Hanay Research Group

We create and use: 

•  Nanomechanical Sensors,

•  Nano-Mechatronic Systems, and

•  Microwave Sensors integrated with Microfluidics 
  
  for studies in novel dynamics,
  and life science applications.

​

NEMS 

Nanoelectromechanical Systems 

NEMS technology provides 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. 

​

​

Our labs

are fully equipped for nanomechanical and microwave research. 

​

Our group is also a member of UNAM, National Nanotech. Research Center. 

​

We are supported by national and EU funds for which we are grateful. 

• ERC Starting Grant

• Marie skłodowska Curie CIG

• Tübitak (Turkish NSF), EEEAG

• Turkish Academy of Sciences (TÜBA)

• The Science Academy, Turkey (Bilim Akademisi)
