Optical Gyro + MEMS Fab: A Match Made in INS Heaven?
For the optical-cavity resonator that controls the optical pumping modes, the team used precise microfabrication to create the microresonator as a 36-mm silica wedge with free-spectral resonance of 1.808 GHz and extreme Q factor above 100 million. The resonator is packaged in a small metal box with optical-fiber connections and thermal ...Electronic Design: 2020-04-16

What is the current state of microscale 3D printing?
Microfabrication is the process of fabricating miniature structures of micrometer scales and smaller. Historically, microfabrication was first used in the electronics industry to miniaturize the size of devices. In fact, over the years, you might have noticed your electronic devices have been getting smaller and sleeker. Component sizes that ...3dnatives.com: 2020-04-16
