The theory for the EE mechanism with adsorption of the intermediate following Langmuir’s isotherm has been developed for the expanding sphere with any power law electrode model. The equations obtained with this model are general and can be applied, for example, to a stationary plane electrode, to a stationary sphere electrode, and to the two models of dropping mercury electrode (DME), expanding plane and expanding sphere. The influence exerted by the sphericity of the electrode on the current-potential (I/E) curves and the characteristics of these curves are discussed.

Equations for a potentiostatic reaction with an adsorption process following Langmuir’s isotherm have been derived for the expanding sphere with any power law electrode model. This model is very general and includes, among others, the following ones: (a) stationary plane; (b) stationary sphere; (c) expanding plane; and (d) expanding sphere. Characteristics of these solutions and the behavior of the corresponding asymptotic solutions are discussed. A comparison of the results obtained for plane and spherical electrodes has also been performed.

Abstract This paper deals with the design and optimization of a differential capacitive micro accelerometer for better displacement since other types of micro accelerometer lags in sensitivity and linearity. To overcome this problem, a capacitive area-changed technique is adopted to improve the sensitivity even in a wide acceleration range (0–100 g). The linearity is improved by designing a U-folded suspension. The movable mass of the accelerometer is designed with many fingers connected in parallel and suspended over the stationary electrodes. This arrangement gives the differential comb-type capacitive accelerometer. The area changed capacitive accelerometer is designed using Intellisuite 8.6 Software. Design parameters such as spring width and radius, length, and width of the proof mass are optimized using Minitab 17 software. Mechanical sensitivity of 0.3506 μm/g and Electrical sensitivity of 4.706 μF/g are achieved. The highest displacement of 7.899 μm is obtained with a cross-axis sensitivity of 0.47%.

This paper presents a novel dielectrophoresis (DEP) device where the DEP electrodes define the channel walls. This is achieved by fabricating microfluidic channel walls from highly doped silicon so that they can also function as DEP electrodes. Compared with planar electrodes, this device increases the exhibited dielectrophoretic force on the particle, therefore decreases the applied potential and reduces the heating of the solution. A DEP device with triangle electrodes has been designed and fabricated. Compared with the other two configurations, semi-circular and square, triangle electrode presents an increased force, which can decrease the applied voltage and reduce the Joule effect. Yeast cells have been used to for testing the performance of the device.

In this paper, We use a novel principle to detect acceleration and report how I-V characteristics and piezoresistance coefficient of AlGaN/GaN HEFT-micro-accelerometer are affected by setting different temperatures. It is shown that saturation current of device would go down if the temperature goes up, which is about 0.028mA/°C, based on the research. However, the device can work well at the temperature range of -50°C to 50°C, which indicates that it can work safely in the larger temperature range.
