Dr. Gorecki
Alot of the information you are looking for either does not exist, is in the
embrio stage of research, or is based on a specific component's data (for
example the accelerometer). Most research being done is on the developing of
prototype systems not exactly on the reliability of the item. Most that I have
talked to say they want to get the design of concept developed first then they
will work on the reliability and producability of the item. This is common with
new cutting edge technology.
There are very few places that I know of that are doing research on MEMS
reliability in a semi-general basis. Sandia National Laboratory is probably
doing the most work at this time. They are in the embrionic stages of research
though. Their web page for MEMS Reliability is:
http://www.mdl.sandia.gov/Micromachine/tour.reliability.html
I would start there and maybe even get intouch with personnel. They are also
planning a MEMS Reliability Short Course in the neart future that might be
usefull.

Dear MEMS collegues:
I research the bibliography concerning a general characterisation of
MEMS reliability (parameters to measure/measuring techniques) based on
1. Improving of the design
2. Diagnostics during the manufacturing:
3. Diagnostics during the use.
Does anyone know the publications or web adresses to extract these
informations ?
Thank you very match;
Best regards
C. Gorecki
