CMOS - MEMS

CMOS - MEMS

This edition of 'CMOS-MEMS' was originally published in the successful series 'Advanced Micro & Nanosystems'. Here, the combination of the globally established, billion dollar chip mass fabrication technology CMOS with the fascinating and commercially promising new world of MEMS is covered from all angles. The book introduces readers to this fi eld and takes them from fabrication technologies and material charaterization aspects to the actual applications of CMOS-MEMS - a wide range of miniaturized physical, chemical and biological sensors and RF systems. Vital knowledge on circuit and system integration issues concludes this in-depth treatise, illustrating the advantages of combining CMOS and MEMS in the first place, rather than having a hybrid solution.

Enabling Technology for MEMS and Nanodevices

Mikro- und Nanotechnik haben Wissenschaft und Forschung revolutioniert. In Zukunft werden sie auch den Alltag verändern. Nun liegt der erste Band einer neuen Buchreihe vor: Advanced Micro and Nano Systems 1. Henry Baltes und seine Co-Autoren knüpfen mit AMN an die Sensors Update-Reihe an. Das Autorenteam wurde um weitere Experten erweitert. AMN wird zwei Mal pro Jahr mit einem neuen Band die aktuellen Entwicklungen in der Mikro- und Nano-Welt begleiten. Die Erforschung und der Einsatz von Mikro- und Nanosystemen sind eines der brandaktuellen Themen im Wissenschaftsbereich. Die Forschungsergebnisse werden mehr und mehr auch konkret umgesetzt. Damit werden Mikro- und Nanotechnologie zu Wirts...

Reliability of MEMS

Reliability of MEMS

This first book to cover exclusively and in detail the principles, tools and methods for determining the reliability of microelectromechanical materials, components and devices covers both component materials as well as entire MEMS devices. Divided into two major parts, following a general introductory chapter to reliability issues, the first part looks at the mechanical properties of the materials used in MEMS, explaining in detail the necessary measuring technologies -- nanoindenters, bulge methods, bending tests, tensile tests, and others. Part Two treats the actual devices, organized by important device categories such as pressure sensors, inertial sensors, RF MEMS, and optical MEMS.

System-level Modeling of MEMS

System-level modeling of MEMS - microelectromechanical systems - comprises integrated approaches to simulate, understand, and optimize the performance of sensors, actuators, and microsystems, taking into account the intricacies of the interplay between mechanical and electrical properties, circuitry, packaging, and design considerations. Thereby, system-level modeling overcomes the limitations inherent to methods that focus only on one of these aspects and do not incorporate their mutual dependencies. The book addresses the two most important approaches of system-level modeling, namely physics-based modeling with lumped elements and mathematical modeling employing model order reduction metho...

Resonant MEMS

Part of the AMN book series, this book covers the principles, modeling and implementation as well as applications of resonant MEMS from a unified viewpoint. It starts out with the fundamental equations and phenomena that govern the behavior of resonant MEMS and then gives a detailed overview of their implementation in capacitive, piezoelectric, thermal and organic devices, complemented by chapters addressing the packaging of the devices and their stability. The last part of the book is devoted to the cutting-edge applications of resonant MEMS such as inertial, chemical and biosensors, fluid properties sensors, timing devices and energy harvesting systems.

Control Technologies for Emerging Micro and Nanoscale Systems

This book comprises a selection of the presentations made at the “Workshop on Dynamics and Control of Micro and Nanoscale Systems” held at IBM Research – Zurich, Switzerland, on the 10th and 11th of December 2009. The aim of the workshop was to bring together some of the leading researchers in the field of dynamics and control of micro- and nanoscale systems. It proved an excellent forum for discussing new ideas and approaches.

Tribology Issues and Opportunities in MEMS

Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) is already about a billion dollars a year industry and is growing rapidly. So far major emphasis has been placed on the fabrication processes for various devices. There are serious issues related to tribology, mechanics, surfacechemistry and materials science in the operationand manufacturingof many MEMS devices and these issues are preventing an even faster commercialization. Very little is understood about tribology and mechanical properties on micro- to nanoscales of the materials used in the construction of MEMS devices. The MEMS community needs to be exposed to the state-of-the-artoftribology and vice versa. Fundamental understanding of friction/s...

Microengineering of Metals and Ceramics, Part I

Microstructures, electronics, nanotechnology - these vast fields of research are growing together as the size gap narrows and many different materials are combined. Current research, engineering sucesses and newly commercialized products hint at the immense innovative potentials and future applications that open up once mankind controls shape and function from the atomic level right up to the visible world without any gaps. In this volume, authors from three major competence centres for microengineering illustrate step by step the process from designing and simulating microcomponents of metallic and ceramic materials to replicating micro-scale components by injection molding.

Current research, engineering sucesses and newly commercialized products hint at the immense innovative potentials and future applications that open up once mankind controls shape and function from the atomic level right up to the visible world without any gaps. Continuing from the previous volume, authors from three major competence centres for microengineering here cover all aspects of specialized replication techniques and how to employ state-of-the-art technologies for testing and characterizing micro-scale components, and illustrate quality control aspects and strategies for automation of production procedures in view of future industrial production and commercialisation.
