About
Vasileios Mitrakos is a leading researcher in the field of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and nanocomposite-based sensor technologies. His work centers on the development of highly sensitive piezoresistive pressure sensors, with a particular focus on low-pressure measurement ranges—a critical capability for applications in robotics, wearable electronics, and biomedical devices. Mitrakos’s most influential contribution is his 2018 paper on “Nanocomposite-Based Microstructured Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors for Low-Pressure Measurement Range,” which has garnered 44 citations and established a foundational approach for fabricating compact, high-performance sensors. In this work, he introduced a novel sensor design featuring a microstructured bottom electrode with a two-by-two array of truncated pyramids, enabling precise detection of low compressive stresses within a 5.5 × 5 × 1.6 mm³ footprint. This innovation significantly advanced the sensitivity and miniaturization of pressure sensors, bridging the gap between material science and practical device engineering. Mitrakos’s research continues to influence the design of flexible, low-cost sensing systems, and his contributions are widely recognized for their impact on next-generation tactile and pressure-sensing technologies.
