Constructive utilization of intentional nonlinearity in systems of coupled micro/nanomechanical resonators
… studied in the last decade in designs of highly sensitive detection, high frequency signal-processing, and high speed switching. These designs benefit from the exceptional dynamic characteristics of these systems, i.e., high frequency resonance and high Q-factor, arising from their small …

Intentional nonlinearity in the small scale with applications to atomic force microscopy (AFM) and mass sensing
… coexistence of multiple solution branches and higher harmonic generation. In this dissertation, I investigate further ways in which intentional nonlinearity can be leveraged to enhance micromechanical resonant sensing techniques. In particular, I focus on applications to AFM and mass sensing. …
