We would like to invite you to participate in the session of Track 13-6 Micro and Nano Devices at the 2016 ASME IMECE, November 11-17, 2016 in Phoenix, Arizona.

Micro and Nano Systems (MEMS and NEMS) include miniature devices or an array of devices combining electrical, mechanical, optical, chemical and/or biological components fabricated via integrated circuit or other similar manufacturing techniques. These are, by their very nature, multidisciplinary fields, where innovative concepts in transducers, sensors, actuators and instruments can be developed in a diverse array of disciplines that includes physics, engineering, medicine, and biology. Research, insight and then applications will shape the basis for the creation of technologies that will impact areas as diverse as computing, information technology, biomedical technology along with energy, transportation, manufacturing, deep space studies, and national security.

The topic includes:

  • Fabrication and Integration of Micro/Nano Devices: The focus of these sessions is on methods or the optimization of such, both applied and theoretical, as well as development of instruments and systems which relate to the fabrication and integration of micro/nano devices. Thus, the topic is about fabrication and integration in building system level devices. Detail topics of interest may include:
    • Microfluidic devices with integrated sensing ability
    • Nanostructures integration into systems
    • Lithography for polymer-based structures to build systems
    • Designing and fabricating innovative MEMS and NEMS based devices that can characterize nanowires, nanotubes, and graphene sheets.
    • Microassembly encompassing robotic pick-and-place, fluidic assembly, self-assembly, transfer printing using polymeric stamps, and novel interconnections of micro assembled devices to build systems
  • Modeling and Experimental Analysis of Micro/Nano Sensors and Devices: The work in these sessions addresses modeling and analysis issues/challenges as well as optimization schemes pertaining to the design and realization of micro/nano sensors and devices. Topics of interest include finite element techniques, efficient numerical approaches, and novel design optimization strategies which factor in the geometric considerations as well as other important design aspects.
  • Control and Dynamics of Micro/Nano Sensors and Devices: These sessions include issues relevant to control of dynamic micro and nano systems. Topics of interest include dynamics of MEMS, dynamic considerations in design, modeling and model validation, measurement techniques, device characterization and system identification, novel control strategies.
  • Physical and Chemical Micro/Nano Sensors: These sessions emphasize the design, development, and application, both physical and chemical, of micro/nano sensors. Theoretical and applied work encompasses, for example, the following: capacitive strain sensors, accelerometers, microcantilevers, as well as novel semiconductor-based microfluidic sensors and systems.
