Tuneable Q-Factor of MEMS Cantilevers with Integrated Piezoelectric Thin Films

Tuneable Q-Factor of MEMS Cantilevers with Integrated Piezoelectric Thin Films

In atomic force microscopes (AFM) a resonantly excited, micro-machined cantilever with a tip is used for sensing surface-related properties. When targeting the integration of AFMs into vacuum environments (e.g., for enhancing the performance of scanning electron microscopes), a tuneable Q-factor of...
