and materialsselection, as well as the manufacturing of micro-products usingmechanical-based micro-manufacturing process technologies. After addressing the fundamentalsand non-metallic-based micro-manufacturing processes inthe semiconductor industry, it goes on to address specificmetallic-based micro-manufacturing processes, suchas: micro-forming, micro-machining, micro-molding, micro-laserprocessing, micro-layered manufacturing, micro-joining,micro-assembly and materials handling, and microEDM and ECM. Thebook provides an in-depth understanding of materials behavior atmicro-scales and under different micro-scale processing conditions,while also including a wide variety of emerging micro-scalemanufacturing issues and examples.
