The mass sensitivity of a piezoelectric diaphragm biosensor has been investigated. The piezoelectric diaphragm utilizing a flexural vibration mode is an acoustic wave device which can be immobilized with a bio-molecular recognition layer on its surface. The mass sensitivity of the sensor was analyzed by the approximately theoretical and FEM methods, respectively. The sensitivity formula expressed by the structural parameters and the material parameter was educed for easy computing. The procedure utilizing Rayleigh method for the analytic solution of the sensitivity was introduced. The expression was verified by using a commercial FEM software package, ANSYS. The simulations are well consistent with the theory.

Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is drawing extensive attention and gaining rapid development as an emerging biomedical imaging technology because of its high spatial resolution, large imaging depth, and rich optical contrast. PAI has great potential applications in endoscopy, but the progress of endoscopic PAI was hindered by the challenges of manufacturing and assembling miniature imaging components. Over the last decade, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology has greatly facilitated the development of photoacoustic endoscopes and extended the realm of applicability of the PAI. As the key component of photoacoustic endoscopes, micromachined ultrasound transducers (MUTs), including piezoelectric MUTs (pMUTs) and capacitive MUTs (cMUTs), have been developed and explored for endoscopic PAI applications. In this article, the recent progress of pMUTs (thickness extension mode and flexural vibration mode) and cMUTs are reviewed and discussed with their applications in endoscopic PAI. Current PAI endoscopes based on pMUTs and cMUTs are also introduced and compared. Finally, the remaining challenges and future directions of MEMS ultrasound transducers for endoscopic PAI applications are given.

Modal Equation

In this paper, the free flexural vibration of an elastic rectangular plate having initial imperfection is investigated including the effects of transverse shear and rotatory inertia. It is assumed that the vibration occurs with large amplitudes which leads to nonlinear differantial equations. On the basis of an assumed vibration mode, the modal equation of the plate is obtained and solved numerically.
