Microelectronic solutions for digital photography

Introduction

This unit demonstrates how matter can be manipulated at the atomic and molecular scale to serve the engineering needs of society for ever-smaller systems acting as intelligent monitors, controllers and micro-environments. The unit will teach you about the directions in which micro and nano technologies are being advanced, particularly in the field of electronic/optical devices.
