Özet

The present study demonstrates the forced displacements of the fixed-free micro-cantilever under dynamic acoustic forces within kHz range. The FEM method is applied to investigate sensitivity of the AFM micro-cantilever to acoustic forces for the SPL range of 30 -70 dB. Oscillatory responses to varying length, width, and thickness of the rectangular micro-cantilever are determined for enhanced sensitivity analysis. The FEM results suggest that the amplitude responses becomes quite higher when the width-to-thickness ratio reaches the critical value (w/t=50). Therefore, the sensitivity of the micro-cantilever to kHz acoustic forces can be improved by optimizing the micro-cantilever dimensions using the FEM technique.
