Abstract
This work describes the Master’s Thesis project carried out at the Technical University of Denmark. The goal of the project is to design, fabricate, simulate and characterize a hollow MEMS sensor able to detect individual circulating immuno cells, to study their mechanical properties and also to investigate their response during a specific treatment. Combined density, viscosity, mass spectroscopy and IR absorption spectroscopy can be performed by tracking changes in the sensor’s resonant behavior. Based on a previous work, the design is optimized in order to face the requirements of the current cells shape and dimension leading to the development of a detailed microfabrication process.
Before implementing the process flow, a finite element method (FEM) analysis of the system is performed, with the goal of verifying that the chosen design would be able to measure the intended effects, thus predicting the resonant behaviour of the system
