About Us
Nanoelectronics and MEMS Laboratory
Nanoelectronics and MEMS Laboratory was established under the National Electronics and Computer Technology Center (NECTEC). The main objectives are to induce dynamics in R&D and applications of Micro-Electro- Mechanical Systems (MEMS) including nanotechnology in order to support technology development and adoption in electronics such as nanosensor, Lab-on-a-chip, microfabrication, and MEMS devices. This is achieved through establishing research programs, which include funding and program management, as well as establishing central research laboratory in collaboration with universities and other government agencies.
Mission
To research and develop Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) and nanoelectronics technology by focusing on innovative research and being a central laboratory also providing both domestic and international linkage between research communities, academic organizations, and industries through the established clusters. To transfer technology acquiring from research and development through academic communities and industries To coordinate and facilitate strategic collaboration and linkage between various research units, educational institutions, industrial sector and related international institutions. To create human resource in related field by co-advising Master and Ph.D. student with local universities and being the central point of learning and training in MEMS. To plan and execute the national technology roadmap (TRM) of MEMS and nanoe! lectroni cs.
Strategy
To be a domestic core center for designing and fabricating nanoelectronics and MEMS devices to leverage the competitiveness of nation. To support and cluster-based fund the MEMS and nanoelectronics research collaboration within Thailand . To incubate the collaboration among universities, research lab and private sector to achieve the MEMS commercial product in market.
R&D Strategic Direction
To be a design center and open laboratory for i) microfabrication and post-processing step eg. Basic photolithography, etching, and packaging ii) Test and characterization eg. Micro system analyzer. To be a coordinator of R&D cluster or program on MEMS and nanoelectronics research eg. Smart and wireless microsensor network, Lab-on-a-chip, portable electronic nose.
