Topical Sensors: Design, Fabrication and Application of Microsensors II

This session will focus on microsensors, with specific emphasis on the fabrication approaches and unique applications of the microsensors. Silicon-based MEMS fabrication technology and its potential and limitations for microsensor development will be addressed in this session. The incorporation of sensors into sensor arrays or other forms of sensor integration into microsystems are also of interest. Advances in non-planar, non-silicon based fabrication strategies, including nanotube or nanoelectrode configurations as microsensors or microdetection systems will be a focus
