Monolithic Resonant-Cantilever-Based CMOS Microsystem for Biochemical Sensing
2008
A resonant cantilever-based microsystem aimed at biochemical sensing is presented. The sensor system comprises a magnetically actuated resonant cantilever sensor array integrated with the feedback circuitry, digital control circuitry and a serial interface on a single chip in 0.8 mum CMOS technology. The sensor system shows a frequency stability of better than 3 Hz in water corresponding to a detection limit of about 30 pg mass loading. The system has been used for the detection of antibody-antigen interaction on the cantilever surface. The possibility to actuate and operate cantilever arrays in a liquid environment opens up a variety of new applications for bio-chemical sensing.
