15th NID Workshop

Last Updated <Abril 1, 2019

Madrid, Spain

From 2005-01-31 to 2005-02-02

Work Plan of the NID Working Group on Nano-Electro-Mechanical Systems (NEMS)

Coordinators: Juergen Brugger (EPFL, Switzerland))

WG on NEMS Mailing List
The scope is to create a forum for those in Europe interested in the creation of new nano-electro-mechanical devices and systems. Our WG will be based on activities like seminars during the NID meeting, tutorials on a specific topic and the building of roadmaps in nanomechatronics for the information industry. The basic idea is to bring together researchers working on specific topics in the emerging field of nano-electro-mechanical systems (NEMS).

The following topics will be covered during the meeting:

Mechanics at nanoscale
Fabrication techniques for NEMS elements
Detection methods, interfacing of NEMS
Links to life-sciences
Roadmaping: opportunities, risks and barriers
