Paul A.M. Dirac, an English physicist famous for his work in quantum mechanics, once stated “Pick a flower on Earth and you move the farthest star.” This statement may be […]
Introduction Genetic algorithms belong to a family of algorithms called “stochastic algorithms”. These algorithms are used to find the optimal solution to a mathematically difficult real-world problem, such as the […]
In a previous blog post published in September 2020, I stated that MEMS microphone demand is being driven by customer-requested audio features such as stereo sound, voice recognition, sound directivity, […]
Transducers 2021 is a prestigious international conference that reviews advances in Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems. At this year’s conference, there were 391 papers presented from 29 different countries with […]
There are a wide range of promising applications for RF MEMS switches, including use in tunable filters, antennas, tactile radio, and RF ID [1]. Why it is so difficult to […]
Micro-Electrical-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) based inertial sensors are used measure acceleration and rotation rate. These sensors are integrated into units to measure motion, direction, acceleration or position, and can be found […]
Guest Author: Jérôme Juillard, Ph.D., Professor, CentraleSupélec (Paris-Saclay University) Every year, I teach different aspects of sensors and MEMS design to about a hundred students. The pupils range from first […]
