Main description:

CMOS Biotechnology reviews the recent research and developments joining CMOS technology with biology. Written by leading researchers these chapters delve into four areas including:

• Microfluidics for electrical engineers








• CMOS Actuators








• CMOS Electrical Sensors








• CMOS Optical Sensors

Bioanalytical instruments have been miniaturized on ICs to study various biophenomena or to actuate biosystems. These bio-lab-on-IC systems utilize the IC to facilitate faster, repeatable, and standardized biological experiments at low cost with a small volume of biological sample. CMOS Biotechnology will interest electrical engineers, bioengineers, biophysicists as well as researchers in MEMS, bioMEMS, microelectronics, microfluidics, and circuits and systems.

Feature:

Features a unique hybrid approach (CMOS + Bio, CMOS + Microfluidics)

Applies CMOS outside of its traditional application areas and into fields such as biology

Provides a useful reference for the circuits, MEMS, and bioengineering communities
