Cross-listing Dept.
This course topics covered in this course include various transduction and sensing mechanisms (capacitive,
piezoelectric, piezoresistive, magnetic, and thermal), and MEMS fabrication technologies (silicon bulk and surface
micromachining, planar thin-film processing, wafer bonding, etching, and lithography). Upon completion, this course
enables students to have an in-depth understanding of many MEMS products such as accelerometers, gyroscopes,
pressure sensor, actuators, microphone and microfluidics devices. It also provides students with the knowledge of MEMS
processes and skills to design and optimize novel MEMS products for new applications.
After completing this course, the students will be able to:
1) Understand overall flow of MEMS development
2) Familiarize themselves to various MEMS devices such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, pressure sensors and etc.
3) Design basic MEMS devices
4) Understand major fabrication techniques used in the MEMS field and find proper fabrication methods for the designed
MEMS devices
5) Come up with creative ideas in using micromachining and MEMS devices in new applications
