INTEGRATED MEMS

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
An addition to the Microelectromechanical Systems series, the 221-page book Post-Processing Techniques for Integrated MEMS details how to merge the systems with their driving, control and signal processing electronics using pre-, interleaved or postprocessing. Chapters address such areas as maximum postprocessing temperature, silicon germanium as a suitable systems material and low thermal budget techniques for enhancing crystallization. Charts, diagrams, references, an index and a list of acronyms are included. Sherif Sedky; Artech House Inc., Norwood, Mass., 2006; $99.Read full article

    microelectromechanical systems
    Refers to micron-size complex machines that have physical dimensions suitable for the fabrication of optical switches for use in state-of-the-art communications networks.
    nano
    An SI prefix meaning one billionth (10-9). Nano can also be used to indicate the study of atoms, molecules and other structures and particles on the nanometer scale. Nano-optics (also referred to as nanophotonics), for example, is the study of how light and light-matter interactions behave on the nanometer scale. See nanophotonics.
    photonics
    The technology of generating and harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy whose quantum unit is the photon. The science includes light emission, transmission, deflection, amplification and detection by optical components and instruments, lasers and other light sources, fiber optics, electro-optical instrumentation, related hardware and electronics, and sophisticated systems. The range of applications of photonics extends from energy generation to detection to communications and...
