| Course description |
|
This course is a general introduction to the field of MEMS（microelectromechanical systems）, with an emphasis on micro/nanofabrication technologies and their applications. It is designed for junior (third-year) undergraduate students. This course helps students understand the essential technical background for micro/nanofabrication. Moreover, principles in MEMS devices and phenomena 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. This course is an elective subject in the curriculum of the M2 Course of the MSE department. class code: r4md64a |
