About this book

MEMs Materials and Processes Handbook" is a comprehensive reference for researchers searching for new materials, properties of known materials, or specific processes available for MEMS fabrication. The content is separated into distinct sections on "Materials" and "Processes". The extensive Material Selection Guide" and a "Material Database" guides the reader through the selection of appropriate materials for the required task at hand. The "Processes" section of the book is organized as a catalog of various microfabrication processes, each with a brief introduction to the technology, as well as examples of common uses in MEMs.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“In this handbook, editors Ghodssi (Univ. of Maryland, College Park) and Lin (Touch Micro-system Technology, Taiwan) have essentially organized the collective knowledge of decades of MEMS research from around the world into one book. … This volume is not designed as a textbook, but instead as a reference, and is extremely useful for MEMS inventors. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, researchers/faculty, and professionals.” (N. M. Fahrenkopf, Choice, Vol. 49 (2), October, 2011)
