T174 Nanotechnology
TK7870 MEMS
The related areas of MEMS (MicroElectroMechanicalSystems), nanotechnology, and micromachines represent an important emerging field of engineering. They build upon the silicon chip and its transistors to incorporate adaptive structures which will sense, act, and communicate. Such chips may then become micron-size machines with enormous functional potential in both commercial and defense systems. The market for intelligent micromachines and systems may reach $100 billion/ year in the early part of the 21st century.
