Silicon Micromachining

Silicon micromachining is a technological process that uses techniques from semiconductor manufacturing to create tiny, precise structures and devices on silicon wafers. It involves methods like photolithography, etching, and layer deposition to shape and manipulate silicon at microscopic scales. This process enables the production of small sensors, actuators, and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) used in electronics, medical devices, automotive systems, and more. Silicon micromachining combines precision engineering with semiconductor technology, allowing for the creation of highly accurate, reliable micro-scale components that can perform complex functions in various advanced applications.
