Introduction Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are minuscule but mighty machines, typically ranging from a few micrometers to a few millimeters in size. These tiny workhorses can sense, control, and manipulate their environment at a very small scale. Researchers use them in a range of applications, from sensors to actuators to microfluidics. To ensure their reliability, these…
