MEMS Materials and Processes Handbook -- a comprehensive, practical resource
Date:4/6/2011

Academic and industrial research scientists and engineers, as well as students working in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), commonly encounter a steep learning curve when developing common MEMS fabrication processes. A fundamental, comprehensive MEMS-focused reference book just published by Springer promises to be an important game-changing asset for the field.

The new MEMS Materials and Processes Handbook is an exhaustive design reference for researchers searching for new materials, properties of known materials, or specific processes available for MEMS fabrication. It will be valuable for seasoned researchers and engineers as well as students and other newcomers working in MEMS and materials processing.

The handbook is co-edited by Reza Ghodssi, Director of the Institute for Systems Research and Herbert Rabin Distinguished Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Maryland, College Park, Md.; and Pinyen Lin, Chief Technologist and Vice President of Business Development, Touch Micro-System Technology Corp. Taoyuan, Taiwan. It features 35 international contributing authors who are MEMS leaders in academic, industrial and government laboratory settings.

The handbook's content is separated into two distinct sections on materials and processes (fabrication techniques). In the materials section, the extensive "Material Selection Guide" and a "Material Database" take the reader through the selection of appropriate materials for the task at hand. The processes section of the book is organized as a catalog of microfabrication processes. Each entry contains a brief introduction to the technology, as well as examples of common uses in MEMS. The effects of processing conditions on material properties are covered where applicable, illustrating the interdependence and multidisciplinary nature of MEMS fabrication. There are also chapters on general MEMS design and MEMS process integration.
