Abstract

Advanced principles of integrated circuit fabrication can be applied for three-dimensional microstructures. This technology based on photofabrication is called micromachining. The micromachining makes it possible to fabricate micromachines which have sensors, actuators and electronic circuits on a silicon wafer. Microflow control systems and integrated mechanical sensors were fabricated. Micromachining and micromachines of silicon are reviewed.
