A microchip (also called a chip, a computer chip, an integrated circuit, or IC) is a set of electronic circuits on a small flat piece of silicon. On the chip, transistors act as miniature electrical switches that can turn a current on or off.
Today, A microchip the size of your fingernail contains billions of transistors, so you can understand just how small the features on a chip have to be. Chip features are measured in nanometers. A nanometer is a millionth of a millimeter and microchips like these are used in smartphones that allow people to use the internet and have a telephone video conference.
There are several steps to manufacture integrated circuits (ICs) and it all starts with the wafer manufacturing process for silicon wafers. Microchips are made by building up layers of interconnected patterns on a silicon wafer, and Modern chips today can have up to 100 layers that need to align on top of each other with nanometer precision Intelligent photoresponsive isotropic semiconductor micromotors are developed by taking advantage of the limited penetration depth of light to induce asymmetrical surface chemical reactions.
Independent of the Brownian motion of themselves, the as-proposed isotropic micromotors are able to continuously move with both motion direction and speed just controlled by light, as well as precisely manipulate particles for nanoengineering.
Electronic circuit patterns need to be printed on a wafer, using a light-sensitive polymer. And that’s where high-precision Micromotor drives adjust the lenses and position the wafer in place. After being cut into individual dies, they are bonded and encapsulated in resin. These machines manage over 100,000 components per hour.
These Micro/Nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS) have attracted intense research interest for decades due to their promising applications across various research fields including electronics, chemical and biomedical sensing, and biochemical delivery. Such micro and nanomotors represent one of the most exciting areas of nanotechnology, offering considerable promise for a myriad of applications.
Built from micro/ nano components, they can convert rotary motion into linear motion for powering and actuation and have attracted intense attention due to their critical role in advancing NEMS technology. Where catalytically transport the captured molecules are able to autonomously move functionalized micromotors to separation or sorting applications through high-precision combinations of microfluidics in microsystems.
In the field of high-performance micromotors, they have successfully achieved uniformity in speeds and highly desired angles, resembling step motors. Taken into consideration distinct rotation behaviors including repeatable wobbling and self-rolling in addition to in-plane rotation through controlled strength and orientation.
