Novel Evolutionary Design Method Optimizes Performance of MEMS Pressure Sensor

A research team led by Prof. WANG Junbo from the State Key Laboratory of Transducer Technology with the Aerospace Information Research Institute (AIR), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) introduced a novel simulation-based evolutionary method for the design of parameter-free MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) structures. This innovative approach aims to maximize the degrees of freedom in MEMS design, opening the door to more efficient and adaptable microscale structures.
