Leveraging NEMS To Address Critical Hardware Security Challenges In Advanced Packaging (U. of Florida)


A new technical paper titled "Nanoelectromechanical Systems (NEMS) for Hardware Security in Advanced Packaging" was published by researchers at University of Florida. Abstract "As hardware security threats escalate across semiconductor manufacturing and advanced packaging, there is a growing need for novel physical mechanisms to counter sophisticated attacks such as tampering, counterfeit... » read more

Design of strongly nonlinear graphene nanoelectromechanical systems in quantum regime


ABSTRACT "We report on the analysis and design of atomically thin graphene resonant nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) that can be engineered to exhibit anharmonicity in the quantum regime. Analysis of graphene two-dimensional (2D) NEMS resonators suggests that with device lateral size scaled down to ∼10–30 nm, restoring force due to the third-order (Duffing) stiffness in graphene NE... » read more
