MEMS resonators with electrostatic actuation and piezoresistive readout for sensing applications

MEMS resonators based on internal thermal-piezoresistive amplification are a suitable alternative for sensing applications since they enable high resonance frequencies and high Q-factors. In this work, the principle of operation of this amplification mechanism is modeled, using analytical and lumped...
