Circular High-Q Resonating Isotropic Strain Sensors with Large Shift of Resonance Frequency under Stress

We present circular architecture bioimplant strain sensors that facilitate a strong resonance frequency shift with mechanical deformation. The clinical application area of these sensors is for in vivo assessment of bone fractures. Using a rectangular geometry, we obtain a resonance shift of 330 MHz...
