Design and Fabrication of a Lorentz Force Driven Micro Indenter

A MEMS based micro-actuator driven by electromagnetic force is developed to generate a micro Newton range of force for measuring the mechanical property of living cells or locally stimulating cells. The indenter consists of a probe and a couple of flexible beams with embedded electrodes. The develop...
