MOEMS: history, current status and future trends

While MOEMS, the combination of micro-optics and MEMS, have been slowed down by the telecom downturn in the early part of this decade, these technologies are now making a comeback.  In addition to telecom, MOEMS applications include sensors, projection and mobile systems and devices. 

We recently spoke with Dr. M. Edward Motamedi who is the author and editor of a recently published MOEMS book and the founder of Revoltech Microsystems.  Dr. Motamedi is one of the top experts in the field of MOEMS and is a Fellow of SPIE.
