Sensing is nowadays an accepted application of phononic crystals with chemical and biosensors for liquid analytes being the perhaps most promising ones. A liquid-filled defect is introduced that turns into a resonant cavity. Similar to the well-known resonant sensors sensitivity can be increased with higher operating frequencies. We introduce a Sandwiched Phononic Crystal (SPC), which applies a resonant cavity located between two stacked layers on top of a SAW device. Key challenges are coupling of surface acoustic wave into the liquid cavities and avoiding scattering of the guided waves into the bulk of the sensor chip.
Abstract
Stehaufkreisel sind faszinierende physikalische Spielzeuge, die scheinbar die Schwerkraft auszutricksen vermögen: Nach anfänglicher Rotation drehen sie sich so um, dass sie schließlich auf der früheren Spitze rotieren. Hochgeschwindigkeits-Videos ermöglichen es, die komplizierten mathematischen Lösungen ihrer Bewegung experimentell zu überprüfen.
