摘要: Micromachines is a mature field today, although it usually known by other names in various parts of the world. We briefly review genesis this and how mechanisms researchers became involved. The successes are many have led to creation number commercial products. This success partly due research but more significantly rapid developments microfabrication technology. discuss influence limitations techniques on used field. Interestingly, strategies that were developed for overcoming these extended scope machines influencing technologies beyond realm micromachines. Many challenges lie ahead multi-disciplinary approaches combined with will prove be beneficial coming years.
