Enjoying the IEEE SENSORS 2023 conference in Vienna, Austria.

A great opportuniy to meet colleagues and friends and to share our recent results on a biaxial xz MEMS capacitive accelerometer with in-plane differential readout.

If you are interested, give a look to our paper recently published on IEEE Sensors Letters
C. Galimberti, G. Gattere, M. Riani, V. Zega ‘A new design strategy for innovative MEMS xz-biaxial accelerometer’ IEEE Sensors Letters 7 (10), (2023) 2503504.

Thanks to my co-authors Chiara Galimberti, Gabriele Gattere, Manuel Riani and to the Joint Research Platform STEAM between STMicroelectronics and Politecnico di Milano that supported the project.

Presenting the design and exprimental characterization of the new MEMS long- stroke actuator based on tunnel-comb fingers at the TRANSDUCERS2023 conference in Kyoto.

The work has been carried out within the joint research center STMicroelectronics and Politecnico di Milano.
Thanks a lot to my co-authors Andrea Opreni Yassine Banani Andrea Buffoli Flavia D. Mauri Gabriele Gattere Manuel Riani Giacomo Langfelder and Attilio Frangi.
