MEMS
Courses (SAMPLES Program)
The Sandia MEMS Introductory Short Course includes
two and one-half days of presentations and workshops.
Topics range from general — MEMS fabrication techniques
and applications — to specific — SUMMiT™
technology and design. Workshop sessions introduce participants
to device characterization and testing, design concepts,
design, and the layout and visualization tools for Sandia's
SUMMiT™ Process fabrication.
The Sandia MEMS Advanced Design Short Course equips
participants to successfully design MEMS devices to
be fabricated in the SUMMiT™ Process. The prerequisites
are completion of the Sandia MEMS Introductory Short
Course, prior use of AutoCAD™ software, and interest
in designing MEMS devices specifically for SUMMiT™
Process fabrication. The course is two and one-half
days of presentations and workshops.
The Sandia MEMS Reliability Short Course covers a wide
range of advanced topics important to those wishing
to produce reliable, working MEMS devices. In addition
to the three primary areas of design, operation, and
materials, various helpful methods of testing and analysis
are described in detail. Prior completion of the Sandia
MEMS Introductory Short Course is recommended. The course
is two and one-half days of presentations and workshops.
Microsystem
Lectures
Introduction to Microtechnologies and Microsystems
is an easy-to-understand introduction to the exciting
world of microtechnologies (microelectronics, optoelectronics,
micromachines, microsensors) and microsystems. The lecture
was created using Microsoft Producer. It is 1 hour and
20 minutes long. Please refer to the linked web page
for Producer's specific requirements.
