Many components used in modern products are getting smaller. Over the last three decades, features in integrated-circuit technology have been reduced in size by approximately two orders of magnitude, and micromotors as small as a human hair have been fabricated using photolithography. A similar phenomenon is occurring in the medical device industry: Implantable devices are…

-Article By David Lui Laser direct-write is a new processing technology that allows the rapid fabrication of micro devices and circuits. These micro devices and circuits find applications in a variety of areas such as microelectronics, photonics, MEMS, and MOEMS. This technology utilizes low temperature processing (200-350°C) and does not require the use of masks,…

Of all materials, diamond is harder than any known solid, while also exhibiting the highest values for elastic modulus, atomic density, Debye temperature and thermal conductivity at room temperature. Diamond is chemically inert, and is highly transparent throughout a broad range of the optical spectrum. It is a wide bandgap semiconductor that may be useful…

Many of the components used in modern products are getting smaller. Feature sizes in integrated circuit (IC) technology have been red uce d by approximately two orders of magnitude over the last three decades. Micromotors the size of a human hair have been fabricated with IC technology. Implantable medical devices such as pacemakers arc shrinking…
