Abstract

The role of quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) and surface acoustic wave (SAW) transducers in analyte detection from nanometer to micrometer dimensions using imprinting techniques was discussed. The devices comprised of piezoelectric substrates attached to electrodes, which simulated different vibration modes such as thickness shear waves in case of QCM and Rayleigh waves in case of SAW. The devices were shown to be used for single cell detection, chemical sensing and as oil degradation sensors.
