Aims |
At the end of the course the students will be able to:
. design MEMS including the sensor, transducer as well as associated electronics,
. use of unumerical and analytical multi-physics simulation tools for designing and optimizing the microsystem performance,
. take into account the packaging and test issues at early stage of the MEMS design

Other information |
Teaching methods:
About 8 classroom lectures will be given for providing the theroretical background. Afterwards the students will make a project in groups of 2-3 students depending on the chosen subjects related to the design of MEMS or NEMS.
Prerequisites:
Basic knowledges in electronics, solid-state physics, material science and chemistry as well as micro and nanofabrication
