Label-free Biosensors: Thin-film Bulk Acoustic Resonators

Focusing on the innovative capabilities of thin-film bulk acoustic resonators (FBARs), this book explores their high sensitivity for detecting mass changes on surfaces, particularly when functionalized for biosensing applications. The small size of FBARs allows for low liquid consumption, rapid measurements, and the ability to analyze multiple resonators simultaneously. It discusses their potential superiority over established technologies in biomolecular interaction analysis, providing a comprehensive overview of current measurement techniques and the theoretical and practical advantages of FBARs.
