Resolving measurement of large (∼GDa) chemical/biomolecule complexes with multimode nanomechanical resonators

Ivo Stachiv et al.

Summary: Nanomechanical resonators can be used for mass sensing in the range from kDa to tens of MDa, but challenges remain for heavier analytes (up to hundreds of GDa). Studies have proposed identification of heavy analytes based on mass, stiffness, and binding effects. By measuring the induced resonant frequency shifts of multiple analytes and requiring a mass ratio between 0.001 and 0.02, heavy analyte mass spectrometry can be achieved.

2-step reaction kinetics for hydrogen absorption into bulk material via dissociative adsorption on the surface

Taro Yakabe et al.

Summary: The process of hydrogen absorption into a solid follows a Langmuir-type function instead of Sieverts law. This can be explained by two theories: solubility theory and 2-step reaction kinetics (2sRK) model. The 2sRK model has an advantage over the solubility theory as it can describe the dynamic process and discuss both absorption amount and rate.
