Abstract:
Systems and methods for thermally actuating piezoresistive cantilevers are described. One embodiment includes a nanoelectromechanical resonator connected in at least one location to a substrate, an electrically conductive path formed on the resonator and a signal source connected to the electrically conductive path and configured to provide an oscillating actuation signal capable of exciting a resonant mode in the resonator.
