Abstract

See full text

The invention provides a method and system to control the mechanical stiffness of a nanoscale component comprising the steps of applying a current to the nano-scale component; and increasing or decreasing the mechanical stiffness of the material by controlling the current flow applied to the component. The invention also provides a NanoElectroMechanical (NEMs) device comprising a controlled mechanical stiffness.
