Next Generation Micro/Nano Systems

The 15 peer-reviewed papers collected here together offer a plenitude of up-to-date information on "e;Next Generation Micro/Nano Systems"e;.Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).The papers are conveniently arranged into: Chapter 1: Physical, Chemical and Optical MEMS, Chapter 2: Radiofrequency MEMS, Chapter 3: Micro/Nano Fluidics.Once again the conference was broken down into 10 symposia and several focused and special sessions so the 800 papers had a little elbow room.

The symposium documented here covered physical, chemical, and optical micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS); radiofrequency MEMS; and micro and nano fluidics.

The 15 papers consider such topics as a novel plasmonic bio-sensing system based on two-dimensional gold patch arrays for linear and nonlinear regimes, micromachined devices for use in terahertz applications; creating symbiotic jewelery by developing and applying stimulus-responsive smart materials and MEMS, functional radiofrequency devices powered by MEMS technologies, and hydrogel-based microfluidic systems.
