Waves, MEMS and bio-electromagnetics

提出的研究旨在开发新的器件以及设计它们的理论和数值方法。这些设备将在亚微米、微观和宏观尺度上使用，不仅将用于通信等传统技术领域，还将用于医学和生物学。令人兴奋的新型传感器将被制造出来。例如，该计划的主要推力之一是开发微型核磁共振（NMR）光谱仪。本质上是芯片上的核磁共振，该设备在微技术方面提出了终极挑战，因为它集成在一个微芯片中，MEMS， CMOS，微流体以及直流磁路，并且需要定制封装技术。该提案还将重点关注MEMS器件在射频集成电路和天线中的进一步应用。

The proposed research aims at the development of new devices and the theoretical and numerical methods to design them. The devices will be in sub-micron, micro and macro scales, and will be used in traditional areas of technology such as communications, but also in medicine and biology. Exciting new sensors will be constructed. For example, one of the main thrusts of the program in the development of a micro scale Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrometer. Essentially a NMR on a chip, this device presents ultimate challenges in micro technology, as it integrates, in one micro chip, MEMS, CMOS, microfluidics as well as DC magnetic circuitry, and requires custom packaging technology. The proposal will also focus on further use of MEMS devices in radio frequency integrated circuits and antennas.
