This comprehensive book provides an overview of the key techniques used in the fabrication of micron-scale structures in silicon. Recent advances in these techniques have made it possible to create a new generation of microsystem devices, such as microsensors, accelerometers, micropumps, and miniature robots. The authors underpin the discussion of each technique with a brief review of the fundamental physical and chemical principles involved. They pay particular attention to methods such as isotropic and anisotropic wet chemical etching, wafer bonding, reactive ion etching, and surface...

This book on mechanical microsensors is based on a course organized by the Swiss Foundation for Research in Microtechnology (FSRM) in Neuchatel, Swit zerland, and developed and taught by the authors. Support by FSRM is herewith gratefully acknowledged. This book attempts to serve two purposes. First it gives an overview on me chanical microsensors (sensors for pressure, force, acceleration, angular rate and fluid flow, realized by silicon micromachining). Second, it serves as a textbook for engineers to give them a comprehensive introduction on the basic design issues of these sensors....

The 2001 Dutch Sensor Conference held on 14 -15 May 2001, at the University of Twente in Enschede, The Netherlands, is the fourth in a series ofmeetings. The conference is initiated by the Dutch Technology Foundation (STW) in order to stimulate the industrial application ofsensor research. This MESA Monograph contains a collection oflatest research and development from all major Dutch centers ofsensor research and aspect ofsensor commercialization. Thus it provides an excellent overview ofthe state ofthe art ofDutch Sensor Technology in the new millennium. I should like to acknowledge the...
