Books in the Nano- and Microscience, Engineering, Technology and Medicine series

The technological revolution precipitated by micro- and nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS and NEMS) will change the nature of most human-made structures, devices, and systems. This book brings together the various paradigms, methods, techniques, and technologies associated with MEMS and NEMS in a presentation accessible to a broad audience.

Presents an understanding of the engineering underpinnings of integrated technology and develops a modern picture of MEMS engineering. This work emphasizes the modeling, simulation, analysis, design and implementation of high-performance mini - and microscale electromechanical systems.

Containing a survey of research across a wide range of disciplines, this book provides contemporary knowledge and understanding of the phenomena of nanometer-scale particle manipulation. It explores how electromechanics can be applied to the sorting of DNA molecules, examining viruses, and constructing electronics devices with carbon nanotubes.

Suitable for those who need to understand the physics and engineering of microdrop technology, this work contains information on the construction, operation, and fluid formulation for microdrop ejection systems.

A guide to design and analysis of nanoICs using CAD. It offers an introduction to the directions and basic methodology of logic design at the nanoscale, then proceeds to nanotechnologies and CAD, word-level and linear word-level data structures, 3-D topologies based on hypercubes and fault-tolerant computation in hypercube-like structures.
