MEMS and Microsystems III, 2005-2009 Considers Emerging Markets Such as Wafer Probes, Micro-Motors, Micro-Spectrometers, Micro-Pumps and Microreaction Products.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c28786) has announced the addition of NEXUS Market Analysis for MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) Tiny mechanical devices that are built onto semiconductor chips and are measured in micrometers. In the research labs since the 1980s, MEMS devices began to materialize as commercial products in the mid-1990s.  and Microsystems III, 2005-2009 to their offering.

NEXUS Market Analysis for MEMS and Microsystems III, 2005-2009 is a reliable resource for MEMS and Microsystems products and applications. It builds on the world renowned reputation of previous NEXUS reports covering 1998-2002 and 2000-2005. The third NEXUS report continues to describe market winning technologies and provide the kind of actionable intelligence Having the necessary information immediately available in order to deal with the situation at hand. With regard to call centers, it refers to agents having customer history and related product data available on screen before the call is taken.  that gives you a head-start in existing and new high potential opportunities - microdisplays, microphones, tire pressure monitors and RF MEMS Introduction
The MEMS acronym stands for Micro-Electromechanical System and is used to refer to components of which sub-millimeter-sized parts need to move for the components to have electronic functionality.
 -business information that will improve your margins.

In total, the report details opportunities for 26 MEMS/MST products. Chief among these are read/write heads with 51% share and microdisplays, which will overtake inkjet heads in 2009 as Texas Instruments See TI.

(company) Texas Instruments - (TI) A US electronics company.

A TI engineer, Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit in 1958. Three TI employees left the company in 1982 to start Compaq.
 forges ahead with the DLP (Digital Light Processing) A data projection technology from TI that produces clear, readable images on screens in lit rooms. DLP is used in all types of projection devices, from data projectors that weigh only a few pounds to large rear-projection TVs to electronic  chip for front projectors and rear projection TVs. Fast growing markets for microphones, RF MEMS, and tire pressure monitors are examined next to established pressure and motion sensors, which are increasingly driven by consumer applications.

Emerging markets include wafer probes, micro-motors, micro-spectrometers, micro-pumps and microreaction products. NEXUS also considers products that will begin to impact markets at the end of the decade, namely micro fuel cells, MEMS memories and e-fuses, chip coolers and liquid lenses for autofocus/zoom in camera phones. No other report offers this breadth of coverage.

Each product is described in terms of function, MST See micro systems technology.  advantage, and market opportunity up to 2009.

Important trends, e.g. technology drivers, legislatory barriers and opportunities, are identified and placed into the context of market figures. Breakouts include price targets, unit volumes, product specifications and time to market.

Applications are described and cross referenced with products to give a sector-wide overview of MEMS and Microsystems activities. Key manufacturers are identified in each sector. All assessments are validated with senior experts from leading companies including Bosch, HL Planar A technique developed by Fairchild Instruments that creates transistor sublayers by forcing chemicals under pressure into exposed areas. Planar superseded the mesa process and was a major step toward creating the chip. , Infineon, Nokia, Olivetti, Philips and Roche Diagnostics Roche Diagnostics Division is a subsidiary of Hoffmann-La Roche which manufactures equipment and reagents for research and medical diagnostic applications. Internally, it is organized into six major business areas: Roche Applied Science, Roche Centralized Diagnostics, Roche . New to this report is a regional analysis of the MEMS/MST industry.

NEXUS Market Analysis III, 2005-2009 is the result of 150 interviews and a polling of 400 MST companies.

Companies Mentioned:

--Bosch

--HL Planar

--Infineon

--Nokia

--Olivetti
