Adhesion-Related Failure Mechanisms in Micromechanical Devices
Adhesion-related failures occurs in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) when suspended elastic members unexpectedly stick to their substrates. This type of device failure is one of the dominant sources of yield loss in MEMS. This paper reviews the physical mechanisms responsible for the failure from both the theoretical and practical stand point. In general, the failure requires two different...
متن کاملAlGaN/GaN Micromechanical Devices and Resonant HEMTs
Piezoelectrically actuated micromechanical resonators have been a subject of extensive research for the past decade with the main goal of replacing quartz resonators in timing applications. Aluminum nitride (AlN) has been the main contender as a piezoelectric ceramic replacement for quartz since its low-temperature sputtering process has been developed. In recent years, gallium nitride (GaN) ha...
متن کاملMicromechanical devices for intravascular drug delivery.
Microfabrication technology, more commonly applied to the manufacture of integrated circuits, can be used to build devices useful for mechanical delivery of drugs and genes. Microprobes fabricated using silicon micromachining have been used to deliver DNA into cells as an alternative to bombardment and microinjection. This idea can be extended to intravascular stents with integrated microprobes...
متن کاملMetal and polySi (Ge) micromechanical devices for high frequency applications
In the current communications market, there exists a great demand for devices, which function as passive signal processing units. High performance and small size are identified to be the bottlenecks to meet market demand in communications area[1,3]. MEMS or micromachining technology can yield small, low weight and high performance components to replace the currently used off-chip components. Th...
متن کاملscanning Probe Microscopy with Inherent Disturbance suppression Using Micromechanical Devices
Scanning probe microscopes are notoriously susceptible to disturbances, or mechanical noise, from the surrounding environment that couple to the probe–sample interaction. These disturbances include vibrations of mechanical components, piezo drift, and thermal expansion. Disturbance effects can be substantially reduced by designing a rigid microscope, incorporating effective vibration isolation,...
