IMG Members Receive the Best Research & Best Presentation Awards at the 67th American Vacuum Society (AVS) International Symposium

Congratulations to IMG graduate students Tahmid Kaisar and Enamul Yousuf on being selected to receive the Best Research Work Award and the Best Student Presentation Award, respectively, at the 67th American Vacuum Society (AVS) International Symposium (Oct.

A Flat-Packaged Optical Shear Stress Sensor Using Moiré Transduction for Harsh Environments

As the field of hypersonic vehicle design develops, having shear stress data can aid in the minimization of 
drag source effects and verify results from computational fluid dynamics simulations. Transducer size, 
placement, and narrow bandwidth currently limit accurate shear stress measurements due to the small 
length and time scales seen in turbulent fluid motion and the issue of flow disruption. Shock wave and 
boundary layer effects also produce large thermal loads in hypersonic flows. The proposed research plan 

Additive microfabrication processes using micro-stereolithography for functional microdevices

The goal of this project is to develop processes that will advance microfabrication technologies using stereolithography as the additive manufacturing (3D printing) method. This project focuses on fabrication of multifunctional devices that are both high resolution (tens of micrometers) and large area (tens of millimeters). The ability to fabricate functional microdevices using 3D printing can enable novel devices in the area of MEMs, sensors, actuators, microrobots, micro-optics, radio frequency, etc.
