This book focuses on the fabrication and applications of cantilever beams with nanoscale dimensions. Nanometer-size mechanical structures show exceptional properties generated by their reduced dimensions. These properties enable new sensing concepts and transduction mechanisms that will allow the enhancement of the performance of devices to their fundamental limits. A number of scientists are conducting research in the area of nanocantilever beams. The book will particularly benefit researchers and help them consolidate their background in the field. The book aims to be an excellent scientific reference for an audience with diverse backgrounds and interests, including students, academic researchers, industry specialists, policymakers, and enthusiasts.

"Nanocantilever Beams: Modeling, Fabrication, and Applications presents a review of the state of the art in the nanocantilever beam technology. Owing to their high sensitivity and versatility in transduction methods, nanocantilever beams have been widely studied and applied for the detection of physical, chemical, and biological events. This book is an excellent scientific reference for practicing engineers, students, and researchers in mechanical, electrical, civil, and aerospace engineering as well as materials science. It contains 16 chapters that offer a broad range of information, including theory, design, fabrication, and applications, on diverse nanostructures such as nanocantilever beam, nanobridge, and nanomembane structures. The text also provides an important discussion and perspective on sensing applications in air, liquid, and vacuum. It is important in the field, particularly because there is currently no other book with similar topics focused on nanocantilever beams."
