Talk Title: Graphene for Next-Generation Nanomechanical Sensors
In this presentation, recent progress on the route from MEMS toward 2D NEMS sensors will be discussed [1,2]. After introducing fabrication and characterization methods for studying the static and dynamic motion of suspended ultrathin membranes, several concepts for sensing gas pressure using atomically thin membranes are demonstrated, including static, resonant and Pirani pressure sensing.
Challenges to meet requirements on yield, sensitivity and lifetime are discussed and advances in optical and electronic calibration and readout methods using commercial low-cost electronics are discussed, aiming towards commercially viable graphene pressure sensor products as part of the Graphene Flagship sensors workpackage. Gas sensing concepts for analyzing gas composition based on permeation of gases through graphene nanopores are discussed and the feasibility of graphene gas pumps is shown.
About the Speaker
Peter Steeneken received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degree in experimental solid state physics from the University of Groningen, the Netherlands. In 2002, he joined Philips Research and NXP Research in Eindhoven, as an industrial scientist focusing on the modeling, characterization and reliability of CMOS MEMS devices for sensors, actuators and RF applications.
Since 2013, he is professor of Applied Nanophysics at the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience in Delft and since 2017 he is full professor at TU Delft’s Precision and Microsystems Engineering Department, chairing the section Dynamics of Micro and Nanosystems.
Prof. Steeneken currently leads the sensors workpackage of the Graphene Flagship and the large national project Plantenna on plant-based sensor technology. He has authored more than 100 journal and conference publication and holds 44 granted US patents. His research focuses on bridging the gap between fundamental physics and applications, with a focus on high frequency nanomechanical sensor devices.
The IEEE Sensors Journal was born on June 1, 2001, when its first ever issue was published. The journal has grown exponentially over the past 20 years to become one of the world’s largest journals in sensor engineering and technology as well as one of the largest among more than 200 IEEE publications. In these 20 years, the field of sensors has dramatically changed of course: Completely new areas have emerged, e.g., body sensor networks, the InternetofThings, memristive sensors, or the smart sensory dusts, while some others have enormously grown, e.g., mechanical sensors, fiber-optics sensors, or radiation sensors. In all these cases, the IEEE Sensors Journal has recorded and presented the progress and achievements of the field. Read the full article here.
The IEEE Young Professionals Engagement Series (YES) is organized by the IEEE Sensors Council YP Committee and the IEEE Delhi-Rajasthan Joint Sensors Chapter.

2nd Annual Workshop of IEEE Sensors Council NSW Chapter
Smart Sensing and Instrumentation
Date: April 16, 2021
Via Hybrid system (both in-person and online)
Venue: 9WW, 116, E6A, Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia.
Zoom link:
Password: 518229
Purpose: The IEEE Sensors Council NSW Chapter would like to invite researchers, scientists, engineers and practitioners to discuss and present their latest research findings, ideas, developments and applications in the area of Sensors, Instrumentation and Measurement Technologies and their applications in all areas of everyday life.
Objective: The objective of the workshop is to bring together industry and academia to learn about the work of fellow colleagues, share ideas and vision about the present challenges and opportunities in a number of industry sectors, and identify common areas for collaboration.
Sensors, measurements and instrumentation are core to everyday life ranging from healthcare to transport, energy, manufacturing, and food. The fields of sensors, measurements and instrumentation are strongly cross-disciplinary. There is a need for interactions among researchers, scientists, engineers and practitioners to discuss the technology, solutions, and applications of these fields. This Annual Workshop will provide opportunities for scientists and engineers from different disciplines to share their up-to-date knowledge and discuss their research findings and activities in these fields for the further improvement of quality of life.
In the regular sessions, there will be an opportunity for participants to present their research works, and during the workshop, there will be many opportunities for networking.

The Summer School is organized by the University of Rome “Foro Italico”, the only Italian University entirely devoted to sport and exercise sciences, and is sponsored by the IEEE Sensors Council Italy Chapter. This School is unique with its intent of establishing synergies between the different stakeholders working in the field of sports monitoring with wearable sensors.
Topics Include:
Detailed information can be found at International Summer School on Wearable Sensors in Sport - IEEE Italy Sensors Chapter.
The Sensors Council encourages organizing Summer/Seasonal Schools in different locations of the world. Sensors Council is soliciting proposals for such Schools focused on a Sensors theme. If you are interested in organizing one at your location, please send your proposal to the Educational Activity Chair, Dr. Chonggang Wang with a copy to Brooke Johnson.
The Sensors Council provides technical and financial support to its Chapters for organizing events during the calendar year, preferably to the newly formed Chapters. Please contact the Vice President – Technical Operations, Anil Roy with a copy to Brooke Johnson should you need funding and/or need to contact a potential lecturer for your Chapter’s meeting.
