Corrigendum to “Using electric actuation and detection of oscillations in microcantilevers for pressure measurements” [Sensors and Actuators A: Physical (2008) 203–209]

The author deeply regrets that an error occurred in the printed version of the above article. Please see correction below: In our article “Using electric actuation and detection of oscillations in microcantilevers for pressure measurements”, we miscalculated two values, using the frequency f where we should have used the angular frequency =2 f, After taking into account that f= /2 , the correct value of the damping parameter is 3.21×10−8 N sm−1 under aHe environment at roompressure (calculated using Eq. (2)). Similarly the slope of the 1/QE vs. pressure plot (C1) in the molecular region calculated using Eq. (6) is 1.43×10−4 Torr−1 after correction. Though the legend of our graphs reads “driving frequency (Hz)”, we plotted the data using the driving frequency (f) rather than the angular frequency in rad/s.
