Design and optimization of a MEMS quartz mass sensor array for biosensing

Most commercial quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensors are fabricated as a single AT quartz crystal device and are used for biosensor applications. This limits the sensor’s ability to perform detection of multiple targets at a single time. To overcome this we propose in this work, the design,...
