MIXDES paper submission deadline extended: March 15th, 2022

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to remind you about the upcoming MIXDES 2022 regular paper submission deadline.

As current COVID pandemic situation is quite optimistic and hopefully better within next months, we want to organize the conference on-site in the of the most beautiful cities of Poland – Wroclaw.

To help you with preparation of excellent papers, we have decided to move the submission deadline to 15 March 2022. If you are going to contribute, I encourage you to register your paper just now providing its data and uploading the paper file later. You will be able to update the paper details and the document file at any time till the final paper version deadline (May 13th, 2022). The early submission will allow us to take care of your paper just now, especially start the reviewer assignments and begin the formatting verification process.

To submit the paper, you need to log on to the MIXDES Conference web site (www.mixdes.org) and follow the link "Submit a paper". After successful paper registration, you should receive a confirmation e-mail and the paper should appear in the "User home" page. From this page, you may later update already registered papers.

As in the previous year, we are going to give you an opportunity to publish extended versions of your conference papers in the journal. The information about the post MIXDES publication will be provided soon at the conference site (www.mixdes.org).

Taking the opportunity, I would like to remind all MIXDES 2021 authors that the deadline for Energies submissions passes on 01 July 2022.

Important dates:

• Paper submission deadline: 15 March 2022
• Notification of acceptance: 30 April 2022
• Final paper versions: 13 May 2022
• Conference days: 23-25 June 2022
  

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

With best regards,

[paper] Cantilever with Carbon Piezoresistor

Jongmoon Jang, Giulia Panusa, Giovanni Boero and Juergen Brugger 

SU-8 Cantilever with Integrated Pyrolyzed Glass-Like Carbon Piezoresistor

Microsyst Nanoeng 8, 22 (2022)

DOI:10.1038/s41378-022-00351-9

Abstract: Glass-like carbon (GC) is a nongraphitizing material composed entirely of carbon atoms produced from selected organic polymer resins by controlled pyrolysis in an inert atmosphere. The GC properties are a combination of the properties of glass, ceramic, and graphite, including hardness, low density, low thermal conductivity, high chemical inertness, biocompatibility, high electrical conductivity, and microfabrication process compatibility. Despite these unique properties, the application of GC in mechanical sensors has not been explored thus far. Here, we investigate the electrical, structural, and chemical properties of GC thin films derived from epoxy-based negative photoresist SU-8 pyrolyzed from 700 to 900°C. In addition, we fabricated microGC piezoresistors pyrolyzed at 700 and 900 °C and integrated them into nonpyrolyzed SU-8 cantilevers to create microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) mechanical sensors. The sensitivities of the GC sensor to strain, force, surface stress, and acceleration are characterized to demonstrate their potential and limits for electromechanical microdevices.
