MEMS, Microfluidics and Microsystems Executive Review

MOEMS: history, current status and future trends

While MOEMS, the combination of micro-optics and MEMS, have been slowed down by the telecom downturn in the early part of this decade, these technologies are now making a comeback.  In addition to telecom, MOEMS applications include sensors, projection and mobile systems and devices. 

We recently spoke with Dr. M. Edward Motamedi who is the author and editor of a recently published MOEMS book and the founder of Revoltech Microsystems.  Dr. Motamedi is one of the top experts in the field of MOEMS and is a Fellow of SPIE.

Optical MEMS: A Brief History and Future Trends

We recently spoke with Dr. Joseph Ford about optical MEMS.  In this detailed interview,  Dr. Ford reviews the history of optical MEMS and discusses possible future trends.
