With toes scrunching sand—the raw source of the semiconducting element at the center of their work—they established a new category of solid-state devices that would soon become known as “microelectromechanical systems” or “MEMS.” </p><p> Over the decades, their <a href="https://www.hh2024.org/" target="_blank"><u>Hilton Head Solid-State Sensors, Actuators &amp; Microsystems Workshop</u></a> evolved into the premier academic MEMS conference in North America, with graduate students vying for the honor of capturing one of the limited speaking slots. Many of the MEMS technologies essential to now-ubiquitous products like inkjet printers, automobile safety sensors, microphones, infrared cameras, motion sensors, ultrasound probes, medical implants, and RF filters for wireless communication debuted at the Hilton Head workshop as crude and fragile prototypes. </p><p> Nurtured by millions of dollars of investment through decades of development, these MEMS devices are now in our pockets, on our wrists, in our homes and vehicles, and even inside our bodies, sensing, actuating, and helping their host systems do more and more, while reducing power consumption and improving the accuracy of the systems they enable. </p><p> In honor of the 40th anniversary of the seminal Hilton Head Workshop, in collaboration with its nonprofit organizer the <a href="https://transducer-research-foundation.org/" target="_blank"><u>Transducer Research Foundation</u></a> , <em><em>IEEE Spectrum</em></em> presents these articles from its archives detailing the people, the breakthroughs, and the applications that powered—and are powering—the MEMS revolution. —Alissa M.

Complex technologies can take 30 or 40 years to evolve from an initial prototype to an optimized and fully featured product, and MEMS is no exception. This section looks at three MEMS technologies that have been continually engineered over decades—inkjets, ultrasound imaging, and radio frequency (RF) switches—as well as two MEMS pioneers whose dedication to commercializing MEMS technologies led to many successful products over their long careers. </div></div></div><div class="mb-2 story_teaser infinite" id="sSection_Sub_Spectrum_Collections_0_0_24_0_0_4_0_0_0_3_1_0"><div class="posts-custom posts-custom-section section-holder clearfix" data-block="section_1" data-format="posts-custom" data-source="decades-1" data-source-type="page" data-source-unique="true" data-section-id="" data-is-reordable="false" data-using-stickers="false" data-has-more="false" data-attr-v="2" data-attr-posts_id="sSection_Sub_Spectrum_Collections_0_0_24_0_0_4_0_0_0_3_1_0" data-attr-source_unique="true" data-attr-without_current="true" data-attr-layout_quality="1" data-attr-node_id="/root/blocks/block[section_sub_spectrum_collections]/abtests/abtest[1]/row/column/choose/when[page.section.url==&#39;mems-at-40&#39;]/choose[1]/otherwise/posts[1]-" data-attr-use_tag_image_for_lead_media="true" data-attr-all_element_order="all_sections,headline,subheadline,date,time_to_read,like_button,custom_field_TimeofRead,primary_tag,section,tags,community_name,badges_sponsored,body,photo_caption,snark_line,author,post_shares,follow_button,community_comments,source_link,collection_button,badges,photo_credit,main_author,page_views,date_modified,custom_field_contact-person-phone,custom_field_event-performer,custom_field_event-street-address,custom_field_job-type,custom_field_event-postal-code,custom_field_contact-person-title,custom_field_event-start,custom_field_company_name,custom_field_event-end,custom_field_hiring-organization,custom_field_event-price,custom_field_job-tags,custom_field_event-city,custom_field_contact_email,custom_field_posted-on-date,custom_field_job-title,custom_field_job-location,custom_field_event-region,custom_field_event-currency,custom_field_base-salary,custom_field_event-country,custom_field_contact_person,custom_field_expire-date,custom_field_ContentType,custom_field_CustomFieldTestEG,custom_field_Issue,custom_field_FullwidthCardColor,custom_field_FullwidthCardPosition,product_prices,product_vendor,product_buy_link,site_field_Twitter,site_field_Facebook,site_field_Instagram,site_field_LinkedIn,custom_field_PodcastTime,custom_field_Editor,custom_field_PodcastEpisode,site_field_member_badges,custom_field_due_date,custom_field_FeaturePostImgPosition,custom_field_PodcastVideoTime,custom_field_access,custom_field_publication_date,custom_field_FeaturePostColor,words_count,site_field_first_name,site_field_last_name,site_field_grade,custom_field_pdf_version,custom_field_fullwidthbackgroundposition,custom_field_lightbox_img_shortcode_ids,custom_field_disable_comments,custom_field_copy_editor,custom_field_is_updated_post,custom_field_youtube_video" data-attr-limit="1" data-attr-layout_headline="bottom" data-attr-layout_date="bottom" data-attr-layout_subheadline="bottom" data-attr-layout_all_image_crop="4x3" data-attr-data-rm-advanced="true" data-attr-layout_all_date_format="%d %b %Y" data-attr-layout_all_date_full_format="false" data-attr-element_classes="story_teaser infinite" data-attr-layout_like_button="bottom" data-attr-layout_all_sections="bottom" data-attr-load_more="button" data-attr-layout_time_to_read="bottom" data-attr-allow_crop_override="true" data-attr-source_id="decades-1" data-attr-ids="2667578405" data-attr-source="filtered" data-attr-data-rm-device-crops="true" data-attr-format="posts-custom" data-attr-source_site="parent_site"><div class="posts-wrapper clearfix"><div class="widget tag-dna-sequencing tag-inkjet-printing tag-mems tag-personalized-medicine tag-printing-technology post-section--topic/semiconductors" elid="2667578405" data-category="Semiconductors"><article elid="2667578405" data-frozen-sections="[]" class="clearfix image-article sm-mb-1 quality-HD post-2667578405"><div class="row px10"><div class="rm-col-center col sm-mb-1" style="width:100.0%;"><div class="widget__head"><a href="https://spectrum.ieee.org/inkjet-printer" aria-label="Inkjets Are for More Than Just Printing"><img role="img" type="lazy-image" alt="An illustration of a large sheet of paper with various icons on top of it.

The future, however, rarely unfolds as imagined. Instead, the road from breakthrough technology to full commercialization often takes unexpected turns. Here we dive deep into the Spectrum archives for stories about MEMS devices in their early days of development. Some stories ended the way we expected them to while others did not, and others remain in progress. </div></div></div><div class="mb-2 story_teaser infinite"

Nathanson and his colleague Robert Wickstrom built a free-standing microscopic silicon cantilever that, when driven at its mechanical resonance, acted as a radio-frequency tuner. Since then, countless MEMS have similarly leveraged the ability of crystalline silicon and other thin-film materials to efficiently generate high-frequency vibrations. Engineers have harnessed these good vibrations to build sophisticated RF tuners, high-precision clocks, microphones, microspeakers, and even precision micro-motors, including the applications described here. </div></div></div><div class="mb-2 story_teaser infinite" id="sSection_Sub_Spectrum_Collections_0_0_24_0_0_4_0_0_0_7_1_0"><div class="posts-custom posts-custom-section section-holder

If all our computers could join a network, then why not also connect mundane things, such as building HVAC systems, factory machines, and trash cans? With MEMS sensors, these everyday objects could bring eyes and ears to the network, feeding remote computers and enabling them to make more-informed decisions. Though IoT hype has since settled down, this “sensorization” of the world quietly continues in homes, through smart products like TVs, thermostats, and refrigerators, and over large geographic areas, through distributed sensing for intelligent agriculture and environmental monitoring.</div></div></div><div class="mb-2 story_teaser infinite" id="sSection_Sub_Spectrum_Collections_0_0_24_0_0_4_0_0_0_9_1_0"><div class="posts-custom posts-custom-section section-holder clearfix" data-block="section_18" data-format="posts-custom" data-source="iot-1" data-source-type="page" data-source-unique="true" data-section-id="" data-is-reordable="false" data-using-stickers="false" data-has-more="false" data-attr-v="2" data-attr-posts_id="sSection_Sub_Spectrum_Collections_0_0_24_0_0_4_0_0_0_9_1_0" data-attr-source_unique="true" data-attr-without_current="true" data-attr-layout_quality="1" data-attr-node_id="/root/blocks/block[section_sub_spectrum_collections]/abtests/abtest[1]/row/column/choose/when[page.section.url==&#39;mems-at-40&#39;]/choose[4]/otherwise/posts[1]-" data-attr-use_tag_image_for_lead_media="true" data-attr-all_element_order="all_sections,headline,subheadline,date,time_to_read,like_button,custom_field_TimeofRead,primary_tag,section,tags,community_name,badges_sponsored,body,photo_caption,snark_line,author,post_shares,follow_button,community_comments,source_link,collection_button,badges,photo_credit,main_author,page_views,date_modified,custom_field_contact-person-phone,custom_field_event-performer,custom_field_event-street-address,custom_field_job-type,custom_field_event-postal-code,custom_field_contact-person-title,custom_field_event-start,custom_field_company_name,custom_field_event-end,custom_field_hiring-organization,custom_field_event-price,custom_field_job-tags,custom_field_event-city,custom_field_contact_email,custom_field_posted-on-date,custom_field_job-title,custom_field_job-location,custom_field_event-region,custom_field_event-currency,custom_field_base-salary,custom_field_event-country,custom_field_contact_person,custom_field_expire-date,custom_field_ContentType,custom_field_CustomFieldTestEG,custom_field_Issue,custom_field_FullwidthCardColor,custom_field_FullwidthCardPosition,product_prices,product_vendor,product_buy_link,site_field_Twitter,site_field_Facebook,site_field_Instagram,site_field_LinkedIn,custom_field_PodcastTime,custom_field_Editor,custom_field_PodcastEpisode,site_field_member_badges,custom_field_due_date,custom_field_FeaturePostImgPosition,custom_field_PodcastVideoTime,custom_field_access,custom_field_publication_date,custom_field_FeaturePostColor,words_count,site_field_first_name,site_field_last_name,site_field_grade,custom_field_pdf_version,custom_field_fullwidthbackgroundposition,custom_field_lightbox_img_shortcode_ids,custom_field_disable_comments,custom_field_copy_editor,custom_field_is_updated_post,custom_field_youtube_video" data-attr-limit="1" data-attr-layout_headline="bottom" data-attr-layout_date="bottom" data-attr-layout_subheadline="bottom" data-attr-layout_all_image_crop="4x3" data-attr-data-rm-advanced="true" data-attr-layout_all_date_format="%d %b %Y" data-attr-layout_all_date_full_format="false" data-attr-element_classes="story_teaser infinite" data-attr-layout_like_button="bottom" data-attr-layout_all_sections="bottom" data-attr-load_more="button" data-attr-layout_time_to_read="bottom" data-attr-allow_crop_override="true" data-attr-source_id="iot-1" data-attr-ids="2655323774" data-attr-source="filtered" data-attr-data-rm-device-crops="true" data-attr-layout_image_column_width="33" data-attr-format="posts-custom" data-attr-source_site="parent_site"><div class="posts-wrapper clearfix"><div class="widget tag-fire-detection tag-iot tag-low-power-sensors tag-sensor-networks" elid="2655323774" data-category="Magazine"><article elid="2655323774" data-frozen-sections="[]" class="clearfix page-article sm-mb-1 quality-HD post-2655323774"><div class="row px10"><div class="rm-col-center col sm-mb-1" style="width:100.0%;"><div class="widget__head"><a href="https://spectrum.ieee.org/a-new-wildfire-watchdog" aria-label="A New Wildfire Watchdog"><img role="img" type="lazy-image" alt=" A forest with thick white smoke coming out of it.

other fields of medicine. But the potential is huge. Many of the thin-film materials used for MEMS are biocompatible, and the microscopic dimensions of the devices make them suitable for implantation within bodies, brains, and bloodstreams. And micro- or nanoscale structures can electrically interact with individual nerves, cells, and protein strands. Here we look at recent—and future—applications of MEMS technology in medical diagnostics and treatment, as researchers use the devices to improve quality of life and help us to unravel the mysteries of human biology.</div></div></div><div class="mb-2 story_teaser infinite" id="sSection_Sub_Spectrum_Collections_0_0_24_0_0_4_0_0_0_11_1_0"><div class="posts-custom posts-custom-section section-holder
