Bridging the Gap between Microelectronics and Micromechanics Testing

Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is the process of 3D printing objects from melted plastic filament. The hot plastic exits a nozzle and fuses with the part just below, adding a layer of material to the object being formed. However, filament can only be ...

The techniques used to fabricate micromechanical structures are described. Bulk micromachining is routinely used to fabricate microstructures with critical dimensions that are precisely determined by the crystal structure of the silicon wafer, by etch-...

In recent years one could observe the advent of polytronic systems e.g., systems whose electronics are based on organic materials. The use of cheap organic materials and inexpensive technologies such as roll-to-roll fabrication and ink-jet printing ...
