c Aligned Co Artificial Cilia- Biologically Inspired NanosensorsAlison Flatau and Pat McCluskey (U Maryland) and Beth Stadler (U Minnesota) • Objective: • Borrow design of inner ear and create cilia for acoustic sensors • Magnetostrictive cilia will change magnetization when moved by an acoustic signal. Someday Co/Cu multilayers could be used as magnetic sensors in each wire. Many types of nanowires are being grown.
