The UK Microsystems Network has launched its new online Seminar Series highlighting leading research in microsystems across the UK and internationally. The first seminar in the series was delivered by Dr Chun Zhao from the University of York, whose talk explored the development of memristor-like MEMS resonators , miniature mechanical devices that exhibit memory-like behaviour through nonlinear and coupled vibrational modes.
Dr Zhao’s research investigates how these effects can be harnessed to enhance sensing performance, enable energy-efficient signal processing, and open new routes for computation at the microscale. His presentation provided valuable insight into how emerging physical phenomena and novel materials can be leveraged to push the boundaries of MEMS and NEMS technology.
This seminar marks the beginning of a series of talks designed to showcase excellence in microsystems research, spanning topics such as microfabrication, microfluidics, microsensors, microacoustics, and more.
