This animation depicts the operation of a fast, efficient optical switch built by researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and their colleagues. Disclaimer: AAAS ...
The populations of flaws in individual layers of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) structures are determined and verified using a combination of specialized specimen geometry, recent probabilistic analysis, and topographic mapping. Strength distributions of notched and tensile bar specimens are analyzed assuming a single flaw population set ...
Researchers have developed a micromachine that can perform different actions. First nanomagnets in the components of the microrobots are magnetically programmed and then the various movements are controlled by magnetic fields. Such machines, which are only a few tens of micrometers across, could be used, for example, in the human body to ...
Abstract—The market for Semiconductor Intellectual Property is well served for standard process technologies but not all functions are offered in all processes. Mixing and matching high performance digital CMOS, analog components, MEMS and optical ...
SiTime, a supplier or MEMS timing, has launched a roadshow for the initial public offering of 4,300,000 shares of its common stock. The underwriters will also have a 30-day option to purchase up to 645,000 additional shares of common stock at the IPO price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The IPO price is currently expected to be ...
