Comprehensive Microsystems , is a new 3-volume reference work on Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS). The microsystems field has expanded to embrace a host of technologies, and microelectronics has now been joined by micro-mechanics, micro-fluidics and micro-optics to allow the fabrication of complex, multi- functional integrated microsystems. At over 2000 pages, Comprehensive Microsystems represents the authoritative primary reference source on microsystems. It addresses the need for an overview of the technologies and capabilities available in this highly interdisciplinary and dynamically-growing engineering field.
Comprehensive Microsystems , provides an exhaustive overview of the wide range of topics which comprise the microsystems field, including, design and materials, fabrication and packaging, optical systems, chemical and biological systems, physical sensors, actuation, electronics for MEMS and industrial applications. Every article in the work has been commissioned by a panel of internationally recognized editors and written by an acknowledged expert in any one of a variety of disciplines. The articles provide a concise overview of a particular aspect of the microsystems field and are accompanied by extensive bibliographies, cross-referencing and indexes, enhancing the value of the text. by guiding the user to the most relevant further reading within the ever-expanding available literature. Much care has been given to avoid overlap and to provide consistency in style and contents.
The first and foremost comprehensive reference on Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS)
Unifies established research from recognized sources in an easily accessible format
Provides an essential reference source for both academics and professionals in the field

"Comprehensive Microsystems provides in-depth description of foundations and applications of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). This book brings an understanding of materials, fabrications, packaging, devices and electronics demanded for designing microsystems to a whole range of interested researchers not only in materials, electronics, mechanical and chemical engineering, but also working in MEMS related medical, automotive, telecoms and consumer electronic fields. In short any researcher requiring a comprehensive overview in their specific areas.
Microsystems have taken on important roles of industrial applications such as automobiles and inkjet printer. Thank to MEMS technologies, today's inkjet printers make it easy to output photo-quality images at high speeds. Microsystem market has grown up rapidly over the past twenty years and created new fields such as microchemical systems and biological systems. Several international conferences and related journals have been created. However, it becomes difficult for researchers to obtain an overview of technologies according to expanding disciplinary regions and segmentations of applications. The book provides us with both expertise and interdisciplinary subjects including emerging technologies. It is very important for researchers, who start to work on microsystems, to create innovative technologies and new fields. Extensive bibliographies of the book guide them to obtain information regarding historical backgrounds.
I recommend the book to all researchers and engineers working on microsystems and also to people having interests in the business side of microsystems." --Takayuki Yagi, Senior General Manager, Chief of Canon Research Center, Canon Inc.
"This book, with its comprehensive coverage of MEMS technology and application, provides easy access to the knowledge accumulated so far and satisfies the needs of researchers and engineers who engage in both technological and applied development of micro systems." --Professor Hiroyuki Fujita from the Institute of Industrial Science at the University of Tokyo
