Abstract:Abstract. Stability analysis and modeling the electromechanical response of nanotweezers are crucial for reliable designing and manufacturing of these nano-devices. Herein, a modi ed model is developed for static and dynamic stability analyses of nanotweezers with low width to thickness ration (narrow width). The surface elasticity was employed in conjunction with the strain gradient theory to consider the coupled e ects of scale dependency, i.e. size-dependency of material characteristics and surface layer.
