MEMS/NEMS AND µFLUIDICS FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS
Vendredi 27 juin 2014 12:30
- Duree : 45 minutes
Lieu : Amphithéâtre MINATEC - 3 parvis Louis Néel - 38000 Grenoble
Orateur : Vincent AGACHE (Project manager in µfluidics, MEMS/NEMS sensors - CEA/LETI/DTBS)
The advances in micro- and nanofabrication technologies enable the preparation of increasingly smaller mechanical transducers capable of detecting the forces, motion, mechanical properties and masses that emerge in biomolecular interactions, fundamental biological processes, or in interaction with nano-objects. These nanomechanical systems have gained considerable relevance in the last decade, and are promising techniques for medical diagnosis, pharmacological research and environmental monitoring issues, because of their small size, high sensitivity and suitability for integration into miniaturized analytical systems.
One of the most promising emerging nanotechnology-related approaches is based on micro- nanofluidic channel enclosed in a MEMS resonator, similarly to what is developed in MIT and LETI laboratories. This technology, known as Suspended Microchannel Resonator (SMR), has the ability to detect and accurately count particles as small as 50nm, and reliably measure their buoyant mass (resolution down to the ag ), and size.
In this presentation, I will detail current development at LETI related to this new sensor paradigm, focus on different applications, and give perspectives for new studies.
