Photonic MEMS: Vibration at the nano-scale (a)
Here we see how an electrical field applied by light can compress material to excite mechanical vibration. We replace metal electrodes with the electrical field that light applies to create a train of virtual electrodes that are almost exactly 250 nm apart. These virtual electrodes act collectivity to excite a mechanical mode, illustrated above, that [...]

The first MEMS micro motor experiment in Thailand (Pittaya Deekla SUT-SLRI on 07-Nov-2009)
This video shows the first micro motor experiment in Thailand performed on Saturday 7 th November 2009. This electrostatically driven micro motor had a rotor with a diameter of 0.88 millimeters. It consisted of 8 poles driven by 12 stator poles. It was fabricated by synchrotron x-ray lithography technique at micromachining lab, the Synchrotron Light [...]

The smallest image of Barack Obama ever made
The video explains how the smallest image (to date…) of Barack Obama was made. It is about 8µm in width which is about 1/10 of the diameter of a human hair. It was milled on a silicon piece. It was made in Ottawa, Canada with an NVision, the dual column microscope from Carl Zeiss. The [...]
