ph.D. Student Hanna Cho, along with Aerospace Engineering Professors Lawrence Bergman and Michael McFarland, have designed and demonstrated a conceptually new nonlinear nanomechanical resonator that offers significantly expanded resonance bandwidth and high sensitivity sensing performance. They describe their work in a paper accepted for publication and posted online this week in the journal Nano Letters.
