Process development of silicon-silicon carbide hybrid structures for micro-engines (January 2002)
(2002-01)MEMS-based gas turbine engines are currently under development at MIT for use as a button-sized portable power generator or micro-aircraft propulsion sources. Power densities expected for the micro-engines require very ... -
A Novel Testing Apparatus for Tribological Studies at the Small Scale
(2002-01)A novel flexure-based biaxial compression/shear apparatus has been designed, built, and utilized to conduct tribological studies of interfaces relevant to MEMS. Aspects of our new apparatus are detailed and its capabilities ... -
Methods for Calculating the Optical Band Structure of Photonic Composites
(2002-01)Lately, there has been an increasing interest in studying the propagation of electromagnetic waves in periodic dielectric structures (photonic crystals). Like the electron propagation in semiconductors, these structures ...
