High thrust-to-weight ratio is crucial in aero-engine design. The adverse pressure gradient in compressors limits the maximum diffusion per stage, necessitating more stages to achieve the desired pressure ratio. Tandem airfoils, with their superior diffusion capability compared t ...

PMUT-Powered Photoacoustic Detection

Revolutionizing Microfluidic Concentration Measurements

This report introduces a novel optofluidic platform based on piezo-microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, capable of identifying subtle variations in the fluid concentration. The system utilizes piezoelectric micromachined ultrasound transducers (PMUTs) as receivers to ...
We report on the development of a novel piezo-MEMS-based optofluidic platform to detect the concentration of various species dissolved in a fluid. This platform employs piezoelectric micromachined ultrasound transducers (PMUTs) to work as a photoacoustic receiver, receiving ultra ...
