Hanay Research Group

We create and use: 

  •  Nanomechanical Sensors,

  •  Nonlinear Systems, and

  •  Microwave Sensors integrated with Microfluidics 

    for studies in novel dynamics, and applications in life and environmental sciences.

Our publications

NEMS MEMS Buckle Nanoelectromechanical Systems

NEMS

Nanoelectromechanical Systems 

NEMS technology offers very small and sensitive devices.

 

We design, fabricate and use NEMS devices for sensing single molecules and nanoparticles.  

We also use NEMS to study bistability and nonlinear effects at the nanoscale.

Cell Radar

Microfluidic-Integrated

Microwave Sensors (MIMS)

We are funded by an ERC Starting Grant to develop a Radar for Cells. 

By using microwave sensors, we aim to detect and characterize human cells in a microfluidics channel.
