Title: Applications of MEMS\/NEMS and micro\/nanofabrication<\/p>\n
Abstract:<\/p>\n
This seminar will be composed of two main parts. During the first part of the seminar, we will focus on a specific MEMS device application that is\u00a0designed and manufactured for mechanical characterization of small scale test samples using tensile testing. The reasons of \u201cwhy the selected MEMS\u00a0device and micro\/nanofabrication techniques are chosen for this specific application\u201d will be emphasized. Results obtained from the experimental\u00a0setup will be explained in detail. During the second part, initially we will focus on what else may be done with the MEMS device explained in the\u00a0first part. Next, we will briefly go on with several applications that are realized at UNAM by significant contribution of the speaker, using these\u00a0novel, well understood, and generalized microfabrication, and nanofabrication techniques. Finally, we will focus on the speaker\u2019s vision\u00a0about his future academic and research career.<\/p>\n
Bio:<\/p>\n
Mehmet Yilmaz is a post-doctoral researcher at National Nanotechnology Research Center (UNAM) at Bilkent University, and \u201cReintegration Research\u00a0Program Fellow of TUBITAK\u201d. In spirit, he is a scientist, engineer, inventor, and entrepreneur.<\/p>\n
Mehmet Yilmaz received the B.S. degree (with high honors) from Izmir Institute of Technology, the M.S. degree from Koc University, and the\u00a0Ph.D. degree from Columbia University, all in mechanical engineering. After his Ph.D. degree studies, he joined IBM Microelectronics Division at Albany Nanotechnology Research and Development Center, in New York, Albany. During his M.S. and Ph.D. degree studies, he specialized in design\u00a0and microfabrication of MEMS and integration of MEMS with nanostructures. During his time at IBM Microelectronics Division, he worked on developing\u00a0reactive ion etching (RIE) processes for via patterning, and developing new integration schemes for 10nm and 7nm technology nodes. He is a\u00a0co-inventor of two US patents from the research and development efforts during his time at IBM. Mehmet Yilmaz is interested in mechanical characterization, understanding, and control of materials at small length scales, and developing new unit processes and integration processes for high yield MEMS devices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
