Xiao Zhu Fan completed his M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering in February 2009. In his thesis work, titled "Enhancement of an Indium Phosphide Resonator Sensor Microsystems through the Development of an Adaptive Feedback Circuit and Electrospray Deposition," Xiao presents the successful development of a feedback circuit for autonomous operation of a resonator and an alternative thin-film deposition method for MEMS post-processing applications. These two developments will enhance the functionality and sensitivity of a resonator sensor microsystem. Xiao is continuing his Ph.D. degree in ECE at UMD.
