Course description
This course is a general introduction to the field of MEMS(microelectromechanical systems), with emphasis on micro / nanofabrication technologies and its applications. It is designed for junior (third year) undergraduate students. This course helps students understanding essential technical background for micro / nanofabrication. Moreover, principles in MEMS devices and phenomena upon with microchips will be introduced by instructors. In addition, through this course, students can learn how to understand principles and phenomena, and build a strong knowledge base. The course is divided into two halves. The first half of the term will be taught by Prof. Ando and focus on an introduction to silicon-based MEMS. The second half of the term will be taught by Prof. Iwami and applications and case studies of MEMS devices to various fields will be introduced.
