Expert Details

Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS), Microfabrication

ID: 108243 Virginia, USA

Request Expert

MICROELECTROMECHANICS; MICROMACHINES; MICROELECTROMECHANICAL SYSTEMS. Expert has microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) as his primary research area. He is primarily concerned with the development of micromachines and related technologies for electronic, biomedical, and industrial applications.

MICROFABRICATION; MICROMACHINING; SILICON MICROMACHINING. Expert has had over 17 years of experience in microfabrication. This includes multiproject integrated circuit manufacture, process integration, and silicon micromachining. He is currently involved with new process technology development for microelectromechanical systems. These include thin film piezoelectric actuators and fabrication of high aspect ratio microstructures.

MEMS FABRICATION. Expert is the developer of several innovative technologies for the fabrication and application of microelectromechanical systems. These systems include micromechanical fastening systems ("micro-velcro") for joining biologic tissues; devices to inject DNA into cells; sputter deposition of piezoelectric thin films; high-aspect-ratio microstructures using anodic metal oxides; integrated MEMS using foundry supplied CMOS chips and post-processing; control of liquid bridging induced stiction using geometric tabs in released structures.
