EUROPRACTICE PORTFOLIO

 

Today’s world is all about development of miniaturized systems. Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) have revolutionized the semiconductor industry by enabling the integration of microelectronics to sensors through miniaturization. 

 

EUROPRACTICE offers MEMS fabrication services from three leading foundries. Depending on the technology, these services can be availed in the MPW mode or as a single material stack. The foundries have fabrication possibilities on different materials using various sensing and actuation mechanisms. 

 

Most people know MEMS from their application in mobile devices. However, these systems find applications in multiple domains, including space, consumer electronics, bioelectronics, medical and automotive sectors to name a few.

 

Our customers can develop a diverse range of MEMS-based devices, such as accelerometers, energy harvesters, electrostatic actuators, switches and many others, by using access to the state-of-the-art facilities for device fabrication.

EUROPRACTICE WEBINAR SERIES ON MEMS

This webinar series starts with an introduction into the world of MEMS devices. It deals with applications, case studies and challenges in the MEMS field. It also provides insights on how these challenges can be overcome by using the state-of-the-art technology service provided by EUROPRACTICE.

 

After the first introductory webinar, the other three sessions dive into different MEMS technologies available through EUROPRACTICE, such as fabrication processes of Science (former MEMSCAP), Tyndall and X-FAB.
