Design and fabrication of CSWAP gate based on nano-electromechanical systems
(Springer, Cham, 2016)In order to reduce undesired heat dissipation, reversible logic offers a promising solution where the erasure of information can be avoided to overcome the Landauer limit. Among the reversible logic gates, Fredkin (CSWAP) ... -
Design, fabrication, and applications of electrostatically buckled nanomechanical systems
(Bilkent University, 2018-08)Buckling is an important resource for memory and sensing applications at the micro- and nano-scale. Although di erent approaches have been developed to access buckling, such as the use of pre-stressed beams or thermal ... -
An experimental approach to nanomechanical buckling and snap-through phenomenon
(Bilkent University, 2019-08)Buckling has received little attention as a valuable resource for engineering applications since it is regarded as a type of failure in civil and mechanical engineering. Nevertheless, buckling has a great potential in ... -
From beams to bilayers: A unifying approach towards instabilities of compressible domains under plane deformations
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021-10)Instabilities that form when a domain of compliant elastic material goes under compressive forces are prevalent in nature and have found many applications. Even though instabilities are observed in a myriad of fields and ... -
Full electrostatic control of nanomechanical buckling
(American Physical Society, 2020)Buckling of mechanical structures results in bistable states with spatial separation, a feature desirable for sensing, shape configuration, and mechanical computation. Although different approaches have been developed to ... -
Monitoring micromechanical buckling at high-speed for sensing and transducer applications
(IEEE, 2021-08-06)Controlling the amount and direction of buckling at micro- and nano-scale efficiently opens up avenues for novel actuation and sensor applications. Earlier platforms that can achieve a full and non-thermal control of ... -
Nanomechanical buckling for applications in nonlinear dynamics
(Bilkent University, 2021-07)There has not been enough attention on post buckling behavior at nano scale even though it reveals rich nonlinear and chaotic dynamics and has potential to be used on cutting edge sensing, actuation, computation and ... -
Pre- and post-buckling analysis of nanobeams
(Bilkent University, 2019-02)Interest in nanobeams is increasing as their application areas widen and new properties are discovered. These structures exhibit size dependent intrinsic properties that are absent in macroscale. This requires employment ... -
Tight binding modeling of two dimensional and quasi-two dimensional materials
(Bilkent University, 2017-09)Since the advent of graphene, two-dimensional (2D) materials have consistently been studied owing to their exceptional electronic and optical properties. While graphene is completely two-dimensional in nature, its other ... -
A unifying approach towards the geometrical instabilities of compressible, multilayer domains
(Bilkent University, 2022-07)Instabilities that arise in layered systems have been a riveting course of study for the past few decades, having found utility in various fields, while also being frequently observed in biological systems. However, the ...
