SU-8 cantilever with integrated pyrolyzed glass-like carbon piezoresistor

Giovanni Boero, Jürgen Brugger, Giulia Panusa, Jongmoon Jang

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, an ...
