Stanford Microsystems Laboratory

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Stanford Microsystems Lab [1] is one of micro/nano-scale laboratories at Stanford University. It includes a wide range of projects including micromachined sensors for system monitoring and modeling, development of novel processes and devices for measuring nanoscale mechanical behavior, and the analysis, design, and control of integrated electro-mechanical systems. In the group there is a large focus on biomedical applications of nanofabricated devices with the goal of developing diagnostic tools, measurement and analysis systems, and reliable manufacture methods.
