As miniaturization, batch fabrication, and integrated electronics rapidly enable the development of a broad range of smart products, MEMs, MOEMS, and NEMS are creating enormous opportunities for commerce and functionality. This significant and uniquely comprehensive five-volume reference is a valuable source for research workers, practitioners, computer scientists, students, and technologists. The MEMS/NEMS HANDBOOK (Microelectromechanical Systems/Nanoelectromechanical Systems) covers all of the major topics within the subject including design methods, fabrication techniques, manufacturing methods, sensors and actuators, and Micro Optical Electro Mechanical Systems. The many applications of MEMS technology include computer devices, electronics, instrumentation, industrial process control, biotechnology, medicine, chemical systems, office equipment, and communications. More than 100 coauthors from nearly 20 countries present clearly written, self-contained, accessible and comprehensive contributions with helpful standard features including an introduction, summary, extensive figures and design examples with comprehensive reference lists. The remarkable breadth and depth of the topics spanning this diverse field require the 5-volume extent of this notable reference resource that is based on the work of an internationally recognized board of coauthors.
Micro-Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) is the integration of mechanical elements, sensors, actuators, and electronics on a common silicon substrate. While the electronics are fabricated using integrated circuit (IC) process sequences (e.g., CMOS, Bipolar, or BICMOS processes), the micromechanical components are fabricated using compatible micromachining processes that selectively etch away parts of the silicon wafer or add new structural layers to form the mechanical and electromechanical devices. MEMS promises to revolutionize nearly every product category by bringing together silicon-based microelectronics with micromachining technology, thereby, making possible the realization of complete systems-on-a-chip.
Microelectromechanic systems will revolutionize the design of electronics products and enable the creation of entirely new product categories. Through miniaturization, batch fabrication, and integration with electronics, this technology will enable the development of smart products by providing the required interface between the available computational power and physical world through the perception and control capabilities of micro devices or systems (e.g., microsensors and microactuators). Micromechanical devices and systems are inherently smaller, lighter and faster than their macroscopic counterparts, and in many cases are also more precise. MEMS devices are emerging as a product differentiators in numerous markets. MEMS technology is expected to have enormous opportunities in the commercial markets due to the low-cost, high functionality, and small size and weight of the devices. MEMS technology allows much more functionality to be placed within a given space than conventional technologies.
A special class of MEMS is optical MEMS technology, also referred to as MOEMS (Micro Optical Mechanical Systems). MOEMS have become increasingly important in the development of manynetworks, telecommunications and optical systems. Potential MOEMS applications include optical data storage, optical sensors, bead mounted displays and projection systems. State-of-the-art devices include torsional mirrors, digital micromirror devices, laser scanners, optical shutters, microooptical switches, and micromachined corner cube reflectors.
Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) are MEMS scaled to submicrometer dimensions, to exploit the mechanical degree of freedom on the nanometer scale. In this size regime, it is possible to attain extremely high fundamental frequencies while simultaneously preserving high mechanical responsivity. This combination of attributes translates directly into high force sensitivity, operability at ultra-low power, and the ability to induce non-linearity with very modest control forces, leading to potential payoffs in a diverse range of fields from medicine to biotechnology.
The MEMS/NEMS HANDBOOK consists of five volumes and will provide a significant and uniquely comprehensive reference source for research workers, practitioners, computer scientists, students, technologists and others on the international scene for years to come:
(1) MEMS/NEMS Design Methods in MEMS/NEMS
(2) Fabrication Techniques in MEMS/NEMS
(3) Manufacturing Methods
(4) Sensors & Actuators
(5) Medical Applications and MOEMS
This landmark work features contributions from more than 100 of the world's foremost authorities on the key technologies and the greatly significant application areas of MEMS/NEMS. The contributors come from industry, government and academia.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE RIGHT OF CANCELLATION
Statutory Right to cancel
You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us, Romtrade Corp., 39137 BYERS DR., 48310, STERLING HEIGHTS, Michigan, U.S.A., +1 586-977-9198, of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You may use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
Effects of cancellation
If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us or Romtrade Corp., 39137 BYERS DR., 48310, STERLING HEIGHTS, Michigan, U.S.A., +1 586-977-9198, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us.
