Microelectromechanical Systems

This interesting course introduces the general principles and tools of the microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and devices and their applications

The course covers principles such as force scaling, elasticity, piezo-resistance and piezoelectricity, electrostatic actuation and sensing, and then describes several solutions for different applications, such as resonators, inertial sensors, microfluidics and electro-kinetics, RF-MEMS. The last topic describes the specific fabrication processes for MEMS, with particular attention to sustainability in MEMS cycle of life.
