MEMS technology consist of micro electronic elements actuators, sensors and mechanical structures built onto a substrate which is usually “Silicon”. They are developed using microfabrication techniques : deposition, patterning, etching.
The most common forms of MEMS production are :
Bulk micromachine, surface micromachine etc.
The benefits of this small scale integrated device brings the technology of nanometers to a vast no. of devices.
Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems, or MEMS, is a technology that in its most general form can be defined as miniaturized mechanical and electro-mechanical elements that are made using the techniques of micro fabrication. The critical physical dimensions of MEMS devices can vary from well below one micron on the lower end of the dimensional spectrum, all the way to several millimeters.
Micromachined Electro-Mechanical Systems, also called microfabricated Systems, have evoked great interest in the scientific and engineering communities. This is primarily due to several substantive advantages that MEMS offer: orders of magnitude smaller size, better performance than other solutions, possibilities for batch fabrication and cost-effective integration with electronics, virtually zero dc power consumption and potentially large reduction in power consumption, etc.
This Seminar would give an introduction to these exciting developments and the technology and design approaches for the realization of these integrated systems. It would be followed with an introduction to the design of microsensors, such as the pressure sensor and the accelerometer, which began the MEMS revolution.
A systematic approach is developed to select manufacturing Process Chains for the generic elements of a MEMS device. A database of MEMS Process Chains and their attendant process attributes is developed from the existing literature, and used to construct Process Attribute charts. The performance requirements of MEMS beams and trenches are translated into the same set of Process Attributes. This allows for a screening of the Process Chains to obtain a list of candidate manufacturing methods.
I begin with a quick introduction to MEMS technology, micron scale and show that silicon is eminently suited for micromechanical devices and therefore the possibility of integrating MEMS with VLSI electronics. Smart cell phones and wireless enabled devices are poised to become commercial engines for the next generation of MEMS, since MEMS provide not only better functionality with smaller chip area, but also alternative transceiver architectures for improved functionality, performance and reliability.
The application domains cover microsensors and actuators for physical quantities, of which MEMS for automobile & consumer electronics forms a large segment; microfabricated subsystems for communications and computer systems.
Introduction to Micro Sensors and Transducers. Application of MEMS in industries and their basic architecture. MEMS accelerometer and gyroscope explored a bit i.e. their structures and their applications.
Micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS, also written as micro-electro-mechanical, Micro Electro Mechanical or micro electronic and micro electro mechanical systems and the related micromechatronics) is the technology of microscopic devices, particularly those with moving parts. It merges at the nano-scale into nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) and nanotechnology. MEMS are also referred to as micromachines in Japan, or micro systems technology.
Micro Electromechanical systems or MEMS, represent an extraordinary technology that promises to transform whole industries and drive the next technological revolution. These devices can replace bulky actuators and sensors with micron-scale equivalent that can be produced in large quantities by fabrication processes used in integrated circuits photolithography. This reduces cost, bulk, weight and power consumption while increasing performance, production volume, and functionality by orders of magnitude. For example, one well known MEMS device is the accelerometer (it’s now being manufactured using mems low cost, small size, more reliability). Furthermore, it is clear that current MEMS products are simply precursors to greater and more pervasive applications to come, including genetic and disease testing, guidance and navigation systems, power generation, RF devices (especially for cell phone technology), weapon systems, biological and chemical agent detection, and data storage. Micro mirror based optical switches have already proven their value; several start-up companies specializing in their development have already been sold to large network companies for hundreds of millions of dollars. The promise of MEMS is increasingly capturing the attention of new and old industries alike, as more and more of their challenges are solved with MEMS.
After extensive development, todays commercial MEMS – also known as Micro System Technologies (MST), Micro Machines (MM) have proven to be more manufactural, reliable and accurate, dollar for dollar, than their conventional counterparts. However the technical hurdles to attain these accomplishments were often costly and time- consuming, and current advances in this technology introduce newer challenges still. Because this field is still in its infancy, very little data on design, manufacturing processes or liability are common or shared.
Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems, or MEMS, is a technology that in its most general form can be defined as miniaturized mechanical and electro-mechanical elements (i.e., devices and structures) that are made using the techniques of microfabrication. The critical physical dimensions of MEMS devices can vary from well below one micron on the lower end of the dimensional spectrum, all the way to several millimeters. Likewise, the types of MEMS devices can vary from relatively simple structures having no moving elements, to extremely complex electromechanical systems with multiple moving elements under the control of integrated microelectronics. The one main criterion of MEMS is that there are at least some elements having some sort of mechanical functionality whether or not these elements can move. In other words Microsystems are miniaturized integrated systems in a small package or more specifically, micro-sized components working together as a system and assembled into a package that fits on a pinhead. In the United States, these devices are referred to as microelectromechanical systems or MEMS. European countries referred to such devices as microsystems or MST. These two terms – MEMS and MST – are often used interchangeably. Microsystems are microscopic, integrated, self-aware, stand-alone products that can sense, think, communicate and act. Some systems can do all of these things, plus scavenge for power.
MEMS is a technique of combining electrical and mechanical components together on a chip. It produces a system of miniature dimensions i.e the system having thickness less than the thickness of human hair. The components are integrated on a single chip using micro fabrication technology which allows the microsystem to both sense & control the environment.

1. MEMS – Micro Electro Mechanical Systems
by
Mrs.R.Chitra,
Assistant Professor(SS),
Department of ECE,
School of Engineering,
Avinashilingam Institute, Coimbatore.
2. MEMS refers to technology that allows mechanical structures to be miniaturized and integrated with
electrical circuitry, resulting in a single physical device that is like a system, where “system” indicates that
mechanical components and electrical components are working together to implement the desired
functionality. Thus, it’s a micro (i.e., very small) electrical and mechanical system.
It is the future technology that allows microscopic devices to replicate the functionality of current large-
scale systems, or even perform tasks previously unimaginable.
MEMS is a process technology used to create tiny integrated devices or systems that combine mechanical
and electrical components.
They are fabricated using integrated circuit (IC) batch processing techniques and can range in size from a
few micrometers to millimeters.
These devices (or systems) have the ability to sense, control and actuate on the micro scale, and generate
effects on the macro scale.
3. MEMS are made up of components between 1 and 100 micrometers in size (i.e., 0.001 to 0.1 mm).
MEMS devices generally range in size from 20 micrometres to a millimetre (i.e., 0.02 to 1.0 mm).
They usually consist of a central unit i.e. an integrated circuit chip such as microprocessor that
processes data and several components that interact with the surroundings such as micro sensors.
MEMS have large surface area to volume ratio, forces produced by ambient electromagnetism (e.g.,
electrostatic charges and magnetic moments), and fluid dynamics (e.g., surface tension and
viscosity) are more important design considerations than with larger scale mechanical devices.
MEMS technology is distinguished from molecular nanotechnology or molecular electronics in that
the latter must also consider surface chemistry.
4. Let us try to understand the working of the MEMS with an example – Gyroscope
GYROSCOPE:
Gyroscopes, or gyros, are devices that measure or maintain rotational motion.
MEMS (microelectromechanical system) gyros are small, inexpensive sensors that
measure angular velocity.
The gyroscope sensor within the MEMS is tiny (between 1 to 100 micrometers, the
size of a human hair).
When the gyro is rotated, a small resonating mass is shifted as the angular velocity
changes.
This movement is converted into very low-current electrical signals that can be
amplified and read by a host microcontroller.

7. The mechanical design of even simple systems, first requires an understanding of the
mechanical behavior of the various elements used.
While the basic rules of mechanical dynamics are still followed in the miniaturized world,
many of the materials used in these structures are not well mechanically characterized.
For example, most MEMS systems use polysilicon to build mechanical structures.
Most MEMS sensors mechanical systems are designed to realize a variable capacitor.
Electronics are used to convert the variable capacitance to a variable voltage or current,
amplify, linearize, and in some cases, temperature compensate the signal. This is a
challenging task as the signals involved are very minute.
8. Very small size, mass, volume
Very low power consumption
Low cost
Easy to integrate into systems or modify
Small thermal constant
Can be highly resistant to vibration, shock and radiation
Batch fabricated in large arrays
Improved thermal expansion tolerance
Parallelism
9. The overall silicon area is generally larger.
Multi chip modules require additional assembly steps.
Yield is generally lower for multi chip modules.
Larger signals from the sensor are required to overcome the stray capacitance of the
chip to chip interconnections, and stray fields necessitating a larger sensor structure.
Larger packages are generally required to house the two-chip structure.
10. Airbag Systems
Headlight Leveling
Rollover Detection
Active Suspension
Earthquake Detection and Gas Shutoff
Accelerometers in consumer electronics devices such as game controllers, cell phones and a
number of Digital Cameras.
In PCs to park the hard disk head when free-fall is detected, to prevent damage and data loss.
Silicon pressure sensors e.g. car tire pressure sensors, and disposable blood pressure sensors.
Optical switching technology, which is, used for switching technology and alignment for data
communications.
Interferometric modulator display (IMOD) applications in consumer electronics (primarily displays
for mobile devices).
