Welcome to Bio-Mems. MEMS technology can be implemented using a number of different materials and manufacturing techniques; the choice of which will depend on the device being created and the market sector in which it has to operate. Bio-MEMS applications in medical and health related technologies from Lab-On-Chip to Micro Total Analysis.
Microelectromechanical systems is the technology of the very small, and merges at the nano-scale into nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) and nanotechnology. MEMS are also referred to as micromachines. MEMS are separate and distinct from the hypothetical vision of molecular nanotechnology or molecular electronics. MEMS are made up of components between 1 to 100 micrometres in size (i.e. 0.001 to 0.1 mm) and MEMS devices generally range in size from 20 micrometres (20 millionths of a metre) to a millimetre. They usually consist of a central unit that processes data, the microprocessor and several components that interact with the outside such as microsensors.
Bio-mems is the integration of the physical and the biological worlds, at the smallest of possible scales. Thank you for visiting Bio-MEMS.com.
