Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems

What is MEMS?

Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) is one of the most rapid developing research fields all over the world [1].

Starting from pure academic research field [2], MEMS gradually incorporates its mature technology in industry [3]. Recently, the frontier areas of MEMS research have gradually moved into Bio-MEMS and NEMS (Nano-Electro-Mechanical Systems). MEMS/NEMS attracts researchers from a variety of disciplines including mechanical engineering (mechanics, heat transfer, fluidics, etc.), electrical engineering (electronics, IC, etc.), materials engineering, biomedical engineering and basic science such as physics, chemistry and biology.
