Günter Hans Sauerbrey (January 1, 1933 – May 15, 2003) was a German physicist who invented the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM).[3][4]
Biography
Günter Sauerbrey obtained his
Technical University of Berlin. He was responsible of the Laboratory of Medical Techniques and Dosimetry of the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) in Berlin for 24 years (from 1974 to 1998).[2]
Research contributions
Günter Sauerbrey invented the
Technical University of Berlin and published it in two seminals papers in 1957[3] and 1959.[4] He was the first to use a harmonic acceleration field to measure mass, although he was not aware about this in the moment of publication.[5]
Together with the quartz crystal microbalance, he developed the Sauerbrey equation to explain the working principle of the device. Later, other authors developed derivative equations for different cases.
