Nanoscale accelerometers typically employ Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology. These MEMS accelerometers use tiny mechanical structures that deform in response to external forces. The deformation is then converted into electrical signals, which are processed to determine the acceleration. The use of nanomaterials like graphene and carbon nanotubes has further enhanced their performance by providing high strength-to-weight ratios and exceptional electrical properties.
