Synopsis

Electronic composites, whose properties can be controlled by thermal or electromagnetic means, play an important role in micro- and nano- electromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS) such as sensors, actuators, filters, and switches. This book describes the processing, simulation, and applications of electronic composites. Aimed at graduate students of electrical engineering and materials science, it will also be a useful reference for researchers and engineers in the MEMS industry.
