  1. Introduction to Nanomechanics(Spring 2012) Martino Poggio

  2. Nanomechanical Measurements • Displacement measurement is crucial for force transduction • Different types of nanomechanical displacement measurements (advantages & disadvantages) • Focus on optical interferometry • Signal-to-noise ratio Introduction to Nanomechanics

  3. Transduction vs. Sensing • A transducer receives energy from one system and transmits it to another, often in a different form. • A sensor responds to physical stimuli (e.g. heat, light, pressure, or motion) and generates an electronic signal for detection. Introduction to Nanomechanics

  4. Mechanical Force Transducers F • Now we require a sensor for mechanical motion. x Introduction to Nanomechanics
