Note:  Nano- and micro- electro-mechanical systems  (MEMS  and nano-micromachining ( BULK) technology, in addition to  LIGA-like and LIGA (high-aspect ratio)  technologies , are the most developed manufacturing methods.

In the internal structure  of (nano- and micro- electro-mechanical  MEMS systems,  silicon  is the primary substrate material  used in the nano-microelectronics industry. A crystal mold (  a solid cylinder 300nm in diameter and 100nm in length) of  silicon with a very high purity is crystallized and  cut to the desired thickness, and then polished using  mechanical and chemical polishing technologies  . The properties of the electromagnetic and mechanical plates  are the direction and location of crystal crystallization and  its expected impurities. 




Nano- and Micro- Electro-Mechanical Systems  (MEMS  and Nano-Micro technology  is a technological process based on nanoelectronics that  is used  to create very small integrated systems and devices  that are composed of electrical and mechanical elements. They are fabricated using  single-step processing techniques and in sizes ranging from less than  micrometers to millimeters. These  devices or systems have the ability to sense, control, and actuate  down to the microscale and even on  macroscales. Reality  MEMS and nano-micro technology   is used to design, engineer, manufacture and  operate  a wide range of specialized parts including ICs  .  Manufacturing consumer and industrial products (by combining  micromechanical technology and silicon microelectronics  ) The techniques used  have a dramatic impact on our lives. If fabrication  is also the microfabrication of semiconductors. MEMS and nano-micro technology   is a fabrication technology, a paradigm  for designing and realizing  complex mechanical systems and devices as well as their integrated electronics  using single-step fabrication techniques MEMS fabrication techniques   enable  components and devices to be manufactured with increased efficiency and capability  , with the usual advantages of reducing  physical size, volume, weight, and cost, and providing a basis  for manufacturing products not possible by  other methods.  The intrinsic order of  MEMS technology  and  its micromachining techniques, as well as the  diversity of its applications, have led to the unprecedented limitation of  MEMS devices  in  previously untapped fields (e.g.,  biology and microelectronics). These factors  make MEMS  far  more pervasive than IC microchip technology .



Conclusion: 

MEMS and nanotechnology - Micromachining of the surface and bulk (BULK), plus  high-aspect ratio (LIGA-like and LIGA)  technologies are the most developed fabrication methods.
