Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) for WDM Optical-Crossconnect Networks

MEMS (Micro-electro-mechanical systems) have shown promise for optical crossconnects in WDM networks. We will describe various MEMS optical-switching technologies, their successes in implementing important optical-networking functionalities, and future perspectives.

Automated Design Synthesis for Micro-electro-mechanical Systems (mems)

This paper proposes a general architecture for using evolutionary algorithms to achieve MEMS design synthesis. Functional MEMS devices are designed by combining parameterized basic MEMS building blocks together using Multi-objective Genetic Algorithms (MOGAs) to produce a pareto optimal set of feasible designs. The iterative design synthesis loop is implemented by combining MOGAs with the SUGAR...

Triangle Transducer for Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) Simulation in ANSYS Finite Element Program

The paper introduces a new methodology with a distributed triangle transducer for the strongly coupled simulation of micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) in ANSYS Finite Element (FE) program.

Ink-Jet Printing of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS)

Beyond printing text on paper, inkjet printing methods have recently been applied to print passive electrical and optical microparts, such as conductors, resistors, solder bumps and polymeric micro lenses. They are also useful to print micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) as sub-millimeter sensor and actuator arrays, such as multifunctional skins applicable to robotic application and ambient...
