NEMS
@ Bilkent ME
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
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.
